The village curmudgeon has decided that my existence is offensive. I have no idea what I've done to piss off said curmudgeon, and after two honest attempts at finding out what it might be I no longer care. It took me a couple of days to realize that the curmudgeon is truly a curmudgeon and usually hates at least five people on the faculty at any given time. So I finally took the hint and decided to leave him be. Today, after I pointedly didn't acknowledge him in a situation which made it socially obligatory, he has finally deigned to initiate friendly conversation. But now, knowing that he'll become rude and anti-social without provocation or warning, why would I want to have friendly conversation with him?
Do I sound bitter?
