We are ****ing pathetic

[A Forgotten Legend]

@ Cerebus The latter.

@Carrion 2010=/=2009 has to do with you starting you're account in '07, so three year hiatus would make it '10 not '09.

EDIT: oh.  I already had my theory.  But we cannot tell his train of thought.  For it is Lucas we are talking about. haha. Just Kidding Lucas. =D

[carrionmarksman]

I know he started it but I was thinking just a list saying that

So and so agrees with Me

But I can see it's kind of silly now. I just want to think of something interesting to make a sig out of.

@AFL - Oh lol. I'm bad at math and when I left it was around mid year. I rounded up haha. It was almost 3 years I guess.

@Fruckert - There's ANOTHER thread about this?

BY THE WAY, right now we are being social by discussing normal things with each other - even if they are forum related.

[Linkizcool]

Dude all I can say is that my "ask a dumb question, get a dumb answer" thread has been alive for almost five years now. I'm impressed. Its kind of like a virtual immortality.

[Archem]

I don't ****ing exist. How pathetic is that?!

[fruckert]

And then there's the Word Association Game, which is also pretty old.

BTW, I am getting a lot of crappy dating ads now.
"GothScene".

[Drace]

I'm confused on the definition of troll =/

Lurk more.

I get paid for it. And I have this beach half a mile away, and a mall just down the hill. A bit further than that there's a nightclub. I go to these places every week. There's 24 hours in a day, I sleep 6 and am in the computer around 6 other hours. take about 45 mins to eat all together a day. Spend about 7 minutes in the bathroom all together, 12.25 minutes in the shower. that's still about 9+ hours for me to either: play games, or run errands for a lot of people. Which is usually the latter.

I WISH I SPENT MY WHOLE DAMN TIME ON THE PC. LIFE WOULD BE EASIER.

*sigh* I miss being young.

[Tina Branford]

Well, if it's any consolation to the more anti-social among us, they're making pretty good progress with virtual reality. So there probably won't be a distinction between the internet and real life in the next 30 years or so.

[drenrin2120]

Uh, I spend a good amount of time on the computer being lame, but I'm okay with it 'cuz I still get out a lot and have plenty of friends. I don't know, I enjoy the time on the computer making games, writing music/stories/lyrics or just surfing forums, because it's kind of like "me time."

[Fortet]

... the ****?

Whatever. I enjoy how I spend all of my time. I don't look at it as if it's been wasted. I also have no regrets, but that's from a personal belief kind of thing.
But if "pathetic" is the word you wish to use, then, yeah, I guess so..?

[Razor]

Your rant is pathetic, lucas.

This.

I wouldn't say this is a troll thread, ever since people discovered trolling, people have been shouting "troll!" at anything they don't disagree with. It's retarded. Like this thread.
No, this is something different.

What this is, I'd wager, is Lucas having a self-realising moment, and in an act of desperation, taking it out on all of us. As if he knew any of us.
It's all generalisations targeted at a certain clique of people, internet users, on a place he's most easily going to find them  - THE INTERNET.


That said, using the computer a lot does not make you pathetic. Chatting with people on the internet? Making friendships on the internet? How does that make you pathetic? It's socialising. Socialing is important. Humans have been doing it forever. Doing in through the internet makes it easier, since we can hide all our insecurities and just talk.
Playing and making games? Drawing and working to music? How are these things pathetic? Seriously?
Maybe it's all pathetic to the stereotpyical sports jock, but that just goes back to generalising again.

tl;dr **** you Lucas, cry some more.

[Uberpwn_w00t]

Yeah, in all seriousness, I've adapted to a state of mind that doesn't really even allow for self-pity. Much like Fortet, I have no regrets. The time I spend is well spent. What other people choose to think of it is irrelevant.

I used to have a low self-esteem, but not anymore. I'm not pathetic. At least, that's what I think, and that's all that matters.

Like I've said before, I live by the mantra "I don't care."

[Prpl_Mage]

Okay.

Our lives are far from pathetic.

I'd choose to sit around my computer playing any game rather than going with my semi-friend classmates to some party where they all drink far too much, start throwing up at the floors and being awfully rude to every women in sight. Actually, they all just pick fights, listen to the same crappy music over and over, talk **** about everyone, mention how people are in bed ect.

I mean, I might not be as "social" as them party people but I don't mind. Hell, I rather enjoy the internet company of people who aren't afraid to say that they like videogames.
My classmates are all "No videogame talk now, we need to shine for the ladies" even in school. They act all cool and tough but once we get home from school we boot up Warcraft 3 or L4D and play for 5 hours.
People are ashamed of videogames simply because girls don't like guys who play Super mario galaxy on the weekends.
But hey - their loss. They could just've scored a guy who cares about them and treat them with respect if they could overlook the fact that they play videogames when she's not seeing him.

So no, we are not pathetic. Fashion bros and bitchy girls are pathetic wasting their lives in an imaginary party world where they are in centre. Hoping that someone will think they are hot/read their blog/watch her facebook/stalk her on twitter so that she gets a movie part or 3 seconds in a phone commercial - or god forbid" Getting into "Do you think you can dance?" or "Idol".


At least I'm doing something with my life. I'm not dancing it away.

That about the bed thing, I fucken hate that. I don't care what you do with who and when. It's nasty. You're a friend, I don't want to know the nasty things you do. I don't care.

Myself, I'm as introverted as possible on that area. Hate acting all high and mighty because I got some booty, it's not that big a deal.

EDIT: Took some time to read more, about hiding that you play the vidya. Lame. I don't hide my hobbies, they shouldn't either. Either you get a girl who doesn't mind when you game or you're obviously going to get a bitch who's not gonna let you enjoy your hobby anymore. One of my best friends has that problem, poor sob.

Protip: Get gfs who like gaming. That's winrar and you all know it xD

[Ben]

Holy. You know, its possible to have a life outside of the internet.
