# look just take the damn remedy already janet researchers who don't apply even minimal common non invasive solutions to minor problems who often state we don't want to be any trouble yet are often potent sources of concern causing much general and acute annoyance like failing to chew antacids for mild stomach troubles or not switching the hallway lights on before a small but inherently dangerous flight of stairs who when asked why say the light's so dim it might as well not be on all this occurs out of an almost wilfully misperceived sense of individualistic inaction like they're apparently too elf contained to need any help even from a darn light switch yet when they eventually stumble or fail then what not that they shouldn't be helped but they're still stubborn as heck in ir mild psychotic desire not to inconvenience others they often appear zealots yet in realty such passive aggressive acts of bottle nosed faux independent hair shirted martyrdom get real tiresome real quick thing is another more general name for this specific stubborn idiot syndrome is simple egotistical elf neglect if only others didn't get inconvenienced and frustrated while one busily indulges in a well practiced process of hating oneself which is still thinking selfishly about oneself only negatively impatient arrogant and mule obstinate oh how one raves and bitches and complains not applying the most basic of existential salves almost physically unable to listen to the clear advice of others whose helpful suggestions are never enough whose advice is often criticized as being half measures or useless band aids to which one replies gee we didn't know you'd considered it all so carefully such useless moaning however only betrays truer bone headedness while some problems faced are institutionally intractable such whiners certainly don't face them alone yet note how often they don't appear to care about the suffering of others in a world overflowing with intensely annoying and troubling external circumstances the only ones which seem to matter are those which affect them directly almost like there's something unique about them which needs kid gloves at all times endless necessary considerations needed about ir particular circumstances which somehow mean any help offered is to be rejected as just not good enough you just don't listen they say as if they weren't an open page or apparently too delicate a flower to care for all solutions therefore are useless and today's problem is apparently terminal just like the last and the one before that to which one reply is well if it's terminal and impossible to solve then shut up and let intractable fate take it's course meatball rather than bellyaching criticizing disparaging grumbling kvetching nagging niggling quibbling and fault finding being around someone regularly carping churlish crabby cranky crotchety fractious fretful grouchy huffy obstinate petulant waspish accusatory impatient and disapproving is quietly agonizing mentally unable to see beyond the ends of ir own noses a form of mutated solipsism unable to take in any picture or mental model of the world bigger than one's immediate minor demand stating nobody or nothing can help yet ir synthetic isolation is only ever the inherent isolation of the elf elf as stupid anti philosophical tautology which can only automatically repeat it's own false first assumptions they alone isolate themselves from the world yet unsurprisingly are unable to see the extent to which the separation of elf is the cause of unnecessary grief and hassle if they had less elf to be constantly annoyed then any problems surrounding them would change problems wouldn't magically disappear but the extent to which they often flat out refuse to change by single degrees is the true magic at play magic in the sense of elf generating illusion and delusion in short just take the flaming aspirin janet or watch in closeup as it's shoved down a stubborn karen donkey neck sideways with a dirty toilet plunger // republic of bob
