Here's a statement/joke I told in response to someone reciting "Humpty Dumpty":
"The king's men pushed him off the wall and none of them actually wanted to put him back together again and so they didn't! That's how the PTB works folks."
A coworker I suspect is an EII laughed and said: "Truth" and (after a further discussion among other coworkers) ask how I was wrong about that. I wonder if this how it feels to be a benefactor. They get what you want on a primal level yet do so in such a way that it leaves you a bit lost.
I don't mind that the average EII likes me so much. I get confused when they really overvalue my opinion...
I mean, I just don't actually get why they like me so damn much. I'll say this from a context I'll now admit to. I'm Catholic. The EII in question is/was a freemason. I did not hide this from him and he was certainly not stupid or foolish enough to not innately understand how that was fundamentally a bad thing in regards to our mutual relationship.
He somehow didn't care! Literal card-carrying Freemason vs. Loud and Proud Catholic and yet we got along!
