May. 22nd, 2007 02:53 pmI've been more obsessed with Pokémon than Sonic lately. Reasons may or may not be so obvious why.
Why is it in our culture it's a virtue to be an asshole? That hatred makes you powerful, makes you a messiah, makes you all-knowing and "cool"? That people are praised for snarking and being cruel to others and tearing them to shreds to build themselves up, that being an asshole gets them rewards and friends? Why do I feel like I've been born in the wrong time period?
It's... why?
