Everyone needs validation sometimes.
I don't trust people who are constantly happy for no reason with no apparent external or internal motivation for being like that. Think about it like this: lawyers, used car salesmen, and politicians look happy way too often despite the fact that nobody likes them... yeah, no. I'd rather talk to the person who doesn't think that they're infallible because their first thought if I were to drop dead in front of them wouldn't be whether my organs would fetch a good price.

I know the feeling, man.
Fuckin' sucks ass.
