"People say I'm easily satisfied. Is that bad thing?" Miss Action Satisfaction
Dear Action, How about giving us your telephone number? We'd like to handle this query on a one-on-one level. Just kidding. Actually, We're not. It's great to meet someone who is easily saisfied. In this day and age of over-achievement, it's refreshing to meet people who don't want more. You must be a very popular Miss. Honestly, we don't think your problem is a problem at all. That doesn't mean you should stop contacting us. We think you're just the kind of person who should write to us, often. Most of the time people are most dissatisfied with the solutions we so thoughtfully dish out for their bloody problems. They keep writing back to us asking us to elaborate on various micro-matters of the suggstions we give them. It really gets to us. I mean, it's not like we don't have other things to do. We may be jobless, but being so is a full-time job, you know. In your case, though, we'd really appreciate it if you could tell us more about why you think you are easily satisfied? Do you hang out with losers? Are you the kind who doesn't care whether the man you're dating has a car or not? Do you pay all the bills? Are you the kind of woman who doesn't expect her man to bring home the bacon? Will you slog your butt off while the man of the house sits around the house in his jockeys wasting his life away? We'd really like to know these micro-details of your easily satisfied persona. In fact, we suggest you immediately make a trip down to our private chamber and allow us to hand-hold our way through your problem. Needless to say, it will be no problem at all for us. The perennial underachiever in us is pretty sure you will be very satisfied with the deep personal attention we will pay to your non-issue. No issues at all. We sincerely hope you are not satisfied with our response and will take the trouble to keep the dialogue going. Quite frankly, when it comes to your problem, we're most dissatisfied and desperately hope you are not satisfied. We don't think you have a problem, but you can be sure we're more than willing to look into it and create a problem. We also hope you're not old enough to solve your own problems. Eager to please, Dirty Funcle.
