I imagine it serves a similar demographic to the anti-social individualists who lives an atheistic life of cold, calculated rationality and logic, looks with contempt and disdain upon those lesser-evolved sheeple with whom he is forced to share an overcrowded earth, and then logs onto Fark to tell everyone about it.

It would be hilarious if the post count on this thread stayed at 1.

Though now that I've posted... it is not to be.

You know how you can tell the extroverts at the NSA? They look at other people's shoes in the elevator.

Hermits United. We meet up every 10 years, swap stories about caves. It's good fun. For a Hermit.

Those aren't hermits. Those are socially-inept loners. There is a difference, and it's called "choice".

I vaguely recall a Monty Python sketch about this. Or did I dream it?

What a couple of retards. They're a couple, first of all, so neither one of them are "hermits."

From their perch in the woods, the Fredettes will continue their efforts as long as they can, finding a way to bring together those who have chosen to live apart.

Fark. It's just like all the other "individualists" who go out and try to be just like everybody else in their group. Christ on a pogo stick. I need something to express my rage at this.................

As a hermit just let me say this. You suck. You all suck and make me miserable when I'm around you.

Thank you for your time.

Somebody has to retrieve the weekly food and liquor. A slightly more gregarious hermitess makes it possible for the hermit to have no contact with the general population at all. Plus there's hermit sex!

Rugged individualists love their boundless freedom and chart their own way in life. It just happens to exactly coincide with the path charted by millions of other rugged freedom seekers.

It's not as uncommon as you think... Where I live, I can't see a house that's less than 2 miles away. But the 'neighbors' like to be 'neighborly' - we get together at each others houses periodically - and we have a 'home owners association' that mostly serves to help us coordinate snow plowing and trail grading, since there is no govt. provided trail maintenance of any kind.

It's sorta social. Demented and sad, but social.

I am an anti-social individualist who looks with contempt and disdain upon those lesser-evolved sheeple with whom I am forced to share an overcrowded earth, so I'm getting a kick out of this comment.

I'd be a hermit if I didn't have to live in this freaking city so that I could earn enough money to be a hermit. But it is this freaking city that made me want to be a hermit in the first place. Wait... Id I just walk in a circle?

I think they call that "masturbation"..

I do love you.

I'd invite you over to drink beer and make babies, but I'm engaged in cold, calculating, logical somethingorother right now. Being a hermit and all that.

I'm not a hermit, but I was president of the Anarchists' Club in high school.
