lol... ya know what I love, about u Jnev... u gotta good knack for cutting through bullshit and through sarcasm hiting on some kinda truth that maybe escapes the first take,
that said, I'm surprised no one really flames me here for my takes or voice... but the thing is, the thing that gets me is that we all say its only the internet, say whatever, but the thing is its a medium of communication that we spend 20 to 40% of time and as time moves forward, and this happens underneath our awareness, cause we take everything for granted, however things are always changing behind our awareness, or lack there of, anyway our identity becomes more attached to online communication... my point is what was unacceptable 3 to 4 years ago like posting pics and having identity known through this medium is now more acceptable, our identity is becoming more attached to online communication as it becomes more enmeshed in culture... so when we say dont take it seriously, I agree realize it is only a medium of communication, however, I hate when peeps trivialize it, like it doesn't matter, to me this is bullshit, because just like a phone, speaker spouting blue light specials in walmart, whisper in your left ear, its a medium to communicate thought patterns... so people hypocritically say don't take shit seriously, however, when someone gets flamed... I notice that person appears to take it pretty seriously, atleast they react as if they were hurt by the disparaging commment or whatever, to me, this is only a natural phenomenon, as living in IRL is a pretty tense thing... lots of conflict, misunderstanding, and even flat out of hat inflecting our psyches... so to not have it reflect itself into our thoughts here would be impossible...
either way I dig it here.
