Going through my comments/inbox I noticed how thirsty I was with the amount of girls I've messaged and the people that wanted to fight me cause I talked to their online gf not to get started on all the emotes I used too

Occasionally. My older posts were a great deal edgier and more hyperbolic. Lots of superfluous swearing in there too.

I have 5,082 posts on here and I'm confident that at least 5,081 of them are bad.

Not really. I was fine back then and I’m fine now. At least on MAL.
My other site archivals, or what you can find left of them, are pretty embarrassing

I've only been on here since 2016 so I doubt anything I posted back then would be cringe to the current me, so no. I have done that on other older forums I used to post on, though, and it was always amusing.


What's the difference?

I still have moments even now when I am cringy, it's nothing new or all about the past, and I'm sure that it's not just in my case here.

my liberal 2015-2016 posts do make me cringe when i remember them, yeh.

Oh maybe, maybe it's the clothes we wear
The tasteless bracelets and the dye in our hair
Or maybe, maybe it's our nowhere towns or our nothing places
But we're trash, you and me
We're the litter on the breeze
We're the lovers on the streets
Just trash, me and you
It's in everything we do
It's in everything we do

Is there a point going through the post I once entered just to have +1 shitpost? Surely, you have be that free.

Also, posts I tend to read were like 1-3 weeks thread that got bump and thought for a moment if I did post there and if I unsure I check. If I did, then I close it.

My FB acc posts were cringey as fuck though. I always wish I can go back in time and slap my own fingers for typing blatantly attention seeking shit online. I am so damn glad I deleted my account a long time ago.

I cringe at posts I wrote like earlier today. Many of my forum posts have ironic / humorous (to me) elements and those elements age poorly, because their meaning is heavily dependent on my mood and thoughts in the moment. So I start to lose the meaning as soon as the moment passes and shortly thereafter I often can't remember what the heck I was even getting at.

And then there's the distancing effect where you realise you could have said the same thing in a much better or clearer way.

My past ideological commitments don't make me cringe so much as they remind me that (almost) every side has some compelling ideas. This is somewhat cynical, but it seems like almost anyone can come to almost any set of ideological commitments if their life circumstances and choices are such that they mainly engage with some ideas and not others.

I think the best we can do is recognise that, interrogate our own motives, and make an effort to selectively engage some with new or contrary ideas.

Can you post these racial slurs obviously with quotation marks which makes it not racist

I think my posts are okay for the most part, I try to write quality posts most of the time and have discussions, sometimes I'm bored and I might shitpost a little bit, but I don't ever get to a point where I'm cringing/regretting what I posted.

Maybe my posts from when I first joined are cringy because I didn't know anything about anime culture and I would lose a lot of debates lol or end up sounding dumb... Those posts are far too old to find by now though.
