I want to be friends with everyone. Is that selfish of me? *Why yes, it certainly is. You're a very selfish little girl.* I want everyone to like me. Is that wrong of me? *It's human nature to want to be liked. However, wanting everyone to like you is quite selfish.* I want everyone to be happy. Is that bad? *For everyone to be happy, you'd have to remove their egos. Do you really want to mess with everyone so they become lifeless?* No! Of course not. I just want to be good. *You want friends. You want to be cared about.* I do. Is that so wrong of me to want? *Certainly. You're an extremely selfish girl.* But, people say they like me. Is that a problem? *It feels good, doesn't it? You feel warm and tingly.* I want more friends. I want to be wanted. *It's unfortunate none of your friends actually cherish you. You know that, yes?* Shut up. Be quiet. *You're selfish. You only think of yourself.* That's not true! Shut up! *You only want to feel good. You don't care about anyone else.* PLEASE BE QUIET. I DON'T WANT THIS NOISE. *Why? Aren't you the one saying these things, anyway?*
