social disconnect

A social disconnect is a person who avoids socializing with people due to one or all of the following: past bad experiences, general dislike of people, feeling different from others or feeling inadequate- this can be caused by being put down constantly or talked down to, being used by others, being underestimated by peers. People who are social disconnects rarely spend time in groups of people to avoid bad things from happening. People who are social disconnects have often been victims of social parasites so they withdraw from groups of people or people in general. In some extreme cases, social disconnects may become sociopaths. If a social disconnect can find a group of true friends, this can help them to be more trusting of others and helps them with their healing process.

Now is the winter of our discontent

Originally coined by Shakespeare in the opening line of Richard III: "Now is the Winter of our Discontent / Made glorious summer by this son of York", written around 1592. It was used to describe Richard III (from the house of York), feeling discontented in living in a world that hates him. The term has since then been used in various forms, such as 'The winter of discontent', describing the winter of 1978–79 in the United Kingdom during the Labour party pay caps of the time. It was also used 'Now is the winter of your discontent!' by Stewie Griffin in the TV show family guy before Stewie attacks Brian with a snow-cannon.
