One of the things that disappoints me most about life is how predictable it is. Many things I do end in outcomes I anticipate, particularly the way people respond to them. I often hold off on expressing feelings just to skip the part where people ignore them. I’d rather be irritated by ignorance than willful defiance, However...

I was very upset with a friend of mine about a trip we took recently. He was supposed to plan everything but instead, we did nothing and slept in his car. But because I'm upset about that, I'm apparently in the wrong. I'm simply not placid enough to accept a minimal turn of events. I'm in the wrong, because I didn't have a good time and he did. I'm in the wrong, because I have expectations that exceed the common man. Like sleeping on a bed and having a toilet. Or a scheduled event that makes spending hundreds on travel logical.

How do I win this? He’s not upset, had the greatest time in the world, and owes it to “great friends and even better ideas.” I think his standards are too low, I felt lied to, and I was uncomfortable 70% of the trip. I think my feelings were ignored since he spent so little effort in planning a trip that he said he would. I feel even more ignored that he won’t apologize.

There are so few things in life that are important enough to be upset about, if anything. But should I concede? I don’t think my friend will understand my perspective and apologize, so at what point do I decide that such a petty argument isn’t worth a friendship? How do I decide which feelings are important enough to fight for?

I also wonder if it’s possible to have both respect and friends.

Вейшнория (латиницей Viejšnoryja) - государство, которое согласно легенде учений "Запад-2017" соседствует с Белоруссией. Вейшнория занимает территорию большей части Гродненской областии северо-западных частей Минской и Витебской областей.[3] Граница Вейшнории в большой степени совпадает с границей Польши и СССР в 1920-1939 гг. Также замечено, что "Вейшнория" совпадает с территорией, где во время выборов президента в 1994 году большой процент избирателей проголосовал за Зенона Позняка.[4]

Belarus at ‘war’ with imaginary country of Veyshnoria A country invented as part of military exercises in Belarus has caught the imagination of locals, who have created a foreign ministry, flag , history and even its own Wikipedia page for the fictional nation.

Veyshnoria is one of three states made up for the Zapad 2017 military drills, which - according to the scenario - seek to invade Belarus and sow discord between Minsk and Moscow.

The map of the exercise, made public during the General Staff briefing on 29 August, shows Veyshnoria in the north-western regions of today’s Belarus, with Vesbaria and Lubenia lying in Lithuania and Poland, the Nasha Niva website reports. […]

How long do you have to empathize before you're humble enough to complain?

<a href=“http://fortune.com/2017/06/03/wwdc-women/”>This 82-Year-Old Woman Is WWDC’s Oldest Attendee</a>

Retired banker Masako Wakamiya was frustrated by the lack of mobile games that catered to the elderly, so the 82-year-old from Japan started taking online tutorials to learn how to write software code.

"I didn't see any apps for the elderly, so I decided to create my own," Wakamiya told Fortune.

Wakamiya, who first started using computers when she was 60-years-old, ultimately created a game in March.
