If I was trying to push specific recommendations onto OP, I wouldn't have said 'begging you to read a book, any book' in my original comment tankie.

You're right: you were being a condescending asshole. And then OP replied in good faith, and you proceeded to look like a dumb condescending asshole with nothing to say. Great job.

RIP hexbear.

I am begging you too to read a book, any book. In good faith I am recommending to you Shut Up, Stop Whining, and Get a Life by Larry Winget. Some people, not me, have called him the 'Pitbull of Personal Development' so you may get something out of the 272 pages. ISBN 9781118024515
