Ok that is an amazing idea (and please take it and run with it btw!!) BUT I feel compelled to add that part of me wants to remove the I-suck-so-much part? Or... maybe that's not what I mean. And, come to think of it, maybe you had the same idea. It's just - when I picture it, the story places the blame squarely on the context that creates a certain kind of apathy, and not on the person experiencing the apathy. So maybe this Mycroft thinks "ugh I suck so much" to himself, but the narrator is definitely meant to think to themselves "noooooooooooo Mycroft IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT."

...I've been thinking about that "How Millenials Became the Burnout Generation" buzzfeed piece a lot.
