    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I wouldn't say stop, but at least in my case it's diminished over time.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Reading and understanding what other people said takes too much time, it's more efficient to just make it up and the respond to that.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Boy, this topic is inscrutable today.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I had already been exposed to his poetry before I knew of RP1 so even in my peak insufferable twit days I did not like him.

    The fact that they're busy suing each other isn't helping either.

    What are you reading in 2026?

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    No, I'm not missing his point. I don't know how to communicate more clearly that I understood his point (which isn't even a complicated enough one that it would be reasonable to accuse someone of not getting) or that what I'm taking away is not what he intended to say, considering I explicitly...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Like I said, I understand it's a personal exploration of his feelings, so the things that are off putting to me aren't intended. I don't even disagree with most of what he says here.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Just thinking things and moving on from them is, imo, a great skill that people my age and younger were disinclined to learn growing up with social media. I am...I won't say I'm doing a lot better as I've rediscovered the ability but it has made a noticeable difference in my moods.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I would bet quite a lot of money that the author of this little comic from the 80s wasn't thinking about old english while writing it.
