This is the answer. But my man is actively resisting.

The poster who recommended the 1990 remake might be the best suggestion.

But NOTLD is THE "trapped inside with monsters outside hey look the problem is internal" movie. They really captured magic making it and I can go on about it at great length.

I swear Reddit is like the Monorail episode of the Simpsons. You think it solves all society's problems.

I saw someone suggest Robinson as a stop, makes sense right? Popular shopping destination, lots of traffic and parking...

Now think about it. Tell me where you'd like to put the one stop this train would make, then tell me how a person is meant to get to Ikea to do some shopping and Bravo for something to eat. It's a thing called The Last Mile, it's not hard to get a large group of people to one spot, the problem is then getting all those people to where they actually need to go. Nobody wants to take a train and then try to get an uber. They'd rather just drive. So they will, and you've got yourself a really expensive train nobody rides. Thought we already had that...

28X costs less than $3 and takes you to the airport. What are you trying to improve? Or do you just think trains are cool?

It's good of you to ask and be aware. Know that already you've accomplished a lot.

Maybe for you it's different, but for me jealousy always went hand in hand with ego. Worried someone was better, upset that they had more than me, concerned my girl might leave me for someone she wanted more.

But here's the deal. There's always someone better. There will always be someone with more. I'm just a regular guy, not the world's best anything.

And that's great. You know the stress attached to being the best at anything? It's a lot. Let them have it. I'm the best at one thing, being me. That's all I can do.

But what if a woman I love leaves me for another man?!? They have, couple of them now. Guess what? It sucked at the time, but now I'm thankful. I don't want anyone in my life who'd rather be with someone else.

I think that's self esteem, I don't know, weird feeling. But it makes the jealousy wash away. I have nothing to be jealous of. I have me, I kinda really like me. And I hope that the people I choose to let into my life feel the same. Even if I'm not the best.

Hope that makes sense. Good luck to you.
