Later that night, Lesley Arfin, a thirty-something staff writer for "Girls," weighed in with a statement — also via Twitter — that was breathtakingly dismissive and intellectually dishonest: "What really bothered me most about [the movie] Precious was that there was no representation of ME".
For me, that place is my personal site, the representation of me online.
I think it is a good representation of me - it certainly looks like me.
"Your representation of me as interesting is inaccurate," he says in another.
"Broadly it's an accurate representation of me," she said of "Kids".
There are elements of me in all of my main characters, but none of them is a direct representation of me, not even Darren in the Saga.
And yes, it's strange that so many people have seen such an intimate representation of me – but only when I think about it being specifically me.
That's not to say that I'm anti-camera, as I've already amassed more than 600 new photographs, but I've also downloaded an app called X-pire that erases all social media photos after a set expiry date, so at least my avatar is a current representation of me.
Each one is a representation of me.
That internet representation of me, the me it should take time to know and listen to and hear complain and rant and laugh, that's not me.
