I recently said to my son, "One thing I have to give myself credit for is that the entire time I had cancer, my personality never changed one whit. I never got temperamental, or started snapping at people, or acting as if I was under a huge amount of stress. Even when I was getting radiated, I acted just like I always have."
My son replied, "Yeah, but Dad, that's a real low bar. You're pretty much a neurotic, whiny asshole to begin with. You want to take credit for staying that way, great, go ahead."

that's funny. Still think this would work in a movie.
Steven --
The movie's already been made. (With Johnny in the role of Mordred.)
The guardian had an article about the alt-right.

John--your son is actually pretty funny. That said, what he probably doesn't realize is that you could have gone pretty far South of the ordinary whinyness that you might be while at home. Hey, if you weren't the neurotic that you are you could have been an incredibly boring stoic that you're not! Brian
Steven --
I wonder if Bannon is part of the alt-right. I just don't know enough about him; I would guess he's open to its ideas though.

Thank you on behalf of my son. On behalf of myself.....hmm, I'm not sure.

Oh, I thought he was going to say - "But dad you don't HAVE a personality to change."
