"Yes, it is a conventional belief..." - I'm not drunk now, and it has occurred to me since that it is absolutely conventional, there are nuances to the way I believe it which are often disagreed with, but you probably don't want to hear them, they might sound too much like an academic treatise, and I should hate for you to have to do some more 'grading.'
"But this isn't the only school of thought."
No, but it seems to me to be the right one. If I am having this much trouble reconciling what I think is the right (read correct, good or whatever you want) mental attitude (i.e. this one) with the real world it cannot but fuck me over further to start trying to impose other ideals upon myself. Pragmatism is a very intellectually dull outlook and I find it even more depressing than not being able to live the life that I want rather than a pseudo-life which has been semi-imposed upon me.
Hypersensitive isn't the same as being a cunt. Hypersensitive is being very, very able to detect something. You clearly didn't detect the fact that it was not meant as an insightful quote. It was a quote which said in four words what I was saying in many. According to your complaint of the verbosity compared to the lack of content this should have been welcome. It gave me a title and it rounded the rant off, not a clincher, just a summary. It may be a cliché to finish with a song lyric, but then so is claiming to dislike something just because it is overplayed. Offense was taken, but has since been given away to someone else.
