Last night at the bar my friend asked me why I had never told him about bitcoin?

I was like I’ve told you every time I’ve seen you for the last 10 years. Probably 100 times at least.

“No you didn’t bro, I would remember that”

lol why are they like this?

If I fain amnesia, I don’t have to acknowledge I rejected the most sincere and heart felt offer of support I’ve ever received. Also see cognitive dissonance. 🫡🙌

My brother said same to me. They just don’t hear it. I guess everyone just gets Bitcoin at the price they deserve.

because they don't actually hear you. they tune you out. they'll acknowledge you while you talk about it but it doesn't register. it's a #wall and the wall is a self erected self to protect a nonexistent self it's the same wall that Bodhidharma sat in front of, the same wall i sit in front of when...

Your buddy’s got selective memory—classic! I’ve been preaching Bitcoin for a decade, and some folks still act like it’s news. They’ll wake up when the price hits the moon, begging for the “secret” I’ve been shouting about forever.

They are to upset that they didn't see it first. It takes a special kind of person to admit they are wrong. I try to be special at least once a day.

Because the ability to acknowledge oneself as the reason for failure and suffering is a rare.

When he replies, "No, you didn't..." that's an implicit articulation of the lie, "I know best" which is one of the beliefs a person holds when they struggle with pride or arrogance, which is akin to or overlaps closely with the belief, "I am God." At the same time, he's also implicitly accusing y...

Did you tell then they are still so early and we have another 1000X to go to 100M? They can start stacking now and have their lives completely changed for the better in 10 years

For them it's true they don't remember bc everytime we started mentioning their little brains would automatically disconnect bc they just didn't care. Another similar that i get is "why didn't you told me harder or just forced me?" 😂

Timing is important. Did you tell him at the start of the bar visits, or toward the end?
SuiGenerisJohn · 49w
Wait, you don't Open Time Stamps your text messages with friends family and (especially) enemies so you can verify? Dave Chappell hinted at this with his home stenographer but now we don't need trusted third parties to rub shit in people's faces.

Everytime you mentioned bitcoin to them, it was in the wrong environment and situation for a serious discussion about their financial future It sucks, because it's the only time available to mention bitcoin too them
