My sister has discovered in the last month a thing called AOL Messenger service. This is really annoying me because she is not using to talk ot people she already knows, but rather she is using it to meet new "guys" who want to have intercourse. This would not bother me so much if she were not tying up the phone line all so that nobody can call and keeping me off-line. I have a question. Just how pathetic do you have to be to sit around on the internet and talk about having sex with someone. (I don't mean bragging.) What annoys me is that she will talk to just about anyone who tries to contact her. I have seen several times where she was complaining because she had five or six conversations going on at once. I don't know why she won't make herself less accessible.
If she is not talking to anyone with her messenger service then she is playing Hearts at one of those free game sites. She spends hours playing. She will frequently play against only the computer. If she wants to do that then there are versions of Hearts that can be played without an internet connection. She whittles away the hours that she could be spending going out meeting real people whom she would know better are what they say they are. When I first started I would go into chat rooms and tell people that I was all sorts of things. They would believe me too. I would love to see their faces if they knew the truth. She is talking to guys that claim to be all over the world. That is unlikely because it would be 4:00 in the morning when she is talking to them. Who even knows if they are the age they say they are. She already had someone send her a picture of a guy that he only wishes he could be, and the police are cracking down on people arranging dates and discussing sexual matters with minors over the internet.
Let's face it. You would have to be a pretty pathetic loser to have to use the internet to meet people. I do not like chat rooms I find them boring. If I am going to make small talk I want it to be in person. Likewise, if I am going to have any intercourse I would rather have it in person. I guess some people are that sad that they need a crutch and paper mask like the internet to meet people. I for one don't want to risk meeting a wacko like myself and end up with a stalker or in jail. You can keep you stupid chat rooms. I will stick to forums and email for communication with others on the internet.
