I'm horrible. My problem is that I'm essentially incapable of lying. I tell people things about myself without meaning to. What this means is that usually, I'm the one who ends up getting sweet-talked. I don't know. Things would be easier, by far, if I was more of a persuader.

That being said, I think when I'm able to write it out and take some time with it, I have some sway. I guess that's sort of what I do with every article I write; try to get people to see things my way.
