Despair 16

[im_in_despair]

I'm sure many of you may be experiencing a lot of stress over this transformation. However, I urge you not to worry: You'll soon get used to it!

Indeed, human beings can get used to even the most harrowing situations! However, this isn't as much of a blessing as it may appear on the surface! Many people have gotten away with the most sinister habits

Is there anything about a man who sees only despair in the world because that's all he's used to seeing?

[im_in_despair]

Absolutely!

[allthingstodust]

I would still regard the ability to adapt as an excellent one, however.

[im_in_despair]

Well, it's at least preferable to the alternative, I suppose.

He has a point.

[im_in_despair]

Kyon, is it? I trust you've been getting used to your situation.

I think I can get what you mean, professor. After a while, I just kind of got used to Haruhi ordering me around with her brigade. In the end, there's not point in resisting something that you can't change.

Uuugh. I'm starting to sound like him.

[im_in_despair]

And with enough adaptability, you might start to think of changeable things as things you can't change!

[sore_feet_man]

Professor. I think you've actually successfully found something good in human nature.

"Patience". Am I mistaken?

[im_in_despair]

You are mistaken! All of the good points of humanity have already been found.

All that remains is revealing their sinister dark sides!

[sore_feet_man]

People always say "Patience is a virtue," don't they?

[im_in_despair]

I think you're underestimating the hidden danger inherent in known virtues!

[leadsneverdie]

My, someone has it in for the world.

[im_in_despair]

Talking about it isn't going to make it end any faster.

[leadsneverdie]

And yet that's exactly what you're doing.
