Being on Jow Forums is worse for you than watching porn or fapping, so why are you still here?
>Mostly negativity all the time >Shit advice >No gf autism threads >Women hate threads >Body dysmorphia, you will get called DYEL until you are close to roiding level fit >Making you aware of every tiny little flaw in your face, fueling insecurity, looksmaxing bullshit >Encourages you to do stupid memey shit that will disconnect you from normal people even more >Those quick fix dopamine rushes from getting a (you), wow somebody awknowledged my opinion! >Tells you constantly that you have no chance with women if youre not at least a 9/10
This place has become a shithole. Theres barely a trace left from the encouraging "were all gonna make it"-culture that Jow Forums once had.
Want to really improve your life? Leave forever. This place is a negative stain on your life and you know it
Jow Forums is what we make it. This board has done a LOT for me, in a relatively short time. Yes, newfag. I intend to stick around and try to give back and be an informative, motivational influence.
>letting some Tibetan basket weaving image board govern your life THIS much
wew, lad
Joshua Sanders
All of that stuff is reality, though. Why go somewhere else where they pretend it doesn't exist?
Colton Bell
Wow OP stop being a big gay faggot. If you have been here for any amount of time, you should see that we have these threads all the fucking time and they do nothing. Why don't you fucking leave instead of telling us how bad it is?
Angel Stewart
Unfortunately the hardest pill to swallow is also the most beneficial pill.
Don't leave though. Together we can make Jow Forums great again

>Being on Jow Forums is worse for you than watching porn or fapping, so why are you still here? Because I like to do all three, at the same time.
Wyatt Gray
hey, op, you seem pretty cool maybe we ain't all gonna make it, but I think you will hopefully others will at least take heed and not let this board get to them

Jow Forums are the bros I don't have at the gym.
Isaiah Wright
My nigga
Jayden Young
amongst other things, this. there are only retards at my gym, here there are at least some exceptions amongst the retards
Jacob Stewart
As homegym master race I just assume that the threads on fit is what everybody talks about and shouts across the room in the local gym.
Gavin Perry
This man is 1000% correct and all of you are deluded if you think that the reality you try to portray on fit is anything close to realistic. Truthfully it is a projection of (you)r crippling insecurities/depression. I agree with OP, leave Jow Forums while you can the autistic jaded INTJs and depressedbois ruined it for all of us
Hunter Bennett
not really, any reasonable gym is mostly just background music and grunting
Liam Brown
bro, this is my baseline ever since I discovered r9k 4 years ago. I wasn't exactly doing great, but now I'm fucked beyond repair, so Jow Forums doesn't really affect me that much. I still come here because it's the only place that makes me truly laugh out loud and I even get some interesting insights from time to time.
Colton Ward
I think in theory a lot of these threads could potentially be good to inform, confirm, and motivate Jow Forumsizens.
The negative bullshit is what truly makes it toxic. The separation between roiders/natties. You are either one or the other, and therefore must oppose and bash the other for not being on your side kinda logic is elementry. Advice whether it's good or bad is still advice. Better to have shit advice then no advice at all. Better to have a shit plan of action then no plan at all.
Instead the usually internet toxic bashing and negative. "Your opinion/pic/comment is shit" yet these same folks have no real advice to replace the so called "shit".
>He doesn't realize that the culture of Jow Forums is a strange, but captivating form of self-deprecating, ironic humor. >He is socially imperceptive enough that he can't read between the subtle layers of irony and choose for himself how much trust, interest, or emotional investment he puts in any particular post. >He doen't realize this his own post comes not from his own mind, but was intentionally manufactured by anons and that he is merely a surrogate for its manifestation in this instance. The well-known "sincere Jow Forums is bad for you post" trope that manifests when someone reflects on their personal experience with the website and decides that it is not their own inability to decipher the humor, but that the content is actually sincere. Of course, the content isn't sincere. In fact, it was presented to the poster in such a way to cause them to eventually make this very thread as just another perturbation and elaboration of the culture.
There's tons of misinformation that's passed around as fact as well, doesn't help one bit. I don't take any advice from anybody here, I come here just for the laughs anymore.
I come here for the (near non existent) discussion of fitness, fun threads and the bantz but those are starting to lose their luster as everything is just a recycle of shitposting, prompting me to leave for a few months until whatever becomes regurgitated by that time is fresh to me. The negativity just slides off of me because it's readily apparent that it's just retards pretending to be retards fooling other retards into being actual retards.
