I am aware of the psychological fact known as "projection", and I do know that it is the case that people in glass houses should be very careful when it comes to throwing stones.
If you were a "standard ordinary history teacher" in a "girls secondary modern school", that is to say "a girls school, dominated by women, on the staff as well..." making such accusations might be quite telling.
Accused by one's own mouth etc.
Friendly, avuncular, cheerful...
It always used to be a business trick when dealing with someone who puffs themselves up to imagine them stripped down naked.
But there are some cases where such an exercise can be more damaging to the psyche than an aid.
Forgive me Pete, but try as I may I can't take this man seriously.
Not even the Hawkeye forgers could clean up this psychologically self-devastating cartoon.
No need to seek forgiveness, David. At least for our shared inability to take seriously the Twit of the Decade. Let us ridicule him all the way to the ignominy he so richly deserves.
But the suggestion to "imagine [him] stripped down naked" is another matter.
Here's what I get: Sarah Palin after a severe beating -- and with larger breasts.
I must go off now to poke out my mind's eye.
Okay, I'm back.
Central Casting, send me the perfect lead for the Dirty Headmaster project!
(That's "Headmaster" as in U.S. school principal; get your minds out of the gutter!)
Reminds me of a joke: A guy -- we'll call him Andrew, for such is the mood I'm in -- comes home from work one night to find his live-in paramour packing his/her bags.
"What's going on here?" asks Andrew.
"I'm leaving you," says he/she.
Andrew is perplexed. "May I ask after your motivation?"
The paramour says, "Today I found out that you're a pedophile!"
And Andrew, his falsetto voice dripping with faux admiration, says, "Hmmm ... 'pedophile.' That's a big word for a ten-year-old!"
Peter, the Walker entity orchestrated my departure from the EF -- and I still haven't found the proper words to express my gratitude -- by first banning my access to that forum while claiming that I was lying about being banned. Then he "argued" that my computer was failing; you see, I had exposed his game by using a friend's computer and membership -- until that Internet address too was banned.
Only the Britain that gave us Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair could have produced Not-So-Randy Andy. And how's that for a threesome ...
"Oh Tony" ... "Oh Andy" ... "Oh Tony" ... "Oh Andy" ... "BOYS! I'm over here!" "Coming, Prime Minister."
On more than one occasion I described this miscreant -- a self-advertised golf enthusiast -- as having a 9-iron shoved up his arse.
Only now, after seeing him half-live, do I realize that the club went in head-first.
