Despite *knowing* which is which, my brain still insists it's the other way round.

Yeah, that's a pretty far of the mark assessment. I don't evaluate the worth of a person on how much money they make. That would be quite shallow. Plus, as an ophthalmic surgeon, I'm not doing so bad myself in the money department, that I should envy another's "wealth".saysadie wrote:I gotta say... that comes across as a touch bitter. It's almost "bitter cause they're only rich because they're pretty while I'm soooo smart but only make [insert amount here]" bitter.But I allow that I may be misenterpreting due to the ****** mood I'm in.

Awesome!
.That's a pretty big judgement to make about someone you don't even know, btw
I suppose that's true. Best to spare one's pity for those deserving of it.I don't even presume to pity the people I know personally in ****** circumstance, because (in most cases) they got themselves into whatever mess they're in. If they need help, sure. Pity? No.
Certain generalities arise with the territory one's in, sometimes as a natural response to certain pressures. Many beautiful people have security issues because they define themselves by how they look. Subconciously, they determine their worth on what others think of their appearance. Of course, not all beautiful people. But many. I think I do have pity for these people because in many ways, it's not their fault. Parents push them into beauty contests and pageants at a young age. They are constantly being told in the formative teenage years about how beautiful they are. It's hard to combat that, really. How do you keep a level head about it at such a young age? Without proper guidance, it's got to be tough.You're covering a ton of people with a blanket statement, that's kind of unfair. But I do the same thing sometimes, usually when I'm feeling insecure about something.
See, I'm all for a little nip and tuck when one is older, if it will make one feel better. Long as it isn't too dangerous or extensive, go for it. It's your body. I plan on going for a lift when things start to head south, myself.
True.I try not to waste pity on anyone. There's rarely need for it. If she's living the life she wants, all the more power to her. If there's pressure, well, she got herself into it. Like all, it's a multifaceted situation- depending on how you look at it, there's probably just as many pros as there are cons.

Or do one big poo in the morning and another one in the afternoon. I bet they weren't even excited by and then subsequently disappointed by Star Wars Prequels. Or have a glass full of spare change near their beds. That they don't have.
