I don't have much experience besides messing around with Cleverbot as a kid. I've been hearing a bit about Replika and it seems interesting, I wanna hear some personal experiences first though.
I've seen some people "dating" their AI as a virtual gf or bf. Any miners ever done this?
If my crush rejects me this week I think I might give up on real men and just get an AI bf.

This is a general thread for imageboard discussion.

What other imageboards do you use? What is your favorite imageboard? And what imageboards did you used to use?

RIP, her and Jane Goodall so close together feels unreal

Not sure if this is the right board for this but have you ever been to the psych ward? What are your stories/experiences?
I went three times. In 2015 there was this one girl who constantly broke down over any little thing, one girl who cut herself with pencils and was very homicidal. Some gay dude with a bad temper. One time the girl with the anger issues and another girl were beefing so one girl was moved to the boys side and the other girl literally leaned over the desk to get to her. Apparently there was a lot of sexual shit going on between patients, even two dudes.

I don't remember much about my second time.

Third time in 2021 there was this old creepy guy who'd harass women and none of the staff would do anything, I think he was schizo too, at one point another guy got sick of it and fought him. There was one guy who was very nice but I found out he had charges for beating his wife.

Is it cringe to collect happy meal toys?

Post cool watches
looking at watches makes me relaxed

Is it wrong to avoid getting into relationships to preserve ignorance towards moids? Too many female counterparts have grown bitter and jaded with males through firsthand experience. At the very least, I can keep the joy of enjoying media with pure romance without experiencing animosity or becoming completely disillusioned. Or would the stark contrast make the escapism more enjoyable?

Would you prefer laying eggs to giving birth?

This thread is for Australia specific moid hating and general chat.
What’s the latest?
What’s on your mind anon?

The average egg laying hen suffers more than the average woman going through an unmedicated birth.

What’s the most painful thing that ever happened to you? Seriously take a moment and contemplate it, try, in as much detail as you can, to remember what it was like. Maybe, for a few of you it was childbirth, an experience which, when it takes place without anesthesia, is temporarily completely debilitating. Nothing other than the pain occupies the mind of the sufferer.

Perhaps it was getting a tattoo. Someone on Quora summarized the pain of getting a tattoo in the following way:

>They hurt.

>There are between one and 20 needles being poked through your skin hundreds of thousands of time in a single session. The number of needles will determine the type and intensity of pain. So expect it. The real question is how much will it hurt.

I’ve been quite lucky and never experienced any particularly severe pain. I can remember quite a few times I’ve had pretty intense pain, barely eating for two days, having a doctor press down on my infected finger until it popped when I was 8, having a very severe stomach ache, falling out of a treehouse (though remaining in the tree) and banging my chin on the side of it, but nothing has been that bad. I’d guess the worst experience of my life is a lot less painful than a wrist tattoo.

The most painful experience that most of us have ever had is classified as disabling pain. This is the sort of pain that’s bad enough that during it you can’t enjoy doing anything else, you can’t, for instance, enjoy a game of chess while giving birth, and that makes it impossible to focus on anything other than the pain. Examples of this kind of pain include a very painful fall, breaking a bone, burning yourself, giving birth, severe dog bites, getting a tattoo, kidney stones, and hemorrhoids.
