Your life would be better off if you stopped using this site and stopped following Internet drama

Overtime I have come to a realization that following Internet drama or lolcows is a complete waste of time and your life will suffer from it because it has no meaning.

Happiness comes from our lives having meaning, by applying your energy to create something meaningful. Whether it's a painting, or part of new hardware or software you helped design.

In many ways, technology, the Internet, and overstimulation is the cause of so much mental illness in the world. People spend their whole lives facing a screen, which is never what humans were supposed to do.

We're supposed to be outside, socializing with others, gathering food, hunting, and starting fires.

But we shouldn't go back to that. At the very least we should focus 95% of our time on self improvement, both physically, mentally, and socially. You should go outside, exercise, study something that will help you in your career to live a more fulfilling life.

Get rid of all your videogames, it's just overstimulation and escapism. Go on the forum less often, because it's just mindless entertainment, which doesn't really benefit you does it.
 
Use judgement on whether or not you are enjoying the content or if you are becoming upset from it. If it's the latter then take a break and don't browse. Doomposting happens all over not just this site so this can be applied in plenty of places.

The rest of what OP is saying is boilerplate technology bad. This kind've whining existed well before the internet and will continue unabated.
 
Shut up, nerd!


In all seriousness, my mental health would probably be a lot worse if I didn't have this place to help destress. The world is a mad, mad, mad place right now and you're not allowed to truthfully talk about it damn near anywhere else.


Though I will be fair, some of the cows do make me want to go nuclear. I try to fuck off back to the funny when it hits that point, but some of my posts definitely show I sometimes let it get to me. You just gotta learn to recognize when you're getting perturbed and walk away.
 
You certainly should not overuse this site. Set a limit for yourself daily and stick to it, just like you would with anything else that could distract you or be abused (like food, alcohol, spending, etc).

Lolcow reading is great for when you're waiting in line at the store.
 
Watching crazy losers ruin their own lives helps remind me how important keeping meaning in my own life is.

The cows we study on Kiwifarms are the result of not having meaning, not the cause of it.
I mean I have to agree. Following these weirdos has helped me appreciate how much worse my life could be, and be thankful my parents worked hard to make me a somewhat normal autist Instead of a diaper wearing furfag.
 
No it wouldn't, I'd have one less form of entertainment for when I'm not working, raising my kids, committing time to another one of my hobbies, or doing stuff with my wife. This site is a hobby for me for when I have free time away from all of those things and it's pretty entertaining. Granted, my life wouldn't be any measurably worse either, but this site is fun

I agree.

If I don't post "nigger" at least once a day, I'll fucking explode.

Also, the Farms is not only for lolcows and drama. You should really lurk more.
