      you kicked the .ml hornet nest, didn’t you?

      here’s some ointment, now take your medicine and join the rest of the lemmies

      • Hornets? More like gnats or midges. Worst case, they tickle your skin a little or maybe you breath one in and cough it out onto the floor. They certainly do not sting. You can only even see them in the right light.

          Some people take the validation of others quite seriously. Internet points, for them, are not at all fake - it’s a measure of their worth.

          I’m not a psychiatrist, so I can’t say whether this is healthy, but I’d guess not of it’s causing them angst about something that has no direct effect on the base 3 levels of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.
