I randomly started looking through my facebook timeline. The first few posts were kinda funny, but as I started going further back in time, I hung my head in shame. It was possibly even worse than looking at my earlier CFC posts. I'm ashamed to call you myself, younger me. If I ever found my old myspace page I might gouge my eyes out. edit: because I hate myself, I found it. Luckily, they overhauled the site ten times since the last time I logged in, so everything except my terrible profile picture is gone. A minor miracle.

I get the same feeling when I look at my old AIM logs. The stupidity! The horror! The tragedy! The folly! The unforgivable nature of it all! Even though I spoke in eloquent, formal english, that is little comfort for the fact that it is just painful to look at.
When I visited an old high school friend of mine a couple months ago, we looked up her old facebook posts and chats for the lulz, and came across an argument she had with her/my best friend about something stupid. Unholy Angra Mainyu be cursed, seeing that stuff embarrassed me as much as it embarrassed her. So, I suppose, if it's any consolation for you, I think a lot of us would probably have the same reaction if we saw our old stuff. I suppose it's a similar idea to how sometimes artists/writers/musicians/etc. look upon their old works with shame and want to burn them or something.
Oddly, I've found my earlier diary entries to not be as embarrassing as my old AIM logs. Perhaps because I'm more honest in such a case, and also because in my diaries I'm very consciously aware that I'll be looking back at it years from now or something.
Oh hey maybe I should look up my facebook timeline too.

didn't chat and messages be two separate features on facebook?
thats what annoys me the most. yeah I had really dumb posts I'm sure (well I know I did. More pretentious than dumb I guess) but old message logs are combined with chat logs. So if I (or rather, anyone else) goes back and looks at that, serious messages can be intermixed with stupid chats.
ah well. selling my soul to the social media world.

I've been on CFC since I was 12, and just about everything from the first couple of years of me posting here is either inane, stupid, me being a total douche to other people on the forum, or some combination of those three.
What the hell, pubescent me? What were you thinking?

I am now suddenly inclined to look at the early posts of respected members of the CFC community.
Also, another sobering observation: Civfanatics has been around for long enough it's possible now that there are regular posters here who weren't even alive yet when Civfanatics first came along.

In theory they're not allowed to be registered yet.
Wait 2 more years.
Oh, yeah, that feeling.
I totally don't get why women like to go shoe shopping (bad stereotype, I know).
It's always terrible, they never fit or never look good. Or both.

I STILL CAN'T FIND A #%*& OF BOOTS THAT FIT PROPERLY!

*lol* nice one.
Unrelated: Got a rejection after the Salsa. Not from the girl I originally wanted to ask out today (doesn't always work the way...), but from the one I had in mind from the beginning on. Sucks :/. And she had been so flirty...:/. *sigh*
Let's see if I get tomorrow another one via email, or if maybe that works out...

Sometimes people are flirty because it's fun to be. Got me into trouble once. :/

Voting sounds like a rant in of itself.

They say that you can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.
I have come to believe that you can never please all the people, and very rarely can you please anyone at all.

The rantier rant would be the results of the elections today.
It was something different, which is good enough for me.
Beats everything else in my life.
At least I'm far away from that *lol*.
I check the surroundings before ^^.
You need to pick whom you want to please. Not everyone is important.
