Default A Jealous Child

Sorry Bob, you're wrong on just about all counts. With perhaps a few exceptions, no one
is angry or jealous of your life or your boat. Your 32 may be nice but its hardly
"superior." You keep claiming to sail a lot, but you never leave your little corner of
LIS, nor have you been out for more than one or two nights. Almost everyone here has
sailed longer and further than you. Even the boats you trash the most seem to get used
more than yours. A number of us have been paid to sail for years. Others have taken
extended trips far beyond anything you dream of. And a number of us are retired or taking
time off for sailing and family obligations.

Sorry Bob, no one here is angry or outraged, though most of us are rather embarrassed for
you.

This group is obviously angry about my superior C&C 32 and outraged that I will
have the 34XL next. Like any child, their only recourse is to complain about
how I play with my toy!
Surely they'd make better use of it!
But how??? I already sail more than most of the people here. I deserve better
and better vessels. I also deserve to pay less than the rest of the world.
Why?
Because I sail and make time for my work.
The rest of you work and make time to sail.
You all have it ass-backwards because sailing is a hobby for you. It's not
truly in your hearts and souls.
There will be an even nicer boat after the C&C 34XL.
Because it's what I deserve.

The rest of you make up one seasick and jealous child.
