Who will disconnect first (part 2/2)

It feels strange looking through my chat with Chris for the purpose of deciding what I want to include from it in this post. I’m not sure what to include. The conversation I had with him was different than the one I had with Marcos. It definitely was shorter and developed quicker. At first, I didn't think there was a chance that I wouldn't get disconnected right away by Chris. I had good reason to feel that way, based on what I saw and have seen.

Like I mentioned in my last post, people spam the fuck out of the chats. The conversation with Chris started out no different. But, there was a strange bit at the end of his spam. I didn't realize the potential this spam had for a conversation until I reread it again:
 
Stranger: fooling around with horny puberty guys on omegle that just want to see some girls nudes trying to get my nonexistent kik account
 
The possible conversation starting word here is "nonexistent". Very clever, Chris. Nevermind what Kik is. If you use Omegle you may use Kik, but if you don't know what it is, it doesn't matter.
 
 
When people spam, I like to spam right back with a link to this blog just for the hell of it. So, that's what I did. I sent a link to my blog and said "read" "it's good for you."
 
Then, after I was sure to be disconnected, I quickly received a few questions from Chris. "What is that?" "Why do you want random people to read it?" "Do you think this might be something for me specifically?"
 
I was very taken aback. I did not think I was going to receive these questions from Chris, but after I did, I hoped he was a girl. I of course had my doubts and of course he turned out to be a guy. I answered the questions as honestly as I could. I said that I liked writing and wanted to share my blog. I said that I feel a connection to the characters and authors in the books I read, and how I wanted to sort of do the same with my blog.
 
Now that I'm writing this and referring back to the chat log with Chris, I can already tell that this post is going to turn out worse than if I simply c/p'd the chat log. Despite this, I don't think anyone would want to spend the time reading the entire chat log. Chris was the inspiration behind my asking Marcos to write about him. I met Marcos long before I started this blog and I talked to Chris on Omegle about a week ago.  
 
I've read the chat log with Chris a few times now and, like I said earlier, I'm not sure what to include. Chris and I's chat was good conversation between two strangers. I told Chris I was going to write a post about him, so I'm doing it.
 
I remember getting the feeling I was chatting with myself at certain points. Chris is better educated than Marcos. English, his second language behind German, is extremely good. I told him at one point that he might know the English language better than I do. He even says "In the internet". Isn't that the correct usage?
 
I couldn't help but get the feeling that Chris was my long lost European brother. We were in the same position, it felt like. The feelings we shared about what irritates us about things were similar. I could elaborate more on this or that, which might make this post more interesting, but I don't feel like it. I won't write another post about an Omegle chat, I don't think.
 
So, how do you decide who disconnects first? I have no idea, go and ask Chris the same thing. Neither of us wanted to disconnect first, though Chris pointed out that it was 4:30am in Germany. Chris said he is "Never the one to disconnect first", another thing we have in common. So, we did a 3-2-1 countdown followed by a mutual disconnect.
