If I make trivial chat about trivial things, like clothes, people seem to think it means I am Lacking In Depth. Oh how I long for someone to come up and make a knock-knock joke. <br /><br />I can be shallow and deep, take my work seriously and myself not, talk trash and seriously.<br /><br />Maybe all your co-lift travellers are stroking their ties to look like serious people but are actually singing "There's gotta be someplace better than this, and when I find some kinda reason to live..." inside. (If you haven't seen the show Beautiful People, can I strongly recommend it!) Then again, maybe they are actually taking themselves seriously, just like the people who can't understand a person can be both funny and serious.<br /><br />Give me knock knock jokes, but please no interpretive dance. It is just too deep and metaphoric.
