Just a guess, don't take this personal, "You are a lazy, selfish, underachiever." If you have felt like you have judged yourself in this way, or even if not, if it bothers you, why would it? Likely because something in there hit home.
I'm very aware of my strengths and weaknesses as a human being. I know my "fall back" is arrogance and it shines through at times when I feel as though someone is being condescending towards me. It's one of my triggers and always has been. So if you said to me, "You are a cheap, selfish, homosexual" that's no different to you calling me a blue frog. None of it sticks. Now, if you said to me that I was showing up as arrogant, condescending, or self-righteous that may hit home. That may speak to me because I know that when triggered I sometimes show up that way.
I'm late to the party reading this and I'll, be real honest - most of this thread is TL; DR. Plus, I think all the fanboy negative vibes and jealousy have grown to become exhaustive.
What did come to mind, after seeing the contents of your refrigerator and reading extensively about your vegan/yogic lifestyle - was the thought that you should strongly give some thought to creating a DNegs branded cookbook. As a semi-pro player, a vegan and a fitness junkie - I can't tell you how much I'd appreciate something like that from someone like you. Even more valuable if written with the idea of Las Vegas living and maintaining a healthy lifestyle on the road in mind. ♣️♥️♠️♦️
Thanks again for letting us into your life a bit, DNegs.
