Passive aggressive insubordination against establishmentarian paradigm

Bully me, yours truly never ordained, gifted, or blessed with mien mean characteristic evoking, jump/kickstarting, representing, nor zapping friend or foe courtesy fiery intimidation if anything aura, charisma, dogma, and karma emanating, issuing, and oozing out body electric of one heretofore bookish fellow immediately facilitates characterization hashtagged lucubration and manifestation of quietude. Though true agitation transparent to passersby soul asylum of sexagenarian beleaguered with invisible mailer daemons that hound the psyche of this doggone muttering bonafide wordsmith. In argot of polymath author of these words, (the modestly noteworthy opportunistic, poetic Matthew Scott Harris) essentially he describes himself as a generic simple Simon, who never met a pieman his mellow outward demeanor belies, harbors, and represses a quaking, raging bull, and seething tempestuous storm beneath the calm, which faux placidity shields a woke monster (donned in Harris tweed and Scottish tartan) mashing everything in his wake courtesy huge feet resembling puff daddy bear paws. Though found out later in life than most muggles aforementioned humble human like bipedal hominid discovered extraordinary ability to morph from dimwitted dork dweeb into grim faced, frightful, albeit gentle unassuming pygmy up by the petard giant extraordinaire, which latent superpower never served him in good stead to ward off cruel classmates and peers tormenting teasing taxing terrorizing treatment til tears trickled down my cheeks. Every now and again, when some nasty brutish beastly lout dares to utter colorful invectives, a gradual transformation slowly but surely occurs within every baited cell (automatically summoned, triggered, and unveiled courtesy a bitterly deadly force to be reckoned with deep within these lovely bones) witnessing sudden bravado and daring do additionally helped along after I discretely chomp on powder milk biscuits (the secret recipe only known to forbidding Norwegian bachelor farmers) giving an unexpected judicious Hawaiian punch to the loathsome miscreant (never knowing what hit him) knocking said thug out in cold blood.
