What the fuck
Even for WSO it's a strange post
well, username checks out
would also like to know, aside form the witty stuff, how are you supposed to answer that if all you've done unironically is sit at your desk all day.

Well that depends on the definition of “doing”, like physically or the spiritual or metaphysical sense? Personally I could be doing better in all facets, but I could also be doing worse.

“Better than I deserve”
That’s a BEAST of an answer
Thank u sir
More than I deserve, less than I desire.
Feeling blessed
Just living the dream.
