If the entire world listened to your rhetoric, people would be running around raping, stealing, and killing. That is not an exaggeration: some people want to do those things. The way I have chosen to live my life is not ignorant: the way you have resigned to live yours is disappointing.
Or have they taught to think that you're free and we're all in the jail cell?

Look, Discipline is just dandy, but I get the feeling you're resisting things you've never tried. How old are you, by the way?

Well if you're going to call me Disappointing, we're going to have to compare lives, because if I can go out every night and get wasted, wake up and function at a normal hour, achieve more and do it all again, who is the real disappointment here. I mean, what exactly do you achieve with your discipline?

As for the UsedTool, you're right, not living in fear means we'd all go rape everyone, quit being so Hobbsian and operate with common sense, hypotheticals are useful until you get absurd.
