Geek Acts

"People come to the geek act so they can look on the outside of a man like me and not look at the inside of themselves."

Purple Cain Road   James Lee Burke

I love this Burke dude. Read a couple of his books now and he has lots of observations like this that are direct hits.
Stop pretending to be tougher than everybody else. Stop talking behind peoples' backs in a cowardly attempt to make yourself feel superior.
That guy who you think you are smarter than has things going on that you are not equipped to understand.
"People in glass houses..."
We are ALL in glass houses.
Just be human and recognize the fact that everybody else is human too.
