So, I need to make a final decision weather or not I want to change jobs.

The new job will pay me double my current salary once I prove myself, but will have loads more responsibility, as well as a boss from hell.

The current job pays crap, but it's steady, and most of the people are okay when they aren't being immature children, and it's not very stressful for me as long as I ignore all the drama that goes on.

I desperately want to know what's going on there.

They're a band. There could be plenty of reasons for a band to take a picture with someone.
Oh, I missed that.

Still doesn't make the picture any less weird, but that's just me.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Responsibility is not a bad thing - on the contrary! If you shy away from responsibility you'll forever stay a blue-collar worker (Well, the modern equivalent of a blue-collar worker. Potato, potato...)

Actually, I'm technically going from white collar to blue collar, since I have a desk job right now, but I'll be managing a factory.

I don't think factory manager counts as a blue collar job :P

I don't fully understand the rampant hatred against 4chan and other chans.

Sure, I guess they can be constituted as backwater cesspools at best, but the wizards over there have, at worst, questionable ethical values. They're pretty normal people that function as such, they just have the anonymity granted to 'show their true colors!'. But that's not for all of them, however.

Most people that go there just make rampant amounts of tongue-in-cheek statements about murder, robbery, and less savory crimes, as publicity for being a member of 'the worst site in the world' flatters them. Nonetheless, they only make such statements because they can. It's offensive, that's undeniable, but it's not serious.

I'm not condoling their behavior, I'm just showing what I think is behind it.

Then you get cities like Paris where you should basically just kill yourself already.

Or solids for that matter. Honestly, I was expecting that to turn into a Stalker-inspired fanfic.

I have not been sufficiently terrified recently. There is something wrong with this.

Scratch everything I just said, it's all gone to the circus now. Chans are filled with spaghettimancer heathen gun-toting neckbeards and there is nothing that can be done.

I don't think you can count being drugged as a case of spaghetti dropping. Even if the same behaviour would be under different circumstances.
