Return to Neverland
Blather August 19th, 2005I was thinking this morning that when you’re a kid, you have imaginary friends. But as you grow up, you figure out how to disagree. So that by the time you are an adult, instead of having imaginary friends, you have imaginary enemies. Take blogging. I argue with people I’ve never met - they can’t really exist, who would say such idiotic things? - they’re all just a part of this.. internet thingamabob that makes up words that I hate. And here I thought that I had lost all my imaginary friends, driven them all away with my petulance - but I’ve realized, with great gratitude, that they went into the internet! All my old imaginary friends turned into enemies! Here they are, me disagreeing with them all the time!
