I don't have the energy to be individualistic, original, unconventional, and confrontational about every issue. When it comes to a lot of petty1 questions in life, it's just easier to be polite, normal, conformist, and conventional. I have to pick my battles carefully.

This enables me to lull the people around me into relaxing while I quietly implement my plans for world domination.

  1. When it comes to non-petty questions, I have fully earned the sobriquet "The Mouth That Knows No Fear."
