Someone asked me how I define "asshole" the other day, in reference to a conversation about a person we both know who frequently causes problems for both themself and everyone around them. This someone was offering an impressive array of psychological issues to explain the poor behavior exhibited, "brief therapy" suggestions, blah blah blah.
I remarked that I felt the whole problem is simply that she's an asshole.
(paraphrase) "Uh, well, that doesn't tell me anything. How do you define "asshole"? I mean, what qualifies someone as an asshole?"
Well, I gave a pretty simple explanation. But later on I started thinking about the whole situation and realized I probably was talking to mere air when I attempted to explain my stand. Some things really do defy rationalization, and I believe that's the way it should be. Some people cannot understand things that others just take for granted.
The Harley analogy: If you have to ask, you wouldn't understand.
