Is the gratification of being a kiwi rooted in projected insecurities?

[Marco Fucko]

I joined because I've been pointing and laughing at internet weirdos since I was like 12 and this seemed like a cool place tbh. I'm employed as a freelancer, so I have as much time as I want after I make subsistence.

 

[Coconut Gun]

I'm here because I get to say nigger as much as I want. Nigger.

 

[Clop]

What gratification?

 

[Shaved Kiwis]

I am a softy faggot and most of the cows that I follow I can't laugh at because they are literally insane and I just end up feeling sorry for them. With them I'm in it for the morbid curiosity like slowing down to get a good look at a car crash. I'm not inherently better than them. I'm just lucky enough to have a less fucked up brain chemistry/structure and/or upbringing. Although I definitely feel superior to some of the sane people I laugh at, but I have really low self esteem and for once I can unequivocally state that I am indeed infinitely better at losing weight and cooking than Jack Scalfani, but that is a pretty low fucking bar and that's not why I read his thread in the first place. I read it because that magical man manages to fuck up cooking food in new and exciting ways. The kind of shit you couldn't conjure up with a team of writers. Exactly the type of shit reality TV should have been when it hit the scene around the turn of the century instead of the scripted bullshit that it was.

Personally, I just love watching crazy people and fringe groups. I find them fascinating.

I enjoy KF because unlike other places, nothing’s off-limits for discussion. Nobody has to dance around elephants in the room to fake having the moral high ground.

 

[Red Hood]

This is KFC not KF. Would you like a bucket of the Colonel's finest and most artery clogging chicken?

The main reason I finally made an account here after being vaguely aware of this place for years is because Encyclopedia Dramatica went to shit several years ago and Kiwi Farms as it is now is probably the closest thing to what ED used to be like before all the nonstop infighting and admin scumfuckery decimated it.

Laughing at idiots requires you to believe in a few things:

-it's OK to make fun of people, including yourself
-people are responsible for their own actions
-causing offence is not grounds for censorship
-it's OK to speak to people who have a different opinion or tell people that they are wrong

Those are things I believe, and things that kiwis believe almost by definition. That's why I like this community, these shared attitudes.

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

I just like laughing at shit dumb people do and talking about it with like minded people.

 

[maalikthefakemuzzie]

I am here because I am a muslim exposing the nasty degeneration of the west.

 

[Ruin]

Speak for yourself loser. I for one am the Chaddest of Chads.

Mmm, buckets. I'd love a greasy bucket o' meat please my good man.
Akshully, at school, we used to use the word bucket to refer to any girl that we thought had a large vagina, so whenever I hear the word, I mentally smile & imagine a bucket of fish.

I don't find any gratification to being a Kiwi, I'm only here because I've been perma-banned from everywhere else for being a sick bastard, so this is my last chance saloon. Never thought I'd end up hanging with incels, weebs, faggots & furries but it makes me feel like a fucking Alpha Chad.

 

[FeverGlitch]

I have autism and I find this thread offensive.

 

[nonvir_1984]

I work for the FBI and I was tasked to monitor the site incase any of you looked like going off reservation. But then I found I agreed with you and we are trapped in this fucking clown world and this is my way of coping while I work with exceptional people.
And I like to tell lies.

 

[Friend computer]

I like to follow sperg fests, like GG and now WW, and this a good as place as any, and theres lots of side attractions to look at.

 

[KittyGremlin]

This fellow boulder enthusiast puts it nicely:

 

[Monsieur Guillotine]

This is the one of the most thinly veiled armchair psychology bits I've ever seen.

Listen, OP. We just laugh at people and shitpost. That's it. There's no grand conspiracy or hate crime against your oppressed minority of choice. You can cut the shit, and either stay and join in the harmless fun, or return to your groupthink hellhole.

 

[ProgKing of the North]

I'm just here for the fap material

 

[saisegeha]

I'm here because a cigarette break can be boring and the community's grown on me
also what's not to love about laughing at spergs, you don't even hurt them since you don't do it in real life so you can go home feeling good morally as well.

 

[TowinKarz]

My coworkers don't appreciate my finely-honed shitposting skills like you guys do.
