wicked said courses
But of course, there's no rest for the wicked, which I certainly am; as I said, no rest for the wicked.
hands logic teach
Life teaches us that human thought almost never walks hand in hand with logic, and it is usually counterproductive to raise the point.
stupid perfect long
I had become a perfect fake human, saying the stupid and pointless things that humans say to each other all day long.
guilty enjoyable
I really am guilty, of many somethings, all of them lethal and very enjoyable and technically not quite legal.
sympathy synthetic genuine
I nodded with genuine synthetic sympathy.
skills people desire
When faced with people who have very limited conversational skills and no apparent desire to cultivate any it's always easier to simply go along.
girl sex practice
It’s an odd term, 'girlfriend,' particularly for grown persons. And in practice it provides an even odder concept. Generally speaking, in adults it described a woman, not a girl, who was willing to provide sex, not friendship. In fact, from what I had observed it was quite possible for one to actively dislike one’s girlfriend, although of course true hatred is reserved for marriage.
fun brain wanted
This was just no fun. I wanted my brain back.
coffee thinking views
A reasonable being might think that he and I could find some common ground; have a cup of coffee and compare our Passengers, exchange trade talk and chitchat about dismemberment techniques. But no: Doakes wanted me dead. And I found it difficult to share his point of view.
paris long-ago france
For my part, my interest in Paris had faded away completely long ago when I learned that it was in France.
laughing people logic
Our universe is ruled by random whim, inhabited by people who laugh at logic.
expectations too-much stood-up
I stood up. It was all too much. I could not even meet my own expectations, and to be asked to deal with all theirs too was suffocating.
insanity accepting easier
Was insanity really easier to accept than unconsciousness?
sheep wonderful used
Money to me had always been merely something the sheep used to show each other how wonderful they were.
