Is it just me or does it feel like everyone here is either a larp or trolling?
I've read all the things for newbies coming over, I am well aware it is a completely different environment over here, and quite frankly happy this outlet is more open and accepting of the sarcasm and profanity than what GA was.
However, I guess just being new, it is hard for me discern, who is being genuine, who is trolling the fuck out of people, and who is just a larp ai or what have you?
Does it get easier? I assume it will?
Bring on the trolling comments, I am ready.

I can tell you're from reddit because your title begins with "So, ...".
100% Soy.

I apologize, I did not realize people on Voat do not use the word So. That's my b
Next time I'll be sure to start off with 'well' or 'hmmm', or is that even more 100% soy?

I should clarify: it's not a reddit vs voat thing, but reddit is the home of the soy so it's a natural connection to make.
Starting a post "So..." indicates a general lack of self confidence. An attempt to be overly casual such such that one can be "heard" without appearing to be asserting oneself. The use of "So.." makes the post appear as a continuation of an already existent conversation. This is intentional, subconscious or otherwise, because the idea of starting a new conversation and owning it gives the soys some anxiety. If it all goes south they can tell themselves"Oh, I was just adding my voice to the conversation" and mitigate some of those feelings of failure. Soys need to be able to blend into the background at a moments notice, lest they stand out in any way. "So..." is a defense mechanism. A fear of being judged. A weakness of character.
Soyboys must become aware of their deficiencies so they can work on them and improve the overall quality of men everywhere. One way to do this is to shittalk them on the internet.

I was told to not get your panties in a wad on here because shit talking is normal, I was trying to adapt, but you clearly didn't get it. I really don't care what you have to say about me saying 'So'
