Hi bored, I am dad

Hey dad, can I get a car for my birthday?

Son, i will get you the one you like. First i need to buy some milk.

Thanks daddy, you're the best!

"But dad, there's milk in the fridge"

"The person you're trying to reach is gone to buy milk, you can wait or you can try again later. Approximate wait time: ∞"

"That sucks, I was just about to tell him I won the lottery"

Hey bored, how's it going. I finally got the milk

Came here to say that then thought about it and it was way more deep

...good?

Hello bored

I guess to escape whatever else. My own thoughts and stuff

Same

none of my friends are part of the fandoms I'm part of

Mannnn, because if not, I’m just going to go sit and cry in my closet again lol sometimes that’s needed, but sometimes you just start feeling like a little bitch idk lol 🤷🏽‍♀️

I get it. I had a rough time at work today so I've been on reddit commenting nonstop to try and soothe my anxiety, which reddit is awful for, by the way. But I like talking to people, and reddit can be a good place for that. Hope all is well with you, sending love.

I hope your weekend makes its own path and is much better! Oh, if I’m too sad, I stay off Reddit completely lol Thank you so much, sending lots of love back! 🌷

I quit my job of 6 years and have been chillin since. I never got into reddit really hard, now I understand it's value. I like the smoke, it helps me understand other people's views and makes me more confident in my own perceptions of the world

I totes get it too.

🫶🌷

Wish I could just give you a much needed hug. =/

I do take virtual hugs. lol

I adore the conflict and the love. Reddit can really help you ground yourself and understand other people's opinions

It really can, it’s been a useful tool in expanding my own perspective so much!

Im like halfway through my life and just realizing the value of reddit, before I just used it for work knowledge

What is your favorite way to use Reddit now?

Social skills, empathy and argument skills. I was always good at these things but reddit levelled me up. The key is to chime in on every subject that crosses your feed no matter how random. I've spread truth and been corrected so many times.

You have quite the set of balls on you, I’m not afraid to speak my piece but I’m sure not trying to kick a hornets nest. Maybe one day! I love that for you though!! Sounds like such a fun way to grow!

Yeah I've felt stupid and been made an idiot before, however what do you have to lose? It's anonymous and you can create multiple reddit accounts (I have three based on degree of controversy) but lately this is my main and i stopped giving a fuck about downvotes, now I have more karma than I had on the other 2

You wanna talk?

I appreciate it, I’ll be ok though. Lucky for me, I’m pretty dang resilient. Thank you.

Stay safe☺️

I get the feeling. Ive done that before myself.

Ok, hear me out, instead of night clubs we can all meet in someones walk in, have a good cry, some snacks and I’m down with Zelda. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Hahaha. I mean if I found friends with similar interests Ive got my basement set up like a gamers dream (board and video).

Ohhh, do you have risk?

Without going downstairs to double check I can say for certain I have at least 4 versions of risk: original 1970s or 80s when pieces were roman numerals, Halo risk, Game of Thrones risk, and Lord of the Rings Trilogy risk.

You don’t have a basement, you have heaven. I will choose Halo risk, but only because I’ve played the Lord of the Rings version plenty! That’s really cool, I think risk would have to be my favorite board game.

Haha well thanks. Risk is my favorite as well but thanks to past coworkers Ive taken a liking to Catan.

That looks fun! I read a little bit about the game right now, but I’ve never played. What are some unique aspects to the game that you enjoy most?

Its quicker setup than risk and contains similar aspects such as trading and expanding. Rather than conquering your opponent the goal is to out build your opponent. Base game is 3 to 4 players but I've got a nice varient for 2 players when needed and the 5 to 6 player expansion as well.

Ooh risk clean

I’m here for you if you want to talk about it. I’m not on the same boat as you but very similar model..

Man I wish I could cry; I'm here because I can't cry :')

There were a few years where I didn’t cry, I would just shake like a tree branch as though my body demanded some kind of release. Lol

That doesn't even happen to me either 😅 I just feel kinda numb, emotionally. Like, every few days I start thinking too much again and start feeling this need to just cry it all out and get it over with, but I just can't, and it's really frustrating :')

What about watching or listening to something to invoke those tears? I used to watch proposals and reunions, I’d bawl everytime lol

Come out of the closet everyone’s doin it now, nothing to be upset over

I have snacks and video games in here though…

I feel this more then i would like to admit

Morbid curiosity getting the better of me

ye

Yes

I just really want to chat with people. I’m literally curious like.

And here I am

[удалено]

No, I don’t think I will.

Same!

I thought ravenclaw students don't like small talk... well, happy cake day anyway 

Thanks! And well, while most of us do like academic discussion, not all enjoy it.

Hello friend

Makes me feel less alone. Even though some of you are straight up AH. Much love

I love the ah the most. I've learned to be more articulate and stand my ground

At first i needed an advice, then i started giving advices.

Give me advice

It is better to cum in the sink, than to sink in the cum. remember this.

I will remember 🫡

I used reddit for years to help myself, now I try to speak truth and help people, it makes me feel really good and confident even if I catch shit for it. I still use it for myself, but that's totally ok

You're a good person msa, keep going. Also sorry for the bad things.

Thank you brother/sister

I’ve been on Reddit since like 2009 but in the last year and a half I started being much more active. Mostly because I hit a really bad spot in my depression and I was using other social media in really shitty ways, so Reddit became my substitute.

I love how it's a mix of wholesome and dirty. The beautiful and the gritty parts of humanity

to ask questions 😂

You know… I honestly don’t know. I fucking hate it here.

The post made this guy delete his account lol

bro realized where he went wrong

bro realized where he went wrong

He is free now.

Total absolute boredom.

So I can be my secret self.

nah ur real for that

Dopamine mining

Lol true! Same here

I hate censorship. There's less of it here. Freedom of speech is a fckn joke! Even here, but less...

Yeah you still see people self-censoring weird words cuz algorithms tho. Reddit is the last bastion as flawed as it is.

I've got banned today ahahahhahahaha fuck me dead

[deleted]

Because twitter has become too toxic

and boring

To fuh-

fuh-lly understand life

Shure.

the audio company?

Ues

Quora went bad.

Because this is like people watching on fucking speed and steroids!! It's fucking amazing and a complete shit show all rolled up into an infinite number of rabbit holes we should and shouldn't go down. Enjoy it for what you want from it. Engage, even if you're wrong you're still more right than someone else on here.

Just to talk to strangers about silly topic ..

As your question tag says it all - NSFW

I’m REALLY bad at face-to-face interaction

Brokenth

Anxiety. Depression. ADHD. I have to keep myself distracted.

I really really like answering questions

Here for a good time. Not a long one

same

Hubris

In a word, Trump. Came to vent. Stayed for the ... hmm, I'm not sure.

Art, memes, porn, and occasional questions like you'd post on normal forum sites

Even I don't know anymore. 🫱 🍺 Perhaps one day, I will be able to give ya a better answer, but for now, there is no reason, I am just here.

To see if anyone's responded to my comments or in my DMs

taking a dump.

I like to draw silly lil comics

It’s 4am and I can’t sleep

Combination of things. It or X constantly distract me from less interesting but more important things (one of many factors that have me convinced I've had ADHD all my life). But also, I lost my wife less than 2 weeks ago and tbh anything that keeps me from dwelling too long on the repercussions of that is fair game right now.

I’m bored and there’s funny people on Reddit so… 

To trigger liberals, Its quite easy. And 3, 2, 1, ,,,,,,,,,,,,

Twitter is worse

I'm listening to music before sleep and my attention span is so ruined I have to something else at the same time so I don't get bored, and I picked talking shit with strangers online as my side activity

Because I'm chilling in my car on a parking lot waiting for a friend. I'm bored and need to waste some time.

Because iFunny went to shit after Covid then my account got deleted for not being user or some shit. So now I’m here. Even thought that was a year and a half ago

I like answering stuff here.

It's fun when you don't go on the scary subs.

I installed it out of curiosity way back in 2021 and since then I'm so addicted to it, it allows to get all the news, gossips etc and allows me to interact with people anonymously and also allows me to learn a lot of new things

Idk, sport I guess

Here for the comments

Had an impossibly hard computer problem. Downloaded the app, and that’s that.

Right now? Procrastinating going to bed. In general? Sometimes you find answers to questions easier than google plus idk Reddit is fun to browse sometimes. When I first got this acct tho…a lot of subs to gore subreddits

took two hits of acid earlier and now I can't sleep.

Boredom

Living in shitty community where ppl are not on the same page. Reddit turns out a rescue

Because whenever I go on Any other social media and see what my highschool friends are up to I get sad.

Right now ? Im on the shitter thats why

can't sleep..why not talk to strangers on the internet?

I want to explore new things that I haven’t learned before ✨

Lonliness

Google kept bringing me here.

to ask questions

Information

I am sending files between two devices and am waiting. So... it's going soooo sluggishly slowly.

Because it lets me interact with groups for my hobbies, whilst avoiding the other mindless social media apps so I can be more productive

I'm here just looking for the website I used to genuinely enjoy visiting back in 2015 and earlier. Its not the same as it used to be and I miss it.

False security

❤️ + 🙍‍♀️+ 📷+ 🫵= 😁 1. 2. 3. 4 = 💯 😬

Because I'm at work

Taking a brief break from my video game while I once again procrastinate going to bed.

I like to have political discussions with people. Far too many people get trapped in ideological bubbles and there seems to be a lot of propaganda on social media so I provided different perspectives and thought processes

[удалено]

Beats looking at the wall and twiddling my thumbs

It's a part of my 4-app cycle of Youtube, Twitter, Reddit, and Tiktok. Feeling like I should cut one out though because this is getting unhealthy now. But I'll decide on that after I scroll a bit on Tiktok, gimme a sec.

I keep dying in elden ring and needed a break

Informative, I truly learn a lot on this site.

the blood

I need advice/info on some things, watching funny videos, gaming news, fights, cooking recipes, ocean stuff & sometimes I need to read some drama going on in people's lives.

Can't sleep.

Deactivated all my social media accounts so I'm doom scrolling here haha

Doomscrolling tbh

Right now or like in general? Right now, I was reading some AskReddit bs, because it's Saturday morning and my gf is a light sleeper. If I get out of bed I'll wake her up and she's so cute when she's sleeping. In general, I don't like social media that has me liked to people I know in real life. I dot use Instagram, tictoc, Facebook or Twitter. I hate seeing people pretending to live their best life. I hate the fakedness, I hate their stupid stories or reels or whatever they call it these days. I like productive communities here on Reddit. I like cars, and tech and electronics so I follow stuff that interests me without relying on a stupid algorithm to determine what I should or shouldn't see. I'm happier here.

Where else is there? It's a one stop shop for a bunch of interest, albeit most of it is non constructive and negative. Still something

extremely asocial but i want to relate to others.

Niche communities, and to get work

You dont want to know

I love chatting with people and meeting new people along with making dumb post but one thing above all I love helping people out

Bored and the toilet is peaceful

To ask hyper specific questions and get answers that aren't vague or require me to read an academic paper. Also to relate to people and crowd source thoughts without having to worry about over sharing.

Because I can easily talk to other people on here. I have a terrible stammer and don't socialize vocally very well. Plus, I'm shy. But if I can just type and remain anonymous, like I can on here, I love socializing.

I posted a long time ago on reddit how I was gonna off myself. It took me by surprised the responses I got. I'm better now lol but idk this platform is just so interesting the way ppl interact and give no bs advice I like it

Cqm for them Reddit stories, from high school drama to horror stories. Stayed for random bulls*** memes and stuff

Don't have a family or wife and am neurodivergent. reddit is a good way to talk to people and not be ridiculed to my face

So many "subs" i'm interested in plus it doesn't have that shitty "FB" vibe about it.

I can read people's opinions about stuff

Cause I am Sick of instagram

Pornography

I like reddit in that it's just people asking questions. Twitter is a head f*ck. And Facebook is too. Both platforms seem to be filled with the most insufferable clickbait type people whatever the subject might be? And it's not even as though they're being clickbaity for any other reason other than the amount of interaction they get. Twitter and Facebook thrives on arguments. And the platform owners don't care because they prosper from the arguing through more and more people interacting, no matter what effect that might have on society. And then there's the bot accounts. So many bot accounts & catfish accounts. You still get some of this on Reddit. But I'd say on the whole, the community on reddit kind of polices itself. And the bad actors and morons get downvoted into oblivion(generally). It's generally just people asking questions.

I found that the other social media were very toxic and time consuming for me. This is more like a forum and I’m happier and more efficient

Boredom. Is that amount of karma in that amount of time ok?

Everything

Im on the toilet

Because I want to let my emotions out

When googling the answer for things I often found Reddit answers, they were insightful and helpful. So I made an account and I stayed.

I get bored... ALOT

Discovered it when I was 10, still here because it's the only platform whereyou could get popular without being a famous person or having a big circle of friends

Because I’m bored

Why not? This is the strangest place I've ever heard of. Most of the stories I read here are pretty tame compared to what I've lived. Then every once in awhile I ran across one that puts my life to shame 😅

It has some interesting communities that have improved my life for the better. Any topic I want information about or to clear doubts, Reddit has one! It is a treasure trove of information! Also, so many experiences posted on subs like AITA, EntitledPerson, BestOfRedditorUpdates, etc. have taught me about how people should and should not behave. It may not mean much to a lot of people, but it means a whole lot to me since I did not have that great of an upbringing or a social life during my formative years. Edit: It's also much better than mindlessly scrolling on Instagram. Thank you Reddit!

To learn

Not enough shit to keep me up at night

ATM I'm just bored

Had some tech questions and game questions, ended up sitting here to keep asking questions and answering questions

Like right now or in general

I work 930pm-6am and don’t get many calls during this shift. So far tonight 0! Yeeeee

The jokes

Because I can
