an anthropologist approaches the seventeen-year-old male standing on a beach near maceió, in alagoas, and unselfconsciously masturbating into mild atlantic surf. he asks the boy the name for what he is doing.

very often, every day, every day or so, every so often, more times than not, regularly, off and on, here and there, now and again, by and by, once in a blue moon, eventually, when a time presents itself, in due course, soon, shortly, in a while yet, at a time to be determined, later, further on down the line, at the far end of that dusty trail, someday, hereafter, if possible, perchance, not impossibly, god willing, perhaps, conceivably, don't hold your breath, forget it, nevermore, not at all, not in any way, not in the least, not on your life, never, not another word

does the number of things you are not interested in exceed the number of things you are interested in? do you find the overcast day somewhat anesthetic and cheering and the bright day assaultive and depressing? are you still living in such a way that suggests you are waiting for the real living to start at some later and unspecified date? do you find that interventionists are on the rise or in the ascendant--people, i mean, with plans, and by plans i mean plans they deem superior to yours? isn't it moot to point out that someone is not a political person when we can rightfully argue that he is not a person at all? if you are having troubles, can they not always be held at bay by exercising until you are tired and putting on a good pair of shoes? can't one just snap back at the world with a little Juicy Fruit? how daft are we? more daft, less daft, or just as daft as people were before?

xxxxxx is well-known for his concept of language as a trauma. We are all born into a world that is not of our making, and we must learn the language of our culture in order to survive and succeed in it. In this way, we are trapped in language. Language structures our thoughts and the ways we create meaning. Society is built on language, and our egos are built from society. However, language is imprecise. It is as much the basis of misunderstanding as it is of communication. While we have a shared structure that allows us to work together and have relationships, each person interprets his or her experiences in vastly different ways. Reality is subjective.
