Disingenuity

I have failed at keeping up here the past few months.  I almost said "utterly" failed, but I think the abyss lying between this entry and April conveys the utterness of the failure well enough.  Anyway, to try to kickstart things a little, some thoughts on the word "disingenuous."  I've decided it's my least favorite word; I mean, I actively despise it.  I've noticed it used repeatedly for years, and it always grated on me, though I never put into thought why.  But the other day it dawned on me: when used, it's almost always ironically hypocritical.  I'll leave it to you to muse on the reasons why.  Happy Fourth!
