As someone who didn't do much of note during his youth this is still impressive to me and I'm happy to encourage the author if I ever meet them.

I would disagree.

Whenever I see statements with absolute statements like anything, nothing, always, never, I question them.

We all stand on the shoulders of giants. So what we do is impressive for when we do it. What those in the past do is impressive for when they did it.

That's a really sad way of looking at things

It's not a "way of looking at things", it's a statement. A statement cannot be sad, and even if a statement makes someone sad, that doesn't make it false.

But in this thread it's all so heartwarming, or respectively turning statements that aren't dripping with soppy general statements that mean nothing into an "attitude" or "way of looking at things" (which remains BS, and reaching 500 karma and finding the downvote button doesn't make that false, either)
