I'm running out of places to talk to grown-ups using grown-up language. Every forum I used to be able to visit has filled up with shit-posting Trumplorable bigots, and a bunch of teenyboppers on Sup Forums just called me autistic for using the word "evince" in discussion, like not using elementary school level English is some kind of mental illness.

The growing stupidity is really starting to get me down. There must be intelligent people still out there, but there don't seem to be any fora left where we can find each other.

Any other oldfags getting really bummed at how Sup Forums has turned into the thing we used to pretend to be?

Tf are you talking about
Sup Forums most definitely was never sophisticated

Why don't you evince yourself right the fuck off of Sup Forums you autistic son of a whore.

Sup Forums was never good, but there was a time I could refresh the front page and always find two or three threads by excellent storytellers with a yarn to spin which was alternatively funny or amazing or shocking or educational or thought-provoking. Half the fun was trying to guess whether the story was true or complete bullshit.

Wow you are a serious faggot

Hello, cancer, my old friend...

I get it. I've been here too fucking long, and so have you. The old internet is dead, and people would rather have quick-fix garbage instead. You're not the only one who's tired.

Things fall apart, the centre cannot hold.

You seem like a pseudointellectual twat

Funny thing, all those people who like to throw the word pseudointellectual around never seem to be able to point their finger at an actual intellectual and describe the difference. A cynical man might think mouth-breathing anti-intellectual subnormals feel existentially threatened by anyone demonstrating a triple-digit IQ and feel a constant need shit on what frightens them.

This entire thread proves OP's point so perfectly that I can't tell if it's ironic. We're so many layers deep in shitposting and legitimate stupidity that I honestly can't tell the difference any more.

Poe is a bitch and the patron saint of our age.

B has turned into a normie porn dump a long time ago. I actually only really browse to catch Nickel once in a while, and for the random shit that'll show up and make me laugh occasionally. /b has turned into the mainstream edgy place where all the kids go to be edgy.

Intellectual: scientist, author, philosopher

Pseudointellectual: neckbeard using 25 cent words to seem smart on an anonymous web forum

Well then, by your metric I'm an actual intellectual; I'm a published author and well enough known and respected in my field to have a Wikipedia article about me. Shall I hold my breath waiting for your apology?

prove it

>using words that I think are too hard makes someone a pseudo-intellectual

Even if is complete bullshit, you're still a dumbass.

>growing stupidity
>making a summerfag post not during summer

No. See, I know how this works. Any time I share anything about my life in here, I get called a liar by a bunch of teenyboppers because I fall outside the tiny suburban bubble of their very white little world. If I out myself and prove I'm not lying, suddenly I'm a raging egomaniac trying to impress a bunch of kids and am therefore pathetic. You kids have a nice little echo chamber going where you've turned othering into an art form. A sad, stupid, ugly art form.

>words I think are too hard

When did I say that faggot? I said 25 cent words, meaning words that are rarely used in conversation and are more likely to show up on an SAT list.

It would have been easier to type "I'm lying" than that long-winded spiel.

>Sup Forums has turned into the thing

"Rarely seen in conversation" with whom? Your kid brother? Your mother? Your dumbass friends who think Facebook is the end-all-be-all of socialization? That's pretty vague and arbitrary. Let's personalize it a bit. You know who makes up part of my regular social group? People who use Linux. Know what else? "Evince" is also the name of a very common Linux program, so guess what word I get to see on a regular basis? (here's a hint: it's "evince" and tons of people know what that word means now because of that PDF viewer).

I If you see someone using your expensive words incorrectly, then by all means call them out for the faggot they are. But just using them? There is literally nothing wrong with that.

>only really browse to catch Nickel once in a while
When was the last time you seen that pedo on here?

>centre
Holy shit you're a faggot

That's how the word is spelled in the civilized world, you cultureless, uneducated Amerifat clod.

kys my man

"Trumplorable" Sup Forums was never liberal.
>>/out/

The world is like a dance hall Sup Forumsro, your moves can be graceful beside one orchestra, or clashing when performed with another.

These faggots changed pace in the middle of the song once, it went well, and now they can't stop changing what they're doing to save their lives.

You've finally felt the reality of this shithole, a space filled with people fabricating reality for themselves.

I was reading your same words the day i started here over 8 years ago and i decided right then, don't become one of the common. Don't be one of those that feels this is a worthwhile place to afix aspirations or crutches. Know that you will have to clean yourself of this place if you want to find lasting maturity.

I hope you find people around you or a place amongst people that will help you to grow as an adult.

OK then, pronounce it then spell it, then you tell me who's right

Did you learn that from a programme about your favourite colour?

no dude he's totally right. a few threads ago I convinced some pothead from AUS to meet me at a bar so I could sell him some weed. I live in the US. I used google maps to talk about what street I lived on and shit. afaik he actually went. there's still fun to be had here, you're just boring is all.

>Any other oldfags getting really bummed at how Sup Forums has turned into the thing we used to pretend to be?
Ironic eh?

>ywn see gold like this again

We used to doxx people like you and send them 200 pizzas, then SWAT them. You're the sociopathic scum Anonymous was created to go after. It wasn't until m00t scoured the Shire clean of anyone who wasn't a teenybopper or a fucking douchebag that people like you became ascendant.

teehee

an escape you wish?

I may have something, for a Sup Forumsro, it hurts to see this much hostility to someone

Try infinity

yeah, but stop posting now- the autists could find out

I'm just here to see what I'm leaving behind, ascend with me Sup Forumsrother, and leave this place
