  • @ericclaptonismygod31 Yeah you're right. It's much better to live in a delusional state pretending all is perfect, ignoring what isn't and believing it will just "magically" change. Always be happy (that means pretend to be happy, no one is happy 100% of the time), always have a big fake smile on your face. Be a fake, insincere person. What a great way to live one's life.

  • Right. Be negative about everything and become a bitchy socialist! 

  • Barbara gets it.

  • @lockwoodisafaggot Ah ok. It's an excellent book and she is exactly right about the cult of positive thinking.

  • @xexixk huh me? none. i was just making a joke. i'm actually going to order this book. saw an ad for it in Skeptic,....

  • @lockwoodisafaggot That's better! But what is your issue with Barbara Ehrenreich?

  • @xexixk fucking right!

  • @21avasapi If you wish to use vulgar language, please at least learn how to spell the words first.

  • @21avasapi Try education - it's great, and like the inventor of the rear-view mirror, you'll never look back.

  • @21avasapi wot?
