"Know thyself" That requires self-applied cognitive behavioral therapy. I really don't see any indication that you are up to that---or more importantly, see the necessity of it in your life. So reluctantly, I suggest that at your current level of self knowledge, the prognosis is poor.
Fortunately, it is likely that you can change that if you want to. But. alas, the prognosis for that is not optimistic either.
Tiresome, tiresome Tom. What you know about therapy could fit into a thimble with lots of room left over. But you more than make up for it with ignorance and an overinflated sense of ego.
Ah, LyricalOne, you bring a smile to my face with your predictability.
Most people who can't effectively parry what I say or think eventually start down the road you now seem to be traveling. When you finally reach the end of that road (It is a dead end you know.), the final comment made by those who have enough energy left simply say to me, "Well, I'm just as smart as you."
No, I don't think so. People like that will never see anything positive about their "enemy". I knew people who, even when Obama did something that Republicans liked, would spin it into something negative. For them, he was the Antichrist and could do no right. ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM probably has a similar view of Trump.
Spamella has never said anything positive about anyone, other than herself. Some people just love to point out flaws and foibles and run around saying the sky is falling. Maybe it makes her feel better about herself to tear down powerful people.
