Barron,

I'm gonna take the opportunity to break in on this universal paean to confidence.

I maintain that there is very little real difference between confidence and arrogance. One is justified, or perceived as such, and the other is not. That is literally the only difference of which I am aware. The attitude, exhibited behaviors, etc. are the same. One is feeling like the [censored] and being it, too. The other is just the feeling.

On that note, I ask - what the [censored] ever happened to humility? Isn't that still a really, really good thing to possess? Like, the foundation of everything about being a good person rests in humility, imo. Some of you are going to call me a total hypocrite for that statement, and maybe I am, but I don't like it. I want as much humility as I can get. I want to be freed from the prison of my own ego. I think that would be very leet, and I think that it would be leet for everyone else, too. Like, to me, the beau ideal is the dude who is the [censored] but doesn't particularly see himself as such. And yet you guys all preach the exact opposite. This is the part that I end up taking personally, that drives me crazy. Like, even if it's a requirement to be a tru playa or whatever, what a stupid game!
