I actually go about saying things like "I did work today and seek praise!" or "I have the inexplicable urge to make you jealous, so I'm probably going to talk about my ex in a minute" or "I don't like your friend and you should probably take anything bad I say about her with a grain of salt" or "I'm going to spend the next ten minutes trying to convince you to help us move next week unless it doesn't take that long".

I like your style.

At the risk of making people of all genders feel uncomfortable, I'll add that this is also a fantasy of mine.

You mean talking like that is something you fantasize about doing, or fantasize about other people doing?

You're right, it's hardly fair of me to want it of others if I can't deliver it myself. I was thinking only of the many times the desire of it in others has served as an excuse for my lack of perception.
