I have two cars, but I actually hate cars.

I chose to have a house in the mountains, but I hate snow.

I work out hard and have abs that I show off, but people who show off their abs annoy me.

I’m a writer and make income doing it in addition to my retirement pension, but writers annoy me and I never tell my friends that I’m a writer.

I also paint and have had my stuff in some galleries, but artists annoy me and I never tell any of my friends that I paint.

I’ve chosen all those things. Not by necessity, but just choice. Can you be a contrarian to your own views or does that definition have to involve opposing someone else’s views just to troll?

      Oh I actually like myself. And I like my life. I realize I’m lucky to have what I have and do what I do. But I change my mind a lot, and it’s kind of annoying.

      I have dated people who don’t like themselves. Trust me, that’s a whole other thing.

      I’m a selfish prick, so I probably like myself too much!

      But I appreciate you giving me your opinion. Thanks!
