Edit: I wanted to apologize after reading some of the comments. You raise some legitimate points, I realize that there is a subtle malthusian element to this chart and some of you feel like a burden already. Furthermore, you raise a good point about corporate pollution, oil companies, and how their footprint is much greater than average plebs like us.
That’s 100% valid and I don’t disagree with you at all. My “compromise” I guess would be that continue to apply pressure and protest against large corporations, but in terms of ourselves, just pick a few things you can cut down on yourself, it does not have to be everything on this list.
For example, I really prefer having animal products in my diet, but I am willing to live in a small apartment , car-free, and not go on vacation much in my adulthood. In the same way, you guys can pick what you are comfortable with in reducing and what you do not want to compromise on.
All of us have different standards of living and we are flexible on some things, and some things we are not flexible. That is alright, just consider changing what you are comfortable with, but please do not think you are a burden. Your presence and your life is valuable to me. I don’t like to demoralize people.
Not really. Actually I’m waking up from a whiskey hangover and your comment was the first thing that came across my desk. The response felt appropriate since you are in fact being an unreasonable asshole.
I bet you love riling people up from your moms basement while rubbing the Cheetos dust on your oversized belly. Did that hit too close to home? Good. Cry about it to someone else.
Again, your words don’t phase me. Maybe take it easy on the alcohol, if you can’t handle it.
Bro, at this point what are you doing? I mean seriously stop and look at the discourse of this conversation and ask yourself if you’re okay. Do you need mental health support?
My excuse is that I’m on vacation, literally being paid to fuck off on the internet and fuck around in another country. You’re so obsessed with trying to flame me back that you aren’t even willing to accept that I was trying to be nice and admit we have a misunderstanding.
This qualifies you for one of two things. You’re either an unreasonable asshole or your ego is so fragile you cannot possibly accept being wrong for an entire moment. Get some help, you need it.
I am not trying to flame you back :) It’s just weird that you would constantly try to derail instead of staying on topic. It just seems like you don’t get told “no” often enough.
Nah, this must be your first encounter with someone who is equally as big of an asshole as you.
See I’m willing to admit that. Your turn now 🤣
I don’t think you are an asshole, just maybe a bit socially under-stimulated.
Good now we’re making some progress. Now that we are here why not just admit that you were being unreasonable?
I’ve got about 4 more hours to kill so if I need to be your online therapist for a bit I’m game.
No, I think you have wasted enough of my time and this communities space.
You got it half right. I’m absolutely wasting your time dickhead 🤣
My time has been paid for so I’m good.
