all the goldmines, the empty quotes, the photoshops, the memes...none of it is real. it's all nothing. it's just a few bits on a server farm somewhere. how many hours have we collectively spent on these very forums that could have been spent in the real world doing real things? years from now, will you think back regretfully about the posts you should have made? i doubt it.

just something to keep in mind during your friday night posting sesh.

being unemployed is really doing a number on my self-esteem / mental health

posting helps to whittle away the time a little bit, and constitutes a distraction
