I’d love to see your notes on me someday if you have any.
PS – You’re more like my mother than I thought. She also likes True Crime (as well as British mysteries) and doesn’t consider herself a sociopath yet is utterly fascinated by them. This is a very high compliment coming from me because I’m a momma’s boy. tongue emoticon
She hates nothing more than a mystery where she knows who did it within 5 minutes. Gets harder and harder for her to find “good ones” that surprise her. Acorn TV has been a big help on her Roku; as they’ve got the timing and choices down pat perfectly to suite the needs of their viewership, at least with her.
When she watches a “good mystery” for a second time, she analyzes it to see where the writers were misleading the audience, and where they were putting the clues that she might have missed the first time around, asking different questions than “Who did it?”.
She’d be a dangerous prosecuting attorney to face. You would be too; even more so.
a) man
b) power of presence (at least in written form)
c) strong methodology that you can decontextualize. [her context remains within the stories themselves]
I, on the other hand, would make a good defense attorney. Appeal to emotion? Appeal to a “We’re all unique but deep down we’re not so different?” Good with spin? Yeah, that’s me.
