Karen: STOP PROMISING TO FUND THINGS .... AFRICA, ID'ing a Calif cop, etc. UNTIL YOU GET THE MONEY. YOU HAVENT EVEN SIGNED A CONTRACT YET STOP ACTING ALL BRAGGY!
me: go read a book or something
me: I'm talking to the people who work with me on the stuff I've already accomplished
me: there's 8 people in here
me: you need to relax
me: seriously
me: I know what I'm doing
Karen: You sound like Donald Trump.
me: I got a book deal and other things in play
me: so chill out
me: no, I don't
Karen: Nobody likes a braggart.
me: nobody likes a neurotic woman
Karen: You dilute your credibility when you brag and sound all pompous. Scale it back a little.
me: go to bed
me: I'm not being pompous
me: I'm telling people I work with about something we're going to do
me: if you were generally right about risks I would not have a book deal and all that
me: you're obviously overreacting to things, then
Karen: You don't have a book deal yet so stop bragging about it!
me: yes, I do
me: get off my video thing
me: you need to stop watching me all day
Karen: There's no reason for you to sound like a douchebag.
Karen: If your own mother can't tell you you sound like a douchebag, then who can?
