enought military funding

as much as can keep you more powerful than the rest of the competition combined.

Pretty simple actually.
Just make sure you don't have any resource worth anything in the international market.

  1. Let stuff like petroleum, Lithium, Uranium and other such thingies be sold to the first bidder.
  2. Have your soil be nuclear contaminated, down to the bedrock, so nobody wants your land.
  • Also, import all nuclear waste from other countries
  1. Have a population that looks as ugly as possible, so noone will want to rape your people.
  • Should be easier considering point 2
  • Something like leprosy in the genitals would help too.
  1. Be absolutely full of population, such that the place is a cesspool.

Hey, I said it'd be simple, not that it would be easy or even humanly possible.

I guess it's time to convert that lizard brain into a human brain then :P

So, you mean that depression, in itself, is helping you do that?
I find it hard to believe. Care to explain the mechanism for how that happens without the thought part?

fixed.

Also, if it's not deep though, then how is it helping us do the above stuff?

If we still had the problems, we could use stuff from riot armour.

to non-essential expenses, like teambuilding events

Yeah, sometimes you just gotta tell them that teambuilding isn't going to do shit when opening any more than 4 MS Words make the computer stop.

I remember having cramped hands when trying to write fast in examinations. This would the the modern analogue.

If something at the job is causing anxiety, perhaps you need to have it.
If something other than something at the job, is causing anxiety, it'd probably be useful if it happened at a better time.

help understand self worth and assist in overcoming obstacles

So are we taking "deep thought" and naming it depression nowadays?
No wonder everyone is being diagnosed and drugged for the disease of thoughtfulness.

boneappletea

That's a really nice example to use as a terminology.

Is there a name for this practice? Of taking an example of something and making it the name of the genre? I found one - "Eponymous Representation", but it is not precise enough.

Well, I don't think we have decided on a standard meaning for an upvote in the first place, so we do as we like.
In the end, it's all about what makes me feel more satisfied.


I see a blue button, I press it, it goes grey, I'm happy.
