Do you ever catch that there's generally always a glaring pattern to the way pictures are posted? Like, in the porn threads on /b/ sometimes it's almost as if the collective unconscious is shaping an image for itself, dancing a million bodies through the pictures.

When you tell a person to kill themselves, you're actually speaking from a really deep part of you which basically resents the world and is putting up a petty fight in a lot of ways, you're basically being a brat. It's kinda like how rapists were more often than not abused, they never managed to see others as, like, others others, like there was this other and that other, but instead always this all-consuming other which raped them. And then people play a retarded game, as if it's all all right, it'll be over soon, but this is it. It's hard to know what people get into their heads then. Like, girl's cutting themselves is an example, as if to take the world upon yourself, even if it is equivalent to just cutting yourself, it's a choosing to enjoy it because that's the greatest defiance we have. The alcoholic sitting watching his lager drain from every glass, getting more bitter as it empties, like metaphorical injections of lager, like hourglasses full of beer... It's all mental, isn't it? But to tell someone to kill themselves (I got so fucking lost in thought there), ... is like really fucking pathetic, you bitch.

It happens because people program themselves to their 'patterns' anon. Like, the religious man will look up just in time, every time, to see some counter go 666 or something, people basically act to see the pattern 'coincidentally'. And it's dealing with a feeling, really - people bring it on themselves, because it exists in them whether relevant to the outside or not, and sometimes those niggling little things can become big things and they get the forefront.
