My Clothes > Your Clothes

"We're a little too into sports in this country, I think we've got to throttle back, you know what I mean? People come home from these games, 'We won! We won!' No, they won - you watched."

(Seinfeld, 6:1, 'The Chaperone')

"Loyalty to any one sports team is pretty hard to justify. Because the players are always changing, the team can move to another city - you're actually rooting for the clothes when you get right down to it, you know what I mean?

You're standing and cheering and yelling for your clothes to beat the clothes from another city. Fans will be so in love with a player but if he goes to another team, they boo him. This is the same human being in a different shirt - they hate him now. Boo! Different shirt! Boo!"

(Seinfeld, 6:11, 'The Label Maker')

My College > Your College

I'm not sure if there's a point to this story but I'm going to tell it again.

I've been wilfully caught up in the self-defeating quest to get to know myself for years. I've never expected anything beneficial to result from such a quest. I tend to evoke extremely polarised reactions from people I get to know in passing. Consequently, only those people who know me inside-out would honestly claim that I'm a person who's just "alright." It's not a coincidence that the description I've laid out above has no fewer than, title included, eleven references to me (make that twelve). I'm affectionately referred to as "Ego." I think that last statement might have given away a tad too much. Welcome Aboard.
