'The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.' ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

I wish I were arty sometimes...
not got an arty bone in my body, all mine are mechanical bones...
I can appreciate art and poetry and such but ask me to play a musical instrument and the sounds of titanic dying and metal tearing and people running away screaming is what you'd get....

Not sure how this is a prepper thing.
Personally, I think a prepper wouldn't stand out in a visible way. The ultimate opsec is to be just like everyone else...from the outside.

Too many steroids then scythe??
They damage the brain cells ya know!!
Its a thing about how you may feel overwhelmed by going against the tide of non preppers say how it would be easier to go the sheeple way...
and how its sometimes lonely being the only prepper in your family maybe...and maybe frightened or fearful of the future...
but that the prize gained bt being aware and a prepper is freedom and safety.
Well that's what I got anyway...
So poo poo you...

If I stand out I'm failing.
I'm a follower of the gray man philosophy.

I've been poo-poo-ed :'(
Haha, I know what you're saying mate.
Anyway, steroids don't damage brain cells. Abusing them can, but using them in small (controlled) doses is actually good for your health....yeah, the NHS don't tell you that, do they?!?!?!?
The picture is clever...except she looks a lot like an ex....but with one giant yellow foot haha.
If you say 'It's not a giant yellow foot, it's actually a grid' then you've just ruined a perfectly good joke.....so poo poo to you.

I want to live and thrive as a freeman, self reliant, self sufficient prepper and to do this I follow the gray man philosophy and make myself appear to look like a sheeple.
