“Am I going to be on your blog?”

That’s what this guy asked me the other night, a guy I’d only just met at my sister’s party.

After announcing to me within moments that he made a point of ‘scaring people’ in conversation, he spent the next twenty minutes or proving himself right.

He was a philosophy student you see, into his fourth degree on the subject and obviously a huge fan of intellectual banter. A little too much of a fan, if you know what I mean. We bantered. I left. We bantered some more. I left again. A little more banter later and I suddenly realised I was being sucked into his duel of minds against my will. Within moments, our conversation was turning from intellectual wankery into a sort of uncomfortable abuse that was bordering on intellectual harrassment. Sounds weird? Well…it was.

I left again: for good.

But as it wrapped up, I do remember him saying to me: “Hang on a minute. Am I going to be on your blog?”

I laughed and laughed and laughed.

“Hell no.”

I acknowledge the Gubbi Gubbi, Wakka Wakka and Butchulla peoples, the First Nation Traditional Owners of Country, and custodians of the land and waters on which I live and work, and all the peoples who have welcomed me on Country. I pay respects to all Elders past and present and acknowledge the young leaders who are working beside Elders in our cultural industries in the continuation of cultural, spiritual and educational practices. I recognise all First Nation peoples as the original storytellers of these lands and acknowledge the important role they continue to play in our community.
