R.A.D. StainforthI really dislike Debussy’s Violin Sonata. Only realized that today. I find that very liberating, somehow, that realizing that I have an opinion that I didn’t know about.
It is so liberating to admit there are pieces of music, or types of music that you don’t like, and don’t have to like!
I am beginning to wonder whether or not I really do like Elgar’s Introduction and Allegro.
It’s nearly 12:30 and I’m still in my pyjamas but at least I’ve had breakfast! I’m not beating myself up about it because I obviously needed the extra time in bed and the relaxed breakfast, and I don’t have to be anywhere at all this morning, just want to sort some paperwork out before a short meeting this afternoon.
What’s the difference between “dependable” and “reliable”? Can anyone think of a single sentence in which one can be used and not the other?
For me dependable can have (although it doesn’t need to) just the merest breath of a negative connotation which for me reliable can’t, or can’t as easily. (Both always do the job but with dependable I don’t expect anything more and with reliable I expect nothing less. Sort of. A bit. Depends.)
