* I don't think trolling or Poe's Satire is really proper on HN.

Sorry to upset you, I was being overdramatic. My goal was to convey how powerless I feel when scrolling through infinite amounts of creative, funny, or intelligent content that I can't recreate at all in reality. However, I am slowly learning how to use the Internet as healthy inspiration rather than as a way to escape my own insecurities and shortcomings.
