Analogy wise, think of a clown at the clubs moving softly to the music with his little alcohol bottle taking pictures acting drunk. Just don't even bother showing up and just stay indoors.

Everything has to be loud/in your face or it just looks retarded. Just look at MTV, there's no Steveo stapling his buttcheeks together, now just some clowns explaining a makeup tutorial talking soft.

[QUOTE=eod8989 post_id=1666817163]Social media may have caused some kind of autism because i know for a fact people were more random pre 2013. You could talk about anything with anyone if you went out. Nowadays you'll just get a bunch of awkwardness and pauses and chit. People don't talk to people anymore unless they really know them well. At least people my age don't. Yeah people would literally just stand around for an hour talking music/bands or jamming out in the parking lot/car. Music was always being discussed. Now it's never. WTF happened.

Yep skateboarding culture doesn't exist anymore either. Used to see so many dudes that skated back in the day and they'd all listen to chit like Offspring, Hawthorne Heights, Sum41. Now nothing.

Yeah people all buy the same cars now. SUV's and trucks. But the fast and the furious and Pimp My Ride car culture now is non existent. Our cars were our lives back in the day man.

This was how your average dude acted 24/7 pre 2013. Random and animated af. This was the energy that i remember everywhere. This video is from 2006. You have to look at the youtube vault to find it because it doesn't exist anywhere anymore.

[youtube]bWKJOK874U0[/youube][/QUOTE]Yeah spot on about social media causing it. It's very strange aswell since only a few people slipped through the cracks in terms of talking normally with one another. I can mention a ton of scenarios where clowns are stumble and fumble in a basic hello how are you situation. It's shouldn't be like that as an adult.

It's kind of upsetting actually. My grandparents still have their giant collection of records with insanely expensive record players. A generation down would be me/my parents with cds and all the epic cover art. Now what? Just some ***got ass downloaded bytes? Even worse, online libraries, lol. Pathetic I swear.

Weird how cultures have disappeared. The variety of people, I swear. It was amazing to see pre 2010. How everyone got on with eachother. So many dead forums/communities.

Yeah, guys would just hang out by the garage aswell. Conversations regular guys now wouldn't even understand. There's so many things smaller communities that have disappeared in the car world. I remember there were crazy Japanese cars with giant spoilers, forgot what they were called. Do u remember? Like this. Japanese ricer cars lol.

[img]https://imgur.com/MmAFwXM.jpg[/img]

Crazy how you can see it in the footage, everyone can still see it which is strange. Nobody even notices the shift in body language. I guess stuff was taught differently then. Look at the rock talking **** to "trash whores". Funniest thing ever lol.

Now that everything possible has happened, what more can release really? That's why I think stuff is so staggered/weird now because stuff is long past it's expiry. Fresh ideas are gone, e.g, a guitar riff. Impossible to not plagiarise in 2022. Look at music/tv/celebrities or anything at all, it's been recycled for no reason with crappier bender versions of the pre 2011 stuff. Pathetic. Can't even name 3 songs now, whereas pre 2012 I knew the full charts/albums.

Pirating stuff doesn't feel the same since internet is now super fast. Sports aren't groundbreaking. Everything is behind a pay wall.

"My outer appearance was poor, but in this way my inner world became richer than anyone else's. Was it not natural that a young boy who suffered from an indelible drawback like mine should have come to think that he was a secretly chosen being? I felt as though somewhere in this world a mission awaited me of which I myself still knew nothing." --Yukio Mishima

Nobody cares though. People have completely lost recollection of the pre 2012 world somehow. The internet already socially engineered a new consciousness lol.

The thing is, basically every guy before 2010 was a tough guy. Everyone had popped collars, gel spiked out hair and was in your face. The guys that weren't aggressive seemed pretty normal aswell. Not to even mention the gym/mma/athletic ones who were even more pumped on adrenaline.

Yeah I don't get that. Even though ***gots being upset over confrontation is a good thing for me, it isn't. There's just nobody to hang out with without being embarrassed of their presence. I say hello, they're just awkwardly bursting to talk about social media, TV, politics or some gay nonsense. Not to mention their pathetic showing ankles designer nerdy attire guys have got going on now.

Yeah the average guy back then was masculine and had swag now they are feminized

That video I posted is the perfect example just cool dudes with great social skills talking about playing guitar

Nowadays dudes would just be sitting there awkwardly talking about ig followers they wouldn't have a quarter of the charisma they had

I agree. However 2010 puts it at a point in time where the 2000s has already existed. The time apart isn't so much which means the 2000s culture is still prevalent. I remember saying before that I'd want to be born in 1987, 15 in 2000, 19 in 2000 and 19 in 2010, then dead at around 20 in 2013. So yeah, lol!

Stuff looked a lot cooler pre 2005, but I do like some of the stuff that came out in 2010. Plus, pre 2010 is the 2000s.

Oh, I thought u were going to link this thread about the rise of phones.
https://forum.obnoxiousbrutes.com/showt...hp?t=181667803

I'll check that out though, sounds interesting, thanks. I dunno about creativity and imagination, on ******** every ad is about that crap. Coined term being innovate.

I did actually make a rather comprehensive thread on this **** a while ago.

Yeah exactly, I can understand how guys would come to that conclusion in dressing/acting the way they did pre 2010. But now, I don't understand. It's like a blatant regression in every aspect on what it takes to be a guy lol.

Yeah, they're a product of their time. Being goofy and talking smack to eachother was normal and that's how friends are. No script/bullcrap editing. Actually, have u got any other videos of this older era stuff, seeing how normal people were is refreshing.

This footage here is amazing aswell.



Just so epic, would definitely hang out with this guy. Nobody told him to talk like that, that's just him speaking his mind.


I just don't get why guys all look the same now, same hair, same clothes and they're all on their phones 24/7. 0 personalities and giant pussies. They all have this scriped robotic response. Such retards I swear.

Yeah the robotic behavior is the weirdest chit considering your average guy 10 years ago was the complete opposite. High strung, random, was loud and obnoxious i just don't understand how it came to this. Being loud and random should be the default if a group of guys are in a room. You never see it anymore. And yeah everyone looks the same now you used to literally see groups of different sub cultures any place you went. I could tell if someone skated or listened to metal just by how they looked. You could tell if someone lifted or played sports too if they had a military cut or wore windbreaker clothing. You literally never see it anymore.

Exactly, it was common to be high octane like 24/7, people just looked like they had more life in them. Guys catcalling women and trash talking. Just a perfect equilibrium. People don't even enjoy themselves let alone have enough power to hang out with new people. Everyone just looked happy before aswell.

Just look at the amazing energy of this video. Watching this as a spectator amongst the energised crowd would be like no other experience. Looks insanely badass unlike the fragile weird crap we have now.



I remember when they got rid of the Extreme sports channel on 419 (Sky TV). It was pretty sad.

Yeah good point and on the other end of the spectrum you had these thug looking guys who were just incredibly kind and unassuming. Basically everyone now is in the same band/caliber of person, no end to end variety like before, just social media formed lives. The variety now is just a joke, just nonsensical and they'd be the core of every joke had a random guy from pre 2010 spawned in here. The tough guys now are kitten nerdy clowns.

1983 was the pinnacle of human civilization.

It's been a steady systematic decline since then.

But 2010's is where it became unbearable.

Yeah dude i instantly recognized that CKY song in the video if a song like that came on back in the day you'd have a bunch of people just get up and start mosh dancing and acting like idiots to that riff. Didn't matter where you were either it was just the norm. Nowadays everyone listens to rap with the same song structure/beats. No originality at all. Here's another one where if it came on everyone would get up and start dancing.



Yeah dudes would just talk chit or debate each other for 2-3 hours straight then holler at some girls. Was just the norm. And nobody gave a fuk. Nowadays everyone would be too afraid to say anything and just go directly to their phone lmao.

But yeah all that extreme stuff died in like 2007 it used to be sports, wrestling, music, socializing etc anything really was just more in your face and cool back then. Idk how it came to this.

Yeah dudes would just talk chit or debate each other for 2-3 hours straight then holler at some girls. Was just the norm. And nobody gave a fuk. Nowadays everyone would be too afraid to say anything and just go directly to their phone lmao.

But yeah all that extreme stuff died in like 2007 it used to be sports, wrestling, music, socializing etc anything really was just more in your face and cool back then. Idk how it came to this.
Yeah!! That's why I linked that video, cky was sick. Just so hardcore and it synced well with xgames. If u look at any of the extreme sports compilations/slideshows from pre 2011, they're all on a similar caliber. Yeah that's right, a bunch of guys would just air guitar, yell and go crazy when these songs came on. Now guys just look like they're watching a wall in solitary confinement.

Yeah, I remember that. Music like that is considered a niche now whereas all guys had heard of that kind of music before. The variety of music just applied to everyone whether they were a college dropout, a woman, a businessman, a buff gym guy or whatever. Just look at us listening to Katy Perry and Cky. Other ends of the spectrum but it just works, that was common before, unheard of for the same person to like all genres now.

Looking back on it all, it is pretty surprising on how "in your face" stuff was. Like, the people developing anything at all in the 2000s were geniuses.

Check this out, pretty epic. Stuff like this would never surface now not that it would've even been created. Just insanely designed.



Yeah honestly I can hang out with anyone pre 2011, nerds, skaters, gym guys, fat people, old people etc, but the people in this video, just perfection. Why did they dissappear I swear. Coolest thing I have ever seen.



Honestly, I can't stand the boring ***gots now, ugly quiet insecure weirdos. These are the people I want to hang out with. I mean really, everyone in this video just looks insanely hot. Addicted to gym and just looking insane. Man, I missed out.

I dunno, what do u think? Stuff just isn't high octane anymore, I can't stand how boring and awkward people are now. So phone obsessed. Nobody to hang out with.

"My outer appearance was poor, but in this way my inner world became richer than anyone else's. Was it not natural that a young boy who suffered from an indelible drawback like mine should have come to think that he was a secretly chosen being? I felt as though somewhere in this world a mission awaited me of which I myself still knew nothing." --Yukio Mishima

What caused this? 10 years ago the average dude was pretty lean, athletic and loud most had some kind of physical hobbies too. Nowadays it's like 90% of dudes just decided to get fat and ldar. Total opposite of how men are supposed to be. And you're right so many are insecure and put zero effort into their appearance. Only maybe 20% of dudes do now. I have no idea how dudes can just eat and watch tv all day and rot.

It makes no sense. It's a guys instinct to have boundaries. You know, if you start talking about some ***got stuff like celebrity gossip, guys would step back and be like woah, that was some ***goty topics guys lol. Now, there's none of that. Guys now won't hesitate to talk about being gay, very strange anime talk, discussing weirdos on media platforms etc. Somethings gone wrong in people's heads I swear. As you said, nobody does physical hobbies. Just really lazy creepy ones like collecting doll figures at age 30?? It's all over Ebays front page so thereust be a demand. What happened to guys paintballing, doing mma, going fishing, travelling etc. Guys now are doing less than the bare minium in life somehow.

I mean, even the epic guys online how fizzled out. This guy just couldn't get cooler I swear. This guys body language aswell, it's just how guys were.



Then these 2, they were hyper aggressive like all the time. Those are proper guys. This video was funny cos of their slang talk/dumb intro, again, it's just how guys talked to eachother.



But now 1 hates women and the others are heavily into politics. Barely any lifting/guy talk going on.

You can't even say it's an age thing. They all started long after they were adults. It's an era thing.

I'm pretty shocked, never thought absolutely everyone would be oblivious, let alone have it happen right in front of me whilst the normal guys now are just huge pieces of junk with 0 actual skills that doesnt involve a screen.

Yeah there are literally no guys now like those old Hodgetwins videos. That was the standard guy in 2011. I have no idea what happened. That content can't even be on youtube now. Yeah notice they never once talk about something like weird anime, fortnite or marvel or anything like that it was just straight constructive/bro conversation. Dudes aren't constructive at all anymore it's just looking into a screen all day or preparing some video to post online.

Yeah a lot of friends back in the day played paintball that's just another example of the extreme sports people did. We were always outside doing stuff. Any screen time was reserved for the evening after we spent the whole day outside lifting or doing a bunch of chit.

MMA and boxing was big too. It still kind of is but i don't think it's as big as it was around 2011. I knew a few boxers and MMA fighters irl.

Idk man i'm just saying that back around 2012 there were legit none of these conversations about funko pops, marvel or anime and stuff like that going on. Even the biggest nerds were into cool stuff like Halo or metal and had cool personalities. The soy personality didn't even exist back then.

Yeah, the comments are pretty old as u can imagine, funny thing is that they're all just goofy people laughing with the video. Surprised their old videos are still up. Not to mention their videos were requests from the public which is proof that people were just laidback back then.

Exactly, I only mentioned the weird anime thing because it happened recently. He was recommending some animes as if I requested some animes at the gym. The guy listed like 3-4 telling me to watch with subtitles. I'm not sure why it happened. Just disappointed really, was waiting for the "hahaha" to say he's messing around as if you'd approach a fellow male at the gym talking about some creepy Japanese girl cover poster animes.

Yeah, basically everything has gotten camp/weird now. Like, Punkd being the original prank show when it was fun and games, then guys like Roman Atwood started making a career out of it, funny, but spoiling it. Now clowns are stretching garbage pranks like spilling water on a car seat for 35 minutes with over 20 million views. It's like everyone is brain dead just killing time.

Nerds were a minority before. Nerds now are everywhere and are evidently at the gym.

Exactly, guys going paintballing, watching nascars/monster jam, doing donuts/street racing etc was entry level stuff. Nobody was putting on a front, just doing cool stuff because why not.

There's just so much to do. I don't get how nobody does anything. Ask basically anyone what they've done this year and they'll just stumble and say "work" as a joke, it is true. I don't find that funny. Like just do anything. Ride a bike, walk a dog, anything lol.



Our history is insane, we were once spartans, hunting mamoths, conquering kingdoms, flying weaponised concords at the speed of sound, lean as the average male etc. Now guys are useless 30%bf complaining about gluten staring at phones.

Something definitely happened at around 2013.
