When Is A Lie Not A Lie?
I’m starting to wonder if there is a social compact to lie, accept each others’ lies, and say nothing about it, in this case a “white lie” told by someone I don’t know very well. I didn’t know about or accept the compact and have lost a potential friend because of it.
A new acquaintance was in the area visiting from Washington and hadn’t contacted me during her visit here with her husband. When I expressed slight regret that I had missed her she said that she didn’t have my number. I pointed out to her that if she had really wanted to visit she could have contacted me via email or Facebook, our usual mode of communication.
She could have just been honest and said something like, “Oh it was just a family trip and we weren’t planning any side trips.” Was she trying not to hurt my feelings by pretending they really did want to visit but just couldn’t contact me?
The upshot, because I didn’t play the social compact game, is that I never heard from her again and she didn’t respond to any more emails and messages. I had broken the social compact and I was toast.-
Absolutely there’s a social compact to lie, especially about big things — being a Christian, having a democracy, just the tip, and so on.
I am incapable of being disappointed that someone didn’t visit. In this case, proper etiquette, by my standards, would be to say once that they’re welcome to visit, say it early as possible, when you first hear about their trip, and then never say it a second time, and hope they don’t show up.

What, now they’re starting with the Ai porn?! That’s not fair, I just sold all my Ai stock and it’s about to get hotter and harder? I quit the dumb porn, albeit just now and then, almost three years ago but Ai porn, wow, that’s a suicide machine, but why would they want to kill off their customers with heart attacks from too-exciting orgasms?
Ah porn, I remembering when I was so proud I was getting better and I said, “Mom, I’ve recently transitioned from rough first-time anal to girl-on-girl!”
“Oh, what about the chicks with dicks?” she asked.
“Just a phase…”
Ai porn, that’s a leap like a joint to coke, I’m coming back baby, oh yeah death wish, and I actually wrote my will yesterday. (Maybe it’s time to get back in and invest heavily in lube?)-
AI annoys, angers, or bores me, and AI porn? Even my fantasies take place in reality.
