It feels like clubs are getting way too impatient with leadership roles lately. They seem to hand out the armband to whoever is the most recent "big signing" instead of letting someone actually earn it through time and loyalty. Anyone else feel like the concept of a long-term captain is dying?
Just saw that video of the guy in the Spider-Man suit helping a man in a wheelchair cross a busy street. Honestly, it's such a wholesome moment to see someone being a hero in real life like that. Do you think more people would be more helpful if they were wearing costumes?

Joseph Bailey41 - yeah, more or less.
bluejackal2 - Sometimes, and honestly, if I’m lucky, they aren't a total bore and I actually feel like talking to them. Maybe I finally found the fix. Tonight, whiskey is my shortcut to heaven.
It keeps kicking me off the Reddit site and just redirects me straight to some random ad like uksoccershop... even when I don't click on anything, it just sends me there. What gives? I'm on my PC using Chrome, not my phone.

Hell yeah. For example, if I’ve known someone for years, talking to them gets exhausting because I already know their take on everything. We're just spinning our wheels. If I met someone brand new, they'd probably be interesting for a few days, and then that's it. I'd get the info I need, learn their views, and move on. Honestly, I need people for one-time use—they need to rotate out faster than the coaching staff at the LA Galaxy.

I've already heard enough from them.
I’ve got this weird issue—I honestly couldn't care less about anyone else's opinion. Look, plenty of people will tell me that's actually a superpower (and in certain situations, it totally is), but things get messy when I'm actually interacting with people. Like, if I'm grabbing coffee with someone and they start rambling about some topic, I literally don't give a damn what they think. I just nod along and listen superficially so they don't get offended. I don't even have the energy to defend my own stance because, frankly, why bother? It hurts my brain to wonder if the person I'm talking to is going to change their mind or not—it feels like a complete waste of time. I’ve basically become like a piece of furniture at coffee shops, not because I'm quiet or don't have anything to say, but because I just can't be bothered to explain myself or get sucked into the debate. Lately, I've been avoiding hanging out altogether because of this. I realize how much of a paradox it is to claim I don't care about opinions while opening up a thread on a forum to see what everyone thinks... but hey, this is a forum. It's different.
