People would rather be an idiot surrounded by yes-men than they would be somebody who has to admit to being wrong.

But I prefer friends over "friends" any day. Fake people get fake love.

And some people buy the real thing.

Who cares?  It makes my libido go nuts, I get to sleep, and I say horrible things to random people.

So it's business as usual...Except the sleep bit.

Of course. If I wasn't agreeing with you, it wouldn't have to be called "fake love." It'd just be love.

Because They™ do have love for sale.  It's all over the place.  You can't fucking MISS it, even if you eschew television, as I do.  That new hotrod is going to guarantee you a smokin' ass new girlfriend.  If you eat at McDonalds, you'll have lots of cool friends.  If you buy her a diamond, it's forever.  Viagra speaks for itself, but They™ tell you more anyway.  If you're a smart shopper, you can get love two for one, but hurry...Supplies are limited.  Act now.

It's weird, I've been hearing more and more about this sort of glaring flaw in human wiring. Last week there were two science articles in the news about Dunning and Kruger, how democracy is doomed to select against excellent politicians because people are incapable of recognizing competence superior to their own, and how people are able to be corrected on an incorrect assumption but that over a week or so, they'll revert back to the wrong answer and assume that it's the right answer they were corrected with (meaning of course that they're definitely right and evidence backs them up).

I wonder if this is just some random glitch in psychology or if this is selected for to help social cohesion or something. But I guess that's a bit of a tangent.

You People have the right to make a mistake or have a fragile moment without some narcissistic clod getting in your face about it publically.  You have a right to drop kick them in the groin if they do.  Well, basically.  The right to do it also comes with the obligation to weigh the depth of the need and the repercussions.  However, if you decide to kick, its only right to kick with conviction.

You're not paying attention.

You People have the right to suck it up, stick it out, slug it out, cut bait, fish or buy an enormous bag of candy, even if you have an ass so wide it sweeps things from the shelves if you don't walk right down

Love©
♦♦ (47 reviews)

Not a good experience.  Bought Love© on a special discount offer, salesman convinced me to give the new model a try.  Once removed from the packaging, Love© didn't shine as brightly as it did in the store.  The patina soon chipped and faded after only short use.  Love© did not perform as suggested; it took far more effort that advertised, plus Love© was simply too heavy to carry around with me, and also too fragile to leave anywhere unattended for very long.  When I attempted to call the store, I was informed that the warranty on Love© expires when packaging was removed.  Would not buy again.
