2017-07-04 at 12:48 PM UTCStop writing FAM in all caps. It's an abbreviation not an acronym. Write it thusly if you must: Fam. <- With a period. Like one would write Dr. <- With a period. Just don't all caps it FUCK.
Thank you. -
2017-07-04 at 1:09 PM UTCIt's more for exaggeration than proper typing but..I will take this into consideration.

It's because some people are so devoid of any kind of self sufficiency, they desperately need a feeling of belonging, of being a part of some kind of defined inner circle, of having even an imaginary support system. Lonely and desperate and attention-starved persons, they'll do and say anything to create "family" for themselves, even if it is all pretend and make-believe. It's a mental illness. And for them, a friendly acronym "normalizes" it, to say "It's OK. I'm OK. You're OK." -

That does not actually establish any kind of dependence, son. Let's stick to the facts here, OK? "Fam" has a lot more implication than, say, "Darkie". There are degrees of familiarity to consider here. Just because I call a member Darkie doesn't translate to I'm ready for a group hug, you know? -

smh tbh fam -
2017-07-04 at 5:31 PM UTCIt should be more a force than a fancy. For example: Temple of the Screaming Electron. The electron is screaming. It's not a family, it's a driving force, with a mission, with relevance, with electric attraction. The beauty of the baud. And you can belong, but not to some artificial bedtime story of a little dreamworld of butt-fuckers, where everyone hugs and gives the next guy a reach-around. What is so hard to understand about this concept?

Yeah i agree, totally. You can be close to people without being a fag about it. So why are we even having this conversation? You are ascribing more meaning to the word "fam" than there is in reality. When i say "bro" i don't literally mean brother. I mean "friend". -
