Sounds fun, I'm in. Didn't ask for the ride/responsibility and the only reason it hasn't ended by now is sheer cowardice

Why did you come here to express the opinion that that sounds good?

The church door was open, that simple. Many conversions lately?

I walk by countless open doors. I only enter the ones that I have some interest in. This door contains other people, who you claim to have no interest in.

No interest in spending a lifetime of service, happy to waste time with them [and usually without]. Guess I don't need to be so selective ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not that it matters, but why did you choose to start proselytizing?

I responded to an assertion that I viewed as faulty. It was never illogical or inconsistent for me to do so because I never claimed to have no use for other people. You said a life in a vr that has no effect on the world sounds fun. I never tried to claim that. I am responding "bullshit". As in, merely being here, expressing something to other people instead of just thinking it to yourself belies that claim.

Do you have just a single hobby? This is shitposting, not meaningful impact on the world (lol). I'll play VR later if you're so worried.

I replied for much the same reason, calling bullshit. It doesn't mean anything.

Anyway, keep up the truly good work. I will admit you're a better human. I'm not beyond admitting selfishness, I just never claimed consistency.

So... you can express your opinion and it's a reasonable thing to do, but when I do the same it's not a reasonable thing to do.

Perfectly reasonable, just disagree. Not like this matters, either, though. Not expressed to convince: catharsis. Meetings, you know? [burning time, thanks for going along]

I might have fallen asleep if not for this thread; truly awake for too long. But there I go, overly participating again. Oops. Count this as your good deed for the day. Tribe remains whole, or something.
