 The Internet = Cynical?
Do you guys feel like the internet has made you a more cynical person?
I mean sometimes i find myself being constantly sarcastic or really kind of cynical about things in the back of my mind which pisses me off and i figured thats only really started after i came to BOM and KJ and so forth.
I dont know; i think the massive amounts of non-psychical interaction people have on forums can definately change them; im just trying to figure out how.

Well, I'd like to think that some of my physical beauty comes across in my posts and thus makes them more positive and beautiful. So no, in my case, it does not make me cynical
I think, rather, that it's you. Maybe you're just a horrible human being? Maybe you all are!
Btw, I'm j/k. The post is meant to be sarcastic.

Hmm ive had those thoughts before actually
I try not to say mean shit these days but i still find myself thinking it, like "Fucking hell we KNOW you were a wrestler, no one gives a fucking shit so how about you shut up and get over your self, prickhead"
translates verbally to
"Really? Wow..."
Yeah im mean ](*,)

I believe information and a broader worldview can help make people cynical.
If anything, it's accelerated the cynicism process.

Couldn't agree more.
However, I have been very cynical prior to the net and you don't even get to see much of my cynism on here. Don't believe me - ask Michael :razz:

I drip sarcasm now, and my cynical thought patterns know no bounds, but I'm getting better at getting it harnessed. It's not easy to do.

I have no idea what you're talking about.
I've never been a cynical/sarcastic person. EVER. And nothing, not the internet, not anything else....will change that.

baba is certainly no hippy. He's actually in charge of something and has a job, thus him being a hippy is ruled out. Baba can't be a communist. How many communists come from pakistan?
