Have you ever encountered these people on social media? They're always posting old pictures on Instagram and FB and tagging their long lost buddies and gals in them. Then they'll have conversations reiterating situations about the events and people in the picture. "Remember when... ?" "Is that so-and-so in the flick?" "Remember that time..." "Is that the guy who... ?"
I have noticed the people who usually do this sort of thing are those who were involved in subcultures, usually irritating ones, such as the graffiti scene or hardcore and punk rock or some other nuisance "movement" consisting of people who have a problem with everything and everyone in this world and wanted to remain young and careless forever. Sometimes it's also done by people who were especially good looking or popular in their younger days, but upon entering the real world met stiff competition and blended in to the rest of the adult working world.
It's not what they are doing is harmful. It just strikes me as odd, considering I am actually having a better time in life at my age than when I was younger and I believe it will get even better (though my life is not perfect or problem free, like everyone else).
Is it that they can't get over more carefree moments in their life or that they can't just seem to get over the fact that the gig ended? Or that they don't want to face growing up? I don't think it's bad to reminisce with old friends, but done to excess, it seems like one can't let go.
And shouldn't some things just be left to pass or (gasp) DIE? Like, onto the next phase or next thing?
I know we all get trollish here, but I think there are some down-to-earth people here, realistic and hard headed "red pillers" so to speak that might relate considering it seems most here are in their 30's or older.

Throwback Thursdays are ok, man...just chill.

Stopped reading after......actually I never even started. Too fucking long. Cliff notes next time bro.

This. Deleted FB in 2009, was only trouble and never used it anyway. Never joined any other social media.
I can imagine if life is shit you would remenisce about the past - bills, cleaning, driving, worrying about money... it isn't fun but it is life and it was absent for most people in school.
Life is what it is. I am 31 but look way better than when I was 21. I had optimism about life ahead of me when I was 21 which was crushed and destroyed but I overcame that and am stronger for it. Life isn't perfect for most of us. Dreams get crushed, you find out you don't always get paid what your talents deserve (if you get paid at all given the virus of internships) and you deal with heart break of relationships failing cos you age differently.
That's life... when you get past that you can grow again as a person.

For some people their teenaged years were the best days of their life. It was all downhill from there
Sometimes people go down reminisce boulevard but truthfully many of us are still having fun and enjoying life even though we are at new stages of our lives

Sorry about that.
Is that even really that long of a post?

Good post.
That said, half the posts here are "bbing in the 70s/80s/90s" was good....
But it was.

Just curios, what is the meaning behind your screen name? Also gave you seen the pic of Shizzo's sister's tits? They are impressive.

Remember the good old days when phaggots like the original OP had better things to do than create pathetic threads whining in their high pitched beta squeaks about social media problems. #TBT

I know roughly your age,.......there is absolutely no way you should be saying "bro"

you make way too many gay sex references. I mean 90% of your posts are about it.

Was that really Shizzo's sister? Pic was up and then gone, and nobody seems to have seen it.

And you make way too many references to wanting to fight people. What makes the difference. I am not gay and you aren't going to fight anyone. So blow me. Oops there I go again.
-
just your interpretation on their life, not sure why you hold such emotion to it

:Im not going to fight anyone? Care to place a huge wager on that?

You should start a thread with a current "hit list".
Perhaps this has been done already.

Other way around for me. Teen years sucked so bad that God had to step in to stop me from pulling a Columbine. He gave me a pile of money, a Ford Mustang, and the perfect apartment. I visited a Shaker settlement in upstate New York this weekend, and I just found a hole-in-the-wall restaurant where I had the best meal I've had in quite a while.

I thought junior turned you down? If the October 2016 fight happens can I referee it?

I had great schooldays. Good friends, good laughs at school, good nights out. But it was in the bubble of teenage life when we (not everyone i was lucky) had mostly no responsibilities. Longing for that life when you have to make money, deal with broken relationships etc is infantilism.

was talking to the op.
i can relate to your post in a big way.

I'll be there. If he doesnt show nothing I can do.
If he doesnt show I may hop in the ring with some random Diesel Gym mma person and get my ass kicked by them on video for getbig entertainment.
Octobers wont take place in a situation that needs a referee cause he would never agree to fight me.
People roll their eyes at this, but once I start putting up videos from these locations minds will change.
Im obsessed on following through with this
It will be my legacy

I get you.
Am i only one who keeps having dreams with people i went to school with? Last night's dream involved a threesome with gf's friend (my retelling of course involved the other girl watching). No idea why as i have no contact with school friends unless blind drunk around christmas.

Im off to bed but fucking with wiggs and his single digit iq is far more fun than someone who can take a joke. Plus, ive been fat as i said. 27%. Lost 4 stone in 3 months as a response.

Gas was about a dollar a gallon and I only had to pay for my insurance since I paid cash for my car by mowing lawns and doing side jobs.

Who dosent fondly remember those years when all you cared about was hanging out and going to pubs and clubs with your mates, chasing whores, having all your time to yourself, actually being able to devote plenty time to your hobbies, not worrying about kids, mortgages, work (work then was just a means of getting money to go on the piss that weekend).
good times
