 Ösa sin galla över någon (utgjuta sin vrede över någon) |  Vent one's spleen on somebody |
| What's widely interpreted as being likable is caring and soft and fuzzy and I just think that's boring. People don't want to watch a guy who's hateful. That's a tricky thing - to make a guy interesting and difficult and troubled and flawed but not hateful. |
| In the last couple of years, England has had a real problem with American culture. Looking back, people were looking to vent. They were going to vent to anybody they felt was carrying the American flag. And I carry the flag. But I carry it musically. |
| When you can't do something truly useful, you tend to vent the pent up energy in something useless but available, like snappy dressing. |
| When you can't do something truly useful, you tend to vent the pent up energy in something useless but available, like snappy dressing. |
| They need to vent somewhere and I just happen to be the poor (guy) behind the counter they vent to. |
| Although the story is absurd and at times somewhat humorous, it produces a hateful image of the institution and it is well known that hateful images like this produce feelings of hatred in those who lack a critical sense. |
| It takes a lot more energy to fail than to succeed, since it takes a lot of concentrated energy to hold on to beliefs that don't work. |
| They keep telling us to get over it. I would suggest to you that the N-word is not getting over it. It is a hateful, hateful, painful, sorrowful, violent word that has no place in public education. |
| I just put it on the site for anyone to enjoy. Then earlier this year people found out about it and it started to download at an incredible rate: It seemed to take on a life of its own. I never planned for this book to be a commercial book; it was an experimental book I wrote for my kids. I'm just thrilled people are enjoying it. If it means people get to know me as a writer, then that's great. |
| is it any different to loaning a book to someone? There was a book in the US ( Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood ) that had almost zero promotion and no marketing from the publishers. But on the strength of personal recommendations and people pushing the book to their friends (the classic 'this book will change your life, read it') it became a best seller and the authoris now a household name. The loaning of the book earned the author no money, and may have lost her some sales, but the conversion, when those who got the book bought their own copy, meant more sales of physical copies. |
| The book is amazing because it takes a very fresh look at something that freaks people out. |
| That just makes the show exciting and more passionate. We tend to vent our energy onstage when we have an argument. It's a lot easier and more natural. We've learned to keep our anger in until the show. |
