The only people that could honestly answer "no, I've never felt like a disappointment" are this new younger generation, the participation trophy generation. Nothing they've ever done has ever been wrong, in fact it is amazing and to be celebrated. They are the ones that can't have a discussion without screaming and yelling. They are the ones leading cancel culture. They are big on punishing not just the son for the sin of the father, but the white for the sin of 200 years ago. Your ancestor fought for the Union to end slavery? Doesn't matter. He profited from it more. They are the ones leading us into this bold new future that I for one don't think is gonna be great at all, nor is it futuristic.
But if George Orwell couldn't warn the masses what the hell chance does old Vladdy Kyrilytch have? |

Know how I know you never actually talk to young people? There are a lot of ways to describe Gen Z or younger this is not remotely one of them.

Yeah, it usually involves some wack "pronoun" like "they" and "she/they" and "their/them" and yes, there are plant and cat based pronouns, and yes, they'll cancel ya if you don't learn em. Next time you talk to those fine folks, teach them how words work, and then I can talk to them using words. Until then, they'll be mad at my words.

Why would you get punished for cross promoting a thread but not a forum?
What’s the ****ing difference?

Yeah. You want an honest answer: I’ve had plenty of success in all facets of life but the second I falter in any category I feel like some level of a failure. I feel like I’ve gotten to where I am because I outwork people, am a perfectionist, and hold myself to the highest of standards. So when I have a year in my career where I feel as if I’ve underperformed my peer group or feel like my personal relationships are suffering, I inevitably feel like a bit of a disappointment.
And it happens and it’s fine but that’s the beauty of life and having grit. You’ll never appreciate the good times as much if you haven’t had those moments of insecurity and feeling like you’ve let others down. So, yeah, use the fuel of occasionally feeling like a disappointment to motivate better things. As long as you can do that, you’re in good shape. |

Their ancestors gave them participation trophies too.
