Sex: Porn has killed it. Although Im a pretty rational and reasonable guy, sometimes I feel like I wanna be doing the wild stuff I see in them xvideos movies lol

Women: Made me not even get excited about "bad" broads or ones that we post up in that picture thread in JBO. Like I'm so sick of "regular" women doing the most for likes on social media. I'd lose my mind over them a couple years ago, maybe its maturity, maybe its this site, but now, I hardly go for that anymore. I honestly look at women different, even the ones I see on my everyday moves. I appreciate women who are completely natural and comfortable in their own hair, nails, teeth, etc. Plus I love a women who DOESN'T do the most with wild lipstick and crazy fads. Just a simple woman that's it. I feel like the internet has made all those types a rarity...

My sense of emotion: I've seen some WILD stuff on JBO and throughout the innanets...Heads chopped off, kids being killed or dead babies, blood and gore. I can see this stuff now, and eat a hamburger while I do it. No more sense of "well this is too much for me" now I look at stuff they say is "graphic" and ask myself, "Is this it? That wasn't that bad" and whatnot... :yeshrug:

edit: I forgot race...Internet has warped my views on racism. Seeing articles on here that get covered up elsewhere or not reported. Has definitely changed me for the better, as I honestly look for ways to make our communities better. I read up on (our) history more and care more about my community than I once did...again, could be maturity too

Dealing with people on an interpersonal level. I used to have twitter and facebook till I realized that it was doing the opposite what the purpose it was made for.

TO BE MORE SOCIAL.

For instance, looking at a person's tweets before actually meeting them. If the tweets were that bad I would completely dismiss them because people judge off tweets whether they admit
it or not.

It came to a point where I didnt even want to deal with certain people because I could forsee the problems associated with them before I even talk to them thoroughly.

However, I deleted those social networks awhile back and my life got progressively better.

And like everyone else, porn.

It gives you a sense of accomplishment but exclusively that a SENSE no actual accomplishment.

It's weird, I've been on the internet since like 94 so in some ways it's always been there......

but it's prevalence these days has really ruined music for me in some ways. I think just purchasing music gave you a greater appreciation. If you were spending money on something you wouldn't just play it once or twice and throw it in the bushes.....Music used to have a longer shelf life.



Unlike everyone else, social media and the internet didn't ruin dating and women for me. What ruined dating/women for me was being growing up the stereotypical "nice" guy being raised by single mother (seeing my mistakes), going to college and seeing the fukkery and then working as a DJ.
