Not so bad then
One nice thing about having losers entrain is that they make you look good in comparison. When you’re feeling worthless and miserable, you can reassure yourself that it could be a lot better. It’s like the appreciation you feel for good health after recovering from a debilitating or painful illness.
Reading that, I see that I wrote “better” instead of “worse”, without realizing it. That is my idea of truly funny. So paint me Eeyore eh?
