I am so utterly exhausted with the endless, mindless chatter in the modern world about “social this” and “social that.” You can’t exist online, in the workplace, or even in casual conversation without someone piping up about their “friend group,” their “social circle,” their "friends of friends," their “social milestones,” as though these things were universal currency we’re all supposed to value and understand.

This whole world of “friend circles” and “being invited to parties” might as well be written in hieroglyphics for all I can make sense of it. It’s alien to me, it’s irrelevant, incomprehensible, and frankly, rather tiresome. I am in my late 20s and have never been to a party in my life. I cannot fathom how people have the time, energy, or even the patience to treat these things as markers of meaning in their lives. “Oh, I went to this dinner, I have this group chat, we all do this together"...and? So what? Is that supposed to be impressive? Enlightening? A great existential achievement?

And when people talk about fucking "milestones." What a nauseating concept. As if one’s worth can be plotted out on some imaginary graph of “number of parties attended” versus “times tagged in group photos.” It’s infantilising, really.

Then there's the smug declarations that you “need a social life,” that it’s some vital organ without which you’re not fully human. The assumption baked into that phrase is staggering: that my life, in all its intricacies and quiet pursuits, is somehow incomplete because I don’t participate in the endless merry-go-round of drinks, parties, and “networking.” As if solitude is some kind of disease, as if enjoying one’s own company is automatically pathological. Not everyone needs the validation of a “squad”. Some of us are just fine without the circus entourage.

That's the whole problem. The corporate action of "networking" is what most people do now. Forming relationships for business and nothing else.

What irritates me most, though, is the sheer banality of it all. People parade their “social lives” as though they are profound things, when really, it is just the same tired rituals repeated ad nauseam. Different pub, same pint. Different dinner, same small talk. Different group chat, same recycled memes. It’s astonishing how much energy is wasted on the endless maintenance of these so-called “connections,” which, if we’re being honest, often amount to little more than acquaintances clinging together like so many bits of dogshit on one's shoe.

So yes, I don’t “get it,” I don’t want to get it, and I’m not going to apologise for that. If people want to chase their little social milestones and congratulate each other for another Saturday night out, fine. But don’t come knocking on my door preaching about how I “need” it too. I don't even have any online friends with whom to play shitty Steam games, why would I be interested in any of your asinine mingling?

Oh, it's a copypasta.

Not a copypasta. I actually wrote it, ta. Some of us are capable of stringing more than three sentences together, ESL tard.

If your only frame of reference for longer-than-average text online is “must be copypasta,” that says more about your attention span than it does about me.
