We are so numb to it now but everyone forgets what it was like when the doors to the internet opened and we were all face to face with strangers and had no clue what we were suppose to do.

Being a total fuckwad seems like an option when you contrast it to how mundane the rest of your life was before the internet.

Like I remember sitting on the bus as a kid desperately ignoring every thing around me because I just wanted to do the shit and go home. That, school, and the ride back were the only social interactions with strangers that was expected of me. When we got cable internet and we started pumping the outside world directly into our eyeballs, telling it to "go fuck itself" seemed somewhat appropriate.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
