New Word
I learned a new word today, "misanthropic."
Misanthropic
adj 1: believing the worst of human nature and motives; having a sneering disbelief in e.g. selflessness of others [syn: cynical, misanthropical] 2: hating mankind in general [syn: misanthropical]
My screenwriting teacher used this word today to describe a character in the documentary film "Crumb." He used it and I wrote it down on my hand to look up later. There was something about the word I liked, it has kinda of a lyrical sound to it.
The Telescreen
In George Orwell's book "1984," the apparently all-knowing “Big Brother” is constantly watching people though cameras and telescreens. People lived in fear and ignorance, never questioning the higher powers. In a sense sometimes I feel like "Big Brother," because I seem to see to notice and understand things differently then other people.
