what angers you about the truth
About truth? Nothing!
About lies? Everything!
Not sure why you put this under "relationships" but I guess one of the biggest things they meddle into are intimate relationships. I remember 10 years ago, couple of elders took me to one of those because I knew the family way better, so I sat there and listened to all the rubish. I can tell you man, I was physically sick after that. I didn't say a word entire time. I guess they wondered why they even took me along. I was "MS and pioneer" at the time, which was as high as I ever went. I couldn't imagine myself going through dirty laundry of some 100 people on regular basis. I think you have to be something akin to Jerry Springer to be able to do the job and not go insane.
