i left 4chan for about a month because it was eating up too much of my immersion time and i was getting sick of all your guys' shit. i've been using 4chan as the primary source of my social dopamine hits for ten years now but i figured maybe i could try turning myself into a normalfag, be a bit more extroverted at work and in public and maybe make a couple actual friends. which isn't hard, i'm a good looking guy and not outwardly autistic. i can have boring meaningless small talk with just about anyone so why not try bumping it up a notch. turns out, unsurprisingly, that your average 22-30 year old is actually borderline retarded. i don't think of myself as having a superiority complex but how do these literally manchildren even make it day to day in adult life? women are even worse. i haven't had a girl since high school so i thought maybe that might be nice but they're just so fucking stupid and airheaded. on top of all that it's nearly impossible to find someone that has similar hobbies and even if they do, they almost certainly don't have the same passion for them that you do. makes it so awkward that it's better to just keep it to yourself. oh she likes anime, cool that'd be a good conversation starter. oh, she's only seen shingeki no kyojin and kimetsu no yaiba and thinks they're absolute masterclasses in storytelling and character building, maybe i'll just change the subject. none of it seems worth the effort. sometimes i hate you guys but turns out you're the only company worth being around, even at your worst.
