I don't know what to do with that information.

I used to care about people's comment history but found it was taking up too much time. Treat each comment as it's own thought, ignore the usernames, sites like this are much more fun when you look for ideas you like instead of avoiding user names that you don't like.

Besides, people can read comments from years ago, but you're not the same person as you were then, so why hold that against them now (unless they killed or raped someone or are pedos, then have at em).

Haha it is a funny name, funnier still is that you expand your anus but call me a faggot.

I expand the anii of others. Are you looking for some excitement?

Nah. I stay hopeful that one day I can go full-super-saiyan and be respected for it. If I make it past the stage of "societal-collapse," I might just get my wish.

Ok, let me check how much I care and get back to you.

Not the point. If you have nothing to contribute: it's because you have nothing to do with said conversation. Move along, nothing to see here.

Some of the responses to this thread show how shallow some people are.

I'm beginning to hate this site.

It doesn't reflect people in RL.

Either your inward idea of your self is false, or you live a lie inside a shell. Become one with your mind, body, and soul.

you live a lie inside a shell

It's hard to do when you could literally lose your whole life's work by presenting yourself, as-is, to the wrong person. Actually, I kinda lied-by-omission in that title: my wife knows me as well as I do myself, but that's it. Every time I become one with my mind, body and soul: the demons come out and start trying to derail me. Not gonna lie: they're pretty good at what they do.

Maybe a touch of stoicism will help? Still I use sites like this to vent and I am sure many do. Too much hassle to deal with all the random shitters around.

I always attempted to start reading "Meditations," but would eventually get side-tracked reading/doing something else. It's kinda funny, actually: said diary would motivate me enough to go and do some shit, so I'd forget to finish reading the whole thing before even getting half-way, lol. Should probably go ahead and finish it one of these days.

Great list, thank you. I'll go through it all eventually.
