  • yogthos: I have problem y. How can I solve problem y?

    StackOverflow: You don’t solve problem y. You solve problem x so that problem y never comes into being.

    yogthos: Oh wow. Shit okay, well what if I’m already having problem y though? How can -

    StackOverflow: bruh. Why are you even still thinking about problem y? Problem y isn’t real; it can’t hurt you. Problem y was just a mirage. Get it? It was a red herring. An epistemological myth you told yourself too many times and started believing. Problem y is just a sickness of the mind made manifest. Cleanse yourself of it.

    lol I know you’re not saying that to be dismissive I just like dramatizing things

    The moment you win the election and become the person who will DEFINITELY be the president in a couple of months, your bargaining power with other nations (and anyone really) goes through the roof compared to what you had as a mere candidate.

    I’ve stated that last as a fact though it’s just what seems self-evidently true to me.
