mouth breather

Some people suck. Their opinions suck and they keep on opining anyway. They have their mouth open every time you see them.


















Seems frame 2 disappeared. Eh, it's not much. It's a purple straw that goes straight up and turns orange in pulses suggesting someone is sucking it. I saw this on Ace.

I don't even listen anymore. 

I see the items and don't even read them anymore.

Breaching or breaking the fourth wall I think they call it when a fictional character becomes self-referential.

An allusion to the "three walls" of a standard proscenium stage, if I'm not mistaken.

There must be a term for when a work of fiction makes an allusion to some noteworthy aspect of the actor in real life, but I don't know what it is.

I was a junior in high school when my English teacher assigned me to write a paper on Luigi Pirandello and Five Characters in Search of an Author.

He had me pegged as some kind of prodigy-in-the-rough whose lackluster academic performance was the result of insufficient intellectual challenge.

He handed me a list of the requirements for the writing assignment and he confided to me like we were the only two people in the classroom, "I think you're up to this."

About that he was very much mistaken.

Hey! Guess what!

It's six characters, not five.

No wonder I got an incomplete!

I cannot believe Vox is still in business. It did take years till the money stopped flowing to Tina Brown, but she apparently must have given great head to whoever was supplying it.

I am going to guess Erza and Matty don't have that talent (although they would probably be more than willing to do so).

Oh those sneaky English teachers. It was a trick question ,Bat. Pirandello wrote in Italian.

Dadgummit, the juice cup and fun straw disappeared. I had to put it back.

"one of those guys who show their top teeth when they open their mouth."

I'm one of those guys. Unlike Tom Cruise I don't think it aids the overall aesthetic of my smile or talking.

I just realized that's an insecurity that I've never told anyone before, not even my beloved wife.

Such an atmosphere of vulnerability.
