      Yeah, like I’m not even motivated enough to go to the grocery store most of the time, I’m definitely not working up the energy to pick a victim, plan a whole murder, do a whole murder, hide evidence, go home, and then do it all again later. That’s basically a second job.

      Look I’d like to go on a killing spree, but someone just uploaded an 8 hour synopsis of a kids cartoon I haven’t seen decades and I must watch it.

    The worry that someone would get murdered and they’d pin it on me because I’m a fucking weirdo loner and wouldn’t have an alibi because I was always at home by myself was a non-negligible part of why I started making an effort to socialize more.

    Those people probably got the triad, though. Do you still wet the bed? Do you start fires? Do you torture animals? No? Then you’re probably fine! Being an introvert doesn’t necessarily make you a potential serial killer. Now, if you fit the triad, you might want to get some help.

    A post attracting loners? What I’m hearing is that a lot of you wouldn’t be missed if you were go missing… but don’t worry! Just send me your address and I will keep you safe. :)

    Pretty sure Ted Bundy had a long time girlfriend. Didn’t she turn him in?

    BTK was married and cub scout leader and president of his church.

    The Golden State killer was married.

    John Wayne Gacy had a wife for a bit. He was definitely murdering during his marrage. The wife couldn’t figure out the stench from the crawlspace.

    Canadian serial killer Russel Williams was a colonel in the army and married.

    5 out of how many? Ok, maybe op has a point.

      It makes sense that older people are serial killers though. They simple had more time to murder more people throughout their years.

    That is not a proper factor. There are millions of solists out there that have no desire at all to kill anyone
