trivial observation packaged in flowery language to sound insightful ?
tl;dr: there is too much going on in the city to give a shit.
Yes, but at least I need the flowery language sometimes to speed down my thought enough to give a shit.

Sure, but here's the thing: The inter-subjective reflectivity of perceived para-circular linearity is subject to radial normality of the urbanoid race condition reflective of mostly pervasive stray projection, which, in 93 percent of all cases, prevails as the main subject of pre-relationary trajectory analysis, as proven by the late Phil Corytorov.

>Our psychic activity still responds to almost every impression of somebody else with a somewhat distinct feeling. The unconscious, fluid and changing character of this impression seems to result in a state of indifference. Actually this indifference would be just as unnatural as the diffusion of indiscriminate mutual suggestion would be unbearable. From both these typical dangers of the metropolis, indifference and indiscriminate suggestibility, antipathy protects us. A latent antipathy and the preparatory stage of practical antagonism effect the distances and aversions without which this mode of life could not at all be led.
