If you only very casually know them, they seem timid, dainty, or frumpy, and seem so soft-handed and even endearing. Get to know them better, open some doors to get a peak in, and you will find that these people are some of the most disaffected and bitter malcontents you can meet. They are in various stages or degrees of functional depressives who harbor little hope for the world or their place in it, but overcompensate for it by wielding a pseudo-intellectual arrogance, from which they would tear us all asunder in some great act of justice... if only the world was fair and right.
Be honest. They are a pain in the ass
