Why do you come to /r9k/? What brings you back here? >only

I have no interest in my old hobbies anymore

lurking and shitposting requires little effort and its mildly entertaining. I have nothing else to do (apart from uni shit, kek)

I WANT TO FUCKING LEAVE REEEEE

I quit for a few months but here I am again, kill me

>good for laughs laughing makes me forget
>nice to know there are people in similar situations as me
feels better man

>>34825788
i gotchu senpai, same here
nice numbers btw

I can talk to people about depression and suicide without getting the, "it'll get better" or "just find a new hobby, bro," routine. It's just an otherwise normal conversation about how much we hate ourselves/lives.

/r9k/ is just a less shit version of /b/. I can't stand nu-/b/ at all

>>34825675
Used to vent to like-minded people.

That changed years ago. The board isn't what I remember. I keep coming back out of habit.

>>34826193
same here, I practically grew up on /b/.
It took me a couple months break from 4chan to come back to it and realise how shitty it had become

>implying /b/ was any good anway

>>34825675
Feels give me catharsis, threads on /b/ are mostly shit
I also like being overly positive and friendly towards people here

>>34826248
it was a shitty board.
but it was our shitty board ;_;7

>>34826285

God, that actually made me sad

>>34825675
Honostly making trap threads and chatting to traps >>34826285

My mind just does not stop at night and I am bored without being able (or willing) to focus on anything. 9fag gets boring, hugefag depressing, but r9k keeps surprising me. Also I can post in total anonymity which is a great experience.
Also comfy threads.

I come back here for the greentexts and the fact that robots are the most genuine people on this entire website. Even though I'm ridiculed for having a gf/employment I still really enjoy talking to some anons.

It's the only somewhat large community where there is a plurality, or atleast dominant minority, of people similar to myself.

As a 26 year old virgin with no motivation or interests struggling with constant fear and sadness, many posts here strike a common cord with experiences and feelings I could never realistically share in the outside world without being, either subtly or directly, shunned, pitied, or dismissed.

What are other people going to say when I tell them about how I feel like my life is purposeless and that I've failed in almost every pursuit and basic measure of human success? What will they do when I want to vent about how alienated I feel from society and that I've never experienced intimacy with anyone and likely never will? Generally they're uncomfortable, and understandably so. Here, it isn't given a second thought.

Though I'm sure many of us are wildly different people, we share a bond in a suffering that is unacceptable to present in the real world, and that makes it a far more genuine connection than many others in my life, as disappointing as that fact is.

this describes me to a T right down to the age part

You sound like the kind of guy that actually stopped watching porn now that he has a gf/ searched for gonewild or real gf porn because it just hurts seeing the actresses fake it and you are looking for the real thing
if you are anything like me

>>34826534

Not really anon, I mean I still watch porn, just obviously not as frequently as before I got a gf. I don't really have a preference beyond amature, I've never really liked try-hard professional porn

>>34825675
>be me
>be fat fuck. 5'9", 280lbs. Type 2 diabetes, erectile dysfunction, ugly as fuck
>load up instagram after gorging at Chinese buffet
>see vid that a friend (female) posted. It's her husband dancing at a wedding reception with their 7 year old daughter
>realize that will never, ever be me and bawl like a fucking baby in my car for 10 minutes

Is there anything you can do after that BESIDES load up r9k?

Depressed lonely virgin and this is the only place where I can let it all out and talk to people.

>>34826743
It is never too late to change anon
Lose some weight, you will feel better when you see progress
I know it all feels like it's pointless now but it was pointless from the very begining.

Chatting with the people here makes me feel somewhat better

>>34827816
I read that as 'cringing', still works I guess

>>34825675

To note how you get some things right: People needing emotional connections. Fucked once you get passed a certain point for certain things etc

And what you get wrong: Sex is the ultimate heroin into the eyeball level of fun. I don't have more than one friend right now my life is over t. 19 year old.

I find the meme posts funny and worth it. I like this mentally insane 'community', I can relate a lot to relationship posts (example the ones about people in relationships)
