This is the first entry in this blog, a site devoted solely to my misanthropic musings on the human condition. (There, now doesn't that sound pretentious enough?) I am afraid I find rather little about our species to admire and am overwhelmed by our narcissism (which is self-evident, given that I am demonstrating that trait here). Nevertheless, we are existential creatures in a deterministic universe and I recognize our frailty. Hence, my observations are tempered by the realization that we are all subject to the same emotional buffeting; we are, for better or worse, stuck with one another. Therefore, let us make the best of it.
