You know what really drives me insane. It's the reason I sometimes entertain notions that maybe there really is a hell and I'm in it. This shit is glaringly obvious to me. Now I'm no einstein but when something is that obvious, it doesn't take a retard to figure it out. So how come billions of people (many of whom are presumably capable of reading and writing and feeding themselves and shit, are utterly blind to such an obvious fact. And then it occurs to me they're not really people. They're some kind of automatons and the world would be better if they were all dead.

So I'm not actually certifiably insane (anymore) and I know to start murdering people in cold blood because they seem like automata is some really screwy and twisted thinking so acting on it is totally out the question. Not just morally but rationally. I'm fine with this but this niggling feeling persists. So every now and again I turn on the teevee and I watch them killing themselves and each other en masse, for the most hilariously dumb reasons that you couldn't even make up and it makes me feel a bit better.

This is my guilty secret.  :oops:

If this were hell, nothing would work right.  Not even the systems used to punish people...I don't mean governmentally, though they are included.  I mean the day-to-day grind. 

Would you guys keep it down? The game is on.

Individual humans are ok, and capable of rational thought. Groups of humans are dumb, dumb, DUMB. The problem is, due to tv and the internet, we're always a group now.
I had not realised that. It explains quite a lot.
Though for some reason some groups do work, it is the strangest thing.
I just can't think of an example at the moment.

And for the generation that came up with that already in place, it seems to be beneficial.

Not so much for the people who didn't start out with it.  My generation never understood "taste tribes", but they sure as fuck formed them.  Blindly.

Individual humans are like individual termites; ineffectual and short-lived.

The point stands, though.  Humans are not designed to operate as single units, even socially.  Problem with THAT, though, is the 8 person rule.

Well, thats the thing... single humans may not be so hot, but big groups of them are worse.

I dunno.  I am a city mouse.  I operate better amongst millions of people.  I know my standard of living is higher this way.

And yeah, problems also magnify, but I think the benefits far outweigh them.
