I do see what you mean, but I was sort of reading it for different things. I didn't really want to say "I found this interesting because [stuff]" when I posted it because I wanted to see what other people's reactions were, but maybe I should have done -- it was only one angle of it that I was really interested in.
I think I failed to object to "neurotic" and "distressed" because to me they seem like very accurate descriptions of the way I feel in that context. :-/ Maybe I was overpersonalising the whole thing ... probably because I'm neurotic, weak and not clever enough to really understand the article at all except where I can say "Ooooh, that sounds like me! It's about me!"
articles ... about quantum mechanics and the development of greek drama
I probably thought they were terribly clever and original and interdisciplinary, because I'm too stupid to know any better. :-(
