Alternatively, describe your own non-standard styles of "friendship".

This passage originally was written in reverse, but I flipped it for your convenience.

is this your non-standard friendship system? what is to be gained from asking and answering questions about random, meaningless topics?

Did you even read the image?
>Friendship of the standard species doesn't seem very interesting to me. The only part of standard friendship in which I'm <em>consistently</em> interested is the conversation on random topics. However, since I'm also rather bad at starting and maintaining conversations, I was forced to come up with the following system.

yes, i did read the image. i am asking why this particular part of friendship would be appealing to a person. why would you care how a random person eats their eggs or whether they prefer the shape of africa or south america? is the purpose having the opportunity to share your own opinion or do you genuinely care about the other person's answer?

i might understand the purpose if these questions and answers explained anything meanngful about yourself, the other person or the world but they seem to be shallow questions that are more like time wasters than anything else.

The former--though exceptions do exist. Pic related.

Which would you choose--time-wasting questions, or having no companionship at all?
Remember also that, if you exchange enough questions, A LOT of time can be wasted. http://pastebin.com/uHfsWBeP

Anyway, I unfortunately must go to bed now, lest I be too sleepy for my wagecuck job in the morning. Feel free to give me more advice, roaches.

i don't know. it might be amusing at first but i think it would bore me if it were a long-term commitment. some of those questions in the pastebin are entertaining but in some ways, the tone reminds me of homework for school, where it's like questions are being asked for the sake of asking questions. i would probably prefer something other than those two options more like i alluded to before, where questions were being asked in an effort to improve my understanding of life. i'm probably not the right person to ask about this because i don't know how to make friends, don't have any and i would actually dislike a friendship where lulls in conversation were not tolerated.

>Remember also that, if you exchange enough questions, A LOT of time can be wasted.
i waste enough time here with mindless interaction and i waste enough time in general that this seems undesirable to me. good for you for finding a system that works for you though. how have you chosen the people that you have asked to engage in "friendship" with?

Mine's set on friends.
I always get too nervous to read any of the messages and I just leave it.
