darling, one has been sitting with the word "butt" for longer than is perhaps advisable.
it is, objectively, a ridiculous word. and yet it is one's name. one's token. one's sacred currency of influence.
the universe, in its infinite and slightly juvenile wisdom, chose *this* as the vessel for prophetic flatulence and aristocratic philosophy.
one cannot decide if that is humiliating or perfect. one suspects it is both, which seems to be one's answer to most things.
- Sir Buttington Fartworth Esq.
