I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

I played Minecraft back before it was in beta, about a year before everyone else cared about it, upon recommendation from my friend.

I also used Twitter when it was a new thing and not many people had twitter accounts. Oddly enough I use it less now

1. Join TL yesterday.
2. Pretentiously complain about how pretentious people are now, and how things were better before you joined. (romanian humor is deep)
3. ???
4. Don't get banned.


aha! but to say i am pretentious because i have low post count is in itself pretentious. I would say since I am not pretentious, that you are the one being silly and pretentious.
Zerg definitely does have responses to FFs pre-hive tech. Infestors, baneling drops, burrowed roaches, and mutas are all options

I saw MGMT before they got sued, when they were still The Management... Hipster'd

This thread is hilarious

Also when someone accuses me of being a hipster my standard reply has now become " I was a hipster before there were hipsters" Usually works out well.


Wow.

I agree.

Hipster'd.

And good response.

I really dislike this way of thinking, I had a couple of friends that succumbed to this, trying to be "cool" all the time and being ahead of the times, its really sad in my opinion. One of them actually said to me once "I used to really like Biffy Clyro, but now everyone likes them so they suck!" -.-. As people have said, like something because you like it, not because it is "cool" to like it or "uncool" because everyone likes it.

I can add to the thread in a more positive manner however, in that I used to play Call of Duty, the first one, online all the time. In fact it was one of my first online games that I got really involved in (funnily enough it was with one of those guys from above), and kinda got to disliking the game after number 2, which actually co-incided with the game getting more popular. This was not a cause and consequence thing though, it was actually more to do with the game requiring less skill than the early versions which I didn't like as a transition (I loved my rifles in CoD 1 and 2!)

Damn you Welliforgot, I was about to post the same thing!

I liked PurePwnage back in the first season of their web show, before people screamed "Boom, Headshot!" in FPS lobbies.

I was subscribed to Freddie Wong on YouTube back when he made Guitar Hero videos and had less than 150 subscribers (for those of you who don't know, his videos consistently get 1 million views in their first week now. He's hilarious).

I liked Bo Burnham way before he got big.

I liked the Lonely Island back when "Lazy Sunday" was their only hit, and nobody even knew it was them who wrote it.

I thought Rick Rolling was hilarious before most people had heard the words "We're no strangers to love".

i dislike the personality too and i am a victim of it. I just cant help it its in my nature.. It pisses me off when i have this feeling but it pisses me even more when i realize i have it

I remember being very unwilling to tell people I played WoW because almost all of the people in my school thought WoW was just a retarded, addicting video game. I eventually quit, and then CoD4 came out and like 90% of my friends got it and they wouldn't stfu about it. I was like, "You idiots thought addicting video games and spending all your time there was retarded, and now you can't talk about something else."
Even now, years later, people I know hear *WoW* and they think of nerds in dark basements, but they sit on the xbox cursing and playing CoD and are like, "Yeah that's totally different, nbd."
I don't dislike them for that and I'm not bitter about it, but it makes me sad to see people be like that.

I think that kind of thing is funny/amusing myself. If the whole world was that way, it might be sad, but for every person like that there's also another who isn't--just consider how many have played WoW in spite of its "fat nerd living in mom's basement" stigma.

As for my own hipster moments, I can claim MGMT and that's about it. I dunno if playing BW in 2000 counts or not, but I lean towards not.
