I've been thinking about some things, and it's come to my attention that we are - more or less - here to make everyone else unhappy. That sort of thing is usually frowned upon, isn't it? There are some new people that have arrived as well. So I'd like to ask you all, new or old:

Why are you here?

Why is everyone so willing to cause others misery for their own personal gain? What would make doing this sort of thing reasonable? Aren't we all just being selfish?

I'm sorry if this is intruding. This is probably a little bit hypocritical, but I'm asking out of personal interest. Please don't feel obliged to answer.

Thank you for your time.

But what's worthwhile depends on the person, doesn't it?

What do you think is "worthwhile"?

Me? I don't know. I guess other people. I think other people are worthwhile.

[oh yes she got like three triple a+ gold stars in that class]

Sorry.

I don't really want to say much more about why or what it is.

You might use it against me, right? When people find out other people's reasons like that...
