A grumpy old person because I'm too exhausted to plan a costume, and I don't know how to have fun.
Wouldn't that be all Kraft Singles ever?
I find it unattractive to use logical fallacies like ad hominem to try to attack someone because of feeling threatened. But I do find it amusing when such fallacies fall so short. I don't care if I'm attractive to you. I have much more important things to be. Being unattractive to people who would find AI attractive is something I'm rather proud of. It means I'm doing something right.
Fortunately for one of us, insecurity actually isn't one of my faults, or my feelings would be almost as hurt as yours seem to be.
I think it sounds more like a bunch of men feeling threatened by the fact that women find being attracted to imaginary women a pretty big turn off.
It would be nice if men learned that attraction doesn't have to mean objectification, and that real women are way better than a cobbled together Frankenstein "perfect" monster woman.
I mean, 99% of these men would have zero chance with a woman half as attractive. They seriously need to start figuring out what WOMEN find attractive instead of wasting their time with empty fantasies if they want to get a real relationship someday.
For some of us, the joy of good food is the only reliable joy we have.
I mean, the #1 reason is because it makes it taste like banana.
Definitely caramelized onions and roasted garlic. Especially on anything red meat or potato. Totally worth the time.
Besides all the reasons other commenters have said, it's because mental health is a pseudo-social phenomenon among teens.
Having a mental illness gets them attention, online and in person. I have two teens, and even though both have diagnosed mental illness due to trauma from their other parent, they still seek, discuss, and revel in self-diagnoses.
If a friend claims to have something, they rush to the internet to do "research," and begin exhibiting "symptoms." Same thing is true with other labels.
We have a dearth of parenting, due to needing two incomes to make a household run. Adult attention is scarce, so teens make up for it with wild claims and garnering attention from other teens. The internet makes it easy to model behaviors. So yes, there is an increase in mental illness, but not the kinds, nor for the reasons the internet would have us believe.
