I've been posting on online forums for like 10 years. I was a wee kid when I was exposed to the internet for the first time a lot earlier. That's maybe 15 or so years on the internet, I practically grew up here and a lot of my childhood memories, like everything over 5-6 years old me, are somehow related to internet stuff, online games, internet communities. Not many people know, even good friends, that I used to have a quite popular Youtube channel in the early days, well popular by those standards then. If I'd bother I could probably find old videos of mine. I also had a deviantArt account with lots of stuff, I was in the game for as long as I remember. I often find it hard to express myself in real life, sometimes I can only communicate certain things in internet slang and concepts. I'm busy creating an ideal and living in a virtual world that I often face disappointments in real life, and so I turn my attention to the internet more and more. Lately I've noticed that many of my interractions with real life friends have been through the internet, as in skype calls and chats. I've also developed sort of an internet personality. I'm not an internet personality but I act in real life like I would on the internet. I'm fairly sure my werd guy/girl personality switch has been in part triggered by the Internet, and depression too.
I wanted to rant a little today.
