insert long sigh here

I think I might have uncovered the problem I experience with internet forums.
(probably already knew this a long time ago, but you know how revelations can be).

In damn near any topic, nearly any hobby, in almost any group, I will be in a 1% grouping some how.

I don't think I am special or better just for that. It just means, I am likely not one of you more so than the person standing next to you or me.

Given a month, or a year or longer on a forum, I will increasingly be more and more likely to not be all that much like the majority of the community.

Makes is difficult eventually.

Not part of the plan, and frankly I don't much care for feeling like I am alone even while in the middle of a large crowd of people.
And aside from me simply electing to never post (which defeats the point of joining a forum) or never posting anything even remotely connected to the truth, or my actual real opinion, I don't see things improving much.

Being an individual can be vastly over rated.

You keep telling yourself that.





Meanwhile, I assure you, I thought I had the same problem when I appeared here about 5 and a half years ago. Then I realized, to quote one of my favorite musicians...

B.G. wrote:The only difference we have between us -
I know that the problem is me


(how many percent of you listen to B.G. here... HUH? HUH????)





P.S. - another thing I realized, well, apparently I'm not as special as I'd like to be after all, I'm more than 1%. That is, my posts are actually more than 1% of this forum (1.11%, to be exact).

Woe is me of the majority! How will I ever get my e-wang erect now that I am no longer the undemocratically unelected un(der)dog? :roll:

Sadly, a lingering sense of loneliness is the problem with holding stupid opinions. :(

But it could be.

Why does chocolate milk get made with 1% milk?

And is that extra 1% in 2% milk really worth the difference? And how often do the measure it to make sure it isn't accidentally 1.5% or 3%?

:awesome: has always been one of my favorite emoticons, because it always makes me laugh...or at least smirk.

edit: sukunai is an idiot who thinks he's special? yes or no?
