burning it down
the worst part of coming back onto this site to get in touch with old friends is finding out they havent been here in 5 years. sucks when you miss someone a lot but cant do anything about it
jb have u really watched 285 days of anime?
Yeah it's weird to look at forum culture + something that was a pretty big part of the Internet for years and years die off and get replaced after spending so much time there.I miss the old Serebii but I can get why it's dead since forums in general have died more or less.
Oh well. How bout a topic? How bout that... uh, sports team... Actually, I think there was something really interesting that happened in sports news recently, and I can't remember what it was. No, no, it wasn't the Cubs winning the World Series, that was a year ago.
That's the only possible reason I can think of. They could offer zero dollar footlongs and I still wouldn't eat at Subwayidk if sandwiches count as desert, but I saw somewhere that Subway is bringing back $5 footlongs, but I think it might only be temporary. It's probably a good idea, though, since that is my (and probably a lot of peoples') high point that I'm willing to pay for one of those things. I think that whole deal was the only reason they got as big as they did in the first place.

It's even weirder when you look at the sort of cyclical nature of the Internet and technology and realize that the institutions we have now (Twitter, Facebook, etc) are slowly becoming too big to be replaced (maybe they already have)
And then you log onto the first forum you ever signed up for to see what's new and you realize you joined when you were a middle schooler to try and trade Pokemon with strangers, and now you're a sophomore in college and you haven't touched a Pokemon game in years.
Yeah. Somehow. That is almost a year of my life lmaojb have u really watched 285 days of anime?

Yeah, I don't remember either. Of course, I know ****-all about non-Misc sections, so anything's possible, I guess.
Wow, 8 years what is your deal? And tbh I can't even imagine what forum posts devoid of content would look like -- thank goodness they put a stop to that!

It's pretty easy to get your life sucked away by waifu garbage. It's like, uh, some kinda demon. Succubus-ish in nature.

Also, if Jb or anyone else actually has watched almost a year of shows, throw some recs my way. I finished The Sopranos last week and I need something to fill the extra hours in my day now.
I'm at a really weird fence and very conflicted about it. I still come here once in a while just to get in touch with exactly two people while I already have the rest of my friends on Facebook. So now I'm the only one on that group still here because of two people and while I do like messing around with them it's also kind of the worst because they can't stop browsing this place that died after like 2012/2013(?) and now neither can I because what is letting go of the past. I feel like one of those people that still log on MySpace and that's never going to feel normal.
I got all grumpy and pouty on the way to work after reading the following that morning:
Mainly because I'm weird kid who overthinks things all the time but now I've learned something as well
You could be way more desensitised than what you seem to be from my (terrible) perspective, but maybe you're good at hiding and masking it in the form of burning Xbox 360s and stuff
Not 100% sure I follow you here, but if you're saying that you were grumpy and pouty from overthinking my post, the "8 years, what's your deal?" thing was a joke (I've been here for TEN). And the "posts devoid of content" comment was me saying that, even if clubs were as spammy as all get-out (which, tbf, they were), the result of cracking down on that meant that nobody posted there, instead of just making so-called "meaningful" posts (which is probably as much of a reason as any that this place is a ghost town; forums were founded on the arts of derailing, trolling, and shitposting).
@ Rezzo what genre of shows are you into
I'm 95 hours into Xenoblade 2, only on chapter 6 lol. Lots of **** to do, Nia is best girl
I assume you seen the staples like Higurashi, Ookami Kakushi, Umineko, and others like, Another, Now and Then, Here and There?
I've finally been baptized today. I almost cried in front of everyone, so I didn't say very much. I was very surprised at it, but I felt very happy, and my journey of re-conversion finally "ended" today and a new journey has begun.
I decided to do the /r/RoastMe thing on Reddit, and was sorely disappointed.
I was expecting the roasts to be brutal, but the only thing brutal was their poor attempts.
