I'm here

40 years old

8 drinks in again

r9k isn't the same

4chan isn't the same

hasn't been for a long time

when did everyone get so mean?

or was I just ignorant?

too afriad to die

too afraid to live

sustain for the next 15-30 years i guess.

idk if there's anything beyond death.

i think at the least, the 'me' will be dead.

not like i have anything to back it up.

just a feeling.

Us old farts came from a world where there was no internet, where you learned to socialize face to face. Where there were consequences for being too earnest or too rude.

The people you see now learned to socialize online where any anonymous asshole can break you down, insult you, and be utterly honest with everything he says at all times.

On top of that, there's a subsection of people that just come here to be completely negative since social media has shut down any kind of negativity, forcing them to unleash it all here.

And frankly, a lot of the new users of 4chan are just plain stupid. Maybe naturally low IQ, maybe ignorant, but they aren't worth talking to most of the time. They have no background, no education, and are completely witless and humorless. Everything they know comes from youtube or memes. They're like half-people. I don't know. It's not good.

yeah, saying the wrong thing to the wrong person would get you in an actual physical fight.

I know r9k isn't the most positive place, but, it seemed we weren't mean. More just frustrated at our lot in life and lonely..idk

I'll put it this way:

If you thought all robots had a conscience, you thought wrong.
