Someone who obtains something without effort or cost.... Really? Really? ☝️ That? Why is that such a problem for you?
Hym "Why is the Free-Rider thing such a problem? If I don't need to expend a lot of effort to obtain something; why should I be compelled to do so? You know, their is this meme that is a clip from an anime that I haven't seen and there is this character (likely the protagonist) who says 'I don't know why everyone hates lazy people so much... We didn't even do anything.' And I can relate to that. Is that what this is? It's too easy for me and needs to be made arbitrarily difficult? Why? Why be an obstacle? And how are you going to meditate that process? Like, it was too easy for 'Catch me outside girl' to become famous. All she had to do was tell Dr. Phil and her mother to go fuck themselves. Bam! Free-Rider. Has a rap career that is predicated on her initial unearned fame. A million dollars. And what constitutes 'effort?' I don't know that I could explicitly write dialogue for a show if I tried but I can write dialogue in relationship to a topic and the dialogue is broadly applicable and can, therefore, be used in a variety of different settings. There is no reason for me not to be credited and, in a just world, I could be paid for it. Just because I'm not in the right place at the right time or I don't have the means to do something does not mean that I shouldn't be credited for my contribution.

And that's another problem if have with you 'I put myself in a position to be here' types. Did you? Did you really? I'm sure some people did but does your outcome DIRECTLY coincide with your INITIAL plan for success? If the answer is 'No' then, no. You didn't set yourself up for anything. If your plan was to be the world's best carpenter and you somehow end up being the most famous K-pop singer AND you are surprised by your our success; you did not set yourself up for anything. You were 'working hard' and then some stuff happened. And now you are doing a thing that makes more money than your initial plan, is objectively less difficult than your previous endeavors, and you have the fame to go along with it. That isn't setting yourself up. There is a disconnect between the hard work and your outcome and, shit, how to I put this?.... What you're doing is obfuscating the relationship between the former and the latter through a sort of conceptual slight of hand. For example:
Intended outcome
/
Hard work-------Neutral/Perpetual/Failure
\
Unexpected outcome
Where do you fall? 👆 Here is not what the words 'Setting myself up for success' mean. So, what constitutes a free-rider?"

A gluten-free friend is a friend that sabotages every meal out with their bullshit. If a gluten-free friend senses people are having fun, they instantly become shit crippled, and ask if what they’re consuming has gluten.
We were having a great night last night when Justin got the bubble gut, and started yelling that his free range tofu had gluten in it. He totally fucked up the night; I’m putting him on the list of gluten-free friends.

sucka free love means a dating or marital relationship free from games, fakery, manipulation, abuse, control, fraud, or frontin'. Loving sucka free means you wisely choose your romantic partners and have no problem nexting chumps, losers, cheats or emotionally unavailable chicken heads from your life. Sucka free love means you love and respect yourself more than you ever love someone else.
Todd woke up one morning next to his new girl Ramona and shivered thinking about that controlling jealous witch he was dating last year realized he finally hknew what sucka free love was all about!
