I think this needs to be changed to “I need to help bring about horrible things to terrible people.”

Be the change you wanna see in the world, kinda thing.

What are some highlights?

Avocados are definitely more on the savory side of the food spectrum. Culinarily, they’re almost always referred to as a vegetable because of this, despite being a fruit in botanical terms.

As others have said, salt is pretty much always involved in their preparation. Also, for me and most of the people I know, it’s more of an addition to a meal than an actual meal or snack in itself.

I often dice them and put them in rice bowls with cilantro, lime or lemon juice, and whatever other protein I’m using (usually chicken or a fresh fish). They’re also added to citrus heavy or savory Asian fusion dishes a lot, nowadays. Basically, avocado goes well with anything rich and savory or light and citrusy.

Aside from that, they are a popular condiment on sandwiches and wraps and add a hint of their flavor and a really nice texture.

People will also do them somewhat like oysters, though, just halved and with hot sauce and lime or lemon juice.

Regardless, I don’t think anyone I know eats them without preparation/straight.

I read magnificent as malignant. Not sure which is better to your average kleptomaniac writing about “the economy”.

Huh. That’s crazy. It’s almost as if it’s a news piece. Posted in a news community, no less. How interesting.

That’s definitely a start.

It is the sacred toe floof… One must pay obeisance and honor the wooly beans.

I often felt this way in school, through grad school, as well. For me, it would be a bad hair day or just waking up not feeling great about myself and I’d basically just color the whole day in the shitty mood I woke up in and I basically gave up on the day

Definitely a your mileage may vary kind of thing, but for me it was pretty much impossible to reframe my day when I got into that mindset.

I also think being in an environment where I, consciously or unconsciously, felt a need/want to look good to other people (highschool and law school were very like this for me) would put me in that mindset.

I eventually addressed these feelings through a lot of self work and help from a good therapist, but I think age and confidence also played a role/were intertwined in this for me.

Eventually, I didn’t care so much about how I appeared to most others, told my pretentious law job to kick rocks, and became a teacher. I’ve developed even tougher skin through that profession because kids are both freaking hilarious and remarkably brutal. Any form of pretense or GAF kind of energy will be detrimental to honest interactions and teaching in general, so when the kids learn that I’m just here to help them learn and don’t care about clout/drama, it really helps tear down some walls.

Idk, kinda went on a bit there, but basically a lot of what I experienced was due to me caring about how I was perceived and if it wasn’t perfect in my eyes, I gave up. Once I started focusing on honest interactions with others, and moved into a career/life trajectory that supported that focus, I kind of moved away from being so hard on myself.

Some or none of this may apply to you, but I hope this helps a bit and if you’re asking these kinds of “why” questions, you’re already on a good track.

Damn, bro…
