When a person curses, it's a direct indication that they are thinking on a lower, more reactive, more emotional level.


The site owner has another site with some pretty good linux/bash tutorials. Props where it's deserved.

Generally I don't like this kinda faux-intellectual and antagonistic writing. Reading this makes me pull out technical jargon or fancy words from my vocabulary like weeds. They use the term coomer which I haven't seen in years. They mentioned an undergrad in econ somewhere, maybe that's what give the boon of confidence?

Anyone else think they may have become sorta like this if things were different? I think that may have happened to me if I was less caring of others... and more hateful of others instead of hateful of myself (still working on that!)


Something interesting is the casual usage of psychology as an explanation, usually where the reason why someone or some people do a thing is because of a keen insight of the writer, where, what people self-report is untrue and what is inferred is true.

They also talk about conspiracy a ton for some reason.

The kinds of thinking really go all around, it really confuses me as how said folk manage to create a coherent understanding. The easy answer is maybe they don't, and I might be inclined to agree, I'd like to try and have a dialogue to see how their brains work.

    Reading this guy's insufferable blog and was reminded of a greentext I saw years ago and saved, it sums up so many of these dudes:

    Be highschooler

    Sit every day playing vidya and doing homework in suburban two story

    Never go out because no friends

    Never have interesting experiences

    Girl I like won't look at me because I'm a silent, boring, slender starchman with no personality

    People who do drugs and have sex are more personable and appealing

    Nurse hatred of peers

    Become trad christian larper

    Read hours of old, tired punditry from the 90s denouncing anything pleasurable

    Spend every other hour shitflinging online as a caricature of naive, unironic puritanism

    Know my views are ridiculous but I'm lashing out at people for not paying attention to me anyway

    Refuse to broaden my horizons or do anything that my beguile someone to have an interest in me

    Double down on trying to make an identity out of being a gelded, passionless clown

    Die a sad virgin convinced cultivating the kind of empty moral superiority that was a cartoonish mockery of real people to begin with

    Many such cases

      wow it is sorta accurate for quite a few folks I've engaged with.

      does "starchman" mean anti-cracker-aktion

      I never saw that word before, if it is I'm surprised at the self-awareness

        The person making the original greentext was probably making fun of these sorts of people, so it wasn't self-awareness.
