Non smart stuff.

[Portreve]

.........At some point, one is obliged to be aware of the world around oneself.

Thanks for the lecture?
I may be 'less informed' in some spheres in comparison with those who read all the papers or are glued to their television programming but I'm also exposed to a damn sight less propaganda. Prefer to form my own opinion rather than be given it by the press.

I was recounting an incident between a co-worker and myself. How exactly was this a lecture? I can only imagine — and hope — that his M.O. is not representative of yours. I can't imagine anyone who's a normal, functional human being wanting to be as uninformed and unaware as he is.
