Fuck Being Nice For The Sake Of Being Nice!

I am not that great at verbal communication. As an introvert, conversations serve as punishment for me being born a human who must interact with the world. I find it intrusive when people try to get to know me by asking a million questions about my life, and it makes me extremely uncomfortable and irritated. I am not sure why the intricate details of my personal life is considered to be appropriate conversation topics in American society, but I digress.

I can see how so many people used my social anxiety against me in the past to snag an interview with me about my personal business, usually to compare themselves to me.

Ugh.

Simply put, I am tired. People are mentally draining as hell. Whenever I meet someone they are usually attempting to intimidate me with their money, accolades, and educational accomplishments. Truth be told, I am not impressed by anything that isn’t mine. People really enjoy talking about money they’re not giving me! I mean, it’s cool that you have these things. Congratulations! But again, I really don’t care. On top of that, the fact that anyone would try to impress or intimidate me means I have something far valuable than anything they possess.

Okay, I lied. I am impressed by simple yet complex things that are not recognized as anything worth mentioning in our society…
