I can't find pleasure in the huge steaming pile that is this thread either, OP I'm just kidding, I agree with your analysis. Existence in this hyperreal society is still as agonizing as it ever was, just in a different way to our ancestors.

I am close to agreeing unironically but then I remind myself that that's the little-death

Elentor posted:Eh, I'm not ashamed of who I am or what I like. I don't have as much interest in trying new things as much as I did before, and I know that's probably gonna get bigger with time. I'd rather not burn myself forcing myself to do things I don't want or care. Everyone has that tendency, it has nothing to do with any generation in particular. I have that tendency more than the average person, and if I let it completely control me, my life would be even more of an endlessly grey and boring existential slog than it is now. Besides that, I don't want to become one of those people (more than I already am) who avoid things that are efficient and/or that they might enjoy just because they're unfamiliar with it. I am curious, at the very least as just an observer, to see what else humans can come up with as a society.

Chess? Never heard of it, must be an indie game. Can I play it co-op, and what are the graphics like?

My children will inherit my Steam account, but unfortunately for them it will be 90% lowbrow virtual holoporn games, which I am sure will start getting released any day now
