  • A woman has a memoir called 'Sociopath' coming out, and Tim finds it boring because she won't confess to killing anyone.
  • Tim suggests the Journal could write about payday loans or credit scams instead of running an excerpt that makes people feel good about being sociopaths.
  • Tim acknowledges that not feeling emotions sucks, but questions what readers are supposed to get from this journey.
  • The goal of the memoir is unclear—should people try to act more like a sociopath, or is she just saying to live in your truth?
  • No one told her to try getting feelings; instead she was encouraged to live in her truth as a comfortable sociopath.
  • Tim calls the whole thing boring and claims the woman is just like every wealthy Santa Barbara mom he knows.
