^^^Guess its all relative.
To me growing up, kids who had dance lessons, team Jerseys and food on the table WERE the rich people. 😛

I suppose perspective does skew things a bit. I forgot to check my privilege.

Riv looks killer in a pink tutu.

No big deal, it just struck me as funny.

Hell, i'm a gazillion times better off now than i was growing up, and i have zero guilt about it.

Guilt is a way of life for us white folks. On account of us being magnificent bastards to everyone else for so long.

^^^See, thats guilt talking.
White people havent done anything throughout history other peoples havent done as well.

Starting wars
Stealing land
Oppressing other peoples
Oppressing own peoples
Oppressing women
Owning/selling/buying slaves
Hunting animals to extinction
Religious persecution

White people have never had a monopoly on any of these things.
Anyone who says otherwise is an idiot.

When you're on top of the mountain you paint a pretty big target on yourself.

True.

I know from experience. 😉

I can see you on some dusty hilltop with several other dirty, tired, unshaven and very determined men. Dug deep into the ground, waiting and waiting for that one moment where the enemy pops his crusty tent-draped carcass out of whatever bombed out building he and his "family" are hiding out in. And that moment finally comes and you paint his chest with your laser and your comms guy radios the fast movers way up in the sky and the burning vengeance of God crashes down upon those vermin as the Earth itself seems to expel their foul presence.

Yeah, that wasnt my thing, but i'm all for the scenario!

That would be perfect for my cousin who is convinced he barely missed hitting a Squatch driving out past Multnomah Falls a couple years ago, kind of turned him into one of those weird Bigfoot hunters like the french guy in Harry and the Hendersons.
