I know the feeling, yet you did not earn shit. You were on the right side of lucky and we tell ourselves stories of justice.

No, but this matters how? It’s just an example of life being unfair.

Life is uneven like that. Try to make the best of it.

It’s their willingness to make up shit to appear more interesting that is at the heart of this. Being interesting or rather, being perceived as interesting, is core to their personality and they think that’s normal, but it is not.

I don’t know about “everybody”. It depends on your circle I guess. I know very few of these people and none of my friends are like that. I don’t give a shit about being interesting and nobody I value does either.

Oh.. this is not good. How did you see it worked fine? You did not try inserting new customers?

Thanks, there went my morning. That was quite the rabbit hole. I’m now confused and sad.

Having to choose between what is actually good for you and what is “relaxing” and then deciding to divert all available funds to “relaxation” is not a money issue.
