You're a smart guy, but you're also proud of your smartness.
I guess you missed the part where you were proud of your common sense when you replied to B_C and asked your question.
Touché, yes, I'm proud by nature, I didn't mean to come off that way just then but I'm sure I did.
I screw up a lot of things.
I actually was writing that as much to me as to you (because you're almost likeable lol).
because you're almost likeable lol
In real life I am well liked and respected by my family, friends and colleagues because they know I will tell them straight, tell them accurately and most importantly be there to help them or back them up when they need it. Some may call me an asshole, but I'm always the one they call when they need real help and real follow through so I'm perfectly fine with that. It tells me that I must be doing something right even if those who don't like me all the time will still reach out to me for help or truth when they need it.
I believe it, and that's not a bad place to be, not at all.
