>>17762672Idk DDR is probably literally the only reason to go out I imagine a home ddr setup is expensive.
the issue with that is people have some hyper-self-awareness where they think everything fun is cringe. I wrote another post on that, it's mostly related to the internet but it affects psychology in general. I'll paste it here:
The internet making everything permanent and attached to your real life identity made people hyper- self aware.
Until normies flooded the internet it was the total inverse, more sincere than real life, everyone spoke their minds, everyone was a nerd so everyone belonged.
Since normies flooded with facebook (myspace was still a bit of a filter) and phones, everything is attached to your real life identity, people no longer express themselves with OC and past non-hyper-self-aware OC is looked at as "cringe" or "tryhard." Sites that are popular now like reddit outright punish you for for speaking your mind. Any zoomer who doesn't type in ebonics gets the nerd emoji (on the internet which was once all nerds). Stating an opinion needs to be prefixed and /s added at the end of sarcasm because normies never adopted internet etiquette. It's no longer escapism as real life issues are everywhere. No fun allowed.
Now that everyone's chronically on the internet, instead of being influenced by friend groups and subcultures, everyone's influenced by the overall nu-internet culture. So everyone's a fucked up mishmash of nerd and normie jock bully.
