   ### - exactly... it's totally futile to play king of the fuckin' castle   
   under such circumstances, it would literally be... insane... to do so! (a   
   form of hiding & denial perhaps? or a refusal then to grow up and face the   
   reality of life, which isn't actually that bad once ya adjust to it b'coz   
   of all those delicious strawberries which we'd otherwise totally miss-out   
   on appreciating: natural strawberries...)

   > treat the Earth as it is--something very friendly and unjudgmental.   
   > think of yourself as a guest,  would you act like an asshole on purpose

   ### - wot: don't, for example, go smashin' up capitol buildings and   
   overthrowin' governments, ya mean? (never!)   
      
   don't go, ya mean, gettin' involved in all that wallyworld bs delux,   
   gettin' all riled-up believin' in and defendin' summat to the death coz   
   that's what's on tv this week or wot all your mates are doin'??   
      
   damn right! (i.e., from this pov/spot (of clarity) sanity is the only   
   sensible option, anything less is just plain nuts/unappealing...)   
      
   that is unless ya's don't WANNA grow up and instead wanna continue   
   believing in some kinda version or another of the goddamn tooth fairy &   
   sanity-clause hah! (pun intended)   
      
   but then only an insane/deranged person would ever willingly choose summat   
   like that huh...   
      
   someone who'd especially never been 'exposed' to... Reality... except   
   perhaps in incoherent bits & pieces so it never ever really adds-up/means   
   anything more than: oh, that was a bit odd, occasionally, and then   
   promptly forgetting all about it coz that's convenient, and besides: we're   
   busy?   
      
   iow: reality bites us in the ass all the time and we deliberately ignores   
   it lol...   
      
   the very definition of crazy/cult-i-vated...   
      
   fuck that ;)
