I don't know about BPD but I do know that for years it's bothered me listening to people talk about their problems in the total absence of political context. But that's true in and out of AA if you're out here in the Rube Gallery. In fact, that's what makes it the Rube Gallery.
Speaking of drunks, it's come to my attention that the world could not run without them. Fer instance, in many restaurants I've worked in, there are very talented people, doing incredibly stressful jobs, getting under-paid, but staying in those jobs. Why? Cause when they aren't working, their energy is focused on drinking. At Pero's, two men who should be running their own kitchens are instead making like $9 an hour. People couldn't afford to eat out if it wasn't for drunks and illegal aliens without health coverage.
