Smug dropout is smug.
- crtified 3y agoI was aiming, albeit rather belatedly, for kinship, rather than smugness. But being socially ineffective = sometimes missing the mark, when it comes to conveying feelings, despite best efforts or intentions. I'll take your read under advisement. :)
- BLKNSLVR 3y agoI got your meaning from first reading. There's no smugness because your position isn't self-righteously or even voluntarily chosen. You've been thrust into a position on the side of the river where the flow is slower and therefore less shit drifts in, purely by good/bad luck. I like my IT shit, but my major life joys come from my kids and sports and writing / thinking. If FAANG went poof tomorrow (and maybe be if I was a praying person, I'd pray for this daily) my life joys would be almost entirely unaffected. It's a good perspective.
