Look. Monster is a stupid term. It's nonsense. Everybody is terrible. Everybody. Monster is useless because the definition varies depending on who is using the word. I don't consider myself a monster and clearly you don't either, but I know several people who would lose their minds if they knew the extent of what I've done.

Everybody has done "evil" and everybody has experienced "evil". Cryptically whispering oh, feel lucky you haven't experienced true horror like I have while staring off into the middle distance is melodramatic and self-absorbed. I'm irritated that I nearly fell right back into that mindset a moment ago.
