I believe that introversion, like any other state of being, has it's
benefits and drawbacks.
Recently the opportunity to attend a high school reunion presented itself to
me, being the extrovert that I am, I was raring to go of course. The first
thing I noticed when I arrived, was that a particular clique, the geekiest,
shyest and most womanless girls in the school at the time had all manage to
get some form of wrist based RSI... I assume that this was because of too
much masturbation, rather than mouse use as apparently 5 of the 6 there had
no job for the past fifteen years. But it gets worse, I knew that they were
all ugly back then, but now it's just much much worse, all six of them are
still skinny and pale, three of them still have bad acne and I could see
that one even had 'backne' as I could see the giant pustules through the
business shirt he was so vainly wearing (pretending he had a job no doubt
*sigh*). I on the other hand, still have all my hair, a great social life,
pecks rivaled only by arnie.
I remember when I was still in school on the football team, despite my huge
popularity with all the women, and the teachers of the school giving me
special treatment despite flunking math and English classes, my ego was
constantly driven into the ground by these nerds (or geeks, whatever you
want to call them). They would call me things like 'beefcake' which would
really hurt me, I was so upset by their harsh words, but never spoke out, as
I was always threatened by them as they waved my ISP download record at
me... they somehow managed to procure it through something called 'hacking'.
Then like the very hammer of thor itself, the realization struck me.
Introverts/geeks/nerds peak early. They initially get the good grades in
school and get all the attention of the teachers, the academic credibility,
the good uni places while us extroverts are stuck with the scraps. It
occurred to me that this was because they spend a great deal of time
studying early. This inevitably involves reading a book at some point, or
maybe even dabbling in a computer or two (hence the geekity/nerdity!), this
kind of reckless studying obviously leads to mental burnout early, and this
is why most of them had no job.
Introverts think constantly, and we all know that thinking inevitably leads
to some kind of sleep disorder, lack of sleep then of course leads to
further mental issues down the road. I once saw a movie called 'Weird
Science' where the geeks in said film endeavored to create the 'perfect
woman' using a computer, I see this is typical of introverts, this is just
one of the many obsessions that this lack of sleep and social contact leads
to.
The kind of living that introverts engage in doesn't show up at an early
age. At first they look quite stable and calm, you really have to wait for
your forties or greater to see the change. Eventually an introvert will
become a nasty self centered creature capable of great harm. One of the
introverts there was bragging about having multiple online girlfriends, and
that they would all accuse him randomly of 'cheating' on them. Introverts
are irresistible to women over the internet, they put on a show of being
some kind 6'2" manhunk and pass around fake pictures of themselves that they
cut out of a local shopping catalog. However, to an extrovert it appears
absurd and laughable. However, they are still the same kind of people they
were back then, arguing over something called 'java' and 'C++' but never
really talking to each other about anything really important, you know,
people issues. In short, they had not evolved, they were doing what they
wanted.
Introverts don't put no a gloss about their lives, like that there's nothing
wrong with them or something. Of course, you only need to be nosy and take
a small peak into them to see that this is not exactly the case. Their
wives are small elfin things, they obviously pick these kind of woman as
they find them so easy to dominate (we all know that geeks/nerds/introverts
and other assorted shy-folk are incapable of relating to women on equal
terms). Their jobs (if they have one) are boring, they spend their days
sitting in front of VDUs typing out line after line of code, or filling in
reports on some obscure thing or another. These geeks at the reunion has
pretty ordinary looking lives, not the sexy piece of meat I have.
Look at the sort of stereotypes that are the object of jest in comedy films.
There's the loud, overbearing, dumb extroverts that get nowhere in their
lives, and the introvert that eventually gets the hot chick. Not exactly
fair is it?
In addition, these introverts had more upsets than non-shy/introverted
people. Many of them had to deal with credit card fraud and a life of
loneliness where their only partner is their hand. These types of people
make terrible SOs, they are normally cold, introverted and don't give an
extrovert (at least) the loving that they require, they also get extremely
stroppy when interrupted, like your problems are important or something.
Divorce rates in most modern countries are at an all time high. Why is
this? Obviously it's because the shy/introverts/nerds/geeks of the world
leave all the women to be snapped up by alpha males, men who don't know how
to show a woman respect. It's for this reason that these types of people
are obviously the culprits for high divorce rates. There's a whole cast of
introverts out there, living by themselves on the dole and enjoying every
minute of it! They don't work, they get up when they want, they go to bed
when they want and are never nagged by a woman. Sure, we hear a little
bitterness from time to time about not having any female contact, but that's
their fault right? And now we have to suffer because of them.
Introverts often live at home until their early thirties, can you imagine
that? Living with your parents for that long must be a nightmare, the
reason for this is really quite simple; after they have attained their
expensive university degrees they are unable to find employment with them,
and they are too arrogant to work in a grocery store or something. So they
go on being unemployed for the large portion of their lives, getting nowhere
at all. Which do you think is smarter?
Another failing of introverts which facilitates their early peak is their
desire to be non-conformist. Sure, it looks kinda snazzy at the time 'hey,
i'm bucking the trend! I'm a introvert! look at me!' but we all know that
this is just a show. They always do something that noone else is doing,
except other introverts. How can these people go through their lives doing
something which noone else enjoys? Wouldn't that make someone incredibly
lonely? I enjoy going to the beach, clubbing, having a good time with my
friends and have a large savings account which I managed to procured through
years of hard work.
While there, one of the the introverted nerd-girls approached me. Back at
the time, I thought she was quite cute, but she wouldn't even look in my
direction due to my place on the football team, she probably though that I
was 'below' her massive level of intellect or something. But now I was on
top, as she told me she was also an unemployed school teacher. I have a
job, I've worked hard for years and now I'm comfortably well off. I
remember she had a geek boyfriend back then, some greasy haired, acne face
skinny boy, he had one of those Texas instruments calculators, she thought
that was so cool. I was just another beefcake to her.
But how times has changed. Her life had taken it's toll on her. She was
fat, and had diabetes (she told me all this) and I found her very
unattractive. She was now the type of female that aroused no chemistry in
me (because i found her ugly).
I guess some extroverts would imagine introverts having a whale of a time.
Living the high life with high paid positions at Microsoft or something,
driving around in their porches on the weekends picking up the chicks who
just want them for their money. But if you look at the beginning of my
post, you will see that I have done a thorough study on these issues and
that all is not as it seems. These guys that you envy will be jobless and
on the dole in a short amount of time, the employer that thinks you are such
a dumbarse will hire you in no time.
In short, it's life experience that will teach you these things, once you
have gotten out there, you will see that the introverts don't have it so
good, that their grades now count for nothing, and that their wives are fat
and ugly. Oh the tragedy of it all.

I can't believe what I've just read.....the sad thing is I think he's being serious...
