My partner got overwhelmed in the store. We went at about 7pm, it wasn't that busy, no screaming babies, but for some reason he came out of there in a bad mood. When I asked him why he's become such a grump he said it's because he hates people then added that he's not effing grumpy.

I actually know how he felt though, although whenever I feel overwhelmed in a busy store I always feel much happier once I'm out of there. But when you're feeling like crap the last thing you need is for someone to be calling you "grumpy". So in the car on the way home I apologised for calling him grumpy and I asked him if he was getting sick of that word (as I often use it to describe him when he's in a ratty mood), and he said yes. I told him that I understood that, and that I'll remember not to call him out on his mood next time. But the only reason why I react when he's in a bad mood is to let him know that I've noticed he's in this mood, and that I don't like being sworn at when I'm the calm one.

It's because we're both humans with emotions, so if course we're going to clash. All humans clash really.

I wonder if I went to a party and just be my normal hyperactive self, I'd get away with it because people would just think I'm drunk? Being weird is acceptable when you're drunk and people suddenly accept you.

Except I won't be drunk.

Me and some of my neighbours have had our doors and windows covered in white paint. I have reported this to the police.

Wearing a travel pillow on a permanent basis might be the way forward for me

I do wish people didn't bring babies into restaurants, I mean babies that are at that shouting stage, like around age 9-24 months. Today we went into a nice, quiet, spacious, mature-type restaurant and then some young couple with a 1-year-old came in and sat on the table next to us, and all the kid kept doing was letting out ear-piercing shrieks that drowned out everything else and I couldn't hear what the others on my table were saying, and my right ear kept hurting from the noise of the kid.
It was a relief when they went. If I'm honest I'm not really keen on babies. They're too unpredictable and I think nature has made a mistake in making them so LOUD just because they want attention. They're so bloody selfish (without realising they're selfish of course), that I feel animals have more intelligence than human babies.

No, really.

Should I cultivate Faster Mental Processing or Bigger Picture Point of View?


Don't care how or why.
Just need anyone else's input other than AIs'. :lol:

That's a good question

What's the pros and cons of each

Hmmm... Choosing one or the other would...

Faster Mental Processing would mean reliable recall and better processing speed.
Cons is that my prioritization still sucked, still mentally myopic, and probably kept doing the wrong stuff over and over.

Bigger Picture Point of View would mean being more strategic and do the right things more in context.
Cons would be I'd still get overwhelmed, still not fast enough, still lose details, still not reliable to recall or perceive stuff.


That's the pros and cons I've gathered.
Really, I couldn't do both at the same time.

I've put up my hand-made Halloween window decorations. I know it's not October yet, but it's close enough.

Most of my decorations are cute and comical looking, but yesterday I made a cut-out of a scary gravestone with the words HERE LIES MY FAITH IN HUMANITY written on it. Basically using dark humor to show my feelings about the world.

Yeah I think I'd like to practice the big picture point of view option

It must be weird being an elderly person today, because they grew up in a very different world to what it is today. Practically everything then was different to what it is now, in regards to technology and fashion. They're the only generation alive today that actually saw things like cars and TVs evolve so drastically.

Thanks for your input.

I'll be bugging everyone I can before making a decision.
