I honestly don't like htop very much. I prefer regular top. I find the output more useful.

htop works much better to see multi-CPU utilization though. Filtering is really nice too.

Ah, I never find CPU utilization to be something that I need to watch. Looks neat and impressive on the screen, but once I know the percentage of CPU, I don't care about seeing a chart, but I need to see load numbers, processes and memory stats.

Annoying yourself is fine. Arguing with yourself is fine... But if you start to hear voices arguing back... Then you should worry.
However, I do feel your pain.
