I'm only a stranger until you read my manifesto on the Oxford comma

Going on the internet used to be fun, in the before times.

I prefer the term “distressed eccentric friend you’ll never meet” 🥲

Anyways, how about those sports teams/political parties/abortion rights?

Hey! I'm not mentally ill. I've even got proof. They gave me a certificate when they let me out of the hospital.

I remember in the early 2000s when I got Internet at home, one of my relatives kept telling me about forums and how great they were. And my thought was "Why would would I want to know what the average dumb fuck thinks about things?" I might have forgotten this wisdom.

15 minutes later: OK now I feel frustrated about the world instead of about work, time to take a real break.

I'd rather relax reading hundreds of pages on a few different topics from one unusually entertaining or informative stranger, more often than not dead for decades at least.

Literally every single day for me. I am lucky enough to have been blessed a job that is both easy and boring (literally just scan documents all day), which gives me plenty of downtime to find some people on the internet to stress me out since my job doesn't. (Only took 20 years to find such a job.) Hell, I'm doing it right now!

You can tell it’s Twitter because they’re no acknowledgment of talking to bots.

Luckily it's hard for me to hold a phone and put a gun in my mouth at the same time.

I... I may need to frame this and hang it over my monitor.

Control, control! You must learn control!

Do. Or do not.

There is no 'try'.

Satisfaction.

I'll admit: I've started trolling the absurdly stupid commentary. I'm smart enough to engage in good faith quality discussuon, but bored with it now..

2010 me hates this, 2026 me laughs in hypocrisy. I'm literally trolling my past self
