Being "first" is seen as some tiny claim-to-fame or immortalisation. It'll never burn out. It's a collective mindset.

I'm not sure I'd go as far as calling it immature, but broadly speaking, yes. Once the novelty has worn off, you realise that it's utterly meaningless. There are far easier and better ways to mark your place on Earth.

Well, I'm all for letting immaturity to blossom. The world would be boring without it.

People trying to claim supposed 'first fame' just look ignorant to me. Meh.

I don't like this title.
For anyone wondering, I joined this website during my edgy teenage years. I made a lot of dumb, awkward posts, flip-flopped between various extreme ideologies, and just generally embarrassed myself. I denounce a sizable amount of my past posts. I am no longer active on NationStates and this nation/account is no longer used.

Well that goes without saying, "fandumb" runs wild there. IT doesn't help there is no way to downvote below zero so no one ever gets the feedback that what they say is bad.

There are a pair of zultanite earrings in a jewelers I walked past. Damn my magpie nature, I almost did the full on face smoosh against the window to stare at it properly.

Now to wait for my partner to mess up enough to have to bribe me with shinies.

It's more a lack of ambition. I'm sure we've all got some non-existent claim-to-fame we thought was more important at the time. It's part of growing up. I once got a mention in a well known gamer blog. I care not, now. Once the novelty wears off, you lose interest.
