Discardia - junk and papers

Last night I had the Discardian impulse. While I waited for my bathwater to run I went through nearly everything in the bathroom cabinet and drawers. There is now a paper grocery bag full of old bottles of lotion & junk like that. To be thrown out.

Bins of junk in front of my file cabinet are now mostly trash (30 min this morning)

File cabinet, you're next.

Cliques

If people thought I was being clique-y, would they just say so? I'd appreciate it if that's what anyone thinks, if they'd just out with it.

eta: (I'm saying this b/c on a mailing list people are all complaining about cliquey women being cliquey and yet it's clear they aren't saying anything to the women they feel are excluding them and I'm kind of bugged by this. b/c in this situation my impresison ismore that that "cliquey" women are close friends with each other and thus, interested in each other past interest in strangers and yet aren't unfriendly or mean. yet there is this easily invokable stereotype that women are "cliquey" or "mean girls".)

eta: (Also, I'd like women to be able to say "no, actually i just dont want to talk to you" or to NOT LIKE EVERYONE and that not be evidence of some deep pathology or of women's inherent flaws.)
