...is something I've often considered, because I think I'd be good at it due to really liking solitude. Anyone got any opinions?

At all?

Sounds great. Problem is re-integrating ito society when you've lost all social skills, assuming you might want to sometime. Then again, you might never want to.

I want to sometimes. People just annoy me in a way that trees NEVER do. If my commune doesn't work, I will be a hermit instead.

like it would be different! though one time when I was in enforced solitude for a few months, I ... you don't wanna! But then I guess there's a big difference between choosing to be a hermit and knowing you could go back to society at any time, and not being able to go there ...

suddenly a hermitage doesn't seem like such a bad thing... (he says as tonite visions of anthrax clouds wafting across the atlantic fill his dreams...)

twelve years pass...

"For nearly thirty years, a phantom haunted the woods of Central Maine. Unseen and unknown, he lived in secret, creeping into homes in the dead of night and surviving on what he could steal. To the spooked locals, he became a legend—or maybe a myth. They wondered how he could possibly be real. Until one day last year, the hermit came out of the forest."

"I don't like what I see in the society I'm about to enter. I don't think I'm going to fit in. It's too loud. Too colorful. The lack of aesthetics. The crudeness. The inanities. The trivia."

you just had to go off on your own and revive an unoccupied thread, didn't you
