Thanks for having a good attitude. Way too many folks these days… are whiny and entitled and think nothing should be enjoyed by anyone if they can’t enjoy it. I’m athletic and I enjoy difficult/complex video games… and it’s always bizarre to me how some folks get some angry at me for enjoying things they don’t/can’t. I can’t play grandmaster level chess or a musical instrument, but I’m not angry about it.
I’m 75% through and have had very few issues with the game man. But yeah, bosses take time to learn and figure out. Takes me about a dozen tries per boss then I’m smoking them.
Learn the patterns, equip the right buffs, and it’s really not that hard.
most proms are held in a the gym with a shitty dj and shitty catered food. but you’re not gonna see that portrayed in media. parents drop them off, there are no limos.
because the rules only apply to bad people. good people don’t need no rules!
she’s still around. she’s just getting old and getting crazier. she’s likely mentally ill and not treating it.
i met her once. she’s a completely insane nutbag whose only joy in life is her internet sex celebrity status.
ok, now we have moved to ‘if you don’t volunteer you are less than as a person.’
seriously, volunteering has zero to do with one’s moral worth in life. tons of good people never volunteer. lots of shitheads do. volunteering isn’t some inherently moral/good act. lots of people volunteer for shitty reasons and do shitty things.
the reality is that incompetent managers love to blame their employees for not doing shit they never told them to do.
That isn’t true at all. Plenty of volunteers are shitty people.
A group I was recently with just had a huge scandal because someone who joined had a sexual offender records and we were working with kids… he basically fucked everyone over and the entire org had to stop operations for months until every member clear background checks.
My father was a great anti-role model.
I tried my hardest to not be like him and his shittiness.
it’s usually simpler than that. conservatives pay more than liberals.
i know a few leftists who have now gone hard right… because they got paid more to spout conservative conspiracy nonsense than they did liberal/socialist stuff.
bingo. they require attention and effort and you might get something out of them…
social media… is designed to require neither… just like reality tv or candy crush… which are junk.
and same with food. a good meal requires attention and effort to make… cup o noodles requires almost none, but has very little nutritional value beyond hitting your salt and fat receptors.
pretty much.
people who have it seem to be convinced everyone else has it. it’s a cognitive bias. just like white folks think racism isn’t real because they don’t experience it.
vast majority of people do not care about having a ‘setup’. they are bike bicycle nerds who will spend tons of time and money to get their ‘bike fit’ right. a proper bike setup is for people who spend $1000s on bikes, not your average consumer who spends under $500 and sees a bicycle as a toy.
they go to walmart, or a bike shop, buy the cheapest bike that looks cool, and ride it. and then stop riding it because it hurts their butt/back/wrists, or they just get bored of it.
you aren’t supposed to sit on the saddle over bumps. you lift up your butt and use your knees/hips to as the suspension.
A properly fitted bike saddle should not make you sore during normal use.
Most folks who ride a bike ride a crappy soft foam saddle that makes your butt sore after more than 10m of use.
Good saddles cost over $50+, most folks are buying entire bikes that cost about $100-200… on which the saddle costs $5-10.
sounds like you only focus on pop culture bullshit.
try getting into shit that isn’t designed to entertain you. classics, art films, art music, etc
do women approach you or flirt with you?
are you sure?
people generally tell comforting myths and lies to themselves and collectively because the harsh reality of the situation is too terrifying to accept.
people also generally believe that ‘one day i’ll be rich’. even though they are 45 and working at a cashier in a gas station.
it’s also easier to tell yourself comforting BS because then you don’t have to take action and realize you are mostly a product of the choices you have made.
What gets me is a lot of people in the education world are starting adopting this bullshit attitude. My city removed advanced level math courses from middle/high school because it was ‘unfair’ to students who lacked the talent/drive to be good at maths… basically handicapping everyone because a subset of the students were bad at math. Basically nobody is allowed to be better than someone at something and pursue their talents… because that is ‘mean and hurtful’. WTF
