A Complaint About PD and all of You People

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Thats rather disappointing. I was hoping a blaze of glory and some sort of rant about THE MAN

Nope.  He was just unable to, you know, work.

He's waiting for that glorious day, when The Man is struck down, and nobody has to do anything anymore.

An anarchist, unable to actually work?

WHAT A SURPRISE!

Shit would just grow/manufacture itself, if The Man wasn't being GREEDY.

I had an anarchist flip me off and yell at me today because he was turning left, and I was also turning left, and I didn't let him cut me off.

FUCK TRAFFIC LAWS! YEAAAAARGH!!!

Traffic laws are just THE MAN, trying to KEEP ME DOWN!

Fuck you guys, I'm gonna write Angela Davis and get her to tear up all the stoplights.  You don't think she could?  SHE COULD DO IT WITH HER BARE HANDS, AND THEN BEAT THE COPS TO DEATH WITH THE POSTS!

Um.

How is it possible that we don't have an Angela Davis emote?

If you turn  360º you're facing the same direction, btw.

I won't have the laws of geometry become a victim in this endless bickering!

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Welcome to rlyeh trip where the geometry is all wrong all the time.

I hate threads like this because I'm exactly the kind of person who does this shit ALL THE TIME, but you're right.

The problem isn't that I'm worried you'll all judge me, though. In my case, I judge myself before my fingers even hit the keys. I'll have something in my head, and by the time the page with the text field loads I'll have convinced myself that it would have been horrible and wasn't worth writing down anyway.

One thing I've been thinking about lately is that maybe I've been taking some of your writings a little too hard to heart, Dok. It occurs to me that most of your arguments are targeted at arrogant, entitled 21st-century monkeys: exactly the sort of people who need to be knocked down a peg.
It's becoming gradually more and more evident to me that I have the opposite problem. I'm told in meatspace that I'm brilliant, but I find it impossible to believe. Everything I say must be the vapid jabberings of a repulsive subhuman retard. In my mind, this is the only conceivable possibility.
I'd like to post more. I gather that my content's satisfactory. But I find it impossible regardless.

Arrogant, entitled 21st-century monkeys will INFECT you if you let them.

Yes, I agree.
My problem, however, is that I equate basic self-confidence and self-respect with arrogance, and deliberately avoid it at all costs.

Next time that happens, take yourself out back and punch you until you stop being so fucking critical.

It's the only thing you'll understand.

You are functioning on bad signal.

This seems probable. "Insufferable narcissist vs. absolute doormat" reeks of false dichotomy.
At the same time, it seems to be fundamentally ingrained in my psyche. Maybe it's because confidence is simply a foreign concept to my mind.

EDIT: No. Bullshit on my part. Under my "TigerwiseVillain" alias, elsewhere on the internet, I have plenty of confidence. It just isn't evident to the rest of me.

BALLS AND FUCKING RUBBISH.  You are not a computer, to be programmed.  You are not write once/read many.  You are a PEOPLE and PEOPLE can change their psyche.

Well, yeah. Problem is, I need to figure out how to do it first.
It's like you said. Conditioning. Takes a lot to break that shit.
