I find it funny that a lot of things I enjoy is considered to be Tory then when we do the anonymous polls about how much we all earn I’m always in the poorest category.

I’m a shit Tory, everyone else on this board is a shit socialist, with their big salaries.

I’ve made two posts in this thread where I appear to be inadvertently channeling my inner @Bamnan and now I’m picking a fight with you?

I’m starting to feel a bit unnerved.

It’s extremely tempting to continue this in character, but no good will come of it.

Just find the endless obsession with being considered a Tory deeply odd.

I wonder if there’s a right wing forum somewhere with posters worrying whether they’re too labour

I think originally this thread was a nice light-hearted attempt to get us to all discuss the way we all (along with everyone else) fail sometimes to live up to our own ideals. If you have quite strong ideals then it’s even more likely you’ll fail to meet them.

Then it got a bit more serious, which was a shame, but hopefully we can get it silly again.

if we all just resolved to take on at least the average amount of suffering in the world into our hearts we could work together to make life beautiful and meaningful for everyone :heart:

If we took on the average amount of suffering in the world our lives would definitely not be beautiful

I guess it comes down to if you believe a sense of injustice and kindness is inbuilt in someone or not. Personally I don’t and I think it is practice.It is good to sharpen your sense of injustice in the world sometimes

Yeah, I bet there’s quite a sharp drop off in terms of marginal enjoyment above a relatively low price point.

The wine as investment rather than drinking concept is a weird one that I can’t really get my head around, but I think people here are probably right that above a certain price in restaurants they’re mostly bought in pissing contests…

He should have mowed his lawn more regularly the lazy sod.

yeah not right away but the sense of injustice and support might be stronger and people’s best natures come out in those sort of times. Look at the support people get on here if someone’s had a bad day or had something stolen etc
