Yeah, I remember how edgy it used to be. I don't know what happened. If all those guys just got banned, or if they lost their way or what. It's kind of a mystery. My guess is that they all got shitty jobs and copped out. Now they're probably all worried about how well they treat their customers. Jesus fuck.
You should do one of those before/after things. Like what was your favorite stuff, fears, job, etc back then vs now.
I have been here 12 years....or 10 or something People often say stuff like that, oh it was so different back when I havent notice any difference in 10 years at least, if anything there were more twats late 2000s compared to now I think its more a case of when people are younger and more hopeful they think they had more friends here
I never thought I had any friends here. I'm always striving for a friendship. But no. Maybe all these other guys were just flashes in the pan. I don't know. I just remember people fondly...who disappear. I don't know how long I've been here, honestly. That's the funny thing. I have no clue. But I've been around a while.
If you don't know where you're going you are already there. Maybe you already won an award and just don't know it.
It kinda sucks when people you've befriended move on from this place. Shout out to PR and everyone else in this thread for sticking it out
This is very much an achievement.. I can't even remember my first handle on this site. But it was just the beginning of this site back then, and 2002-2008 was the best years..
Twenty years ago, I was still a skeptic studying the Tao Te Ching and linguistic analysis. After a lifetime of research, the Tao Te Ching was the one text I had come across that I could not figure out and that came closest to my own way of thinking. It was obvious to me that it required at least one more poem towards the beginning, that could shed an enormous amount of light on the text. Eventually I figured it out, but the minute I did mother nature decided I was about to get in over my head and she would have to intervene. Be careful what you ask for, because I was way too optimistic about how easy it would be to make more sense out of the text.
