my attempts to point out that maybe one of the cardinal sins oughtn’t be exaulted as a desired value fell on deaf ears. we are all about the “feeling good about yourself” now.

my point being: drop the low self esteem and go ahead with the irritating grandiosity. in a few years you’ll be a model to which we can all aspire. even more so, i mean.
