especially your own code.

“This is obvious” I said. “Surely I won’t need to comment this,” I said.

I admitted I could be wrong in my initial comment, if you’ll recall.

Can’t wait to see how you handle rejection, considering how you handle advice.

I’m gonna be real, I’m going to continue making fun of these ridiculous assumptions whether you like it or not, get used to it or block me I guess.

Glad to see you found a hobby, I suppose.

Already have a few. It’s how I met my wife.

Or you could get angry and defensive and start catastrophizing, I guess. Is that fulfilling?

People who tell you to get a hobby are only telling you step 2. Step 1 is give up.

The reason you hear “get a hobby” so often is because it works. But you’re not told how it works and why giving up first is so important. Getting a hobby works because you develop a passion and skills, which are attractive. But it also broadens your social circle. You meet more people directly, yes, but you also make new friends. Friends who might just know someone who is single and looking and perfect for you. You think you’re the only one who thinks apps and bars suck?

And the reason Step 1 is give up is because ulterior motives aren’t really a good reason to pursue a hobby, and because that shit shows. You wind up being that guy at the D&D table. Desperate at best and predatory at worst, neither of which are attractive.

If someone shows an interest or sets you up with a friend, great! But that’s no longer your goal. You’ve given up, remember? Better yourself and make more friends. You’ll be more attractive and have more opportunities.

If it doesn’t work, ok. Then some unc on the internet was wrong. Wouldn’t be the first time. But it’s clear that you’re not satisfied with the results of your current approach.

Unfortunately, too many people (and almost all US politicians) consider “let them die of poverty” to be the correct and moral choice.

They don’t tell rich people who do unnecessary jobs to go do something productive instead.

Hitting on people at the gym is tacky. At best.

Glorified hatchbacks with a lift-kit and a cult.

I think it’s because it typically falls into the pattern of “This is something I feel I have to say, but here’s three paragraphs of what I actually believe.”

Starbucks has improved in quality if it can be described as nice.

They expressed grave concerns about gitmo back in 2008. Gave up at the first setback. It’s still open.

Ring ring ring ring ring ring ring, decapicone.

I need a jynnan tonnyx.

Just the sort of employee we want here at Moore Door & Supply.

Maybe they’re trying to weed out all actual applicants because they’re hiring the boss’ kid.

Meanwhile, Dick Van Dyke is just happy that he can play with Lego again.

Ah. That makes sense.
