  on: Berkeley: be­ing other people

  grocery line - wonder if this guy enjoys his job, that wine bottle may fall, you’re often rushing to pack shopping here, it’s like they’ve outsourced packing to customers.

  youtube genres - anime music videos, long film soundtracks

  what about your experience - the number of associations. I’ve had multiple friends remark how slightly “erratic” my conversation style can be at times. eg: questions asked of the form: “how does this relate to the previous thing”

  I don’t think I’ll give you the exact example. However it was similar to the tea sentence as in it felt “obviously subjective”. Thing was, there was also a bit of social good agreeing with me. A closer example might be if I’d said “runs are wonderful”, Given society thinks “exercise = good”. Steve already felt bad for not doing enough exercise.

  Funnily, in my some of my social circles people have had the reverse problem. Friends have felt a little bad expressing that they enjoy exercise. Since in tiny_society_of_mine “exercise = terrible” because I’m fed up of all the exercise-guilt.
