The Problem with Getting Past a Certain Point.

03-19-2016

It’s hard to quantify my hatred towards people who seem to be all self-righteous about a certain thing just because they’re past it.

I hate it. I hate when people, just because they did something for themselves, become a condescending bitch about it.

But why is it so?

Is this hatred stems from my inherent distaste of this partiular attitude?

But why is it so?

Distaste. Probably. I never tried to act all superior about everything that I did good at. I never displayed proudly what I can do. I never dared to boast about it, simply because I believe that what I achieved is something that only I can really appreciate.

Being better at something you did bad at before is something that you shouldn’t boast about.

Perhaps, the very act of being boastful itself, regardless of context.

I hate boastful people. Especially, when they’re boastful about something that they’ve done bad at before.

I hate it when people, who are just as meek as you before become all mighty and self-righteous about everything just because they’ve done good on something that they’ve done bad at before. I hate it when people try to act high than you just because of some petty, insignificant achievement. What a bother.
