>>4434431how old are you
>>443553932
>>4436474NTA You’re still a wee baby compared to me
>>4439383Not to be rude, but how does one end up like this? Being 35+, posting anime girls on 4chan. Is this just a habit that (You) picked up back in, let's say, 2005 and it stucks with you ever since? Do (You) have a normie-tier life in the meantime, or are (You) a wizard?
>>4439412An I supposed to quit my hobbies just because I pass an age?
>>4434408I love my lovely Mai!
>>4439447Well, some hobbies seem to be thing you do as a 20+ lonely man, but are forced to abandon for "not having time for this". Kind of like guys who played vidya back in 90s seldom do now.
>>4436474>>4439383i'm the anon who asked the 32 year old guy how old he is, i feel so young compared to you guys it's sad. i feel like i missed all the good times because i was born too late.
>>4440529It’s a bit of a double-edged sword, anon. I’m 29 now, but I’ve been on 4chan since I was like 11 or 12 back in 2008–09. The internet culture I grew up with is basically gone, and most of the people from back then either drifted off to tiny imageboards that get maybe four posts on a good day, or just disappeared entirely. A lot of us were using the internet to cope because we didn’t really fit in IRL. Sure, you always had the black nerdy guys trolling on /sp/ having a blast, but they were definitely the minority.The funny thing is, even I felt like I missed out. I thought I was late to the party and had missed the legendary 2003–2007 era. Looking back, though, I think I still caught 4chan at its best, even if I wasn’t around for some of the classic 2006 chaos. I watched /r9k/ morph into a monster, vanish, and then get resurrected for the detriment of humanity.Honestly, the best thing you can do these days is find a woman before AI turns the whole internet into a ghost town. If it weren’t for the internet, I’d probably be alone without kids, my wife’s from a remote country in Asia, and I never would’ve met her otherwise without the internet. The best time to do something is always yesterday but the 2nd best time is now.
>>4440696what do you think changed the most about the internet? every time i look at old archives it feels like everything just got worse. people seemed more united back then since they were all escaping reality like you said, but i can’t really say much since i didn’t experience that era myself.sometimes i wish i was born in 90s japan and got to live through 2000s otaku culture. posting on 2ch and watching random niconico videos, watching endless CGDCT anime and reading touhou doujins. i mean, i can still do most of that now (except 2ch), but the community just isn't same at all.even though loneliness hits me, i honestly don’t think i want a wife or a family. if i had a wife i’d probably treat her more like a really close friend. i have zero relationship experience, so it’s confusing. i need to think more about this serious life stuff.for now i guess i can survive in a world with only anonymous and other internet friends, but i don’t know. it sounds kinda pathetic. but i’ve already accepted being pathetic. if i hadn’t, i wouldn’t be rotting at home all day during my free time.
>>4441262Not who youre replying to but the internet died when every idiot with a smart phone could access it. Back when I was young and posting here (2004 - 2009) it was a lot slower but the community was much more real. Being on MySpace was still considered new and trendy. Being on 4chan was basically unheard of. That cultivated a real sense of belonging that doesn't exist anymore.I think thats one of the biggest problems for most people now, regardless of who or what they are. No one feels like they belong anywhere. Everyone is seeking their place and many aren't finding anything because the world right now is in general turmoilBut seriously don't get too excited. Even back then everyone here still felt like a loser and the memes were not even that funny half the time
