          not always, i’m currently ignorant of the world news, i made the choice to become ignorant becuase my own head is making me sad enough, and i do not need the aid of 20 daily articles about mass killings of babies, oppressing minorities, or whatever bullshit the US is up to this week

    Well, I recently lost, like, 50% of my credibility as an intellectual as I stopped smoking. So I guess I am now somewhere in between both ends.

    I feel like there’s a bunch of parallel narratives to be unwoven here, and I’m hearing many of them at the same time.
    My compliments to the meme chef.

    Does the advanced version make you yell at anyone trying to interact with you before 10 am because you’ve come from a long line of advanced users?

    I started at advanced, I was born hating everything and scowling at imbeciles who didn’t think about the world. I am trying slowly to get back down to “beginner.” It’s been difficult.

    Sounds to me like you have serious problems with addiction but instead of doing something about it you’re seeking validation via internet points and telling yourself that your addiction somehow makes you better and smarter than other people?
