Not today, but yesterday a group of maybe 10 y/o girls came in n ordered tea. So if someone is taking their drink here i ask them to sit down and i get them their order, so i told them that and they obviously thanked me, and as they were going towards the table went like "goodbye, see you, have a nice day"
I think it was cute idk

Remember the now famous "my immortal" fanfiction, sonic oc recolors or the many nameless mary sue or self inserts you can find anywhere? They are cringy, sure, but the way people cruelly make fun of stuff like this can be very detrimental for the children who found solace in them?
I remember writing shitty naruto fanfiction or drawing my magical girl persona in middle school and for a long time its made me feel very very ashamed.
And sure, of course this kind of things are funny for the onlooker, because they are childish and self gratifying but they shouldn't be something someone is humiliated, harshly criticised for.
I think the need to laugh at them comes from a place of superiority, from the need to be cooler and more mature.
Anyway whats your take on cringe culture? Have you ever done cringy stuff and if so how do you feel about it now?

@Vii: OMG!!! honestly i wasnt expecting any replies but you made my day!!
God i loved the last blade runner movie so So much! i Live for the cyberpunk aesthetic!! It reminded me of the deus ex games tbh
Speaking of games, have you heard of "The Observer"? It looks and plays out exactly like a Philip K Dick novella. Its one of my favourite games because it reminded me so much of him, his worlds and ideas. If you can, I really recommend checking it out.
I half read - half listened to a scanner darkly. Weird and hopeless just as i like my novels tbh. How was the movie? Also I think there's a miniseries adaptation of the man in the high castle, i never checked it out myself but my boss told me its p neat

my story is going to be a little backwards, as i Loved King as a teen and i feel he was one of the most influential when it comes to my own writing style. I absolutely adored his way of writing, found the gimmicks he put to use to be very clever and refreshing. I think "the stand" was my favourite book of his, but i also loved classics such as and carrie, the shining or misery.
However, i think i was around 20 when my love for his work withered. What actually did it was 11.22.63, which i dont think is a very well known novel of his and even though the plot was interesting enough to keep me going, what happened is i had this sudden epiphany.
I felt that he wasn't writing for me. And obviously he doesn't even know me, so there was no way he was thinking specifically at me when writing or anything. What i felt was completely disconnected from his world perspective, beliefs and ideas. His character types no longer resonated with me, and I know it might have just been that particular novel, but I felt like i wasn't enjoying his writing anymore.
I have yet to open up another Stephen King novel, but I think at some point i definitely will.

I discovered him in my highschool years after dabbing in different kinds of fantasy/science fiction and fell in love with his work
I've read around a 7-10 of his books, the most recent being dr. Bloodmoney, and I've started re-reading Ubik but stopped put that on hold as I started Dune.
I still have to read the electric ant, which my sis has read already
Overall he is my second favourite writer, and even though I love every book of his I've read, my favourite has to be Ubik, followed by the book that inspired blade runner, Do androids dream of electric sheep

What about you? How did you discover Philip K, what is your favourite novel and what about his work attracted you?

Im a Ravenclaw all the way. I love knowledge for the sake of knowledge, im extremely curious and inquisitive. Ive taken a lot of quizzes in my youth, even the pottermore one n all got me the same result
If I had to choose any other house, id choose Slytherin.
