well, if i get to choose my own ists, I will go with these

anti-perfectionist
I exist
can't draw a straight line so I am not much of an artist
i love rainy mist
anti-elitist
my wife I have kissed
any i missed?
(I know the last two are not exactly -ists but the pronunciation is thesame in the Midwest USA which is where this poor typist(hey another ist) grew up

Oh, yes, I often try and sometimes succeed in being a humorist

Now I am an imperialist,too? Will you never run out of 'ists" to call me?

At least you haven't called me an ageist! (yet)

My mistake.

I assumed this quote illustrated what you believed.

I am just saying what I think would happen if you asked any Westerner about it - not saying they should feel that way - just that they do.

But the ageism I am talking about it is advertisements that would leave both you and me and your husband out of jobs if everyone did it - the under 35 only job ads that are all too common in South Korea

Re. the above blog posting and the following quote....

"Ask any Westerner who their best teachers were- twenty-somethings or fifty-somethings and you will get the answer the older the better."

Isn't this agiest too?

Just a thought!
