idiot jail for ignorant beasts

actually you will not enjoy hearing this but you literally have to abandon your self deprecating humor. besides the fact that it can drive people away you literally are only hurting yourself by constantly making jokes that further cement the idea in your head that you are not good enough. I do not care that you think its a good coping mechanism it is absolutely not and you need to start challenging negative thoughts instead of feeding into them.

This is actually an incredibly western (and specifically American) thing. In a lot of other countries and cultures it’s NOT AT ALL uncommon for an adult to still live with their parents. As a second generation immigrant, it’s BEWILDERING to me. My cousin still lives with our grandmother; it’s important. She needs someone to watch after her, and she has the space… why wouldn’t he? This obsession with “adults” being “fully independent” of their parents is a fully American, bizarrely capitalist notion and it needs to be stomped into the ground.

The original Eartha Kitt recording of Santa Baby is the only good version because she’s the only one that puts any kind of irony or humour into it. She understands that the song is about a gold-digger singing to her sugar daddy, telling him about all the gifts she wants and buttering him up by telling him how “good” she’s been to him. And flirtatiously comparing him to Santa because he’s an old man who gives her gifts when she sits on his lap. Every other singer does the song as though they’re actually trying to fuck Santa.
