...same thing with other people. Believe me, I’ve got my own list for “tools,” “douchebags” and the like. (I even have a list of Anti-Chrises, the human particles I avoid completely, lest we annihilate each other in a weird anthropomorphic physics catastrophe.) Once you find your way on to my lists, it’s really hard to get off. What scares me is that everyone has lists like mine. How do I know that all those people in my sections aren?...
