So many feelings, so little fact. Wrapping bullshit in pretty packaging is still bullshit.
I’m sorry if your upbringing/life isn’t/wasn’t great. I really am. But where you are at 30+ years old is 100% on you and decisions you’ve made in life. It’s not the rich guy in Buena Vista bringing you down. If things are great for you, I’m happy! Again, those would be consequences of your decisions. And, as I recall, you’re married with a kid, so sounds like the latter. (I really meant this as a general “you” just was easy to use you for the sake of this point. Don’t mean to offend.)
There is a reason that every successful(subjective term, for sure) person I’ve ever met doesn’t subscribe to most of your points. They stopped being victims and took control of their lives. You’re really gonna love this... a bunch of them aren’t white or men.
This shit isn’t hard, boys. If I can do it, a redneck from a shithole, impoverished town in Eastern NC, I know most of you fuckin’ guys can. And likely a hell of a lot better than me. Frankly, nothing would make me happier than to see all of you guys kick ass in life. Hell, I’d love to connect with some of you about it. Maybe I’m old school, but I still think we can all learn a lot from each other.
I know I’m a douche. It’s who I am. But I really do love you guys, even that crusty old curmudgeon Milhouse. There’s no group of assholes I’d rather wage internet war with. I guess staring at 100+ spreadsheets since 8 PM has caused delirium to set in so you get docile DG3 tonight. Until tomorrow, gents.
