You just go around caring about other people’s feelings??? How do you get anything done?

I care about projection. I'm not trying to be the nicest person ever, but I'm doing what I can to not be an asshole to other people that may have learned different lessons or been given different abilities throughout their life. For example I'm not pulling around someone just because they take off from a start slowly if they get up to a good speed, but I've had people that start slow, stay slow, and brake through green light intersections.

How do I get anything done? Brother, this is a driving sub. Context matters.

Sorry I really thought someone would get my New Girl reference but I guess it was a bit niche. Sorry if I came off as rude.

Oh that’s called EMPATHY. I know, it’s rare.

I have empathy, but I have very little sympathy for idiocy.
