this is disgusting

Some are, some aren't. Some I tend to agree with:
"There’s always another level. Just be content knowing that you are still better off than most who have ever lived."
"It’s ok to trade the possibility of your 80s and 90s for more guaranteed fun in your 20s and 30s."
"Measure yourself only against your previous self."
"Staying angry is a waste of energy."
"If she expects the person you are 20% of the time, 100% of the time, then she doesn’t want you."
That said, many are, to me anyway, superficial or pointless. A few I find borderline offensive.
Admittedly, many of the things on this list are pretty egregiously sexist or classist, or the like, but anything that advises, "Measure yourself only against your previous self," kind of axiomatically can't be "disgusting".
Seriously, how is this even relevant to hacker news? It fosters no discussion, and is full of horrific sexist advice.
It's hardly sexist. It's got a lot of human truths with a healthy dose of humor to boot
Can you elaborate why is this disgusting? Is it because it is coming from GS?

Because dessert isn't only for women, damn it.
