I guess it could be boring to someone who has embarked on some spiritual odyssey wherein they've issued themselves carte blanche to mythologize their own existence. But I think everyone would be much better off if they realized that we ARE our bodies. This is it. You won't get a do-over in the dirt.
So curate the most fertile time you can manage, and leave the spirituality to the people who are worried about their personal extinction. |

| The fact is, if you're really willing to make a change you need to do surgery. And hormones. |

You obviously have been reading too much Dostoyevsky and Nietzche, so stop trying to force your opinion of a purposeless, pointless bleak existence upon others. I've heard this way too many times. I suppose the abyss has been looking back at you? I've been there.
We get it. Life is and we are . It's boring. And not necessarily true. |

| Yes and no. You are what you are, you just get better at it with age. |

Well, you know your assessment is airtight when it falls in line with IGK's. |
