When I joined I was just beginning to become pessimistic. I hated where I lived (which is where I still am), but it didn't get to me nearly to such a degree as it does now. I played videogames on a normal basis still, and I really wasn't very political at all, though I cared about peoples' feelings and their well being...

Now I almost don't play videogames. I get far too pissed off by politics to not pay attention to them. I'm extremely pessimistic. I'm always depressed. I hate where I live to such a degree that I'd rather the world blow up so this place would no longer exsist than live another 5 minutes with this place still exsisting. I've basically forgotten how to socialize with other human beings in person. I have basically no hobbies, and all I do is go to school (college now) and waste time at home on my computer.

Of course, that's just most of what's changed, and I wouldn't say EoFF has influenced any of it (well, except my increased attraction to posting here).
