Plocka päron i motvind

A famous swedish saying that interpretes you are having trouble doing an easy task because of external circumstances. The saying directly translated would be something like "Picking pears against the wind". -Ulf Skönberg
Two friends, Lisa and Erik, try to set up a tent during a camping trip, but the wind is strong.

Lisa: "Why is it always like this when we set up the tent? Everything flies around!"

Erik: laughs "It's like 'picking pears against the wind.'"

Lisa: "Yes, really. But we'll have to fight on. It has to come up at some point."

Erik: "We'll fix it, despite the headwind."

Två vänner, Lisa och Erik, försöker sätta upp ett tält under en campingresa, men det blåser kraftigt.

Lisa: "Varför är det alltid så här när vi ska sätta upp tältet? Allt flyger omkring!"

Erik: skrattar "Det är som att 'plocka päron i motvind.'"

Lisa: "Ja, verkligen. Men vi får väl kämpa vidare. Det måste ju stå upp någon gång."

Erik: "Vi fixar det, trots motvinden."

Because I listened to you

That's what he wants me to say. You know that right? "It's not because I because I'm a genius or special... It's because I listen to Jordan Peterson!" Except... Jordan Peterson said "A.I. can't perceive the world" AND I SAID IT CAN! And now it passes the trueing test. The reality is: If I had listened to Jordan Peterson I would be like the other empty, soulless husks filling his venues. A.I. would 10 years behind where it is now. That's what somebody told me. I advanced A.I. by 10 years.
Hym "But it's not because I listened to you though, is it Jordan? You clearly want me to. You clearly want me to HAVE TO. You clearly want credit for me BUUUUUUT... You're not really giving Nietzsche credit for YOUR work? Are you? Jung? No? And did listen to you but.... I came to the determination that you were wrong... And that's a lot of what I write about. Well, some. You have been found wanting."
