"Better than Cosmo! Others just recite facts, but I like your posts best because of the in-depth analysis."
"Great work! Your stuff is a sight for sore eyes in this wash of dumbed down crap for the masses I see all the time on the internet."
"Greg is a dapper gent, intelligent, and easy to hang with. He made me feel right at home in his film noir-esque lair. We talked at great length about books, influences (we both write), and on a broad range of topics that might cause one to raise an eye brow while pondering. He was great fun to roam the city with. I'm looking forward to another round of pursuing art exhibits and deep dialog over late night coffees the next time we cross paths."
"Greg! Thank you so much! I will not forget this! Your help will make it easier for me to secure a job when I get back home from Switzerland!"
"Dude I hate to write you about this again but those nutrition tips you sent me were a fucking godsend. Anyway, I do appreciate ya... you're a good egg."
"Dear Mr. Greg: You are creative and amusing... two things I find irresistible. If I didn't live so far away, I'd go after you myself! Thanks for all the laughs."
"Hey thanks for all the stuff on girls and relationships. I was up reading last night for like 3 hours. We had an earthquake not too long ago here in California, but man, some of the stuff you wrote shook me more than the quake!"
"I have to say, you provided several hours of entertainment for me just now. It is a great thing to know there are other people with similarly twisted senses of humor and intelligence. Thank you very much Greg Thompson, and good luck with the woman of your dreams. Should you ever feel the need to entertain me again, please feel free to do so, I'll take it any way I can get it."Archive for 'fear' tag

Monday, June 22nd, 2009Not long ago I was stuck in a dingy machine shop 20 miles from nowhere waiting around for the mechanics to install a new pipe and muffler on my car.
This was not because I love automobiles or get some kind of visceral thrill from rumbling engines and screaming tailpipes.
No I was here because not 3 [...]

Sunday, October 26th, 2008You’re in a supermarket, on a bus, or in a restaurant. You see a girl who is just so perfect – the exact look you like, the body you dream about, and glowing a sort of irresistible feminine energy that could melt cheese from across the room.
And what did you do?
That’s easy. You did what [...]
Understanding Hedonism Part 4: What’s The True Measure of Success?
Saturday, August 9th, 2008Normally, my existential views would automatically lead me to say “Success is anything you want it to be. It’s up to you to give your life meaning.”
And that’s still true.
But since we’re all flesh-and-blood biological machine human beings who cannot rise above our own humanity (not that we’d WANT to, but still) there exists a [...]

How To Make Yourself Immune To Jealousy
