Shows you where their priorities really are. That's the thing about most people here, and why they don't like me. At least, as far as I see it.
I admit it -- I'm looking out for me. I'll help someone out if it doesn't do me any harm. But choosing between me and someone else? It's me every time. And I say it. Them? They claim they're all about other people. Until someone doesn't fit their ideas. And even the people who do? Backs to the wall, I bet at least most of them would save themselves. Sure, torture themselves about it later. But in the moment? All for themselves.
