The real issue. There was no ‘real issue’, at least not one that would be of any actual interest to the man. He was simply hanging around to be a thorn in her side because she’d tolerated him thus far and he thought he could. Well - no more. Thera turned toward him, a glower in her eye.
“My ‘exquisite delicacy of feeling’, Koehler, would be leading me to suggest that you fucking bite me, if I didn’t suspect those disgusting mouth barnacles of yours would give me instant gangrene. And the only immediate issues as far as I can see is to wonder why the hell you are even here? Given you are of no use, whatsoever, you can feel free to fuck off at any given moment of your choosing!”

Read about plants and/or animals.

Body Movement: ( 3.86 )
You like to move, dance, wiggle, walk, and swim. You are likely good at sports, and you have good fine motor skills. You may enjoy taking things apart and putting them back together. Incorporating body movement into your learning will help you process and retain information better. Here are some ideas.
Take a break and do a cross-lateral walk. (Is this the same as ‘cut and run’?)
Beat the stuffing out of people on a regular basis.
Self: ( 3.57 )
You have a very good sense of self. You like to spend time by yourself and think things over. You will often take in information from another person, mull it over by yourself, and come back to that person later to discuss it. You like working on projects on your own. You often prefer to learn by trial and error. Effective techniques to enhance your learning include keeping a journal and giving yourself time to reflect on new ideas and information. More ideas:
Set aside time to reflect on new ideas and information.
Remember that some people are fucking stupid.
Get told you’re paranoid for not accepting everything you’re told.
