The girl needs a big dose of humble pie! Having been asked if she liked Star Wars and replying no, she was started banging on about how she dislikes all sci-fi, fantasy & fiction. And if those that allowed themselves to be distracted by this rubbish didn't give it any 'head space' the problems of our planet would be lessened. (we seem to be allowed to give head space to that much more serious issue of vintage and boho fashion though!
)
Apparently cos of 'Rom Com' films and the internet, people no longer understand what real love is, and if they went out into the world they would actually find it.
The internet apparently has destroyed communities (not created them... destroyed them!).
In her head... if you like Sci Fi then she sees you as a full on Star Trek fanatic. If you go on the internet then you are that old stereotypical computer nerd, if you watch Romantic Comedy films then you believe that is how the world is and you will grow into a lonely old spinster cos you are forever waiting for Richard Gere to walk into your factory in full navel uniform to carry you away.
I gotta wonder if she actually listens when she has conversations with people.... for her to hold so tightly to these naive stereotypes.
She really does think she has sussed the meaning of life, and that she is a template for perfection.
she did say one thing that I agreed with and that is we should take more time to get to know the person sitting next to us and the world would be a better place.
I gotta agree, just cos she is well spoken, doesn't mean she doesn't still talk drivel.
