The Most Direct Emotion

I once heard a man identified as being a “jazz musician,” and having never heard of such a thing I approached him and asked, “What does it take to be a jazz musician?”  And he said, “Don’t bug me, Pops,” and I didn’t.  Am I now a jazz musician?

For the ordinary, hate is probably the most felt, direct and clear cut emotion, (next, of course, to stupidity).
