Everybody gather �round! A 26 year old man-child is about to complain!

Actually, I�m gonna come down a little less hard �cause I�ve calmed down a little, and especially �cause I know how easily ivory towers burn.

But I would like to say this:

It is possible that an astonishing cavalcade of coincidences can collide to create a magical landscape where, although something you�re involved with turned out shitty, it�s not your fault.

However, that�s not the norm. That can�t happen every time something shitty happens to you. Sometimes, you have to face the possibility that it could be, in some small, fractional way, your fault.

It�s shitty to hear, I know. But people have to hear it (and understand it) or they can�t move on.
