You are so wrong. You are the better man, and you need to deal with it.
See, you are helping me and others be less bitter and nicer to others.

Thank you brother, I am pleased that my wine soaked poetry has had a positive influence on you, reading the last couple of posts, it apparently only affected you. I think it’s normal to be a little egocentric, it just gets a little out of hand when people are less happy. Athletes, politicians, bankers, ceo’s, cops, firemen, teachers, did I miss anyone? How about anyone that is not us gets more than they deserve and we get less than we deserve, oh, and nobody appreciates us enough.
I had it all wrong, I knew the recession was coming and I thought it would be good for us as a society. I thought shaking off a little bit of the built up greed and envy that had become omnipresent would be a good thing, I guess for some it gets worse as the times get worse. Maybe it has always been this way, perhaps threads like these are just modern day versions of the angry villagers with pitchforks and torches.
I refuse to end on a down note, this one is for you equalizer. School is starting soon, many of us have kids and may find ourselves interacting with teachers in the coming weeks. Most of them just took a pay cut, they feel as neglected as ever. Instead of making a comment about their benefits or pensions, tell them that you know they are going to do more with less and for less this year, even if it hurts you to say it, even if you just lost your own job or you you hate unions and you hate taxes even if you hate yourself, I promise you it will feel liberating. I’m gonna do it, so do it for me, do it for you, do it for them and do it for your karma. It qualifies as an unsolicited act of kindness to a stranger, so you will get something back, likely 20 fold, so there’s something in it for you. Plus if you make some insulting and morale destroying comment and karma doesn’t punish you, I’m gonna have to and then that will screw up my karma. Scratch that, I’ve been watching too many Dexter episodes, that show makes you feel all justified about dispensing justice. I retract my threat, just be nice, it will feel good. I promise.
