    I'm 30. I've been an 'adult' since I've had social media.

    I went looking through my old LJ for something sufficiently cringeworthy and didn't find anything that I hadn't deleted or locked that fit the bill.

    I did, however, find this, and it made my day. I must Evernote it at once.

    EDIT: Point being, social media has some awesome benefits as well.

    My old LJ is pretty bad but on the other hand before LJ I was regularly keeping a physical diary since I was 7 or 8 years old and some of that crap was pretty bad too.

    I rarely post overly personal information to social media. I use it mostly to discuss or link to stuff that interests me. My old LJ was mostly internet stuff/humor, politics, religion/atheism, and fantasy football. Obviously a lot has changed.

    There's certainly some cringe-worthy stuff, too, but not related to personal details. For instance, I remember when I was 12 at least once using the phrase "r0x0rz" in a non-ironic fashion.

    I deleted a lot of old angsty crap from my lj and my entire second lj account that was just horsetrout.

    The worst that's floating around now are old posts on here and any old AIM logs that Jason Lynch has that he consistently reminds me about.

    Going back through my LJ a few months ago, I surprisingly didn't hate myself. I still set everything to private though. My Facebook is also set to private, and I don't post much on other people's things because not enough people set theirs to private.

    Yet that doesn't stop me posting necrophilia jokes on FB.
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    Every year I go through and delete all of my embarrassing LJ entries which is usually all of them.
