Trees aren’t as self-righteous as you, that’s for certain.

    Can you please describe your observations and perceptions that lead you to feel I'm being self-righteous? I think the call might be coming from inside the house, if you catch my drift.

    I find sayings like this and the other similar accusation of projection in this sort of context really funny because they’re basically the evolved form of the schoolyard retort: “no, you!”

    Strange how we’ve somehow come to assume that they actually hold any weight despite being functionally the exact same. I mean, even then it was dumb.
