Don't understand this. The guy's telling the Bingo Card Creator guy he should be making more money. Which is absolutely true because he has the skillset to make millions a year. How is this bad in any way - it's not. It's not psychoanalysis. It's just a guy saying - Dude, You should be making a lot more money with your skillset. Option 1:Let your ego get in the way and stay at under $60K a year. Option 2: Learn from the advice, even if it isn't sugarcoated, and get to $1 million+ a year. Why do we have to sugar coat everything. Are we women now? Are our feelings getting hurt?

Some of us are women. But I don't see why that requires we be polite.

  Everyone should be polite, but I don't see why we become women when we do.

Where you go off the track is using "should" rather than "could". Where the original went off track was in calling it a "tragedy".

  In fact, he said "sick to my stomach", and "Seriously, I want to vomit". Extremely strong judgements going on there.

    I read that as pure jealously. As am I jealous of this kid's literal million dollar skillset. The guy who wrote that knows he could never be as good or make as much as Patio. That's why it's strongly worded. Alas, tone and tongue-in-cheek are not grasped well when there is shock and awe. Really I can't see why anyone would take it any other way, what with the intense praise he was giving him.

      Judging by the rest of Sebastian's site, I doubt it was jealousy; unless the site is a long and deep parody, the writer appears to consider himself superior to almost everyone but historical heroes.

    How are these extremely strong judgements? getting pissed off that some retards make more than some great people you know has a long tradition in civilization. My favorite is the Saul Bellow line, "Only I'm good and tired of watching high-quality people fuck up in practical life, to the gratification of the vulgar." This seems to be the spirit in which this article is written. Clearly the "fuck-up" in this case only refers to the financial aspect of things.
