I'll tell you who seems nice.

[Sir C]

Are you not Irish this week?

Not today, sw. I can't speak for tomorrow, mind.

One can be nationalityfluid just as one can be genderfluid, you know.

[Sir C]

I'm only quoted it because it encapsulates what a vague and woolly word 'nice' actually is. It means everything and nothing.

I'm not ascribing just one characteristic to someone. Indeed, the reverse if anything. I don't think niceness is what we look for in people. We like an edge to people just as we like salt or sour as well as sweet. I would never, for instance, describe you as 'nice'. You are enormously kind and generous and courteous, but you - and this is crucial - also have far too much of the cünt for me ever to describe you as 'nice'.* And that's as it should be.


*This is a compliment

I am immensely grateful for those kind words, which I reciprocate to the last syllable, and quite agree with your thrust; however, and this is the crucial part, if we were all nice, we wouldn't be drawn to these darker characteristics of which you speak so eloquently, and, without them, things would just be... nice.

I thought he was Dutch?

IAHYK.

I am actually a citizen of the world.

Oh, things. Well things being nice would be nice, I suppose. But whaddayagonnado?
