When I first found the NSFW funny pictures thread, I laughed my ass off through 200 pages in one day. It was so hard to keep myself from annoying everyone in the computer lab, and I'm pretty sure most people thought I was crazy.

Over time though, I think I developed a tolerance for the funny pictures. It wasn't just that a lot of the pictures I saw were reposts, a lot of the new pictures just didn't make me laugh anymore. A year after discovering the NSFW thread, I only really laughed when I was in a good mood already and someone posted some really funny pictures.

Now a days, I rarely ever laugh at the random pictures thread. I think I've built a tolerance to it. Like I can't find things in the thread funny anymore. But it's not just the funny pictures that I've built a tolerance to.

I might even be getting more apathetic to global issues. When I was younger I used to care a lot about all the political threads about when new laws were being passed, and about sensationalistic news stories (rape and murder). Now I just don't even click on those threads. I know they'll be boring. I used to feel sick every time I saw a starving African child. Now I don't even care about them. They're strangers to me, and I care less about them than I care about whether I have milk in the fridge. Same with hobos.
I'm afraid that I'll build a tolerance to everything that I find fun in life. Like things are really fun when I'm just starting them, but really quickly I just get bored of everything.

I kinda wanted to draw some comics in paint for this blog but decided that'd take too much time before watching 1hr of vods.

all economic and market monopolies depend on this very real part of animal nature: habituation.
it gets people to be pushed to do things (or pay for things) that 10 years ago everyone would;'ve seen as bullshit.
yes, habituation decreases the extremity of our reaction to things. This is not a good thing in a world full of people looking to take advantage of others.

You guys haven't been around as long as me...
As part of the great Starcraft 2 purge to get sponsors for the site (and to make esports look more professional?) teamliquid 1984'd the old nsfw funny pictures thread.

I maybe understand the funny pictures tolerance though it hasn't happened to me but as to the general thread and world news I've come to stop looking or caring but I don't think from tolerance more of just getting tired of stupid responses and tired of the news itself, what people do to each other over such small things
