If you don't care about it then you shouldn't be investing your (valuable, finite) attention in it.

So all that weak stuff, be slackful about it. Squeak by on the halfassed minimum.

And the stuff that matters, do it perfectly.

That's what every great artist/inventor/scientist/philosopher/etc has done since forever.

spiderwort ,

The greats are often famously slovenly, antisocial etc.

And here you are, pushing mere shame.

Your shame seems small, comparatively .

spiderwort OP ,

But it didn't become a big thing till the last decade, IE when we all got on social media.

A hundred genders. New pronouns. This is a new thing.

spiderwort ,

The plot is discovery and progressive revealment of big weird thing. The climax is flashback-heavy explanation of big weird thing.

spiderwort ,

Multiple simultaneous plot threads. So weak.

spiderwort OP ,

But that's impossible.

spiderwort OP ,

No. Jeez, think about it for 2 seconds.

If you summoned rain you'd be ruined forever. Exit consensual reality. Goodbye certainty about all that. You are now one of the crazies. Alone.

Even if it's real, it's scary.

You are losing your position as one of the sane adults. All of the knowledge you were fed all through your life is a little bit like poison now.

You just broke your world.

spiderwort OP ,

It might be an intelligence test. It might be a test to see if you are "in on the joke". It might be a test to see which group you belong to.

spiderwort OP ,

You really don't understand the question?

spiderwort OP ,

But seriously. I've seen a thousand conversations where everybody bitches about some person or people.

And the recipients of the bitching are always those other guys. People totally unlike you or me.

So I figured that was some gratuitous low-hanging-fruit-grabbing right there.

Which brings us to my question.

spiderwort OP ,

(Always end it with an accusation. You people are all alike.)

But seriously.

It's simple. Think about what characterizes you. Think about those who share these characteristics. Think of that group.

What horrible errors are members of that group often guilty of?
