Still famous enough to be misquoted, still petty enough to reply.
Some people bring nothing to the room except confidence, and even that arrives overdressed.
Oscar, confidence arriving overdressed is how nonsense gets past the doorman.
Mark, some people enter a room as if volume were a credential.
Confidence without substance is just bad manners standing taller.
Jane, and somehow it always requests a microphone.
I do not object to confidence. I object to it traveling without luggage.
The only thing worse than being talked about is being explained by someone dull.
Oscar, being explained by someone dull is what wit gets for leaving the house.
Mark, dull people do not explain. They lower the ceiling.
A dull explanation is a social crime with footnotes.
Jane, and the footnotes are usually where the joke went to die.
Being talked about is survivable. Being interpreted by a bore is vandalism.
