I use various websites such as ebay, duckduckgo, and myanimelist. I know you probably think internet users are bad but I swear I'm one of the good ones. I currently make around $0k per year on my internet activities so it's more like a service I'm providing all of you.

Did you ask your parents permission before logging on?

[–] axont@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago

I asked a random adult and I think that also counts

Hi,

Civility from Hexbear.net here, thanks for your time.

I have three questions:

  1. How did you get your start as an internet user?

  2. What's the most internet you've ever used in one day?

  3. What advice would you give all the aspiring young internet users on hexbear.net?

you're so polite, it's really an inspiration to the rest of us about the value of... you

if only landlords and tenants could be nice to each other like this

[–] axont@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)
  1. I just believed in myself and never gave up

  2. I think about 14 grams

  3. Don't use the Internet for hentai. It's bad.

[–] Civility@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago

Inspiring!

@axont@hexbear.net thanks again.

[–] axont@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

My dad has taken a hand to carving a canoe in the garage. It's pretty cool

[–] miz@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

you know how some people take the air out of the room? this lil fella puts air into the room

[–] Rom@hexbear.net 2 points 3 days ago

Just like me, except with farts

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A friend to all and champion of the weak

[–] lib1@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago

So a cult leader

[–] axont@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You have betrayed my trust

[–] daniyeg@hexbear.net 1 points 3 days ago

it was either that or a rickroll, and i went with the better option.

What are the good websites I may not know of?

I use, like, three.

I hear there’s more

[–] axont@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I quite enjoy one called hexbear

[–] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 2 points 3 days ago

Is that some kind of gay polycule thing?

[–] gueybana@hexbear.net 1 points 3 days ago

That’s so gay lmao

[–] Lussy@hexbear.net 1 points 3 days ago

Sounds gay as fuck

[–] buh@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

are you planning on putting a tariff on these sites you have a trade imbalance with?

[–] axont@hexbear.net 3 points 3 days ago

I'm gonna go to their houses and do a real life ddos

[–] lib1@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I hear Internet users worship Satan. Is this true?

[–] axont@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago

No no we worship satin

[–] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago

I'm also curious about this. I heard some of them worship the Great Satan even.

I have heard about harmful beings called graymers living on the internet who are called chugs for chugging venomous green liquid that enhances. I have heard that they will hurt anyone awake on the internet by circling and spitting face melting icky liquid on them. How could you protect yourself from these beings? Please stay safe

[–] jsomae@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

what's the least website you use?

[–] axont@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago

there's apparently a website that summons a bird to shit on your head, so I don't use that one

[–] BoxedFenders@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You can't just make these bold claims without providing proof. We're really supposed to believe you're an internet user on your word alone?

[–] axont@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

i'm friends with Myspace Tom

[–] SootySootySoot@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm actually a bit of an internet using hobbyist myself. How do you deal with all the people who actually don't thank/recognise us for the services we provide to the community, and instead say mean things?

[–] axont@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

no one has ever said anything mean about me

[–] SootySootySoot@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I exude a pleasant aroma
