Hadn't noticed the spelling m'dear....just shows how lost to reason I have become over the last year or so. I really should copy edit or spell check, it's just I dislike some of the American spellings the LJ spellcheck prefers. 'Coming out with it' is only alright if the girl concerned means it: if she just wants to get a few admirers jumping through hoops for her and lessening her workload....I mean, how else do rich attractive young women get things done? Exploitation is such a blunt word, as is delegation. Young men just seem to want to do things for this lass. I find it all hugely amusing; and even funnier when she tries such tactics on me. I think I unnerved her though: she's already described me as clever. We know what this means. However, she does have an ex she wishes to annoy, so the flirtatiousness may mask some inner turmoil, or such revelation may merely be another weapon in the armoury of the normal young woman of a certain kind today. The young are quite wonderful in so many respects: if only they could discipline themselves they'd be something to be reckoned with; outside of the outbursts of thuggishness and murder that seems to occupy their collective time; and wherein the innocent get caught in the crossfire. Collectively, the young provide a better spectacle than the Colosseum: murder, mayhem, ignorance, and prejudice. Lock 'em up on principle and only let 'em out when they've passed the proper tests and have given much evidence of good behaviour. And they should all be on parole until sometime in their thirties. Perhaps I exaggerate.
