Yep. The “masses” irritate me. I like individuals better, too.

I've already thought about this quite a bit.
I notice the a*holes when they're behaving like a*holes. That tends to colour my view of the whole of humanity.
The majority of people are non-a*holes and a large proportion of them are actually very nice... but I tend not to notice them because niceness doesn't get into my face as readily as a*holiness does.
Sometimes I meet people I think are a bit rum, but they have inner charms when you get to know them.

I’ve been spat at, beaten up, bullied, stood up, abused verbally, emotionally, psychologically, mentally, and physically, sh!t upon, p!ssed on, p!ssed off, and marginalized. That’s just my immediate family that did that. My so-called friends were just as bad.

I’m better off as a recluse and a hermit.

I’d probably feel the same way if my family was like that.

I’m as much of a recluse as I can be anyway.

The more I learn about people, the more I despise them.

A stupid, stubborn part of me wishes that there were exceptions to the rule, but you learn that exceptions to the rule don't make new rules and they are usually only temporary.

"TW1ZTY, why are you so evil?"

"Hmm... I think it's becauae I'm full of hate. I'm not sure if that helps?"

"You can be the most horrible human being in the world. If you're attractive enough, you'll still be loved.

Inversely, you can be the kindest person in the world. If you're not attractive, one slip-up and you become a monster."

That's only true for superficial morons who drool over Hollywood celebs.

It's the people closest to you like family and friends who get to know you and love you and see you for what you really are.

No, it's true for everyone. Even my own family abandoned me at my time of need multiple times. I rarely talk to them.

Also cycling through "friends" every year or two at best (sometimes on a weekly basis) makes it so I don't really have "friends" at all. They're more people that I talk to until they move on.

I've had harsh words for your family before, but most families are not like yours. This is unfortunate as making friends that support you at the level that most families do takes a lot of time and investment. Most people will care dearly if they've invested their time and emotions into you, and most family's do this by default.

I'm sorry, but I can't because I am misanthropic just like you ._. humanity is the worst existence on this planet.

Heyyyyyyy, someone else who is just like me! :D :D
No, I'm not going to attempt to change your mind, because at the moment I'm hoping and praying for an asteroid with Earth's name on it to wipe out this failed species we call Home Sapiens. Humanity's time is up, or at least it should be.

Er... no. How I wish that were the case, but the more I learn about humanity, the more my faith in it is corroded. The simple fact that the vast majority of them cannot even appreciate the reality that there will be some among them (i.e. us) who cannot see the world from their perspective, and therefore think it appropriate to harass and torment us because of it, is enough on its own. :evil:
