We are ****ing pathetic

[forgetaboutit]

I mean, really. Most of us spend our days looking at the computer, chatting with people that we have never actually met before, playing or making games, and a few like to draw or work with music.
And thats all. We have no lives outside the computer.
Of course, there are exceptions. I myself have a nice number of friends and hang out with them often. But still. During a huge part of my day, I am just pathetic. And so are most of you.

Talk about it.

[carrionmarksman]

We aren't THAT pathetic. Our definitions must be different. At least we ARE talking to other human beings. I have a social life, as well as a Part-Time job, and soon I will be joining the 9-5 world of work. I'm sure others have the same. Those of us aged below 17 or 18 have to attend school, which forces us to deal with other people every day, face to face.

I understand what you mean, and while I don't really understand the sudden outburst, I say that we aren't all that bad. Charas is like a big family (a rather dysfunctional one at times, haha), and the limitations of where we live is not stopping us from talking to people with common interests with uncommon living locations and cultures.

I know...

I would elaborate, but I'm eating eggs right now. Coincidentally, preparing them was the most exciting thing I've done today.

Also note that I am eating them at the computer.

Huh?  I'm pretty sure my life is nonexistant to being with because of my activities. -.-"

[Bluhman]

I'm trying to add something worthwhile to this conversation other than "I am pathetic" but I'm having a rather hard time.

...I AM PATHETICS.

[carrionmarksman]

Well you've typed words that I'm reading right now AFL, so you and your life must exist. Also, a nonexistent person can't be a Drum Major. You must have worked very hard for that, and that's part of your own personal life.

@Bluhman - I haven't really participated in a conversation with many people on here, but whenever I see the funny posts and jokes some of you guys make I laugh pretty hard.

Come on guys.

Thanks for reminding. Jerk.

I'm starting to get a little frustrated here. I'd rather be part of an online community doing things that I enjoy, and discussing everything with like-minded individuals, than being with a bunch of stupid jocks or "cool kids" that get into trouble and peer pressuring you into bad situations. I tried that. I didn't like it. I created a close group of friends and overall felt much secure about myself and others were happy. From what I understand, Charas is sort of like the same strong, close community. Hell, we're close to invincible. From reading our well-documented history (thank you Saikar), I was surprised to hear all of the stuff that went on before I even came here, and during my absence.

[Darkfox]

Ha-ha! True. I don't consider myself pathetic for being here, I'm all around too. Different places. I actually IMPROVED my grammar partially from the internet. After seeing how most people typed, I wanted to type properly. And when I was feeling down, I joined Charas and made my first friends there. Heck, I started spriting on Charas.

I'm really not ashamed at all.

What I mean is that i have no real social life because that is all I have time for. gah.

[carrionmarksman]

Oh. Well still, talking with people is a social thing, and we're talking right now, aren't we?

[A Forgotten Legend]

haha true.

[Valiere]

I may be pathetic, but I'd rather be the way I am than like the bulk of the millions of other people in my age group.

*Fixed. We aren't pathetic. People who lay in the gutter of the street with needle holes between their fingers are pathetic. People who hit their spouse, sexual partner or children are pathetic. People who pick on other people because of their own insecurity are pathetic.

I totally agree. Prefer being a lonely pathetic "geek" (althought I don't consider myself a geek) than a gangsta wanabe fag rhyming and chilling while smoking pot or drinking until being sick.
