      Please,
      refrain
      from
      yelling
      and
     
     
      take
      a
      seat.
      These
      actions
      are
      not
     
     
      new
      to
      you,
      and
      if
      you
      would
     
     
      cease
      to
      be
      concerned
      with
     
     
      details,
      you
      would
      see
      the
      big
     
     
      picture.
     
    

    
     
      I
      appreciate
      your
      unfiltered
     
     
      personality,
      especially
      in
      those
     
     
      instances
      when
      we
      are
      convers-
     
     
      ing
      whilst
      driving
      in
      your
      self-
     
     
      propelled
      motorized
      vehicle.
     
     
      However,
      when
      we
      are
      included
     
    
   
   
    
     
      in
      a
      larger
      social
      context,
      your
     
     
      personality
      alters,
      and
      you
     
     
      become
      both
      increasingly
      para-
     
     
      noid
      and
      desperate
      to
      gain
      other
     
     
      people's
      approval.

      Explain
      to
      me
      why
      you
      must
     
     
      make
      your
      actions
      increasingly
     
     
      complex?
      I
      have
      observed
      your
     
     
      rapid
      change
      in
      personality,
      and
     
     
      it
      aggravates
      me
      to
      a

      When
      you
      present
      yourself
     
     
      at
      my
      domicile
      without
      previous
     
     
      arrangements,
      and
      you
      are
     
     
      dressed
      in
      the
      garb
      of
      another
     
     
      social
      group
      to
      which
      you

      not

      you
      cause
      me
      to
      express
     
     
      amusement
      at
      full
      volume.
      As
     
     
      well,
      when
      you
      replicate
      a
      mod-
     
     
      eling
      position,
      I
      must
      request
     
     
      that
      you
      remove
      the
      clothing
      that
     
     
      you
      wear,
      as
      the
      vestments
     
     
      belong
      to
      another
      social
      class
      to
     
     
      which
      you
      do
      not
      belong.
      No
     
     
      one
      believes
      the
      deceptions
      you

      trying
      to
      express.

      In
      larger
      social
      scenes,
      when
     
     
      we
      are
      fraternizing
      with
      mutual
     
     
      acquaintances,
      you
      develop
     
     
      acute
      social
      phobias,
      such
      as:
      an
     
     
      increased
      awareness
      of
      those
     
     
      around
      you,.an
      inability
      to
      enjoy
     
     
      the
      current
      situation,
      and
      a
     
     
      desire
      to
      gain
      social
      acceptance.
     
     
      These
      instances
      cause
      you
      to
     
     
      look
      irrational
      and
      unstable
      in
     
     
      my
      eyes.
     
    

    
     
      Publicly

      and
      explain
      to
     
     
      me,
      in
      the
      most
      direct
      way,
      why
     
     
      must
      you
      continually
      create
      such
     
     
      intricate
      and
      Byzantine

      ceived

      I
      recognize
      your
     
     
      manner
      of
      behaviour,
      especially
     
     
      when
      you
      appear
      in
      the
      guise
      of
     
     
      a
      different
      individual,
      and
      these
     
     
      actions
      cause
      me
      a
      great
      deal
      of
     
     
      exasperation.

      I
      have
      described
     
     
      throughout
      this
      dissertation.
     
     
      When
      you
      tumble,
      move
      slowly
     
     
      as
      a
      toddler
      would,
      shatter,

      would
      like
      you
      to
      solemnly
     
     
      swear
      that
      you
      express
      only
     
     
      truthful
      statements,
      and
      also
      that
     
     
      you
      never
      knowingly
      attempt
      to
     
     
      don
      the
      markings
      of
      another
     
     
      individual
      simply
      to
      impress
      me.
     
     
      Relax,
      take
      a
      deep
      breath,
     
     
      place
      yourself
      on
      a
      chair,
      and
     
     
      cease
      speaking
      loudly.
      All
      the
     
     
      experiences
      that
      you
      are
      feeling
     
     
      are
      not
      new
      to
      you;
      in
      fact,
      they
     
    
   
   
    
     
      -
      are
      universal.
      When
      you
      open
     
    
   
   
    
     
      your
      mind
      to
      accept
      this
      state-
     
    

    
     
      ment
      of
      fact,
      you
      will
      perceive
     
    

    
     
      the
      grandness
      of
      the
      situation.
     
     
      You
      develop
      and
      inherit
      the
     
    
   
   
    
     
      '
      personality
      traits
      of
      other
      indi-
     
    
   
   
    
     
      viduals
      when
      we
      are
      in
      the
      pres-
     
    
   
   
    
     
      ence
      of
      a
      group
      of
      people
      in
      a
     
    
   
   
    
     
      similar
      age
      demographic.
      This
     
     
      context
      thus
      leads
      to
      erratic
     
     
      shifts
      in
      your
      personality,
      caus-
     
     
      ing
      you
      great
      discomfort
      and
      an
     
     
      inability
      to
      unwind.
      Although
     
     
      you
      have
      attempted
      to
      impress
     
     
      me
      with
      your
      displays
      of
      brava-
     
     
      do,
      they
      have
      failed.
     
    

    
     
      Why
      must
      you
      cause
      such
      a
     
     
      mosaic
      of
      multifarious
      ideas
      to
     
     
      occur?
      Again,
      I
      have
      perceived
     
     
      your
      behaviour
      as
      that
      of
      another
     
     
      person,
      and
      deem
      it
      to
      be
      fraud-
     
     
      ulent,
      and
      persistently
      aggravat-
     
     
      ing
      to
      myself
      and
      others.
      Life
      is
     
     
      like
      this,
      though.
      There
      are
      many
     
     
      trials
      and
      tribulations
      that
      one
     
     
      must
      endure,
      but
      in
      the
      entire
     
     
      scope
      of
      our
      sense
