This is a question Annoying Partners

As a recent divorcee, it would be churlish to reveal what annoys me the most about my ex, apart from that unfortunate business with the crinkle-cut beetroot which tipped us over the edge. So, what winds you up about your significant other? If you have no partner, tell us about workmates. If you have no workmates, improvise with an annoying tramp

I agree with the longest sentence in that post.
To clarify what I meant about social status: in my experience, if you're over 18 and single for any significant period of time it's generally assumed you're defective goods or a sex offender.

do you not agree that we should aspire to be more, not to have more?
and as for the general assumptions that people make (i acknowledge that it happens), well they're just assumptions. don't make it true.
i reckon people need to worry a bit less about what other people think of them and focus more on what actually matters...

The one problem with that view is that it makes stupid people get very arrogant and stroppy.

which view?
the worrying about what others think?
or that we should aspire?
or that people make untrue assumptions?
seriously, i'm not baiting here, but want to know.

The aspiration one.

aah, yes. that old hippy chestnut.
mental and emotional flexibility (resilience?) is required to handle the shit that life throws at us. if we don't bend then we break.

have you seen "Clockwise"?
right at the end, as the cops are driving cleese away:
"it's not the despair, i can handle the despair.
it's the hope!"
to be an optimist i reckon you need to be either a bit thick or pretty damned flexible.
so yeah, ye've gorra laff, in't yer!

Assumed by whom?
By the world?
Or by you?
