Love

"If you wish to be loved,

show more of your faults than your virtues."

- Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

 

Him:  I just realized that you are totally going to love Nebraska ... (the film, I don't know how you'll feel about the state)

Me:  I figured I would. (The film ... not the state.)
 
Him:  I mean, it's about a crotchety, near-senile old man who bothers people. Right up your alley!
 
Me:  I'm not following you ... Jerk ...
 
Him:  Not following? That's probably the near-senile part kicking in ...
 
Me:  Perhaps you didn't see the "jerk" in the response above ... said lovingly ...

.......... Ruprecht ( won't STOP being crotchety no matter what anyone thinks )

If you wish to be loved, show more of your faults than your virtues.
