Emotions are intrinsically good and bad

[Silver]

If positive emotions really were good and negative emotions really were bad... then that means it would be correct to stay in a constant state of excitement at all times.... including if someone is attacking your wife with an axe. And don't you dare be angry because that's negative and intrsically bad

Fuck that shit. Negative emotions are often necessary to avoid suffering just as much as positive emotions are. And we don't need 'positive emotions' we just need to have fun and avoid suffering.

She's ignoring you because you're too smart for her. She has no idea how to respond to such brilliance.
