What the fuck is it with zoomers and liminal spaces, or, as they were normally called before their autism took hold, "empty rooms"?

Seriously, there is absolutely nothing scary about this.

>>214224826 (OP)
Is that what a liminal space is, I never cared enough to look it up.

>>214224826 (OP)
Liminal spaces are more comforting than creepy

zoomers are not used to large buildings
they live in tiny cuck apartment blocks
and they've went to work & school online since 2020 happened.

You're not supposed to be there because it's closed. Spooky.

>>214224920
That makes it extra comfy since I KNOW there won't be other people there to ruin it for me.

>>214224901
a Wal-Mart or a Home Depot is a fuckhuge building, everyone living in a developed nation is used to large buildings

I remember the main lobby area of my grandmother's former retirement home place having a fresh coat of paint and it, and I imagine the manicured and clean nature of the place, all smelling like little bread rolls you'd get at a restaurant, to me, and this alarmed my young mind. place.. food? but not quite food? maybe coming from unrectifiable memories of things we didn't understand, which isn't quite far but for a developing mind maybe tapping the gas on the same mechanism that would grow to be fear, later on
All this to say it probably comes from some childhood shit

>>214224826 (OP)
Oh yeah? How about I run screaming down the hall at you dressed like a spooky ghost? Would you like that?

>>214225023
I would simply run into one of the doors across the liminal space and force you to chase after me, but when you run after me, I'll already be running out of another door on the opposite side.

>>214225010
Was the bread roll…in your ass? Try to unlock the memory.

>>214225010
I would've thought the idea of a building where old people go to die together would be more unnerving than a place that smells like bread rolls, but you do you.

>>214225023
Well then I might actually be in danger, so yes, that would be more scary. Nothing can harm me in an empty room, dumbass.

>>214224826 (OP)
that's not really scary
but imagine it going on forever. just the same shabby hotel hallway, repeated endlessly. you'd go crazy.
nobody calls it "scary" but there's some kind of creepiness underlying empty rooms and hallways. Kubrick understood this.

Except they aren't empty in The Shining, you retarded faggot, there's psychic ghosts chasing them.

y r wyte bois afrayd of empty roomz

Liminal spaces are like the feeling of when you’re in an empty building as a child, imo. Exploring them was fun, and a little spooky, for no reason. And like you’d get to a part of the building were the lights were dimmer and just not go there because there’s something a little bit different, but you don’t know how to articulate that conceptually

Why are you samefagging with your phone to start yet another "akshully it was millennials" vs "too geriatric and aloof to know or care" thread?
They're always boring and suck shit

>ahhhhh I'm losing my mind in this property I will never be able to afford
Those limp wristed queers are a permanent let down to humanity. We never complained back in my day and we worked hard and got rich as a result. Try it someone you half-fags!

zoomers were the first generation to be significantly smaller than the previous one, so many spaces they experienced growing up were meant for a larger number of kids per metro area, resulting in a plurality of empty, ominous spaces

>>214224826 (OP)
It's scary because someone may come out and walk towards your direction and that's awkward like where do I look

>>214224855
>the "back of house" spaces of large stores
>a Mall or other large building usually full of people but empty after business hours
That is literally all liminal spaces are. If you've ever worked in either of the examples I mentioned you've experienced "liminal spaces". Zoomers don't understand anything they don't see on their phone or the 2ft diameter circle of their peripheral vision the perceive while looking at their phone.

>>214226285
I thought it was like a small space not an empty space. Empty spaces are fun, you can hide and fuck in them.

>>214224826 (OP)
would the forest in Blair Witch be a liminal space? It's kind of like an infinite forest, they walk around and never get out even with a compass and stuff

>>214225050
>we start running in and out of different doors while wacky music plays
>We run into each other face to face and get scared, both running back into the doors we just came from

All the areas generation z occupied were overly busy and bright. “Liminal” spaces are sparsely/uniformly decorated areas between other areas. The lack of audio/visual engagement leaves them alone with their thoughts and that is where the fear comes in.

This seems a little less insane if you picture the agender person as a female. Like... this is some illogical shit that makes perfect sense to be coming from a woman, bitch was probably on her period or some shit.

>>214224826 (OP)
They're very sensitive. Gen X fucked a generation.

Not a zoomer, but it's not about normal empty rooms, but empty spaces that go on and on without any indication of a way out. If you've ever seen anything concerning the Back Rooms, it's clearly some weird, other-dimension type shit. Plus some versions of it have monsters and government conspiracies and stuff. It's not just "ooh, the living room is empty."

>>214224826 (OP)
What the fuck is it with zoomers and made up words?

>>214224855
Liminal spaces is locations with impossible geometry like a tower that is always the same distance away or a room that changes size depending on where you are in the room

Don't feel too bad, lil zoom zooms. 20 years ago, all the boomers were soifacing over this retarded book like it was the most horrifying thing devised by man.

>>214225302
The Oldest View is superior to Backrooms for the sheer fact that the giant was based on a real art piece, based on a real man and was seen and appreciated by real people. I don't know if Kane Pixels is from Dallas or what but he made what seemed like a legitimate deeply personal and respectful to some cheap local art piece.

There's nothing more comfy than an empty mall especially one that has a theatre in it.

>>214224826 (OP)
It's just mildly unsettling, which can be interesting in and of itself, but because zoomers are so coddled even mild unsettlement becomes lovecraftian existential terror that they then immediately ruin with their other autistic impulse to write overly detailed lore for everything.

>>214227606
House of Leaves is kino, only autists hate it because they can't skip past filler pages like this and have to obsessively read it and try to find meaning.

>>214224826 (OP)
It's nostalgic if anything

>>214225159
>there's psychic ghosts chasing them.
No, there isn’t. Holy fuck do you jeets actually watch these movies

Op is so old

Backrooms = scary

Liminal spaces = dreamlike, spooky, aesthetic

Know the difference

>>214227521
a liminal space is just an area with some kind of transitional aspect. a hallway between rooms, a border, the place you grew up, the styx.
