continued Thatfucker discussion

[anonniemouse]

Since we've been kicked off FFA for the week, please feel free to continue the anon discussion here. Apologies if this is a big flop - I've never made a DW community before!

The rules are vaguely the same as they are over on FFA. Please refrain from being too much of an asshole, making personal attacks, posting identifying information or engaging in transfail.

ETA: If there's information you'd like to see archived (journal/blog posts related to Andy, etc.), please dump it here and link to it from the main post for discussing.

Re: Andy explains why he's too special to live a normal life

Thank you for saying it so well! I've had the same annoyance with this particular story - it's just so lazy and poorly thought-out, and such a blatant example of how ignorant Andy is about the skills he claims to have!

Aside from trying to express the idea of "coffee" in Ancient Greek, how about artificial sweeteners? The concept of "syrup?" Variations in milk type/fat content - heaven forbid anyone want soy milk!

AYRT: It's things like this that almost make me feel sad for him in a weird way. It really highlights how shallow his understanding of the world is and how that's never going to change as long as he thinks it is, or should be, this easy.

Building a real, satisfying life is hard work. If you're always looking for shortcuts and shiny accomplishments-- and I do have a degree of empathy for that desire, but it's something to be outgrown-- you'll never stop being hungry and empty.

Don't know if that makes sense outside my head.
