Jonathan Winters

                     I believe   hes left

    Left?

Jah

         Winters left

Is dead.

Left   Dead

                   Jah

Why don’t you say he’s . . . died?

Ended

    Quizzical.

Isn’t death an end?

 

I don know

                  I wouldnt bet on it

Improbable

Not impossible

Hence

            Winters left

 

Sixteen months later Robin Williams left on the same eleventh of the month

                                                                                Winters Williams idol entered the fourth season of Mork an Mindy as Mearth   perhaps Mirth Mork an Mindys child begat from Morks egg

Birth  Death

Enter  Exit  Left

                      Elvis has left the building

To parts unknown

    I like left

I intend to leave

You gonna die

Semantics.

I don know

               If recalled    Returning after leaving sounds easier than coming back from the dead

Left  Tentative

Dead  Thousandtative

Now you’re being ridiculous.

Which is fine

                 I get tha more often than ya know

You might remember I told ya I was the kid sitting in the front row of the classroom who always raised their hand to ask the stupid question   Because  I knew behind me there were kids who were too embarrassed to raise their hands

Didnt want to be thought a fuckinidiot fuckinimbecile fuckinmoron  IQed ground up

                                                                                            To me

I helpem out youre welcome

    Helps when ya don care wha people think of you

I had tha down pat

I . . I don’t know what to say.

    Tacenda

                 Not saying woud have said it

Left or dead

Compelling argument.

                            Can I think about it and get back to you?

A meme

You understand why were at cross purposes

I understand you refuse to learnknow what a meme is.

Good

           Then we can quitrather you can quit with memes

Saveem for yourself

Don bother tryin to share with me

                                        Zip interest

But they’re fun.

You like to be entertained to socialise

                                           Keep memes to those people

Its not an axiom

                  Anchoring a logical system to build valid proofs theorems     Is it

    No.  It isn’t.

                      What do you mean you don’t prefer entertainment?

You do

I do, what?

Given your predilection to rumourbeing entertained Id assesspresume your news sources are readily understood infotainment   while on the other hand I take in hard news sourcescoudnt give a fuck wha talkin heads women look like

Fiveten minute segments

Those I listen to are an hour hourthirty

                                             Deep dives not skittering overacross the surface

You’re suggestin . .

. . No  You do not understand topics to the depth I do

                                                         Researcher baby  You tagged me researcher

Youve no interest in breadth or depth

    Antheres nothing wrong with tha

What?  I’m supposed to be grateful for that?

No

      Just keep your memes to yourself   Were culture divergent

thought to himself fuckin nonsense

                                          respondedtexted  :  :  criteria of friendship – honesty – unafraid to speak your mind, fearful of ruffling feathers . . . otherwise . . . cosplaying . . . You’re my buddy

  :  :  As my dad wisely told me… choose your battles

  :  :  Battles?  Conversation.  Your dad would be against honesty as a basic premise for friendship?

  :  :  Of course not… he would advise against unnecessary conflict with little chance of reward… he understood ROI (return of investment)

   :  :  ROI?  obfuscation

You could have had your friends explain to you the error of your ways

  :  :  Whereof… Thereof…

I interact with who I choose to and understand how to handle these social interactions.

 

his dad wisely told him choose your battles  wondered when boyohboybuddyboys wisdom woud kick in rather than deferring to wha his dad told him as a boy

it wasnt necessarily stunning advise

 

   trouble

                 he wasnt a battler slips an slides anwha hes learned about him during their friendship  he gave him no quarter hes learned buddyboy did not call on his own experiences

he preferred crowdsourcing than to make up his mind it as his singular counsel

                                                                                      obviously socialised in this manner

    manner  manners

                                 he was grateful growingup in Chicago was to comeup feral

 

She was heavin

boyohboy Heaving. What’s that?

Don know heavin

was grateful he didnt repeat himself

                             no feral sense

made sense

AI Slop: The Novel

                        I wonder how many are out there but their assemblers werent honest

You think you can tell the difference?

A novel  Definitely

                      If shorter a blurb pitching a novel   Maybe not

Why do you think you can?

Authenticity

                Understand wha is genuine wha is the real deal

My daughter an I are playing a game she has an AI Assistant for work

I’m trying to wrap my head around why I like you as much as I do.

                                                                           I shouldn’t.

You’re offputting. Crass.
