DS mentioned this in passing a while back. Did my birth come with some kind of obligation to the rest of you?

Most people who feel they have a "duty" to "improve the world" only succeed in ****ing it up even worse.

Very cold charity you are offering. |

No, you're only supposed to help lazy people who don't take care of themselves, especially the big fat ones who buy twinkies with food stamps. I don't just mean help them buy more twinkies. You also gotta pay for their bypass operation when the twinkies clog their arteries.
