Crazy Stuff!! (Score 1)

I started getting on local BBS's when I was 13, eventually moving to newsgroups and the web (my first experience on the web was through Lynx!). My social skills through high schools may have suffered because of this (maybe I wouldn't have had any either way), but the online community gave me a place where I felt empowered, and because of this 'anti-social' behavior throughout my teenage years, I now have a beautiful wife and a wonderful son, I own my house and have a brand new car. I don't make a lot of money, but my wife doesn't have to work and can stay home and raise my child right, and I'm 21. I couldn't possibly ask for more at this point in my life, I'm now a functioning part of society whereas all the "Jocks, preps, and cheerleaders" from my high school days, who were graced with the social skills that are required to be popular in high school are working at part time entry level jobs and (maybe) going to college.

I could sit here and list all the positive impacts that this "social parricide" has had on my life, but I'm sure most of you understand. If anyone disagrees with me, please let me know...I'd love to debate this with someone!
