I have learned that utilitarians, especially of the ultrarighteous HN breed, cannot be reasoned with. Therefore, I have come to take this environment less seriously and have become, at times, obnoxious. But recounting all the hamfisted downvoting, intellectual cruelty and self conceit that masquerades as kindness here, I really shouldn't be here.

PS: while I definitely don't take pride in being an HN pinata, it's simply too easy to become one with any deviation from the new collective. Not pride - merely graceless resignation
