@Purk - I think it's a survival mechanism. The past 30 years it's been drilled into us in school, work, social situations, not to 'rock the boat' because we wouldn't want anyone to feel uncomfortable now would we? (Even though that's EXACTLY what they really need...) It's amazing to me that even fewer people ever stop to assess their situation in life and question where they came from, where they're going when they die and where they are right now along the spectrum of eternity. People are TERRIFIED of silence, even though the greatest things arise from it - always have to be fidgeting with something...amazing how popular "fidget spinners" became...can't ever be alone, in silence or otherwise "entertained" - Totally addicted to the shin dig. The same holds true for day to day life. They have low aspirations towards anything really constructive, so the proverbial low hanging fruit of sportsball, FacePlant and whatever other low IQ activity you can think of is par for the course to 'get them by'. Personally, I don't know why more people don't just off themselves because their lives are so pathetic...I mean, what really gets them out of bed? It's very difficult to live in this world when you have a triple digit IQ, now isn't it?
