Well, you've just managed to insult your readers and everyone who will ever care about them, so congratulations on that, you must be very proud.

I have exactly the opposite experience, and it has been a source of extreme stress in my life. Perhaps you should stop assuming your own life is representative of everyone else's.



It's a well known psychological fact that people overestimate the amount of attention other people give to them. Besides, I was only quoting a song (by garbage).

I'd answer your question, but the fact that you were quoting some obscure song instead of arguing an actual point tells me it would be a waste of time. Go back to reddit.


It's a song by Garbage called Medication.
