On Entitlement



Dear Xxxxx,

We as civilized human beings enter into social contracts with each other every day. We forgo our freedom to be douches with each other so that we can casually greet a 'friend' without having him bare his teeth.

What many do not take into consideration when they shoot their mouth off after a 'bad day' is that by violating that decorum, they forfeit that social contract and all its future bounties - the ability to share, plead, commiserate, or laugh with that other individual. In a moment of fierce anger, one can completely isolate oneself, predisposing one to further anger.

What's worse is that those who are innocent of this egregious behavior are likewise isolated. Both sides suffer even when only one is responsible.


And above all else, it's a dick thing to do. You're not the only one dealing with crap, and you sure as shit wouldn't like me to bitch you out for no reason, especially if you were just saying 'hi.'

You're not special. The world doesn't stop when you're in a bad mood. What
can stop is me giving two shits about you.

Ugh. I hate it when people get the fucking wrong side of the argument and then get so stubborn about it. I had a recent friendship break over MORION WORM because of this. I even had a witness.

And btw. OWNTTTTT.
