Jon Stewart always makes sense..he has point about it always being funny till it is your guy..

It has broad applicability to any time your basic assumptions are challenged. How you deal with that without losing any sort of personal compass - that is the challenge. And he is right about narcissism...which probably applies to any time we are very vocal on the net.

I saw this a few days ago about how social media induces
BPD like behaviors:

After I saw these I considered toning down hyperbolic language in my own posts while keeping the gist. But then I got lazy.
So I just removed them from my journal.....anyway one never gets around to going back and looking at any of that.
