she was cuffed to the truth

I used to be friends with a girl who really just knew everything about her was so much more exciting than anything else, and she was SO EDGEH and kewl, and could talk about herself and her dramatic life for hours, and if she said something that upset someone, or hurt their feelings, it was their fault for not getting her humor or art or general edgehness. and I even believed she was cool for a long time, and put up with being kind of dicked around because she was totally the center of the universe, so other people got dicked over, until I realized that she was in no way actually as cool as she set herself up as, and not even cool enough to have a right to treat people as less than she, and pretty much lacked cool entirely, and was, if not a complete douche, at least not worth my time and pain.

Amanda Palmer reminds me of her.
