Its really weird so many people are taking this seriously & trying to find flaws. Im pretty sure its a joke. Cynical yes but still a joke

Gonna be honest, I ONLY took it seriously enough to attack it because enough people were like "THIS IS TOTALLY TRUE! HAPPINESS IS A LIE!"

Also, you can emigrate to another one? Since when? Countries don't hand out citizenship like candy. I wish they did.

It's "bullshit" because it only applies to short men and tall women. Even then it's an exaggeration ofc, there are always exceptions.

A lot of these sound like high school to me. Luckily, that social structure was not a representation of real life.
Koantum
You don't get wealthy by sleeping in. Sleeping in when you're wealthy is usually a luxury acquired by hard work.
Dhell
In most of the cases it's aquired by an inheritance, incredible luck or scamming other people. Very few people get rich by honest hard work.
Koantum
I agree that luck always plays a part, and inheritance and scamming does play a role for some people, but not most.

My family's wealthy but my dad always woke up extra early to work and slept very late. He was a workaholic, and that's how he got wealthy.

and now he can sleep in, so the post is correct. It didnt say sleep in to get wealthy

No, he still works. He never really stopped and he's over 60 now, doing private projects. A workaholic works till his body won't allow it.

Someone's a cynical bastard that needs to get out more. Also, money is not the root of all evil. Money is a tool used to quantify exchange.

SaintLuciferVonAllah
Bullshit either way.It only applies if one is a shallow shell of a human.Me thinks OP has some issues to work out.
NokiaRiotShield
It has some value because the phenomenon is partially instinctual because of sexual dimorphism between average male and female height.
NokiaRiotShield
It's obviously not always true and there's a ton of exceptions. It's just one of many things we factor into attraction.
MichaelJordanAsHimselfInSpaceJam
You'd be surprised at how far a good personality and awesome sense of humor can get you. I'm 5'5'' BTW.

As a 6'4" guy, I think we have different ideas of what short is than the rest of the world. 5'4" is a little below average, not short.

Everyone has their preferences and that's fine, but not all tall girls will shoot a guy down just for being shorter than them.

It's just that they always say it wrong (and sometimes *also* miss the point of the quote)

Are you just looking at things and saying that you love them? Do you really love taint or are you just saying it cause you saw it?
Candymostdandy
I promise I love taint.
PuppiesStartedEveryWar
Maybe you're worldview is tainted by excessive positivity. That's just as dangerous you know, or more dangerous.
fleacollerindustry
Too much of anything isn't good. But it's hard for one to claim ownership over the truth if they've got too much of ONE thing.
nothinbutlovebro
More dangerous? Certainly not. Excessive pessimism or optimism both result in passivity.

Optimism in general is associated with happiness, better mental and physical health, and more satisfying relationships. Pessimism... isn't.

thank you i was about to say half this is bs
southboundpachyderm
Hate character limit, I'd love to have an intelligent conversation on dark worldview vs bluntness. But it is a darker than average view..
channelranger
The world is both beautiful and disgusting place. It all depends on what you want to see in it. Cynic or optimist, you're still delusional.
RockThunderheart
To paraphrase George Bernard Shaw: Accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.
southboundpachyderm
Not that I'm disagreeing! lol Cheers +1

For someone who hates when people thrust their advice on you, this person sure likes to thrust advice at people
jaypeg
you had to login to have it 'thrusted' at you
samuelcoffey
Well i think it seems like that because they are only giving the dark parts because there are good and bad parts about the world we live in
SwedishRationalist
Yup. Cynical, pessimistic and depressing. I don't need this. Downvote.
jaypeg
if you say so
LilReapsy
I can agree with all of these pics though. yes im depressed and misanthropic. :/

I prefer it over the happy-go-lucky unicorns and rainbows that taint from the other side of the spectrum. Better than getting your hopes (1)
MyPalmsSpaghettiKneesWeakArmsSpaghettiTheresVomitOnMySpaghetti
...up, having them crushes, being disappointed as the outcome of unlimited optimism. Namsayin'? (2/2)
MyPalmsSpaghettiKneesWeakArmsSpaghettiTheresVomitOnMySpaghetti
(Crushed*)
Wyrmknave
I dunno. I assume everything will be fine, and I believe humans are inherently good. I haven't been disappointed yet. Maybe it's in attitude
MyPalmsSpaghettiKneesWeakArmsSpaghettiTheresVomitOnMySpaghetti
Haha, maybe you're right. Cheers

About half of these can be explained by/simplified to "we judge others by their actions and ourselves by our intentions"

I've always preferred this summary of sociology.

This is perhaps the most succinct way I've ever heard this presented. Thank you, I'm going to steal it and give you an upvote. <3

Lol it's cool: I stole it from reddit anyways

I know, right? Not a hint of bias here. Nope, this is pure realism.
verisimilitude
Hence muh name :D
CertifiedTintinologist
There is no such thing as pure realism in thought and ideology. Too many variables.
CommanderSheperd
We take other's thoughts which are just the best choice of words they could come up with at the time, and try our best to interpret. 1/2
Nineteenletterslong
Does that include your comment? or everything except that?
CommanderSheperd
no
CommanderSheperd
I have yet in my 26 years on earth been able to truly tell someone with words how I feel about something. It's truly frustrating.
CommanderSheperd
giving people the benefit of the doubt when doing this almost always leads to deeper understandings, but 2/3(i lied, sorry)

"I'm not a pessimist, I'm just a realist." - Every pessimist ever
TheLordLucifersBannedAccount02
I'm a pessimist.
ProfessorFlora
I agree, but on the other hand it's one thing to think pessimistic shit and another to realize how horribly true it is, right here and now.
TheMungoman
This is the truest ever.
TheOneWhoWasLeft
Because from an optimist's point of view every other view is pessimistic.
nothinbutlovebro
And from a pessimist's view, everyone is an idealist. Everyone thinks they're the realist.
TheOneWhoWasLeft
Not everyone. But every optimist is an idealist even though they might not want to admit it.
eskamobob1
The only way to be a realist is to remove emotion and make everything simple action and possible consequences.
FlamedLion
Sacrifice humanity to benefit humanity?
vauhtihirmu
Doing so also excludes a good portion of reality, so you aren't really a realist since you only consider a part of reality.
