Where I Am Today

 Up to probably 2004-to-2010.....I never knew:

- People's religious group

- People's political feelings

- People's credit card use/debt

- People's personal woes/spirals

- People sexual tendencies, affairs, or fetishes

At some point in this 2004-to-2010 era....the 'trap-door' opened up and you started to notice each of these stages being some public discussion.

I really didn't need to know so-and-so's liaison-situation. I didn't need to know you were stupid-enough to be $60,000 in credit card debt. I didn't need to know you were into some new age religious group.  

As each month went by....things accumulated (call it another burden that I needed to hear....still quiet over, and respect someone one-notch les).

As much as I thought around 2019....it'd peaked....I was wrong.  Added to the list of burden...I had to now assign a dimwit-status or stupidity-index to people.  Even if you had a degree, were a doctor/rocket scientist, or were some noted 'expert'....I had to now deal with you.

Yeah, I am short on patience....I mute the TV a lot....I probably am 300-percent more skeptical today than 30 years ago....and disregard medical advice about 50-percent of the time.    

If you have demons in your head, or need to demonize things constantly....you probably ought to stay 10-feet away from me.  If you are tangled up with some astrologist gal dressed in trampy/slutty outfits....don't come to me about dating advice.  If you got taken last night by aliens....just accept it, and don't be asking me about alien probes. 

In essence....just live a simple life, and avoid making things complicated.
