The Cure for Loneliness

[The Newswire]

Sometimes the internet can be very isolating. We sit at home and, in a way, we feel connected to so many people. But not very connected. It is overwhelming and difficult to deeply connect with anyone. Sometimes this causes us to to put in-person human interaction up on a pedestal and forget what it is really like.

I'm a loner (sociable, know plenty of people) but a loner no less. Thus, it is kind of a neutral device in that regard.

I can see the Scientology Celebrity Center (and the Hollywood sign) from my roof. As I have utterly failed to develop a problem with drugs or booze, it is just a matter of time in Los Angeles before I become a Scientologist.

the internet is.....

seriously, some people on the net just need to leave the room once in a while and go to a bar or just do something else. try to integrate into the real world a little.

theres one or two people i know that thier internet ego is bullish, insensative, a proper keyboard commando. But having met them outside the net thier quite the oposite, withdrawn and very quiet.

as to the German kid... i really cannot see the point in this kid lampooning himself. he's going to regret it in later life.

Damn there really needs to be a cure for loneliness...That german kid was hilarious i couldnt stop laughing lol
