        You’re such an asshole, it’s comical. Like you just go out of your way to be hateful for no real reason.

            The fact that you unironically use the phrase “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” just shows how much of a muppet you are. It is physically impossible to pull yourself up by your bootstraps.
