“Respect your elders”
Nah they’re the ones who destroyed the economy giving free rein to corporations, set the planet on fire, and let cops run loose murdering and stealing as they please, fuck them
Not saying you’re necessarily wrong but “Fuck em” seems to be the new mantra of our society on all levels. Doesn’t bode well for the future.
It actually DOES bode well for the future.
The Boomers lived by “Fuck the future, I got mine now.”
We’re trying to change it to “Fuck the past, we ain’t got shit.”
I feel like this is going to have [excellent] synergy with my boundary posts :)

“You’ve got to love him – he’s your brother, after all.”
Yeah, he’s my brother who would get angry and destroy all my things when we were young, my brother who sexually abused my youngest sibling, my brother who launched into a homophobic rant against my mom during a time when she had cancer, a brother who cheated on and verbally and physically abused his first wife, a brother who probably drove my nephew to suicide.
No, fuck him. I don’t love him, and I never will.
Yeah I’d say that’s got to be triggering to hear. How do you respond to “advice” like that normally? Assuming it’s from someone who actually knows your brother.
I never have any response that’s likely to be edifying or helpful, so I typically respond with, “Well, I don’t,” and try to disengage. That’s usually enough.
If you take a level of rogue you can disengage as a bonus action
Sounds like a good strategy. Less is more.
Some conversations are just not worth having, and I need to pick my battles

No, my torn ligaments need to rest and heal, asshole, not to endure further trauma. Get me some ice!

“If you were just more positive you’d not be complaining about being depressed all the time”.

“Have you tried just being happy for once?”
Aka fake it til you make it
Putting in my unasked for opinion that we should popularize ‘flail it til you nail it’
I don’t know, this one has pretty much carried me through the last 40 years. There’s definitely worse advice.
Yea same here but in a different way than what people usually mean. Don’t fake being rich until you are. I was and to a certain extent still am socially anxious and bad at talking to people and holding conversations. I started faking being more socially adept than I actually was by copying people I knew who were extroverts and by observing peoples interactions in the wild. Eventually I did get better with both and have no issue with either, although I do need some time to recharge later on after social interactions.

“Undercover Cops have to tell you if they’re a cop,” or other variations I remember hearing all throughout high school.
Somehow though, organized crime hasn’t figured out this one simple trick to ferreting out undercover cops in their midst, just ask them.
Also: “Don’t trust anything that bleeds for 5 days and doesn’t die.”
that second one seems way outta left field to me, what kinda contexts is that used in?
Vaginas
A one word answer that covers so many questions.
Like, “I don’t get it.”

Not always. Sometimes you just end up as a waste of oxygen in jail.
“Calm down.”
One thing that’s sure to make things worse is to tell an angry person to “calm down”…

SIR?!
YOLO
It’s like a mantra for bad decision making. But it should really be used the opposite way. Like… I better put my seat belt on because YOLO.
If something bad happens, just try to forget it. You’ll feel better!
if you ask a police officer for a piece of candy then legally they have to give you one

Related query: Is there such thing as vaginal prolapse?
Also: are you Dwight Schrute lol?
Yes, there is such a thing as a vaginal prolapse but… That thing is really hooked in there! And no I am not Dwight.

This happened too a stray kitten I found years ago. She had gotten pregnant and this happened. We had to put her down.

“Count your blessings.”
Useless fucking platitude that’s synonymous with “You aren’t the person who is absolutely the worst off, so being upset with your lot is inappropriate.”

“do what you love”
It’s so simple. Why didn’t I think of that before!
/S
Do what you love for a job and you’ll turn what you want to do into what you have to do.
The moment you depend on it to not live on the streets, then you don’t love it anymore.
