Yeah. We get it. You're insufferable and lack any degree of properly formed
human empathy. You're incredibly emotionally unaware and insist on
inflicting yourself upon situations where your presence is unwelcome.
NOTHING bad that happens to you is your fault, and everyone is just out to
get you because they're so unenlightened. You're so advanced that you don't
even understand the concept of gender. Ooh. Ahh. Now please leave us be.
