and it's a lot like driving. i mean, everyone thinks they're a great driver, but it's not actually the case that most people are above average.
there are some genuinely good drivers out there. i'm fortunate that the ACC actually helps fund some of them to teach me to drive (or ride) on the ACC driving courses. I enjoy learning from people who know what they are talking about.
But most people are just f*ck*ng full of it.
But almost everyone has got an opinion.
That's the great thing about how everyone has their very own body. It is like, you can do what you want to do with your body in the gym... And then you might see someone and go 'wow, what did they do to build / make the body they've got' and you might actually ask their opinion or their advice. But typically... The fatter and weaker and unfitter the people are the more advice they are full of.
And the rubbish drivers are all about accelearating yourself quickly out of (?) danger or whatever nonsense...
The gym is even more personal for people than driving because cars are extensions of your body by... Extension. Whereas your actual body...
Yeah.
It is about freedom. It is about the lack of freedom in these parts. It is about hierarchy. It is about people asserting their position on the hierarchy (their superiority). It is about my being seen not to be the sort of person who goes about inducing shame and guilt in others. It is about my being targeted as an easy victim, yeah. It is about people thinking that I'll whine on and on and on (beg and plead). It is about people not knowing that I'm the kinda person who says it once: Says it twice: Says it three times (absolute max). And then I'm done speaking. I mean I'm done. Really. For reals. I don't need to train at Moana pool. There's teh f*ck*ng ocean to swim in. There's my very own gym at home.
It's just f*ck*ng sad for me to realise (again and again and again) why people need their private swimming pools and private gyms and private everything. Why there needs to be this other realm.
Becaue otherwise.. People can't function in this country. The rulers rule with tehir iron fist and their subjects are not allowed to be.
