3. I feel that way and it is part of modern life.

We stereotype and diagnose others and ourselves for an easy fix of trying to understand our existence. When we are tuned in we see how uncomfortable the " comfortable " are and how maybe life is just an angst filled void.
My favorite expression sometimes is " fuck em if they can't take a joke " we judge and are judged --its a waste of time and we don't have much time .
We act , react and over react . I feel if I don't create waves ,act like a clown ,fool or Mr. sensitive nobody would pay attention to me -----joke is everybody is doing the same thing ,in those tiny moments when people let their guard down friendships are created but they can be destroyed just as fast . Do any of us have friends ? only if we can jive ourselves into believing it .
