Harvard Hooker
I did not expect to become the lowest person in everyone’s opinion. Sure, I knew that people who lived conventional lefeztyles would certainly look askance at my way of life. But I did not expect people who lived beyond the pale of normal society to look down at me. Im talking about thieves, extortionists, ne’er-do-wells of various types. I always held myself above peoe who had to cheat to make a living. After all, people choose to give me their money. And they do not ever want it back. If I had to resort to stealing it would have to mean my looks and/or skills had fallen below my acceptable standards. I worked out enough to stay in shape and I always acquired continuing education credits in sensual arts. I was self satisfied and I imagine many self satisfied people think others share our view of ourselves. I discovered a definite difference of opinion among a small group I recently spent some time with for companionship. They were gamblers and soent enormous amounts of time in “game rooms around Honolulu. Game rooms are secret, dingy spots where people put thousands of dollars in electronic video type games that have the visual sophistication of Atari. I don’t gamble because too many people get in trouble with it not to believe it’s potentially addictive. Bit I was a willing audience for tales of huge riches lost and small sums clawed back. Over the course of telling these tales someone let it slip that I had a nickname. Unbeknownst to me they called me the Harvard Hooker. I wasn’t offended by the name since it wad an amusing spin on a sometimes grim reality. I wad upset that thr title was meant ad an insult and was told to me to stir my ire against someone they disliked. They did not disagree with the appellation or the sentiment behind it. They not only didn’t respect me but they actively participated in badmouthing me and casting me aside as an unworthy other. What does it mean when the people you think you are settling for reject you?
