fake thread missed the time sage

Never forget

We had a lot of avatarfags back in the day. Regular 4am threads every day same time. >>1744817 God bless the shower shitter.

>>1744822 >2015 >mark is a nigger >2025 >mark is a nigger wow

>Hey buddy, the Light Music Club is two doors down Fuck you!

Rule zero of 4am was always no dying. We lost two regulars after the threads died off and one that sent his farewells in the thread after his terminal diagnosis. How many others have died?

There were two (at least) irl meetups of 4am users.

Tor here. I'm all grown up now, a real big boy. How does it feel knowing that the 4am helped raise a teenager? I hope everybody comes back to say hello, it's been a long time. I've missed you all. My life for the past 10 years: >ran away from home to go on a holiday to brisvegas when I was 16 >graduate HS, turn 18 >covid in Melbourne >lockdown for 2 years, illegal to go to the supermarket >blow out a testicle at work >quit job >new job >play with meat >walk around with a giant testicle for a year >if I lift something too heavy I nut >cum >more cum >got surgery from an indian so my nuts are fucked forever >was in a documentary about incels >got a visit from ASIO >become a niche internet micro-celebrity on discord by accident >fuck da innanet i hate dis shit >got a gf That's about where I'm at. Just currently waiting for the race war to break out in Melbourne, I'm really excited tbh. My money is virtually worthless but I'm having fun anyway. I think my dick still works.

>>1744915 nice blog faggot

>>1744915 jesus christ

>>1744933 >>1744809 REPOST!

There was a lot of oc drawings made especially of redanon losing his mind and a hanakoposter (smokes) reminding him of it. tfw no gf and his love for emi hit him hard enough for him to start lifting.

>>1744958 get that nigger in here

We had a discord that still exists. The few remainders that are still there are in a voice chat right now reminiscing. Most of us have got control of our lives and moved on. Some have made it and stayed. It's mostly dead now but holds a place in our hearts. We also occasionally celebrate Ritsu day.

whelp

And that's about it. We had a death pool to see who would die first and no one on the list is dead yet. One trooned out but hasn't roped yet. Interesting times. It'll never be those days again but we remember. When they say you're here forever they don't tell you that here is with you forever too. So long friends and farewell.

>>1744796 >Well boys it's been 10 years. Do you remember the good ol' days? Yes >Where have you been? On the internet >Where are you going? I don't know >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? I've lost control of my life

First time posting on an imageboard in half a decade, its been awhile >Do you remember the good ol' days? Yes, very much so, still cant believe things got taken down >Where have you been? Outside, unfortunately >Where are you going? Back on the internet, unfortunately >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? I've lost control and it feels amazing

Decadely reminder that if things are getting harder, that just means you're going in the right direction. >Do you remember the good ol' days? Sure do, never knew I'd be making friends I'd still talk to all the time 10 years ago. >Where have you been? Hell. Texas. Still in university if you can believe it, life has a way of fucking your shit up but hopefully I'll be done in a year's time. >Where are you going? Hell. Texas. Class in about an hour. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? To go down memory lane with the homies. Been a hell of a decade. I've gotten significantly busier than I was during these threads, the idea of being able to shitpost for two hours at (for me) 3am seems impossible now. Hope you've been good Mark, been a long time. Once the og site got shut down I stopped using imageboards, but definitely wouldn't miss out on this. Hope everyone is stronger and in a better place than they were in 2015.

>>1744796 >Do you remember the good ol' days? Where have you been? Yeah but they were more than ten years ago. 15 is pushing it. >Where are you going? Nowhere, fast. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Because I've lost control of my life.

/tech/ is gone. That was my home.

>>1745313 >life has a way of fucking your shit up You just reminded me about /just/. I'm very sad now.

>>1745646 Let the fact that Brandon actually got his shit unfucked be an eternal reminder that things can always get better.

>>1745774 Indeed, I'm very happy for him. I just miss the good times with the /just/bros. It's a bittersweet kind of feeling.

>>1745001 Im so glad yall saved my fuckass doodles.

Man, it's been 10 years already? time really did fly. >Do you remember the good ol' days? I remember being in 4am as a depressed confused kid fresh out of high school who had no idea what to do in life. I do remember the nice memories of spending the night watching anime in the Cytube. I'm still friends with the main guys there and I consider them my best friends. > Where have you been? Many places. I had to move around a lot in the state because of how rent prices kept going up uintil I convinced my mom that we should get our money together and buy a house. this was right around when Corona started so I made a good call. Now I have a stable job and now work on THE MOST TOTALLY TUBULAR WEBCOMIC ON CYBERSPACE, DUDE! I finally have goals and things to look forward to, and I couldn't have done it without the people I met at 4am >Where are you going? I'm going to make more Rad Dude, that comic helped me gain the confidence to make drawings and push myself to draw. I hope this comic does end up doing some positive impact on what's left on the internet. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? I fell asleep lol. P.S. fuck that faggot who avatarfagged as May. he was a complete retard

>>1744796 >Do you remember the good ol' days? Yes. >Where have you been? Got a job, got a wife, wasn't able to have kids, trying to adopt, don't play videogames anymore. Became a jaded man that doesn't see much fun in new media anymore. >Where are you going? I don't know actually, kind of lost right now. Been going to church, trying to get closer to God and to my family. Maybe I'll try to sell software instead of working for a big company. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Its been years since the last time I slept after 11PM.

>Do you remember the good ol' days? Every day. I talk with some guys still. >Where have you been? Moved around. Made it, lost it, made it again. >Where are you going? Forward. I've made mistakes, will keep making them, I've always stood my ground and became who I wanted to be. Even if I'm alone again I'll keep moving forward. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? I wasn't. I haven't lost control of my life now.

Mark lied, people died

>>1744796 (OP) Time really does fly huh? Its Kanji/Tager Anon >Do you remember the good ol' days? Where have you been? Yeah, staying with my pops and staying up till the ass crack of the morning talking shit with yall. Now ive got a wife a two bedroom apartment and a full time job. Things have been going well on my end. And i hope things go well for the other folks of 4am. >Where are you going? Nowhere but up dude. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Im not because i cant be up that late. A man needs his beauty sleep too

>>1744796 hail satan huey did nothing wrong

Waiting for Mark to stop by and say hi. Where you at dude, don't tell us you forgot us.

Not vidya, check these dubs

>>1746765 >Do you remember? I remember. Some here were the only reason I have whatever it is that is worth anything. >Where are you going? Great places, I guess. I might even be in news stories you guys would see from now on, though you'll never know it was me. Fate is pretty dumb. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? I need the calories to work late. Ain't gonna do itself. >>1744964 I have gotten more insane and probably more retarded than this

>>1744915 Holy fuck man At least it still works, I guess? At least having a girlfriend can protect you from the aussie feds. Hope you're having a good run of it otherwise.

>>1746909 Not dubs.

>Do you remember the good ol' days? Yeah, I really miss them. Though above all I miss being young and naive. I had a fun time here, it painted my late teens in a very unique way. >Where have you been? Lived my life. I went to college. Dropped out of college. Made friends. Lost friends. Tried things. Gave up things. Went back to cuckchan, stopped going to imageboards as a whole. Was made aware of this thread of an old avatarfag I still talk to linking me here. >Where are you going? Life has a habit to keep going on even if you think it's over. So I just keep going trying to live it as best I can. For what it's worth. Trying new things, working jobs, following routes, reaching dead ends, walking onward. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Because I lost control of my life.

I'm still here, and I'm still vouching for you faggots to kill yourselves or to stick to a Trannycord of your choosing.

Can I participate even though I joined the imageboards as earlier as 2019 and it wasn't even 8chan? I do remember some good times, but even those weren't the same as the good times most of you had, as those were already fading away by the time I came around. ...I also remember the time an OC of mine became the queen of an entire board for a bit, that shit was fun.

>>1747131 Why not, man? Not like there are rules. Thinking about it, things actually sucked a lot back then and suck much less now, seemingly. Could just be the function of being raped by age.

When I was a kid I was poor and there was a forest next to my house. I was friends with everyone and we'd go throw open someone's front door and yell at them to come join us and we'd go play in the woods. One night in winter we were out being a pack of fucking goblins and this girl was getting out of her car, so we pounced on her and wrestled her to the ground, and she had this deadpan sort of reaction to it I still laugh at to this day, where she was just trying to crawl or stumble to her friends house with these goblins hanging off of her. A few years later the ps2 and xbox came out and our parents took an interest, so we had a stack of hand-me-down retro consoles and the backlog of the best era in gaming. The excitement I felt during that era for what would come next is something I still remember and can't imagine ever feeling again. After that my family moved twice and each time we got farther from the forest my life got worse -I think there's some profound fuckin lesson about the human condition. I didn't understand the phone-people and when we moved to the city the stasi-faculty would always come to my desk to talk about the wrongthink in my essays and white guilt and tell me to stop coming to school. >Where are you going? I been grinding. Everything is a blur. Feels like ten years ago was yesterday. I keep getting more distant, and I'm convinced everyone else is crazy, that friendship is a momentary illusion, even when I look at you guys now I just see that way of clinging to an illusion that makes me glad to be an outsider. Stopped using imageboards for the most part and started going through my backlog. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Because there is something in us like the drive of a fish jumping out of water that it can't survive in hopes of a miracle.

>>1748354 >even when I look at you guys now I just see that way of clinging to an illusion care to elaborate? :^)

So, what have you been doing the past ten years OP?

>>1748384 Yeah sure I'll be a huge faggot why not I love telling stories. When you gain control of your circumstances imagination can substitute for the gratification of real action and struggle, so you lose touch with reality and get better at denying it. People leave anything and everything unsaid, because they know it's a stronger position to tar and feather you every inch of the way if you try to drag acknowledgement of fundamental reality out of them. Like, "I do my own laundry, I always put it in the same place, it's been a decade and you're still taking my underwear. Not even some of it, ALL OF IT. No, look. See this? Stop taking it." -as they do their best samuel johnson impression, still confident that if they don't hold themselves accountable no one will. Meeting up with friends is harder than moving mountains, not because there isn't time, but because we're dungeon slime. I realized people who live this way lose the ability to understand themselves or others, so they can't recognize the voice telling them stories as distinct from their own thoughts, or its assertions from reality. I can hear it too when I let myself be stupid. So they focus on [appearance? is not the right word]. Fail the highjump and suddenly a goblin horde of fat kids condense like rain to trip over the bar trying to make it big, cause their mental scoreboard is their measure of happiness. It's not reality, most things aren't, but it's binding -people try to realize their ideal based on present circumstance, but without internal stability they can't tell when they're rejecting its realization to protect its enshrinement. So, I speak from ignorance, but when I see people assign greater familiarity than is supported by understanding I feel sad, like a man who must tell the boy with no legs that he can't join the NFL, except the subject is a teary eyed old man sick of his family life who wants to start a biker gang with someone he barely knows and couldn't stand if he did. That said I spoke offhandedly, skimming the thread there's no one here trying to build a founding cultural myth about purple shalebars so my well-honed bullshit detector is silent. See I barely answered your question.

>>1748873 Someone steals your underwear? All of it? Who?

>>1749100 cherish the mystery

>>1744796 >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding?

>>1744796 10 years of life behaving like a brat,there more it keeps behaving badly the more i try to tame it

I'm still here (and will always be, no matter how much Mark shits himself about it) and GigaMaidens still isn't out.

Went by Coey back when, dunno if anyone remembers me 'cuz I was always anonymous in the threads, but I would talk about tulpa shit with the waifubros from time to time in the later threads. My tulpa's name was Sunshine if that rings any bells. Also talked about retro vidya a bit, had a berry red GBC I bought around the time I was showing off in a thread once. >>1744796 >Where have you been? Still chillin' online. Left 8chan when it died. Was the board owner of /s8s/ though I only ever went by "the webmasterman" back when, if anyone remembers. Went back to 4chan for a little, fell out of 4chan when /v/ was loaded with nothing but Smash rosterfagging in 2018 and 2019. Came back around in later years and it's been alright but the amount of politics ain't fun. Been mostly hanging out in Discord with my friends, many from 4am back when. Met Smokes and Yooey irl this year which still makes me happy whenever I think about it, awesome people. I'm still as happy as I was back when so I've mostly just been having fun and learning to appreciate the power you have as a shitposter when the internet is so vitriolic and angry these days, haha. >Where are you going? My back is messed up pretty bad so I'm disabled and do part time work from home, been slowly trying to get myself together to figure out an actual career potentially. Hoping to get out and explore the world on my motorcycle, find a job at some point, and just enjoy the next however many decades of my life. The world is beautiful despite everything and I feel like I have myself really figured out at this point, emotionally. I don't think I'm ever gonna be going too far though, hanging online with my buddies is really fun, so I'm not going anywhere. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Because I have control of my life and I'm gonna use it to make chocolate pudding at four in the morning. Shit's good. Take care of yourselves everyone. No matter how doom and gloom people get, or how dark things may seem, there's beauty out there waiting for you to find it. You just need an adventurer's heart and that urge to break away and hunt - have that, and you'll always find your way out.

>>1744796 >Do you remember the good ol' days? Yes. It's surreal to see some of these screencaps and see a post of two or mine and I kind of remember posting it and the place I was in life at that time. It feels like I blinked and years passed. >Where have you been? Being a NEET as I was before, just with less people to talk to. So it's disappointing. I went to college at least but I'm back doing nothing. >Where are you going? Looking for a job that isn't burger flipping (but McDonalds and 20 other fast food places denied me anyway) >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Avoiding putting time into myself because I just want the slight dopamine of reading threads like this.

Been here since the first exodus. Stopped coming by around 2020, I think, because the website died for a few weeks and I didn't know of any bunkers, so I stopped using imageboards altogether. Found you fags again around 2 or 3 years ago, which made me happy, but I do miss the speed and topic coverage that we had in the old times, and sometimes it gets too boring to be just talking shit on the /gg/ thread. I always leave random comment here and there on subjects that interest me, but that's about it. I've noticed that anyone that posts with a LoGH image is usually right, so keep that as an interesting random observation. :^) but unironically

>Do you remember the good ol' days? I see my OC reposted and screencaps of my posts every now and then. >where have you been? On and off the internet. With how much content has been getting lost to time on the net, I'm hoping to still get what interests me downloaded before it disappears or dwindles to 0 seeds >Where are you going? Don't know. >Why are you awake at four in the morning making chocolate pudding? Cause I lost control of my life
