22 Things That Were Forever Ruined by the Internet
The internet has changed our lives in many ways, for better and for worse. Here are 23 things from AskReddit that the internet has unfortunately ruined for ever.
3.
I think the internet just amplified everything humans do, both good and bad.Like music? Here's a few million aspiring artists, some of which have a few dozen followers at most, have fun! Like art? Here's thousands of drawing every day. Like murdering people and lighting buildings on fire? Here's hundreds of tips on how to do it!
8.
Romantic relationships. People on social media spread oodles of toxicity and make you overthink every little thing, it’s insane.
14.
Pranks, pranks before were just jokes that we could play off, but now we got some random stuff all over the internet like "I PrAnKED mY BroTHer bY TakINg HiS AstHmA PiLLs | hE diEd! | CrazY PranK episOde #69420."
15.
Conspiracy theories. Used to be something interesting to hear or wonder about. You would randomly or rarely meet an actual conspiracy theorist or see one in a movie. Now everyone has an aunt or uncle or friend who has just gone off the deep end and it’s just sad.
18.
Magazines. I loved getting magazines in the mail. Couldn’t wait for Monday when time and Newsweek came.
19.
Almost everything honestly. Information is so easy to access now but also it’s just as easy to pump fake and incorrect information out just for likes/views.
22.
Encyclopedias. I would actually love some Encyclopedias from the 1800s and those gold-edged Encyclopedia Britannicas from the TV ads in the 1990s .
