What's disgusting you today?

is it:

a) insincerity of people who pretend to be someone they're plainly not

b) gullibility of people that react to flagrant dishonesty as if it were legitimate

c) transparently manipulative niceties and platitudes

Whatsamatter, LJ? Someone refuse to buy the undercoating, or were you watching the OJ trial on court tv?

I agree or possibly disagree depending on WTF you're talking about.

Edited to add: I don't read every thread, so if this should be obvious - just point me in the right direction.

I'm not disgusted, but I'm curious too. Something specific or a general malaise?

Hmmm... hope things cheer up for you, LJ. Sounds like you got something pretty big bugging you (Yes, I do moonlight as Capt. Obvious). You know, it takes 47 muscles to frown, but only FOUR to reach out and smack some motherf*cker upside the head!

b) The average, stereotypical customer (not always right, but always the customer)

c) Ejecta from the pieholes of either a) or b)
