And I think it might have something to do with her keeping Tom from being my only friend on Myspace. I think... I think Tom might have killed her...



Crap, he's staring at me. What do I do?

The fact remains that social networking sites are one of the many eternal septembers that have accumulated since the early days.

I, for my part, am one of those people who started coming to the internet so they could escape from those very people that are now flooding into it in masses, motivated by the possibility of uploading the latest cellphone pictures of themselves shirtless and drunk on their profiles.
Even if they don't come here themselves, they do bring their elementary school siblings who are susceptible to the fantasy of sticking it into Sonic's pixelated rear end a bit too much along.

Besides, what's so bad about melodramaticism? Just because life is a stale and uneventful POS that will eventually work out somehow no matter how much one would wish it not to, you don't have to represent it as such.

Different crowd, and anyway, perversion was certainly abundant on the internet during "the early days"

I'm a little confused here, you don't want life to work out? I think I get the gist of what you're saying though, and I'm just sayin you're fooling yourself by assigning blame for all your problems (or whatever you're upset about) on those unbearable "socially active" people.

summary: why you so upset just cause some fool uploaded a pic of himself drunk somewhere on the internet

I'm a cog in the large ad-hoc machinery painting the undisputable changes the internet goes through in a negative light and I enjoy every second of that existence.

Not my problem with them. It's just that a certain subset of the Sonic fankids is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of large groups of stupid people in ROM hacking communities that can be grouped by a common trait.

You're jumping to conclusions there. What I am saying is that life is just much more interesting when things blow up.

Because all his friends then get AOL to get online and see that picture or contribute one of themselves.

And then, what happens to your own personal internet?

this is actually what I wanted to ask you
how do these people uploading photos of themselves impact you in any way
and why shouldn't they be allowed to

I mean, I gather that you're not completely serious about being upset by this stuff but it sounds like you're genuinely contemptuous of social activity and this is frankly concerning

It's just as natural as being upset over the social interaction of a bunch of high school dropouts having an alcohol-intensive party outside your house with some of them vomiting into your window or passing out on your front porch every now and then.

Yes, but there's no difference between "[the street] outside my house" and "the internet", on which the "house" - be it mine or somebody else's, since it would be perfectly natural to share the same discontent with the social interaction if it happens in proximity while you are visiting somebody else - could be equalled to whatever community - forum, IRC channel or whatever - I frequent, in that respect.

The problem is that, in real life, distance shields me from the bulk of those people, while on the internet, even the furthest are not more than a 400ms walk away.
