Who you think you'd get on with best irl out of hydro and §m£ÂgØL?
-
2018-12-23 at 11:39 AM UTCYeah, §m£ÂgØL's cool and I don't have a problem with him or anything but the, uhhh, way he conducts himself would start bugging me pretty quick. As someone who's a know-it-all dickbag, other people doing the same thing is... difficult to be around.
I think I'd get along fine with hydro as long as she didn't try to give me a back alley medical operation for some reason. -
2018-12-23 at 12:07 PM UTCHts is spot on. I used to like §m£ÂgØL but his becoming a big headed asshole is exactly what's put me right off him now.

Originally posted by HTS That is because I am oh so sagacious. Seriously, if people don't agree with my assessment of §m£ÂgØL… they should.
I don't know that that's true. I mean, I will acknowledge that NEETs are prone to a certain level of bias in these matters, but consider: I don't find Lanny distasteful. He's a successful programmer with a successful career, and has made as much known to me through his posts here. Lanny, however, has never implicitly made clear that he thinks poorly of people who have not achieved the same level of success that he has. §m£ÂgØL has. Perhaps accidentally, on account of the inexperience I previously mentioned.
§m£ÂgØL publicizes every stereotypical mile marker of progress that he passes. Trying to learn a new language, trying to learn a programming language, trying to broaden his experience through travel… there is a distinct pattern with §m£ÂgØL.
Lanny doesn't really talk about his success or other people's shitty decision making regarding their life and career. As you just said, your issue seems to be with G's judgment of those less successful than himself.
My question is, why do you find that judgment so grating? It doesn't seem inherently bad, specially if it's well founded.
My speculation would be that it is because you make stupid lifestyle choices and don't like people who call you on it because they want a better reason than "I'm doing what I want", which isn't even true. -
2018-12-23 at 12:21 PM UTCboth,
because it takes 3 to 3some. -
2018-12-23 at 12:23 PM UTCNo its not that. At my age I've known many people who've travelled, learned languages and had way more professional success than §m£ÂgØLs had, and they don't bang on about it like he does. He goes on like he's done something amazing or extraordinary. In my experience he's done fuck all and is just a jumped up big headed little faggot who's got zero reason to be.

This is a reasonable assumption, until you realize that it's based around that idea that §m£ÂgØL's grounds for "calling people out" reflect some kind of objective assessment of what a "stupid lifestyle choice" is. -

yea but have you chech their internet persona ?
§m£ÂgØL irl is probably more low profile and shy than hes on here. -
2018-12-23 at 12:29 PM UTCThere is no "objectively good lifestyle" from which one must diverge to have not made "good choices", and if there was it almost certainly wouldn't be §m£ÂgØL's. So it's grating when he acts like it there is, and it is, and he's got it objectively right and his standards are universal. 🤗

2018-12-23 at 12:36 PM UTCYes, a lot of people these days seem to think theres this cookie cutter idea of what success means. And that you're not successful unless you've fulfilled a certain criteria. Success is subjective, if all I wanted in life was to live in a cardboard box under a bridge a eat out of garbage bins and I then did that, then I would be a very successful person. Each to their own.
I mean I personally got no interest in learning Chinese and sucking cocks, so to me §m£ÂgØL isn't successful at all, he's just a little cock sucking faggot. But to him the more cocks he sucks the more successful he is.

I feel pretty much the same as HTS and I don't think you can use the same explanation in my case. Do you remember that thread a while back where §m£ÂgØL was arguing for the legalization of opiates and I disagreed and he kept saying I was sheltered and like didn't have sufficient life experience (i.e. hanging out with opiate users) to comment? It's usually pretty unproductive to pass judgement on the lives of others (admittedly I do this with Bill Krozby, but that's almost entertainment at this point) but the grating thing about §m£ÂgØL is that in his book you're living wrong insofar as you're not living like him. Don't have a job? You're lazy. Have a degree and career? You're brainwashed by society. He's learning a second language? You're culturally insulated or intellectually lacking if you don't as well.
I didn't really want to show up and shit on my dude, again I don't have a problem with him and think he's pretty chill for the most part. It does seem like there's something about how he posts online at least which rubs multiple people the wrong way and I don't think "you feel judged and insecure" is a sufficient explanation. -
2018-12-23 at 1:40 PM UTCModesty, humility, and tall poppy syndrome are white tribal values, so you can't really blame §m£ÂgØL for not having them.
Most non-whites love to brag and show off, and it's a normal thing in their cultures. -

§m£ÂgØL has this bad habit of thinking we're all only what we post on Nis about. He thinks none of us have anymore living or life experiences other than what he thinks we have.
