This but also, at least once a week, slap someone. As a little treat to yourself.

Do you know how much this would actually help me in my life?

Like I'd wait for the perfect moment every week where someone very definitely needs slapped.

Oh man a weekly guaranteed slap system would be actually really useful

In all three of those scenarios, vigorous exercise can serve as a reboot too.

If you are ever wanting to support someone do NOT start a sentence with "Maybe you are just". It comes off as trivializing the thing you are discussing.

Maybe you are just right about that.

What if you think everyone is an asshole including yourself?

My problem is that everyone around me is dumb.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

When I was younger, I had this impression, too. One day I realised that the problem might be me, not them: what if they are not dumb, but I'm just a bit more intelligent? This realisation helped me a lot to have a better relationship with my fellow humans.

The end of the second paragraph is usually not there. People are fast to dismiss this. Maybe you dont like the culturally accepted dunking on outsiders or are sensitive to discrimination. Depending on your environment, you‘ll get shit on quickly.
