How exactly does one discourage an impression, anyway? Make fun of its poetry? Tell it that it's not college material? Fail to act excited when it wins a trophy? Is this one of those things that I would know if I spent more time connecting with the world by sitting all alone in front of the tube? The suspense is totally killing me!
Posting in a tone that's not hostile, condescending and borderline misanthropic would be a start. Work on that for a while & then we'll get into the finer points.
