Bathroom Monologue: Bright Shines the Light of Scrutiny

Yes, ghosts do watch you. If you’re curious, their view of us is best-likened to our view of celebrity news. The dead spend most of their time obsessing over gossip and tidbits of what's going on in the real world, mostly so that they can roll their eyes, say how dumb some living person is, and speculate on how much better they'd do in their place. Coincidentally, the dead don’t talk much about what they did when they were alive. If you bring it up, they get all uncomfortable and evasive, much the way you would if I started probing about your violent divorce instead of that actress’s.
