Here’s another list of ideas that are specially designed to make you squirm in discomfort. So naturally, trigger warning (Are people still doing that?).
If you haven’t read the first list of uncomfortable ideas, go read it now. Seriously. Then come back for even more existential torture!
- Munching on glass. Just think how it would get between your teeth and dig into your gums…
- If you have been exchanging hurts with someone, the fastest way to end the conflict is for one party to stop retaliating. You can’t control what the other person does, so if you want the conflict to end, it’s up to you to stop retaliating.
- If you check your phone and find no messages, it’s not because you don’t matter to people. You do. They’re all just too busy pretending that they don’t matter to anyone either. As such, your self-pity is invalid, and you should call someone up yourself.
- Farting blood.
- If you’re farting blood, you probably have much more pressing concerns than The Tufted Carrot Man.
- “Thriven” is just as much a word as “driven” is.
- If you keep having the same types of problems with people over and over again, it’s not because people in general are despicable. It’s because you are.
- Your beloved cat would have no problem eating your corpse if you died.
- Everything you do influences someone else, even if you think it doesn’t. If you do a thing, it will affect you, and that means a shift in your demeanor. That in turn will have an impact on those around you, even if it’s slight. It could mean the difference between waiting patiently in line and blowing up at the cashier.
- If you’ve ever lost your temper in public, those present likely lost respect for you. No matter how right you were, you made a scene, and it looked pretty childish.
- Your stomach is the size of your fist, and the food you put into it is quite a bit larger than that. Imagine the swelling that takes place. Imagine how that presses up against everything around it, and think what a miracle it is that nothing gets ripped open.
- Your beloved goldfish doesn’t remember you.
- If you believe in law of any kind, then any good you do is only what is expected of you, and you therefore merit nothing special for doing it. As such, you don’t deserve to be rewarded any more than anyone else.
- As much as you’d like to think otherwise, you’d probably be one of the zombies in the zombie apocalypse.
- Getting a split nose.
- If your nose has been split, you probably have more pressing concerns than The Tufted Carrot Man.
- You’re more likely to end up wrong if your objective is to prove someone else wrong rather than try to figure out the truth through collaboration. Your motive undermines your ability to contribute to pure knowledge since you’re not focused on reality, but rather on proving a point, however true or false that point may actually be.
- Cheesy 90’s kids’ shows, especially the ones with cheap animation, cringe-worthy dialogue, and songs that try to teach morals, but really just make your ears bleed.
- If you keep having the same problems over and over again, it’s not that the universe hates you. The universe doesn’t care. You’ve just been doing something wrong the whole time.
- If you’re having the same problems over and over again, you probably have more pressing concerns than The Tufted Carrot Man. Your solutions don’t start with him. They start with your own initiative, creativity, and ability to adapt.
