Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Most young dudes who subscribe to "stoicism" think it means getting a square jaw from the square jaw store and then not showing happiness about anything. Like they already do, but now with self-help terminology backing it.

I'd love to see a new movement where guys learn to express overwhelming joy at small things in life and can be genuine with each other about literally anything rather than making every moment together the Sarcasm Olympics.
