| LePetitPrince, you need to be part of a community that doesn't do that. Or at least one that doesn't force you to be around or involved in anything or anyone that does that. Like this autistic community. I wish we had a commune. Ana, with all my respect, Utopia doesn't exist. Utopia can not exist w... |

| No. I suspect that you will be tasked with his training. Depending on how you handle it, you can set him up for embarrassment or for becoming your next supervisor. For the former, give him the "official" training in writing, and direct him to study it on his own, while deliberately giving him verba... |

| I don't try to force my opinions on others. However, stating my opinions and the facts to back them up is often seen as being forceful. It also seems that doing it twice is arrogance, three times is insulting, four times is belligerence, and five or more times is an attack. If people can not handle ... |

| I prefer art that is conducive to serenity. It's bad enough that news, traffic, and work get my nerves all jangled up without having to deal with rap, hip-hop, metal, screamo, and other types of cacaphony. For visual art, I prefer both impressionist and realist landscapes of rural and wilderness sce... |
