While We're On the Topic of Scammy Self-Help People...About That Landmark Forum...

Nothing is more annoying than someone who has found Landmark Forum. I've had friends in it. They then change from being your friend to being your own personal annoying telemarketer, someone who won't take no for an answer, who doesn't get a hint, and who is worse than 10 multi-level marketing people screaming on your doorstep.

I had a friend who got into a similar organization, Lifespring, in the 90s. It ended our friendship. She turned into a dippy, brainwashed parrot who could only speak Lifespring platitudes to me and spend our time together constantly hounding me to come to a free introductory session so I could then commit to hundreds of dollars in personal brainwashing. No thank you.
