This morning I saw a sign on the bulletin board I made this week: "You suck at bulletin boards. At least try." Aside from this contradicting itself--implying that if I would at least try, that I would not suck at bulletin boards--and needing a bit of grammatical help, I was miffed. I started to contemplate making a new bulletin board. The statement made me angry, but since I don't really judge my value based on how my bulletin board looks, my temper cooled a bit. Still, someone wrote on the board instead of talking to me. That's a spineless way of communicating. No one can see the other responsibilities I was carrying when I made the bulletin board.
We all desire to be understood, and a one-way dialogue does not allow for that.
