Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

I get it, but maybe dont post just to be posting? The internet misses you, but it will get along OK without you for a day or two while you think of something relevant to anything.

You think I'm posting just to post?

Tom, you deeply misunderstand.
I post out of necessity.
I post to fill the gargantuan void in my being, created by self-loathing and a massive inferiority complex.
I post out of soul crushing boredom.
I post for the respite my memes offer to millions of introverts, who would rather light themselves on fire, than attend another office meeting
I post to shout into the abyss, and to tell it that it cannot have my soul, my creativity, or the surrender of my will just yet.

but mostly...

I post, just because I really, really like memes

Oh shit. I would give you my usual "Sorry for being a dick, I had a few too many last night" but that was actually kind of inspiring. In this case I'm glad I drew something beautiful from tour soul by being a douche.
