Cool, then I guess you'll just do nothing until you die, and blame everybody but yourself.

You are capable of making stupid comments on lemmy. You are also capable of reading a book. Stop making excuses for yourself and be better.

Edit: Oh right. I'm on the adhd channel. The kings/queens of doing absolutely nothing, bitching about it, then getting mad when things get worse, have spoken.

So I guess I was wrong. Somehow.

Fuck off, you think you know me ? You would have not made it having been through half of my life. I keep fighting in hopes that things get better and KNOW my shortcomings. If you think I haven't tried reading books you are way off track. I have had a huge collection of books and LOVED reading but the fact is it takes me over a year to read a normal book as I fall asleep after two pages and have to reread every line multiple times and of course I don't remember the line I just read but you think that everyone is the way you are and assume. I guess you think I'm a lazy fuck who never tries anything to get better do you ? Fuck off and goodbye!

Let me dumb this down for you: You just wrote an entire short story about about how you cannot focus enough to read a story.

Do you understand now?

Everything about you screams main character syndrome.

Yeah, that's fair. What did I say which was incorrect, though?

You're equating reading to writing, which are distinct enough skill sets that they deserve separate conversations. I think this is less a matter of willpower and more about actual capability.

LMAO okay, yes reading and writing are two separate skills. You got me there.

You never intended to speak to me in honest. I see that now. I'm cutting out.

Yes, I do think you're a lazy fuck. I think you do, too. Goodbye.

The only possible reason you'd be this triggered by a stranger is that you see yourself in them and you don't like what you see, so I recommend you start by taking your own advice.

That's very fair! And you aren't entirely wrong. I'll try to learn something from this, but I think the best way to learn is by challenging.

You had the option to be constructive without being cruel or act like an ass, and you chose ass. Why?

Yes, I was cruel. No, I don't think I was an ass. I think I was constructive. Why do you think differently?

I guess I asked wrong, let's say that you were constructive. Why did you choose to be cruel?

Good question. I can't answer that. I probably should've been nicer.

Making assumptions about the way other people feel or think is unproductive and unnecessary. Maybe you want them to be mad, to fight back, but you're just some words on a screen right now, so it only comes off as being an asshole.

If you can't build yourself up without tearing others down, you're an ass.

But I've tried nothing and I'm all out of ideas!
