Red 3 400pg books in 3 days. I started reading harry potter in kindergarden. I have always been super socially awkward. never had a lot of friends and still dont. books were always my way of being normal.

Social awkwardness fades as you age. Adults tend to be less judgmental and you end up with plenty of friends that may not have been when you were a teenager. I have a few serious nerdball friends, like Pauly, Clint, Greg, Mikey, Mike, Bill, Kyle and Ryan. None of those dorks would have been cool enough for me 30 years ago :)

Pearl, thanks for that post, there's a lot of truth to that. I was the epitome of a nerd or geek back in school.

As I get older, I just don't care as much what other people think. I do what I want.

Hang in there Russ, you've got a lot of years ahead of you. The more people you meet with similar interests, the more true friends you'll find.

that does make me feel better. I dont care as much about what people think but i find that the more you don't care about someones opinions the more upset they become.  :-\ so i try to listen to another thing i read "give men your ear, not your mind. once you share your mind, it is no longer your own." :)

you guys are pretty cool. thanks.

As you age you appreciate a persons talents, honesty and kindness. Not so much the shoes they wear, their free throw percentage or what version iPhone they have in their face.


Sorry to have hi-jacked the thread guys. It was a good time to educate Russel the wrestling muscle.

Not exactly primitive but very well known, doubtlessly for a reason; Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. You get an insight into the thoughts and worries of a Roman emperor and above else a man who lived 1900 years ago, but dealt with the same basic problems inherent to human nature as we do today.

You cannot miss "cave of forgotten dreams" a 2013 documentary by Werner Herzog on chauvet cave (FR) where there are paintings dated 30k years

and if you read the previously mentioned "Shaman" you'll notice the matchings
