I agree with this. I hang out at this one bar and this 22 year old I talk to really thinks he "gets it." Incredibly cocky and arrogant a lot of times. He's fun to talk to but when he get's on a major BS kick I gotta tune him out. I'm only 5 years older than him but the contrast in experiences is stark to say the least. It really makes me wonder if I was ever that arrogant too.

“When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.”

Patronization is a strong suit many people (including myself) have nicely ironed at all times in our closet. Nothing is more fun than to put that suit on.

The question is, can we tolerate flawed people? Can we laugh about it? Can we let them rant and wear that suit from time to time?

I applaud the creativity, but the phrase “strong suit” originated from bridge and refers to a different kind of suit.

I realize I’m probably being patronizing myself by pointing that out. As Bart Simpson once said, “The ironing is delicious.”

I think it's a thing with liberalism as well though which has a huge overlap with marijuana use. Some people tend to think they know what's better for others without really considering the impacts it may have. Then you add in the existential paranoia brought on by being high all the time and you start espousing unconditional support for ideas that soothe your fears.

That's hardly limited to that demo. Also generally chronic users aren't going to get that existential paranoia you get from casual use

yeah true. I think it'd be best for others if they stopped being liberals.

(\s btw)
