Do you spend so much time on the internet that...

[A dot Ham]

Nothing is cool anymore?

I seriously feel so bored like i've seen everything cool, funny, exciting, shocking, gruesome, disgusting... etc. that there is on the internet.

Nothing is new, I am so bored.

Seriously though everything from lolcats ====> 2 girls 1 cup ====> some dude taking a chainsaw to a live pig (probably the grossest thing i've seen, even above a live beheading of a human being)

I don't really go looking for stuff, its just one website leads to another which leads to another... which leads to a computer virus, which somehow leads to me having a real STD...

It seems your priorities are a bit off. Why are you using the internet purely to find more strange/disturbing things? I'm not saying thats wrong, simply that... Theres more to the internet than that.

I have to check every few hours just to see what of my 10-20 different sites have updated.

theres a fairly high quality easily accessible video of a mexican cartel beheading a guy with a chainsaw then beheading his family member with a butcher knife

if that doesnt shock you i think youre lying

Internet is awesome everyday I learn something new and keep me up to date.But I thing if you overdose it provides many social/psychological problems.

Holy crap. Why would you want to watch something like that?!?

[Kalerender]

Maybe use it to learn something new about the world, rather than looking at shocking/funny things?

I was on 4chan and saw a gif file of the video then searched it to see if it was actually real.

turns out it was

felt sick for a few hours after watching it - never again

I just watched it. It was gruesome, but just kinda "Meh'd" over it. Granted I am also a very non emotional person when it comes to violence.

I'm actually slightly concerned. I decided to check out that video because of people talking about it (including the news), but it really didn't phase me as much as I thought it would. I admittedly winced at one point, and I didn't watch it with sound, but other than that the only execution I've seen was a guy getting shot in the head in an old Vietnam War documentary clip. I think I would blame movies for that desensitization moreso than the internet, however... I don't normally search for weird stuff.

Things may not be new and nothing may shock him anymore(he has seen many murder videos/gifs like someone brought up, they really aren't bad), but Skelington still isn't bored.

^Not porn... Presentation on arousal addiction

Ironic that I just found that, in my boredom. Answers my questions... perfectly... a little creepy how this fits exactly how I am feeling/what I was thinking about.

Behavior change incoming...

Thats how I felt with the pig... I think I may just be wired differently and/or have a huge soft spot for animals vs humans. But it ruined my week...

I work in the mall, I witnessed a moron with a little puppy lose its leg to an escalator... cried for days. I still tear up thinking about it

I really, really doubt that.

Thats not even close to the sickest, most disgusting stuff you can find on the internet.

And no, you won't find that kind of stuff on 4chan.

It's not about being emotional or even about being a tough ass, it's about empathy and empathy is proportional to your moral fiber.

4chan is a wretched place, anybody on it should feel nothing but shame. Yes there are worse things lurking on the internet and to know of them only adds to the shame.

[Ihnasir]

I see everything hours, days, weeks before everyone else sees it. Hell, people are still talking about the Miami Zombie. PAY THE FUCK ATTENTION.

[Evil Inside]

If those things dont bother you then you've been desensitized to such things.

Its funny how people still see /b/ that way.

/b/ is nothing compared to the deep net, it doesen't even come close. And /b/ isen't all of 4chan btw, stop confusing them.

cool beheading video. it's like he's cutting a tough piece of steak at the end. The guttering sound of his breath was interesting too. Thought he was dead until i heard that.

4 chan is kindergarten compared to what it used to be like.

Oh don't get me wrong, what makes 4chan and everything related to it so wretched isn't really how shocking the content is but how idiotic it is. 4chan celebrates all that is wrong with humanity and that makes it one of the cesspools of the internet. As for the "deep net" if you're regular visitor, then there should be no doubt in your mind about what kind of person you really are.
