I'VE MADE ANOTHER DISCOVERY!
In our own minds we are invariably the hero. We see ourselves as imbued with logic, and the people surrounding us as needing the benefit of it. In fact, we are more like animals than we care to admit. When complimented or given the opportunity we will puff up with pride and attempt to manufacture similar circumstances where we can be the hero again. A victory is a victory, be it large or small. When confronted we lash out and attack.
I have been reading a lot of my old posts. To my own horror, for the most part. I have been a giant dick. A giant, glistening cock who aimed to destroy who ever came in my sights with my superior intellect. Unfortunately, my intellect isn't so superior. I'm closing in on 30, working in an industry that I never had the slightest bit of interest in, with no room to advance. I have advanced as far as I can go. I am on the board of directors in a company that does something I could give a shit less about. I have half assed my way through almost everything and the only reason I have succeeded at this is the fact that people of even moderate intelligence don't even attempt my job. They have better things in store. And through all of this I have still considered myself to be better than you. I am not. I'm a fuck up and I never should have treated most of you the way I have. Were I not a fuck up I still should never have acted the way I did.
I apologize.
There are quite a few of you, so don't be upset if I miss you. However, I will attempt to name the people I can most remember being unbearable to.
Mudling
Spirrow
Jordan
Max
Mojo
Havoc
Splat
Rich
Alcar
Zozo
Patrick
I'm drawing a blank. I know there are more. Anyhow, this isn't an attempt to get attention and it isn't a cry for help. It's an old fashioned apology. I can't promise to be an angel. I'm still me and I have a strange sense of humor but I can say that I won't go out of my way to hurt anyones feelings.
