    68 KB How has 4chan changed you? Anonymous 02/25/12(Sat)09:35:55 No.1543180  
    I rarely go on 4chan anymore, but I just had an interesting revelation about how 4chan has changed my life. That is, I realized that 4chan planted (and/or watered, I'm not sure) the seed of most, if not all of my current interests. I'm 18 now and I started browsing /b/ in 2007 when I was 13. Within the year, I found my way to /mu/, and before that, I didn't know much anything about music. Now I play multiple instruments at a high level-intermediate proficiency and am planning on intensely studying music, music history, etc in university next year (though as a double major with something less humanities so I'm not poor.)

    Around the same time I found /mu/, I found /fa/ and I've been really interested in fashion since. And I wouldn't say that I'm going to do anything in my life that involves fashion, it's a hobby that's become unconscious to me that most people don't have.

    And /fa/ led me to /fit/ because I was fucking obese, and since then I've fostered a strong love for health and nutrition; and, again, this love has become unconscious and it seems unheard of for me to not get my proper nutrients and hit the gym.

    And 4chan inadvertently led me to other websites which fostered other loves while I was young, namely giving me a profound interest in literature at about 15.

    All of this is just a few examples of how this site has affected me.

    Again, I don't know if 4chan planted these seeds or just nourished them, but either way, this website has altered in some way my persona and made what I would feel is a better and more rounded individual and I thank you all for it.

    How has 4chan effected YOU over the course of your adventure here?

    Well before /r9k/ got shut down I was at an all time low in my life with no self confidence. When it got shut down I moved to /fit/ and started working out. That caused a kind of a butterfly effect since my confidence improved so did every other aspect of my life which was awesome. Thanks to /ic/ I stopped being an anime faggot and started improving my art a lot more.

    thanks to /ic/ i realized that there was some kind of strand or commonality between french comix and manga which helped me to understand how the mechanics of manga work so that i could use them as opposed to merely appropriating the surface style, or worse, religiously avoiding the style in some sort of unexamined backlash

    /mu/ (my main board) made my tastes less pleb and turned me in to "that guy" who knows about all the new releases and listens to everything. I wouldn't listen to 99% of the stuff I listen to (especially not things like black metal or hip hop) without it. <3 /mu/

    /tv/ turned me into a hebephile/ephebophile and got me into watching some tv series like doctor who

    /fa/ made me dress better

    /fit/ taught me a little bit about nutrition and how to be healthier but i haven't really used it to bulk up... yet

    /x/ showed me a bunch of cool creepy youtube videos and creepypasta but not a whole lot of great stuff there nowadays

    /ck/ got me into cooking a little bit

    /ic/ discouraged any hopes of every getting back into drawing

    /co/ got me in to comics and adventure time, regular show, and that new scooby doo

    /toy/ got me into buying some action figures and legos again then i gave up because i'm poor as fuck

    that's about it

    I hate cynics
    Became slightly cynical, or at least sceptical of other peoples motives in life
    Self loathing has evolved into something more, like it fuels me and gives me energy
    Bi-curious
    Apathetic and stoic
    Understanding that people bullshit constantly
    Envy and hate those who have found love
    Just proved over and over that people who claim to have ">130 IQ" are pretty fucking clueless

    I now suspect many more people are stridently racist and alarmingly, rapily (yes, I made up a word) sexist than I previously thought.

    Also, I now distrust anyone who casually mentions their IQ.

    My sense of humor has become much more disgusting.

    I'm now unfazed by anything that's not gore/underage.

    I rage harder at people under 18 and their whiny faggotry.

    I find fucking with people much funnier.

    Guess which board.

    /lit/ got me into reading nonfiction, which resulted in a change in my whole belief system, from religion to personal philosophies. Since then I have read dozens of books on science and philosophy. The recommendation of a book from one person changed my entire life.

    /mu/ helped me discover some of the bands I'm really into. Great music.

    /b/ showed me very stupid, but funny, humor. It wouldn't be wrong to say it made me more humorous.

    /b/ mainly Bailey Jay in particular got be into traps, before I was repulsed by them. I don't think i could ever fuck one though, the camera hides alot of there masculine features.

    /v/ actually made me hate pretentious games instead of making me like them, I really don't want to end up like some faggot who measures his intelligence based on his vidya tastes.

    /cgl/ made me loss all sympathy for fat women.

    /r9k/ and /soc/ made me hate girls who browse 4chan, just a bunch of ugly/average girls who think they're gods gift to men.

    I've certainly gained a lot of information about things on the internet and in the world that I wouldn't have heard of otherwise.

    I would say that /mu/ developed my music taste but I have a feeling it would have happened anyway it was just a good community to it in, but I have since left /mu/ because the trolling is unbearable.

    /tv/ actually got me into watching television. For a long time I never watched anything but now I always have some series marathoning.

    The one thing it has definitely done is make me far more open minded. The last part of my adolescence was spent on 4chan and I think it has ultimately made me a better person. It's strange to me how some people still have really strict moral values about anything. It's also killed off my nationality. I don't really see myself as English but more a part of the internet culture. Which is somewhat sad but the truth is that what is happening here, right now, is what people will remember this time period for not for keeping up some shitty British traditions.

    I realised I'm not as strange as I once thought I was, that there are many people here who have made worse decisions, have had higher spaghetti levels, or just have much worse personalities than I have.

    /tg/ got me into some new novels I hadn't read, same with /a/ but for anime

    Also, without 4chan my glorious fap folder may never have existed. And for that I thank you 4chan.

    I think I have become much more cynical/cautious of other people from the things I have seen here. I have developed a sense of humor that makes others uncomfortable.
    Positives include:
    Knowing much more about how to protect my own privacy, if necessary.
    Knowing better than to do a lot of stupid shit people do on the internet.
    Greater interest in cooking, and learning about things like cast iron cookware.
    Love for lolita fashion, learning about other random girly things.
    Lifehacks.
    Early healthier, lifting.
    I'm sure there is a ton more but I have a fucking cold that's killing my face.

    All /fa/ ever talks about are basics and fit, they literally do not deviate out of that.

    But sweatpants are more comfortable that what I mentioned anyway right?

    My racism toward whites are stronger, socially. I'm convinced that most of them don't want nothing to do with blacks. The ones that do interact with are forcing their interactions. I never had thoughts like this before.

    /r9k/ makes me depressed. I subconsciously attempt to relate to myself whenever reading a story or issues that another person has. The result? I focus on changing myself instead of just accepting the moment. Then, I end up going here to see how I can relieve my symptoms of self doubt.

    /b/ may have had an influence on me liking traps. Not sure though. /b/ definitely desensitized me to the more disgusting shit that goes in in the world. I don't think I can go any lower on my expectations on how lousy people can be.

    /fit/ motivated me to stay in the gym
