Bay12?

[Gunner-Chan]

Yeah.

To be really, really blunt. I almost feel like I don't get much out of here anymore if I'm sober. Which I have to be now given I'm job hunting.

[Parsely]

I dunno. I'm always sober (okay maybe not, but I'm unable to use keyboards if I'm messed up) and I still have fun around here. Biggest reason is to write things.

[Yoink]

When I'm un-sober is pretty much the only time I'm able to have fun in the dreaded meatspace, so you generally don't see too much of me here. Gotta make the most of that after all.
As for "out-growing" Bay12, well, at times I feel as though I don't get on too well with a lot of people, but the good outweighs the bad in any case. There aren't too many forums like Bay12 around, that's for sure.

Today is probably the single worst day of my life so far.
I can't even think of where to begin.
I can barely even see anymore.

Even my wife hates me, now. She's joined everyone else, in saying that all I ever do is complain, and says that I just try to make everything about myself. She claims that it's my fault for not working on getting my back taken care of earlier. She won't even look at me.
My twitching has hit an all-time high now. I involuntarily struck myself in the head maybe 5 or 6 times, I don't really remember that well. I think I may have a slight concussion because since then my vision keeps getting blurry, and I nearly fainted a couple times.
The entire day, I had to help my Mother-in-Law move to a new place, which consisted of almost the entire day of hauling around extremely heavy objects, which didn't help my head in the slightest.
I can't even remember half of the stuff that happened today.

I don't know what to do anymore. My head is pounding so hard I can't even think. I can barely even write this. I don't even feel like living anymore.

I don't know if you'll end up seeing this or not, but get to the nearest hospital immediately. Forget everything else, and worry about paying later.

Goddamn Mastahcheese.
Your wife said that? That is really horrible, I hate that people are treating you that way.
I don't have time to write more just now but I needed to give you some sympathy.

Looking at this place again today, I feel like I've started to really outgrow it.

If you want to go then you want to go.
There's no need to stay. I mean, people outgrow other people all the time. Socializing and friendship is a pretty dumb concept seeing that sooner or later we will forget each other.

[Tiruin]

...
That's a heartless thing to say.

[hops]

Oh, look, come on. I'd be amazed if I'm still here by the time I'm 20. I'll probably forget all of you by the time I get a job. It's nothing personal. It's just that when it's people on the internet, people don't tend to give a fuck. I mean, I used to, but I don't any more.

[Tiruin]

...You generalize your viewpoint as a fact, then?
>_> Dear goodness.

It's just that when it's people on the internet, people don't tend to give a fuck. I mean, I used to, but I don't any more.

So you assume it applies with everyone?
'Ooo, internet! People don't give a fuck here!'
Correction: We do.
I mean, unless you don't value people then it'd be easy to forget them--would be an example of the generalization given.

[hops]

Doesn't change the fact that Janet is moving on from here. If you want to keep talking to her or whatever you can ask for contacts but asking her to stay when she clearly doesn't want to is not how to go about it.

See the thing is when you become one of the older members your friends start to go away whether it be because they got a job or because they got hit by a car or whatever, and while the new members come up to join the rank you just can't get yourself to like them. To you they are boring smartasses who would soon take your good memories of this place and tear it down.

And that is when you leave.

[Tiruin]

...I never said anything like asking her to stay against her will :v

Also, that 'thing'...doesn't really apply as a generality at all. It doesn't explain quite anything.

But it does state an observation. Something which is quite seemingly true, but mostly on the superficial level. Have you gotten to truly know those people, or just see the schism which they operate in?
Times are changing, yeah--values which people act upon somehow change too that's a sad thing, but there are still people who aren't in that category you state here (or in the least, your viewpoint is narrowed that it misses out the totality of the people present.)

Though on what you said? I'd still remain and say its heartless if you apply it as a label to everyone on the internet. It's not like we're mirrors of ourselves in reality. On forgetting people: Pretty much if they're not valued by the person forgetting them, or they aren't impacts to your life.
But it'd be a sad day for me if I see everyone just forgetting each other left and right. 'It's not like people matter'.
