    What are your new years resolutions? If any...

    I have been working on NOT being so standoffish with strangers and mild acquaintances. I want to be nicer, but still firm.
    (I do this because I like spending time on my own projects and don't want too many friends hanging around)

    I want to be bold enough to tell the stranger he/she stinks and should clean themselves better so others won't reject them so much.
    (I am fed up with people being nice and accepting of vulgar and offensive things they see in other people, we need to actively help each other be better)

    I want to buy fewer shoes, I buy too many, and some I know I will never wear.
    (sometimes I buy the same shoe in 3 different colors)

    More of this is 2016

    I was going to setup a recognition of jewish privilege event, but then second guess if they'd allow a non-denominational freelancer type to do it.

    My new year's resolution is to quit second guessing myself, except when its necessary, I guess.

    My new year's resolution is to read the whole Bible. I've read it once before front-to-back but I was a teenager, so I feel it's time to do another thorough read through and study.

    I have been gradually transiting from being nice since ca 1986. My 2016 resolution is for me to celebrate my 48th birthday.

    Separating the two is your first step in being nicer? To both?

    Fair notice. Your clue that I don't consider you to be mentally incompetent is if I am NOT nice.
