Do you agree with Dr Johnson?

"for he who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man." Is this the solution to life's pain?

hi Sunujing
yes of course- that isa time honoured escape. However it then creates the pain of being a beast which can only be escaped by making a man of yourself.

Reminds me of Avenged Sevenfold. They used that quote in one of my favorite songs from them.
Anyway, I think it's a temporary fix. You can't escape your problems forever.

I guess I'm half beast by now then 😄 and it does get rid of at least annoying and unnecessary confrontations .
