Meh, for every future McDonalds-eating lawyer driving an SUV which he had 'no choice' to buy because his wife's just had their third, who tried veganism for a week in college because some hot girl he knew went on protest marches and he figured it would also subvert that evil, comfortable, desk-bound, white-collar destiny his parents worked hard their whole lives to to try and provide for him, who, frustrated by his inability to change the world on his own, having assumed with utter hubris that he ought to have been able to, alluded to suicide online because he presumably took it for granted that the world owed him something awesome and it turned out he was probably not going to get it...
...for every one of those, there's someone who gives a damn about more than themselves.
Good luck with your next trope, Chris. I do hope it isn't unabombing, as some of us here folk kinda like the neat way society evolves a little more gradually. Come back any time though; we're all in this together. Even the nihilists.
End of thread.
