Witty and sarcastic progression on NS

Since I joined NS I feel like I have improved my witty/sarcastic comebacks outside of NS. I find myself commenting on a lot more statuses on facebook with sarcasm only to be disappointed because they think I am serious.

Has anyone else noticed an increase in your comebacks from being on NS? I feel like sarcastic and witty remarks are everywhere on NS and seeing them so much has improved mined.


thread is pointless

i make a conscious effort to stop myself before i talk in meme speak in real life, like: 'wat' ' i know that feel' ' nou' etc. and although i do get urges to bust on people's fbook posts, i realize that i know them in real life and dont want to be a douche.

otherwise i dont think ns has really changed the way i speak in the real world

I now treat Facebook as though it is NS. Especially after I stopped caring what people would think of my replies. Most of the time it provides some good luls

I do the same thing, I hate kids who think real life is the internet. But on the other hand I fuck with people on facebook so hard, and in real life as well and everybody at my school loves me for it.

What the fuck is wrong with you people? You actually have to catch yourself in real life speaking like you do on the internet. Grow up, get a job, settle down and have kids already for fuck sake!

Either way you still have time to think about what your going to say. Being witty on the internet =/= being witty in real life

Lol half the people on here are still in HS/middle school. We dont need a bunch of 16 and preggers running around on NS.

And barto, agreed it is not the same thing, but the better you get the less time it takes you to think so your witty level increases.

haha that's my new favorite gif.

I've always been very sarcastic, it's weird because I'm less sarcastic on the internet than in real life.

omgorsh I comment so haphazardly on facebook, except more because I find I have more to say/things are funnier when I know the context that well... and it's ridiculous and I don't even realize it's not just what people do

I actually keep this on my iPad/iPhone so that when there's an akward situation in RL I can just whip one of them out and blast people with:

Dude can I get a kickstarter project?

I would easily pay $50-$100 for this shirt. Maybe more if it actually was legit real and I could broadcast memes to my T-Shirt at the click of a smarphone button.

I'm seriously drooling right now. This technology must exist.

No I mean this is a seriously fucking good idea. THe question is if the technology exists for flexible displays that are large enough, which don't cost $15k.

If that is out there, glue the motherfucker to a shirt, write some software and go for it. You don't need to be able to wash it either, I have one of those equalizer shirts, and it literally comes with instructions that say you just can't wash this thing ever.

Shit, we're pretty much waiting for this to be price point - http://www.dailytech.com/Cheap+Flexible+Display+Prototype+Unveiled+by+HP+and+Arizona+State/article13621.htm

I see Luminescent shirts everywhere. You always see them at the mall and shit. They look awful but have some kind of moving light up graphic... That is kind of what we need.

We just need it to be like a series of LEDs or whatever they do it by that can change and have some kind of internal chip to link it to the phone.

Need to find out how we can wash it. It would be worth more if it is washable.

FUCK we need to do this.

I find myself wanting to post hideously sarcastic comments about 99.8% of the time (the rest being actually constructive.) So I usually just end up posting very few, quality comments, while secretly mocking every thread subconsciously.

yeah this is the type of route we' may need to take. even if there is just a limited selection of memes/pictures and we find a way to scroll through them at the user's preference.


f-everyone's-i im taking screenshots of this thread so dont think about stealing our idea.

just make the display removable, that way you can take out the fancy part and wash the fabric part in the washing machine with your laundry

Always find myself saying "pics or it didnt happen" when i'm texting a girl who's in the bath or just got out the shower or something...

P.S that meme shirt is a good idea, but the screen would be heavy as fuck?

Thought about that. But the convince wouldnt be there you wanna be able to throw it on and be ready to go. Personally I wouldnt want a 2 piece shirt. Who knows tho, those young kids might be down to clown with it.

And PeteMez, hopefully we find the right technology where it is very light. Wouldnt be tossing a tablet on a tshirt and calling it innovative lol
