TL;DR: Hi.
Well, it does. THE PAIN REQUIRED to push this idea through my mental vagina is unbearable.
The first reason of this is to just fertilize a couple of ideas. Post some original content, and perhaps if I am lucky enough, get some more ideas and so on so forth.
Second is for commentary. I am a pretty opinionated person. Perhaps some of you agree/disagree/condemn my views, so comment! I have taken off the captcha bullshit for people who are just like me and hate it. If by some fucking chance this actually gets readers and I get too much comment spam, I may have to change that.
Anyway, welcome aboard. If I actually go through with this and get some actual readers, I'll get my own server and domain. <3
Now for first non researched post.
TL;DR: Everyone is selfish. You mad?
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T HAVE ANY BACKGROUND IN PSYCHOLOGY NOR HAVE I RESEARCHED IT. THESE ARE PURELY JUST MUSINGS.
Assuming you have them, think about your loved ones. Would you miss them if they died? Sure you would! But what would you really miss? Them actually not existing, or them not being around to make your life happier and fulfilling? See, it's all about you. Now you may say, HEY RYZ. WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE THAT HELP OTHERS AND SHIT. Well, imaginary fictional blog reader, if helping people made you feel like utter elephant shit, would you help others? No. All those people who donate money, who help the homeless, who give a penny or two to starving children, do it because it makes them feel better about themselves. It makes them feel good. I would believe it's almost comparable to a high. That warm fuzzy feeling inside when your body fills with endorphins. (Fuck you google chrome spell check, it's a real word.) Yep. When people help others, they are helping others for themselves. Sad no? Not really. If we weren't all selfish jerks who wanted to feel good, no one would help each other.
Now, you may say, what about the undying love between couples? Hell fuck, that's the very definition of selfishness. You love someone because they make you feel good. Sex, endorphins, happiness, so on. And you also endure that person's stupid bullshit because of these things. When they are no longer worth it, (essentially they are not good enough or don't please you enough to be around), you ditch them and find a new partner. Humanity is such a loving race. And now how about people who die for each other. Doesn't that count as something?
Well, I've come to think of it as IF THIS PERSON DIES I CANNOT BE PLEASED BY THIS PERSON ANYMORE, THEREFORE THIS PERSON MUST REMAIN ALIVE AT ALL COSTS. Then you jump in front of that bullet, yell at an imaginary deity for cancer taking your wife, and so on.
NOW FOR ANOTHER SCENARIO. A woman/man and their child. Aww, how cute. Same reasons as for the hopeless lovers, except the evolutionary factor comes into play. We wouldn't have gone very far if we were a race of humans who hated our offspring and didn't give a shit. So we give a shit.
Holy fuck I'm not going to bed tonight.

THIS IS WHAT A COMMENT WOULD LOOK LIKE. IF PEOPLE CARED.
