So I started check out this board every so often and everytime I come on I get scared, (I get scared very easily, so like a picture of something down the stairs scares me) but anyway, how do you guys not get spooked? Are you just so used to it? For me I get spooked because the things that happened might be real.
>>17855951
embrace the spook. the fact that they might be real is whats exciting
>>17855951
So why the hell do you even come here?
>>17855966
because its addicting :P
>>17855951
Beyond a certain point of spook, you start to get fear capped and can't get any more afraid without rolling back 'round into bravery.
>>17855951
I don't really frighten much at all. I'll jump when I'm surprised, but that's more a basic instinct than a real conscious spook. I like the creepy/paranormal/otherworldly/supernatural/unnatural just in general.
>>17855951
My interests blinds me from the actual horror of things
>>17855951
I don't get scared because most of the stuff on this board is pants on head retarded.
But it is fun to read sometimes
>>17855951
you think the stuff here is spooky? It's mediocre at best. /x/ used to be way better now it's just regurgitated pasta that's not scary anymore
>>17855951
Some fear the unknown but my drive to discover and conquer is too strong. In other words I'm too American to get spooped.
>>17856005
Pretty much
>>17855951
In my opinion once you learn to accept and fear real life dangers trivial spooks that were to stimulate and train the fear center in your brain stop being relevant.
>>17856122
*were used to
>>17855951
When I was just a little faggot I spooped myself out so bad all the time, I now can't get an adrenaline rush unless I jump out of a plane.
>>17855951
Summerfag detected.
Don't worry kid, when school starts up again you'll be fine.
>>17855951
You need to go for longs walks alone at 3:00 AM ...This will help build Spook Resistance .
>>17855951
As I walk through the valley of death I shall fear no evil cause IM THE BADDEST MOTHERFUCKER IN THAT VALLEY!!!
>>17855951
cuz none of it is real its just rpfags being rpfags
/x/ changes you
>>17855951
I dare you come on here on a Friday night while peaking on 25i! You will never be the same!
>>17855951
After countless nights browsing /x/ only to get paranoid and have absolutely nothing happen, you build a resistance to spook.
>>17857427
>25i
faggot
>>17857497
This. Nonexperience is as much of a teacher as experience is. Or maybe slightly less if your lack of experience makes you a doubty fuck, but yeah.
>>17855951
I just don't think about too strongly. When I'm feeling sensitive I avoid this place like the plague because no one is trying to get actually scared for no reason
>why are you?
Otherwise I just come here for paranormal stuff, not spoops.
After a few decades, spoopy stuff just isn't spoopy anymore.
It's just normal everyday shit at that point.
>>17856058
nice meme
I get spooked but I can't stop looking for the spooks because spooky shit is always interesting to me, ya know? I need to know more, man. As a kid, I would look up scary shit about aliens even though I would have nightmares. Aliens were my biggest interest but my biggest fear too. I'll still have nightmares sometimes but I'm not terrified of them anymore. It's actually a lot harder to scare me now. The last time I got scared during a horror film, it was a quick scene I think. Can't even remember it well enough. Even still, every now and then I'll be scrolling /x/ at night, alone, and I'll have to stop if something really strikes that fear chord in me. I get back to it once the sun comes up, of course. Hail dat safe, delicious sunlight
>>17855951
I do not become scare because glorious T-34 protect me at all times! Soviet industries conquers all!
>>17855951
is this bait or are you a woman
>>17855951
I'm actually a skeleton myself. So this place is like a second home to me.
>>17855951
Nothing wrong with being scared. It's a natural ability that gives your body that extra "umph" to get away from danger. Just embrace it and enjoy the adrenaline fix.
>>17855951
Nothing on here, or in a movie, or in a game is going to spoop me because I've searched all three places looking for the spoopiest stuff I can find. I used to sneak my mom's horror movies when she was asleep and built up a fascination with horror, so since I was a kid until now I've spent my life desensitizing myself to horror.
On the other hand, I have severe social anxiety and even thinking about social spotlights, social pressure, or hostile confrontation makes my heart race and my body shake.
Its quite annoying actually.
The way the world is we gonna need a spook to stop us soon.
>>17858028
Most produced tank in the world. Shit if I was a t-34 I would never be scared
>>17855951
For one, everything on this site is 90% opinionated bullshit and 10% opinionated legit things. For /x/ in particular, the percentages changes to 99/1, being the 1% opinionated inconclusive experiences.
And for last, because one has to be 18+ in order to browse 4chan.
>>17856006
Wrong answer.
>>17856006
This
And that's why I didn't become a sailor. That bottomless pit with low visibility that is the ocean just scares me to death. Things, be it a whale or a ship, coming ominously out of the blurry fogginess is creepy beyond comparison.
>>17855951
Every time I come here I experience sadness but not fear - because of so many sad retards believing so much bullshit.
>>17857509
agreed
>>17855951
because I'm an ATHEIST
Ghosts and Gods don't mean a shit
>>17855951
I don't get spooked unless I am reading shit for hours on hours.
Unless it happens to me personally I don't get scared easily. I watched 6 hrs of ghost adventures and went to bed right after and slept like a baby.
>>17855951
people post the same fucking shit every thread so we don't get so spooked anymore
Because when you learn to accept all possibilities as potential outcomes...surprises come about as often as blood moons.
>>17855951
I still get spooked by things here every once in a while, like from particularly creepy youtubes of ghost evidence, and in real life I can be spooked.
But the more common feeling from paranormal stuff is fascination and comfy. Just scrolling through the catalog seeing all the pictures and discussions about interesting things is the best, even if it's slow sometimes.
Things are actually interesting in the fringe world. I love conspiracy theories, cryptozoology, spirituality, ghost stuff, all of it. Normal things are okay, I like lots of other boards and interests but nothing compares to the paranormal.
>>17856058
I agree, I used to get spooped, now its all bullshit
>all these poor jaded souls
We just need a field trip to a haunted location. That will fix everything.
Fear is not you. Do not let emotions control you. Say you study graphic design and you understand how people make spooky images it helps once you realize what you are fearful of can not hurt you because you are light there is nothing to fear. Where there is darkness there is also light there is good and bad in everything do not see things as just good or bad or look for the bad take things as neutral.
>>17856006
Pretty much this. 99% of this board is role play faggotry.
>>17856006
The mark on that dog's chest looks like a squirrel.
>>17863327
>why you spoop me
>>17856006
greentext threads are good for late night spooking
>>17858464
Whales are nearly the only things irl that petrify me.
