Or we've just grown up and accept certain things we can't control and try our best to manage the things we can. Thats life, its not perfect, but there's plenty to be happy about. A modicum of maturity goes a long way.

And...no, reality doesn't 'make everyone so sad'. Reminds me of Mozart Link's bizarre fatalist fetish.

It's the price of living in a human society, at this present stage of development and with the visible complexity.
As you grow old, you either accept it and go on with your life, or sink into that angst which bytes you in the ass. Most people accept it and live... some even become a part of the bureaucracy, some make it increase...

If you prefer not to deal with that, then go live in an island by yourself.

Growing up. What a misleading word. What growing up to me means is becoming intelligent and understanding the world around me. What growing up to you means becoming a cog in a big machine. That's all that human beings are. Little cogs trying to work this mechanical, lifeless system of living we have. If people don't fit in, we hammer them in. If people die, they're replaced. If someone refuses to be a cog, we scorn them. We treat them like they're shit for not supporting the lie we call humanity. Humanity is an oxymoron as far as I'm concerned. There is nothing humane about the way we humans are forced to live our lives.

'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Well, if you are so utterly determined to be miserable, at least you're succeeding in that. Congratulations. Meanwhile, the rest of us will continue to enjoy life with our friends and loved ones.

The reason you have food on your table and a roof over your head every day is because of the cogs.

Fuck you. Just fuck you and everything about this statement. You're strawmaning my entire existence to "affluent", "well off". Fuck poor people. This is why I hate poor people. They're so ignorant. If you think money brings you happiness you are fucking mistaken. I despise my life. I have been told I am more negative than suicidal people. Yet I get mocked and ridiculed for having a life they they perceive to be superior to theirs. You people know fucking nothing about my life.

That's the tragic part of the situation.
