>>I think the author basically intended to affirm another Svbtle author's candid and personal revelations by saying we should all be so honest.
aah okay - I missed that. Pretty long winded +1.
As to honesty - well, there is a time and a place for the kind of honesty that just puts it all out there and a time and a place for an abbreviated version.
Not every interaction requires the in-depth/verbose honesty because every interaction has its context.....for example - checkout girl - you aren't really going to spill your guts to her when she greets you with a cheery "How you doin' today?". It would be a bit weird to respond "yeah, I'm not so good actually, let me tell you all about it"
"Um...okaaaay, that'l be $25.95 please".
anyhooooo staw men small talk, just my thoughts. :)
I totally get where you're coming from and felt the same way.
Perhaps I am reading too much into, and someone evidently disagrees with me because getting downvoted and buried but I was trying to bridge your reaction (which i share) with where I thought the OP was coming from.
