In the dimly lit chamber of an ancient online forum, a sense of foreboding hung heavy in the virtual air. The OP, shrouded in anonymity, ventured forth with a question that whispered of mystery and intrigue, yet provided no substance or context in return. The void of their initial post invited responses like specters from the netherworld, each one more lackluster than the last.
As the forum's digital denizens sensed the emptiness of the thread, they too descended into apathy, casting forth their own insipid remarks like ghostly apparitions haunting the conversation. The OP, oblivious to the curse they had unleashed, watched helplessly as the thread plunged into a desolate abyss.
But as the clock ticked relentlessly, an ominous realization gnawed at the OP's conscience. They sought to redeem their ill-fated creation, to infuse it with life and meaning, but it was already too late. As they frantically typed, their trembling hand inadvertently brushed against the ancient "sage" button β a cursed relic of the forum's dark past.
In that moment, a malevolent force was unleashed, and the thread descended further into chaos. Responses, now twisted and distorted, manifested as grotesque shadows of their former selves. The digital realm warped and writhed, its threads of logic unraveling like tattered cobwebs.
Desperation gripped the OP as they watched their creation crumble before their eyes, an unwitting summoner of horrors from the depths of the internet. With trembling fingers, they reached out in vain to save the thread, but the damage was done. The cursed sage had been knocked over, sealing the thread's fate forever in the darkest corners of the virtual domain.
I canβt decipher what the original story was.
I think its about writing a bad, low-effort post and then seeing it being taken over by shit posters.
This is great :D
