Does anybody, other than Torie, believe that if not for the Update that Bushie would be a productive member of society?  It's crystal clear to anybody who has been paying attention that's just not his bag and most likely never will be. At least with the Update, he has a hobby he enjoys.

It's as clear as CHRIST rose from the DEAD that this thread was good for Bushie. It's just a matter of time before his life is in tatters once again and he comes running back to us for support.

Yes (normal)

Remember last time he went on hiatus? He gained like 20 pounds. The poor man is lost without us.

From what I remember, he just would've been scammed out of money in that one.  What did they want him to do that was fraudulent?

No. Bushie needs to get actual help from a Therapist who will help him, not spew memes about his instructor or make fifty statements about one thing that happened months ago.

Obviously there are better ways for Bushie to manage his life, but he rarely takes anyone's advice, so it's better to have an update and take some of our advice than him do nothing at all. Because we all know he's not going to seek professional help. Especially without us encouraging him to do so.

Well, I think everyone would agree that he needs to seek some kind of professional help. I've spent a lot of my time in the Update arguing that he do just that.

I don't know. The Atlas is both the devil and angel on his shoulders. The attention itself probably feeds some sort of egotistical pleasure center in his brain while the actual contents of it are mostly negative. One important takeaway is a lesson of personal autonomy - Bushie will always simply do whatever he wants or thinks is best even if people unanimously disagree. It's taught him how to lie to and manipulate an entire group of people which is probably a useful skill in the real world.

Where would he be without the Update? Probably the same place. The real takeaway for me is how "update" is a strange word. Up and date. Doesn't really say anything besides how the story unfolds regularly throughout the passage of time like everything else. Why the story is unique or worth paying attention to or caring about is not important to the title. The important fact is that it's changed slightly moment to moment and so we can check on it regularly to get a fix of information. Thanks for the update - few genuinely care about your well-being but we appreciate the new information that makes us feel happy for a moment and smug in how we decimate its content (your entire being).

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Cheesy Clearly I need to put down the beer and go to bed! Thankfully I got that advice in a roundabout way from the Atlas.

Folks seriously believe that the Update is benefitting Jeff, eh?  Really?  Just how did so many of you end up on the other side of the looking glass?

I think we can all agree Bushie needs professional help.  However, we all know he won't do it.  None of us are Professionals or can provide him with the help he really needs, however its still better than the alternative of absolutely nothing.

The fact Bushie rarely listens doesn't help matters much, however every now and then he at least attempts to listen.  If update didn't exist, his life would be an even bigger clusterf*** than it already is.

Despite our teasing, we only wish the best for Jeffrey.  Jusy last week I reminded him that the USPS takes multiple applications as well as congratulated him on his interview.
