Wow rude
this is unironically how I feel being a 25 year old who's still in university
I’m 30 and still in uni
fricking losers
>Bettering yourself makes you a loser
Can't tell if b8 or moronic
You're a fricking baby.
This is how I feel at 33, taking my 2nd Masters' and having to deal with zoomers, the most moronic generation yet.
Exhibit A
Exhibit B
>went for a meme master's which didn't lead to anything he hoped for
keep wasting your time at at college bro
keep seething, salty losers. I understand that you can't even look a girl in the eyes, so you need to lash out at your betters and even at normal human beings
>reddit spacing and schizo gibberish
I think I hit a nerve. sorry you didn't learn a trade hopefully this time with female studies you will be able to get a job and pay of your college loan
homie you're the one getting a second masters
>a SECOND masters
people dont give you a good career just because of your degree bro, you actually have to learn how to be a people person
Im 26 on my last year and I dont really think about it or give a shit
Literally me but 21
im going back at 32
but I look about 24
time to smash some 20 year old pussy
You think that's bad, wait until you're 27 and you're still on Cinemaphile
Kek I'm 27 and doing this
This is true though, people think I'm older but not actually old and then I potentially lie about my age if they do ask me anyway
I was finishing my BS at 29 and smashed some pristine 20 year old Asian pussy, REALLY didn't give a shit at that point.
>got out of the army at 26 and started college
>did undergrad then masters
>33 when finished with everything
>starting my career at 33
>mfw 23
>Did 4 years at a small university
>Too small to have any clubs and social events
>Didn't really feel inspired by any of my classmates
>Didn't make a single friend or talk to anyone unless necessary
>Now doing another 2-4 years at a big university
>A 'first year' but everyone in my class is 19
>Joining clubs and shit but still feel old as frick
>Only going to get worse
Im not even introverted. How do I cope with this
I genuinely don't understand where this insecurity comes from. I definitely felt it when I was early 20s. I'm 27 now and if I went back to uni I wouldn't have any hangups on being social with 18 year olds. Genuinely, who gives a frick. You're 4 years older than them, get over yourself.
Who’s gonna ask about your age? Just lie about your age a little if you’re that insecure. One or two years, whats the difference? Nobodys gonna know it.
this is unironically how I feel at 19
have a nice day
>me at the age of 22 starting university alongside 18 year olds
you can pass as a uni student until you're 30, just pretend you're young and look old
Also wear a hat.
I started Uni at 18 and had 22 year olds in my classes and it was totally normal, that age gap is nothing. Nobody will care.
Imagine being older than 23 and not having a wife, your own home that you actually own yourself, and a kid on the way. I'm 19 and I plan to dump this website in a few weeks when I start my new job.
I'm 51. Once you are here you never leave.
i turn 28 tomorrow and ive been here since 2007
I turn 28 the day after tomorrow and I've been here since 2008.
Small world.
it is indeed fellow oldgay
i sometimes wonder if i'd be a different person if i hadn't spent 15 years here
2007 - 2011 is newbie.
i make the rules
lmao good luck

BIG OLD wiener.
They all have daddy issues.

My 7's dominated you pussy. JACK POT
>when I start my new job.
I hope you're making at least $80k starting, otherwise LOL, good luck homie.
I wish you the best of luck, but things usually don't go that simple.
I can just tell this anon is gonna make it if he's making B8 this quality at his age.
>t.
It’s fun being young and optimistic isn’t it. You really think people planned to end up with a shit life?
keep telling yourself that,
Hahahahahaha
>I'm 19 and I plan to dump this website in a few weeks when I start my new job.
Toppest fricking keks
whos gonna tell him
lel good if you cant appreciate what this website offers why would you use it anyways, I have a wife and hopefully a kid soon but I'm never gonna drop my boys on the channel
I am 35, married with kids and a house. I have been here since 2004. Don't blame externalities for your problems, even if they are the cause(usually not except for israelites) you make yourself weaker.
Hope you dont burn yourself out wage cucking. Stay optimistic and not cynical.
>I says I'm 19
>She says stop lyin'
>I says I am, go ask my motha'
>An' wit yo wrinkled pussy, I can't be yo loverrrrrrrr
I been planning on never coming back since I was 12. That was over a decade ago
HA HA HA
nice zoomer fantasy, but you're gonna end up on the street eating catfood
>my new job as a bag boy
>Imagine being older than 23 and not having a wife, your own home that you actually own yourself, and a kid on the way.
It's easy if you're not white trash.

I'm 26 and have never kissed a girl.
Reminder to avoid cityslop. Dont move to whatever big/capital city is in your country. You are pissing away your support network and moving closer to living in the pod and eating the bugs
but i need job
you can give rural good job?
The crab industry
This is literally what I did. I moved to Ottawa because I thought hometown>city was what you were *supposed* to do when you graduated high school. I wanted the memory people had of me to vanish so I can start over.
Now I'm moving back to my hometown. Ottawa isn't a real city, it's just a big airport and immigrant trap. I came to the city right after the Trudeau pushed away all Canadians out and filled it with brownoids. Now I'm moving back to my hometown. I wish I could just move the frick out of this shithole country.
F canada, feel for the leafs
come to america? most non cities outside the south are mostly white
Name 4
Beaverton, Seaside, Redmond, Springfield
all in Oregon cause thats where I live (but I will be moving east most likely)
Thanks bro. I will now plan to drop everything and move there if I get the chance. I have no skills though, so I may as well apply to be a refugee
Same. Moving back to Nova Scotia. Only good thing Ottawa brought me was my now fiance, and a career where I can now WFH anywhere in Canada. Where you headed?
What the frick homie we aren't the same. I'm still living with my parents.
Also I'm going to Petawawa.
What's your job and how did you meet your fiance?
I'm desperate to try again, go back to uni and try and meet a girl.
I felt this way at a party once where I was a good ten years older than everyone else. No one said or did anything to give me this feeling and this cartoon didn't exist yet. I did it to myself.
If your older than 21 on Cinemaphile, you need to rethink your life
>be 19 hanging out at the club
>check Cinemaphile because it's still cool for me to do so
>Show the chicks at the club the latest pol memes

This website would be dead if everyone over 21 left
*under
no that would be an improvement
if my older what?
you will never leave
Fr Thought I would be out of here years ago
I was always going to be a loser regardless if I was on Cinemaphile or not. I'd rather be a based homosexual anon than a basedboy Redditor.
id literally rather chat with dudes 26 to 55 then anyone younger than that, this website is a millennial burnout website more than anything
Like zoomers even know what Cinemaphile is
i've been here since 04
they say our generation is fricked, we're like caught in a transition period in comparison to our parents. but i have friends who are both doing better or worse than me, so we can't just accept defeat. it takes time but you just gotta take it a step at a time.
youre here forever isnt a meme lad
For Cinemaphile specifically, the cutoff for being a disgusting tourist is whether you recognise this person or not.
I don't I'm sorry anon.
Myth busters girl?
>learn to fly
I don't care who your waifu is, sorry.
I'm old and just want a place anyone can post whatever they like and noone takes it too seriously but it's starting to fade away
isn't that called family dinner?
That’s old internet. When it was separate from your everyday life. You’ll never have that again. Zoomers and thirdies outnumber you now
Is koala man good?
I discounted it because it looks like Rick and Morty

30 year old racist, homophobic /misc/cel here.
my gf is 21 and in uni. Zoomettes love millenial wiener.
we are all gonna make it bros
and she's trans btw and has a bigger wiener than me don't know if that matters tho
also I am from reddit
Nah she aint any of that fren. don't worry. you will make it too.
Is there a (healthy) way to cope with being a loser with no degree/qualifications/skills/job/KHV obv./living with parents/+debt with 32?
My 20s just kinda passed me by without realizing it and now I feel like someone left me this rundown horders house of a mess of a life and I somehow have to find a way to fix it.
Start hiking in nature, go fishing, hunting play sports anything that gets you out
NTA but lately I have been wanting to get into fishing/hiking and camping lately
I started hiking with one of my friends we are planning a hike cross country, which isn't so bad in small denmark. going fishing with my dad too both things are great tbh and is just a joy. even doing the things alone is great fun. you definitely should start anon
hiking is how I stay sane, that and drugs
quit drugs and substituted it with nature much better
the first thing you have to do is accept that it will take years for some efforts to fully pay off and that there is no magical solution to fixing your life overnight
once you do that, then just do healthier habits every day. If you aren't moronic you already know what's bad and good for you. Eat less junk food. Get proper sleep. Get some exercise. Be trying to both make and seize opportunities in your life.
The most dangerous mentality for people like you is being passive, and just accepting some things as they are rather than thinking "Through my own will and effort, that can be changed, that can be different". Like being a 32 KHV is simply because you have not tried with women, short of you being hideously deformed. You have to start trying at life. Failure is inevitable, but you can't have success without failure. You're going to need the strength of mind to get through the initial failures and difficulties and just trust that you'll eventually get the groove of things and that the effort will start paying off
>the first thing you have to do is accept that it will take years for some efforts to fully pay off and that there is no magical solution to fixing your life overnight
This is the one that stings. I would want to catch up but obviously if I let it get this bad it means I am not normal and need to take things slower. I know I have no other choice as time will pass no matter what but I wish I could make philosophical peace with having wasted my life somehow. I keep watching all these slice of life movies recently: coming of age movies and movies about people in professions and relationships at my age and I keep being reminded of having fricked up my life. The worst is that everyone expects me to have life experience at this age and when I don't they are obviously shocked. I can't even properly explain myself what I did the past years because I memory holed them.
Unironically have to stop being indoors all the time, stop comsuming media that shows what should have been. go out in the real world and live life.
if you're in your 30s you objectively have plenty of time to un-waste your life
it's just that most people like you in their 30s are in such a mental prison of their own making that they can't even begin to comprehend how they can just leave their cell and start living a life worth having
in your 40s you'll be thinking "wow I could've spent that whole decade building a life"
the biggest most necessary jolt to your life would probably be figuring out some way to move out from your parents, that will then make you get many other things in order in your life. You are stuck playing a role with your family dynamic and you need to find a way to break free from that role
>are in such a mental prison of their own making that they can't even begin to comprehend how they can just leave their cell and start living a life worth having
that's something I realized way too late
thought that just because I am not good looking I need to give up on relationships
i didnt realize social skills can be trained like any skill
the people in my school were all boring so I stupidly assumed all the "normies" are like that and that only on the internet I will meet "real" people
also didnt appreciate how much time you have in your 20s to try stuff out and fail just so you know you tried it and it didnt work and you can move on instead of being stuck in "what if?"
You have to believe that a better life is possible and do things every day to make it happen.
what realistic steps would I take towards being a director?
my first throught is an internship/assistant position but who wants a loser boomer over an energetic zoomer?
Probably by just filming with your phone in the woods by yourself and reenacting your favorite star trek episode with your imaginary friends.
I'm trying to write a book. I got ideas for days but im bad at writing a compelling prose. If I were to write I'd basically sound like a Wikipedia page or an anon. I don't think anybody would pay for that shit.
I couldn’t help you with that but a better life does not necessarily mean your dream life.
>Like being a 32 KHV is simply because you have not tried with women, short of you being hideously deformed
Frick off normalgay. You don't know what it's like to be an autist and be able to make male friends easily but have women literally jerk away from you if you try to talk to them.
>You don't know what it's like to be an autist and be able to make male friends easily but have women literally jerk away from you if you try to talk to them.
yes I do, you just need to learn to drop the victim complex anon. Ask what it's really gotten you in life. Women can have victim complexes without it being that big a deal because they can have a man pick up the slack, but what if you are the man? No one's going to come along to save you anon. Hideously ugly men are able to get a kiss by 30 if they really try for it. The sad - and empowering - fact is that you are unkissed because you've on some level chosen to be that way. But the good thing is you can change that. You could be getting laid before the year is over if you actually put serious effort into how you relate to others
>you are unkissed because you've on some level chosen to be that way
>D00d, you ACTchuALLy LIKE being unhappy and touch starved!
>You LIKE losing career opportunities because being approved of by women is an unstated condition of employment!
Frick off normalgay. Is it really so hard to understand that some people got dealt a bad hand?
>Is it really so hard to understand that some people got dealt a bad hand?
you're supposed to play a bad hand if it's the only one you've got you moron, not just give up. Literally any man can get kissed by 30 if they try. And I mean actually try, not spend 10 years daydreaming with video games and movies and fantasizing about somehow having a wife someday. You see with the evidence of your own eyes out in public men that are shorter, uglier and poorer than you with a woman. Why can't that be the same for you?
I have the opposite problem. Girls like talking to me but all men hate me. Every job I've ever had, the guys just don't talk to me, or they get confrontational.
The thing is I don't frick anybody so I'd rather have bros than chicks.
Get a cushy government job. That's what I did and it gave me enough to move out while being self sustaining.
This video always cheers me up a bit when I'm thinking similarly. My early 20s were really messy but I got to the point where I was just curious how things would turn out and I let that curiosity overtake my fear.
>I feel like someone left me this rundown horders house of a mess of a life and I somehow have to find a way to fix it
No one "has to" fix anything. Things fall apart all the time and the world somehow remains. Fix things because you genuinely want to live a better life and it becomes much easier. An inmate released after several years still has to try and make something of what they have left. No shame in it as long as you are willing to try, and you are in a better position than they are. Maybe you'll get something, maybe not. Nothing's guaranteed but you always have a chance.
just try getting a decent job, I'm 25 with a dead social life but at least I'm making some bucks, it helps me cope
Same boat man, I dunno I just try to find stuff to occupy me and escape from how shitty things have gotten.
I’m glad I have some close friends left I can do vacations with but otherwise it’s hard to be excited for anything in life when it feels like I have so much baggage.
I'm 32 too but luckily I righted the ship's course around 27-28. It really doesn't take very long to feel good about yourself once you're on the right path. You can still do it at any time.
I’m also 32 and I know that feel bro
>kissless virgin
>no friends or social life outside of the few hobbies I do
>was “smart” as a kid but still had no ambition
>got useless degree 10 years ago and have wasted my life at a useless job that makes me want to kill myself going to it
>now im as dumb as a bag of rocks, can’t imagine having a job with any responsibility whatsoever
>have some money but it doesn’t matter since I have no goals for life
>don’t even have the ambition to own and drive a car, I just get around via subway, bicycle, and carpooling
>live with parents and pay them rent (extremely high cost of living area im too much of an autist to leave) but when I lived on my own in college my life was no better so who gives a shit
>miserable every waking moment of my life
I read through the other anons responses to your posts and they make a lot of sense, but at the same time I live in an endless state of shame, regret, and humiliation. I’m so ashamed and humiliated I can’t even speak to people anymore.
I was researching mental illnesses and stumbled upon avoidant personality disorder and the symptoms and stories from sufferers more or less mirrors my life story as well
Are you a failed normie or a legit sperg?
If you are 30+ and have less life experience than an average highschooler you are probably suffering from some severe undiagnosed developmental disorder and it never began for you.
I lack this thirst for social interactions and this intuition for what to do. In movies for example there are often situations where I personally would have no idea what to do. Like how couples do these romantic gestures.
I regret it now but I was perfectly fine being alone in school and college. I also never felt any shame going to the movies or restauraunts alone.
I mostly want to be able to talk to people because I am disillusioned by the internet and I too late realized how important social skills and knowing the right people is. I would like for example to talk to people who actually know stuff instead of anonymous trolls talking out of their ass. But talking too much tires me and I don't know how I could maintain social relationships if I am not willing to talk to someone more than say 1 hour a day and I lack the drive to host parties and ask to join people when they go out socializing and stuff...
Same, internet became my surrogate friend and gave me an artificial fulfilment. Now I'm struggling to achieve real friendship in my 20s. I genuinely just want 1 fricking friend. I got so desperate I used the bumble bff app.
>I used the bumble bff app
How did this go? I heard it's filled with gay guys trying to hunt down straight guys.
Yeah That's 85% of the app.
Another 10% are Muslims who are actually new to the area.
Within the 5% are really autistic people or a cool guy who's too shy or tired or busy to text you.
The kinda guy who you want to be friends with, will already have friends. The kind of people who go on the app are like us, flakey, uncommitted, navel gazing, pretentious, sensitive loners who will ghost because we've become so comfortable in our isolation.
I don’t have any advice, but I hope you’re at least openly grateful towards your parents and help out around the house and all that.
You have to disconnect yourself from society as completely as possible. Society is necessarily designed to value align you to its rules and requirements, which are incompatible with happiness as a perma-neet.
how do you have debt if you live with your parents until age 32 and have no student loans? i have no loans and only make 45k but have close to 6 figures in a high yield savings account, im almost 24. still a loser who doesnt talk to anyone and who makes very little but i just dont see how the lifestyle we live has debt in it? are you moronic with money or something?
>even a loser type who makes less than 50k has six figures at 23
lol
>and have no student loans
thats the debt. its pretty small, just 4 figures and I don't need to pay it unless I earn enough but still...
bro you live in your parents house that i assume is either paid off or they are paying off. i dont know if you buy food or pay utilities but take 55-65% of every paycheck and pay that shit off. you get it done in a year and you can sleep knowing that no one owns your ass
I'm genuinely in awe anons aren't being toxic and telling you to kys. Don't give up brother, something has to work out, but you need to take action. Just do something, literally make something happen right now or right when you wake up tomorrow. You say you have no skills, but you don't type like a complete moron. Out there, there is some 94 IQ shithead managing a team of engineers making 170k/year. You need to get it. Just fricking do it, whatever it is. You could become a truck driver and start making 75k/year+ in under 4 weeks. You can go back to school and go into healthcare and make 40/hr in under 3 years. You can get an entry level job in IT and work your way up to 80k/year in 3-4 years easily. Figure out what you want and get it. It's not easy, but you need to have the mentality that you WILL get it done. Just promise yourself you WILL complete something and make it happen. No one's going to save you. Write down your nightmare life in 4 years if you do nothing, and remind yourself of that future every time you feel like quitting. You will become addicted to the feeling of progressing. That's all the brain truly craves, is progress. Stop slacking, you need to snap out of it.
I'm 34 years old and have never felt this way once in my life and go to parties with high schoolers all the time.
how the frick do you even find thopn2wse?
I only started coming here in my late 20s when my life went to complete shit and I give up.
bump
This is my fear its why i never socialize anymore
this is what I think about sam hyde
after a certain point it's getting sad sam, where's the wife and kids?
Sam hyde really has no excuse considering he is rich and has internate fame. He should been able to lock down some chick.
I feel like that moronic homie didn't understand what was fun y about himself and when he was blacklisted from Hollywood he never recovered mentally.
Most people are single these days though. 50 percent.
These alt right wingers aren't ended up to well are they?
>jordan peterson drug addict
>lauren southern single mom post wall
>nick fuentes virgin incel
>sam hyde childless no gf
>pearl david childless no bf prob 304
So much for being trad
You all need to experience ego death.
Ego death is an intellectually masturbatory exercise in psychological hedonism for nepo babies who want some way to excuse their privileged guilt
This, so many things that were peddled around are only for rich morons trying to cope with imposter syndrome.
If you're poor, you'll gain nothing from taking drugs besides destroying your life. Rich people take drugs because they can afford to waste a few years burning brain cells and afford the subsequent rehab and therapy. It also makes them seem more interesting.
Therapy isn't for poor people.
Traveling isn't for poor people.
I wish I understood that when I was younger. You aren't going to magically because bourgeoisie simply by having a snobby attitude and big vocabulary. I grew up poor and should have acted and enjoyed the perks of being poor.
>poor people gain nothing from taking drugs
yeah you sound like the upper class yuppy with that mentality, my life has always been bearable despite living in crushing poverty and thats partially because of drugs, that and my former druggy wife
all liberals go to hell
bro
Who else 27 here.
My age is starting to get serious and my resume is worse than a high school student. I've been quiting jobs after a year or less my whole life, but the past 3 years I haven't been able to hold anything down longer than 4 months. I fricking hate working so fricking much. I'm also extremely delusional and think one day I'll be a YouTube millionaire. I wish I wasn't so moronic, but I also wish we weren't going through an economic reset.
just turned 28 7 days ago little bro. I too have zero career progress and have worked mostly the same minimum wage pizza job for the majority of my life cause I made it comfy for myself. The one thing I gained is life experience from travelling the country and playing in bands but once those times are over it feels like it really is just a cope that things are ok even though im coasting like mad.
Wish I could coast. I wish I learned an Instrument. Playing music is literally so fricking crucial in your 20s, it's the difference between being an incel and a Chad. If I could tell teen me anything it would have been to learn guitar and stop playing video games.
Around the same age, same position pretty much.
27 here
I've had to move back in with my parents because of my last flat falling through (left on good terms, but the room was no longer available)
I'm studying a diploma in civil engineering, and I don't care for it at all. I just picked it up because it has good job opportunities and apparently pays well.
I am so far behind on my studies, I need to get off the computer right now and study - but like my entire life, I put the bare amount of effort in, and still manage to pull through by the skin of my teeth. I feel like I've never really tried with anything in my life.
I've been going to the gym very consistently at least. I'm bulking for the first time in my life, 6'3" 103kg, aiming for 110kg before I cut. I can only bench like 50kg atm though. Still just look skinnyfat. Wanna be like, 85kg / 90kg and lean.
My friends all have partners, talking about buying houses, my childhood friends are posting their newborn babies on Instagram, while I really feel like I have nothing going for me. I am mentally still a boy. I don't think I've developed at all after 23. Now the years are flying by, and I feel like I'm pissing all my time away.
Thanks for reading my boring blogpost.
I worked as a security guard years ago and let a guy who said he was a civil engineer before his job got outsourced to India. Good luck bro. I finished my studies in advertising and marketing and haven't found an entry level internship in 3 years.
>haven't found an entry level internship in 3 years
don't tell me this lol. I need to know there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Yeah, I would say 70% my engineering classes are all Indian immigrants. 20% Chinese, 10% white. The Indians are all fricking annoying, rude, and stink - the Chinese are buying all our property, but I much prefer them over the Indians. I live in New Zealand for reference.
not him but dude you aren't going to magically get a good job just because you have a degree. You still have to put effort into other facets of life. This is a downside of grades for kids. A few kids think that getting good grades is all they need to do to be successful in life. All those indian and chinese kids are going to look out for each other, you're just going to end up being a white sounding name on a piece of paper that gets auto rejected in the HR system
you should find a way to brainwash yourself into caring about civil engineering and fast
yeah, I know this, but it's a really tough pill to swallow.
you've motivated me to get off the computer and start studying. thanks anon.
will be back later to check for (you)s.
it's more than just studying. It's about creating opportunities. Like if you've never met a professor at his office hours, you need to change that immediately. Knowing your professors through office hours is how they dole out internships, and that's how your career and network gets started. Otherwise if you graduate without any of that, you're going to have no internships, no network, you're just going to be a PDF showing up to some stranger in HR at a few jobs, and that's a terrible spot to be in
I'm Canadian, we're both commonwealth shithole of a dead empire so we may as well be clones/brothers.
Absolutely fricked how our countries are copying all the exact same problems with no self awareness. Lockstep in our suicide.
The only hope is to try to work your way into the elite. I want to find a way into military arms contracts because you make commission and basically get rich off the military industrial racket.
The defence industry is the best way to make money at this point. With all the billions being poured into "aid" that is just funnelled into the defence industry you can take a piece of that pie
>no job in 3 years
my chest hurts god damn how can you still stay motivated after getting the degree and not finding a job in it for that long. I'm just wrapping up a comp sci degree and I don't feel ready at all. My teachers felt pretty god damn useless.
Because I'm stupid and entered the advertising industry. The only way to get a job is to make a portfolio but nothing I make gets any attention.
The problem is that you need a big ego and to advertise yourself. But I have low self esteem and no ego and I don't have social media. Who the frick would hire a social media manager when they don't have social media accounts.
I'm an AAA+ ideas guy who can come up with the best fricking ad campaigns. But I hate myself so applying to jobs is impossible. If I could just get my foot in the door then I I'll be a manager In a year.

27 here. things went to shit with drugs and self loathing in my early 20s. JUST BARELY decided to finish my credits and get my fricking HS diploma. I don't even know why I did it since I've been doing wagie jobs and lying on my resumes for years. I guess just to feel good. Now I'm not sure if I should dedicate the next couple years to further schooling at a cc or something. suicidal ideation is pretty normal at this point.
I turn 27 in a couple of months, was set to become the general manager of a new store my boss was opening up in the far outskirts of town, majority white the whole shebang, that is until they hired a new GM at the store I working at and she was huge b***h, the entire staff left, and I was one of the last to leave after getting robbed during a rush at like 8pm, we were overworked and understaffed, stressful situation and I'm glad I left, and one of the girls that I had met there unfriended me after an awkward sexual encounter, shit sucks and I've been depressed since and it's already been around a year, I would have preferred it if I hadn't done anything because she was a good friend, but she started spreading rumors about me being gay just because I didn't want to frick her, stupid b***h. Anyways, I'm working at another restaurant now and am already on the verge of becoming an assistant manager, but I feel like it's all for naught, I want a nice career with a stable income. I've been thinking of getting into a trade or maybe trying to become a pharmacy tech and seeing where that leads, I dunno, I'm just lost and as the years continue to fly by I feel like I'm falling deeper into the abyss.
You pretty much explain why I leave jobs frequently. I hate gossip so much and yet it's basically the only thing 20 year olds do in those dead end jobs. It's why I've never fricked anyone I've worked with even though I've had 2 b***hes spread their legs to me at the same time. I'm too sensitive to social drama.
I can handle the drama well enough, but when I have to deal with a superior who thinks they're hot shit that's when I leave, and the supervisors just let them be because nobody wants to work as a GM since that basically means your entire life now has to revolve around your job, and since the majority of the employees there don't value the job they end up having to worry about finding someone to cover the shift, it's annoying. Ever since I went through that thing with that girl though I've just turned into an anti-social mess, I'm slowly coming out of it because I realize I can't continue wallowing on the past, but it's hard sometimes.
At least you're capable of being a manager. I've never been in the position to be chosen for supervisor because I can't hide how little I care.
My last 2 jobs I had people trying to get me fired by making it extra miserable to work. Like I just want to clock in, be nice to customers, chat with the staff and clock out. I'm a decent worker.
There was this...weird nerd clique of basedboy Redditor loser types who just fricking hated me, like I've never felt such palpable hatred for me in my entire life.
Man idk I'm actually social and nice and get along with some people. But sometimes I think about taking a job in HVAC and never speaking to anyone at work again.
>I'm actually social and nice and get along with some people
Unfortunately a lot of people see this is sign of weakness, I'm a firm believer that most people are just mindless sociopaths who would turn on you in an instant if it meant they could move up in the world, fortunately for me most people I meet claim they're intimidated by me for some odd reason so I rarely experience any form of bullying, I genuinely can't stand anybody who treats others like shit without a good reason. You should try working on your confidence more and try should be a little more assertive just to not give the rabid norms any sign of weakness.
Nah man, I'm sure you're right but that doesn't apply to me.
Depends on the job. Drama loser people always wind up quiting/getting fired. Just keep your head down, say good morning and do your job at 75% and don't think about it too much. You'll be promoted before you know it.
ive been a neet since high school, im completely terrified of life and i get intimidated by everybody. the only thing i have going for me is im not a drug addict. i know what i have to do but getting myself to do it is almost impossible
if you live alone and have no debt you are doing better than most americans even if you are cash poor. take solace in that. if you want to be a youtube just remember that you need to look good. get real thin. you could also be charismatic but you are here so i know you are not. i hope it works out
go work a shitty job that employs older people. older people are way easier to talk to then peers for some reason in my opinion. i suggest home depot. godspeed
>look at the filmography of my favorite actor
>they done like 20 movies by my age and traveled all around the world and met many interesting talented people
>meanwhile I've yet to do anything and haven't talked to anyone in years
i just think about how bored and disgusted they would be by me if we met because I got nothing interesting to say
ehh start learning about shit on the internet, i dont have a ton of life experience but one thing I can do is talk about 100 different subjects and thats because I spent most of my life reading about different things, if all they had was travel stories and wacky people stories theyd be the boring one to me
my anecdotes about my adventuring with a trans hungarian dwarf are better than whatever silly facts youve picked up from wikipedia
Oh ya? Well lay it on us, share your troony midget anecdotes.
how do you remember all that stuff?
I like to read books on different topics and watch documentaries and read pop-sci/reportage magazines but it's all surface level and not enough for a conversation
idk maybe I have memory problems
borderline autism aswell as rereading the same things ever, to normies it seems like I have deeper level knowledge of a billion subjects cause they all know so little, but to people that actually know shit the one subject I can talk in depth about is music
Don't compare yourself to the elite who were born just to live in aimless pleasure. There are Saudi oil princes who take fat shits on insta prostitutes and do nothing all day. Some people just win the lottery. But there's camaraderie in struggle. You have us bro.
>Don't compare yourself
I would like to stop but how? We all occupy the same space and compete for the same resources so even if I had no real choice over becoming a loser because of my circumstances it still hurts. It's not like there is affirmitive action for losers and if I tell people my life story they will be like "oh I see there was no way you would not turn out a loser I wil give you the job over this younger and better guy out of fairness" and no woman will be like "you might be a loser but you are doing the best you can! You managed to wake up on time, shower and brush your teeth today? You are the best *hugs*"

just made a catfish account of a gymbro on tinder and got more likes in a hour than I ever have on my normal profile
Doesn't matter. I'm pretty handsome and if I made a window or bumble account I'll get 18 likes within 24 hours. But literally none of them will ever meet. Girls are doing the same shit, making catfish accounts and fishing for likes. Or they are bots trying to make the app seem more busy.
I would honestly rather have 3 likes from REAL people. Because every single one that agreed to meet me ghosted on the day we were supposed to meet.
So what's the best career to study to try and get a job? Some people swear by coding..but I've heard that it can take some people 1.5 years before you might even get an entry position because it's so overcrowded with applicants.
if you want a "please give me a job that makes plenty of money" education then become a doctor. Otherwise the way life works isn't just get a degree, get a job. You have to actually learn how to talk to people. You get an internship in college. You network at events. You have LinkedIn. You remember peoples names and the names of their kids.
Think about what hiring managers go through. You receive a stack of 100 resumes. What really makes one person stand out from another? Your 4 years of school just becomes a line on a resume.
DUDE THIS CARTOON LOOKS LIKE SHIT ON PURPOSE LMAO
What cartoon? He's literally me
>successful friends now paying off their first houses
>I still can't even maintain 500$ in my bank account

Sucking that hard at life takes talent, well done.
When my older sister was my age she was already a successful nurse who had taken 10 trips to Europe and living with her soon to be husband.
I currently live with my parents and have 1 year of cashier experience on my resume. I'm 27.
>nurse
i fricking hate women
I’m a male studying nursing. There’s heaps of guys in my course which surprised me because I thought i’d be the only one. It pays pretty decent over here in Australia and is in high demand so eh frick it a jobs a job
Honestly tempted to just jump into nursing because despite the studying being so intense it's a job that is so in demand that you can virtually move anywhere on earth and live comfortably.
I come here partly to feel camaraderie with you anons in our shared misery. But I also feel delight in knowing there's someone older and in a worse position than me. I genuinely wish every anon makes it. I wish I had a steady job that let me live extremely comfortably, and babe with a nice ass and cute face, and time to play video games and watch movies and go out to eat every week. That's literally all I want. The bare minimum of the social contract.
I wanted all those things, and finally got them several years ago. The emptiness didn't magically go away. There's more to it than simply lacking nice/comfy things.
I'm already pretty chill as is with living with my parents and NEETing. I think your experience speaks to something more personal and troubling within you. If I had a girlfriend, my own place and a decent job I wouldn't be complaining.
>I'm already pretty chill as is with living with my parents and NEETing.
you just haven't yet grasped how much your lifestyle is dependent on your parents, and that this situation will not last forever, and that one day reality is going to hit you like a truck
Newsflash, I know how fricked I am, I just know that worrying isn't going to help. If I'm going to be an arrested development parasite then I'm going to sit back and relax.
>I just know that worrying isn't going to help
yes it will dude, what do you have learned helplessness or something? you're in a prime position to actually set yourself up for a good life by having minimal expenses. In 15 years you're going to think the anon you are right now was a complete moron
Man frick off c**t. stop giving unsolicited advice when nobody asked. I'm not paying for your self help course b***h
aw little victim wants to cwy
just remember that when your life sucks 15 years from now, it's because you chose for it to be that way
Sounds like you're projecting. Nobody who has anything valuable to say would get so bitter over having their shit advice rejected. Sounds like you're an even bigger loser than me.
>he self-identifies as a loser and also thinks his life is chill
God damn you're a better incel. Bro, there's nothing to gain here. We're in the same boat. No reason to be so hostile. Wanna continue to be a homosexual? Go to Cinemaphile and sperg out over useless shit instead of spazing out here
Too bad chud, you vill eat za bugz and live in ze pod and you vill be happy.
you know if you guys want to be successful in life and feel like you're too late to make it, all you have to do is start knocking up a bunch of bawds. If you accept that you're going to be a poor loser no matter what you do, you might as well start making a bunch of babies. Your genetic success is assured, and one of those kids might actually contribute to your wellbeing in old age
just straight up start prowling the trailer parks and immigrant enclaves for wombs
jesus christ just looking at my bank history...god I'm just addicted to fast food...10$ dunkin morning trips...20$ dinners from taco bell/wendys/subway/chinese every single day...I make 2300$ a month no wonder I can't save money. I spend more on fast food then on rent
Before 2010 you could eat out every single day and it wouldn't hurt your bank account.
This cost of living crises isn't how shit was supposed to be. You could have had McDonald's everyday for 10 days before 2010 and it would cost the same as a single meal today.
The rich telling us to "save money by not eating out everyday" was some pure fricking bullshit social engineering.
>30 years old
>Still got told I look like I'm 15
>Get called "kid" by people who are legitimately 5 years younger than me
>Dont know if I should appreciate the youth
>Or realize I'm gonna look really weird when I'm old
>Started adopting an attitude of being an arrogant prick that's very confrontational just to force people to measure me more than just a kid
>Works very well but now I'm just recognized as a confrontational butthole, oh well, better than never being taken seriously
I met a guy at an old job when I was 23 and I thought he was close to my age. He had this skinny short build like a teenager. Also his job was basically desk clerk for a Canadian Tire store so it was basically a glorified summer job.
Turned out he was 41. He talked like a nerd so he gave the impression of a younger guy. All he has going for him was his nice attitude. I don't think you should adopt a bitter attitude. Better to be seen as younger than older.
30 now, but I remember employers speaking to me like this when I was 19 and applying for entry level jobs.
Wtf, I'm late 20s and still trying to get an entry level job. Are those hiring manager c**ts really acting like anything above 19 is top old for entry level?
a lot of companies in my area are hiring for new college graduates in these entry level positions so I'm basically fricked. Got my degree 5 years ago, had a manic episode and depression for a couple years and just started getting back on track. No one wants to hire me and keeps asking about my gap in employment, it sucks
when was the last time you talked to a woman that wasnt a relative.
me about 3 years ago
all the time at work, she is always asking what I'm doing and being near me, she put in her 2 wks which has me sad but she gave me her number and told me to stay in touch
but ya of course she has a boyfriend so its over..
but that's pretty much the only good interaction I've had since ehhhh college 7 years ago
Are you me. I met the most beautiful girl of my life at one job and she gave me her snap. I was too much of a pussy to do anything with it and removed her for no reason. When we said goodbye she said I should go visit her at her new job as a dental receptionist. Frick me I hate myself.
>she is always asking what I'm doing and being near me
>she has a boyfriend so its over..
oh my god, Black person, what the frick are you doing? ask her out
Not him but it's too fricking exhausting trying to be a homewrecker. You're literally wasting time and energy putting all your attention on the texts to send her Hoping it can woo the b***h, all the while she's getting fricked when she leaves you on read.
And on the 1/20 chance she bites and decides to frick you, what then? Do you honestly think she's girlfriend material when you proved she's capable of cheating?
Not to mention all the drama with her boyfriend who will send you death threats for a week. And then her next boytoy who thinks you're HER boyfriend who sends you texts about how he's cucking you even though you thought you were the bull. It's just a fricking headache.
I really don't struggle with talking to girls. Infact I can talk to a girl so much easier than talking to a guy. Women are easy, guys are competitive and bitter. If I'm alone with 2 girls I can have a conversation with them both. If there's 1 guy and 1 girl then the guy will try and act territorial with the girl's attention and ignore me. if there's a single guy then I still won't be able to have a conversation with him because he just hates me inherently.
two days ago. she's nice to me but she only talks to when she needs something from me.
and she's "curious" about why i don't hang out with them (her and other coworkers).
Maybe this is stating the obvious but is the problem that we have this idea that we need to complete this bucket list in life and if we don't we are failures? If you really think about it we are born with no purpose. We are not some royal heir to a throne. Realistically even if we did everything right realistically we would not have achieved anything amazing. In the end no one cares and we will quickly be forgotten. So a lot of the suffering might be in your head from wrong expectations of life being this movie.
It's because we cemented a culture of prosperity.
Watch dazed and confused, that's the teenage life you were supposed to have.
Then you go to college, get drunk and barely pass and spend a single summer paying your 2k fees. Then you graduate and immediately work a job and buy a house and marry a girl and have a kid by 25. That's what we had for 70 fricking years.
We were born to be the last ones through the door of the American Ponzi scheme. All the houses have been flipped 50+ times and made incrementally more expensive. All our industries are fake and bullshit. Our money has been inflated and prices fixed, and any gains from the stock market has been missed.
We're left holding the bag for boomers.
Like the silent and great generation that precedent the baby boomers, we're the sacrificial lamb to be slaughtered so that our successors will live prosperously. They may or may not send us to war, but they'll accept the shrinking child rate as a suitable way to cull the population so that the next generations can enjoy the wealth.
NTA but this was a good read. I’m trying to find enjoyment in the times were living in but it really is the bleakest fricking time in a while. I’ve seen people treat it like a curve, they say we’re in bad economic times and generally poor quality of living now but it’ll swing upward in the future. I’m not convinced. I think it will just keep going down and down hill until our society collapses
This was all planned, controlled and manufactured. Don't mistake malice for incompetence, don't think for a second that all the people at the top did a "whoopsie". There's too many people on earth and not enough resources to allow millenials and zoomers to live as wealthy as their parents.
We're like a controlled demolition. We were purposely raised to not have kids, to have shit jobs, to inherit no wealth, to toil pointlessly, to live out parents homes, to insure the birth rate remained below replacement.
The kids who are born 20 years from now I'll be the new baby boomers and the cycle will repeat. We'll be the new silent generation, the ones ignored and forgotten.
There's quite literally nothing you can do. Everyone in the system wants this to happen. And the cash majority were raised specifically to be content in this toil.

>Make great money but job is boring and tedious
>Took the Cinemaphilepill and even doing jiu jitsu
>Still bored as frick 80% of the time
I guess I have to just settle down with a woman now
people existed before the economy. A good life requires good people, not a good job. A good job is just a means to an end.
>bored as frick
welcome to adulthood. especially in the internet/smartphone age, where we've all been dopaminemaxxed for the last 20+ years
normal everyday life is pretty fricking mundane
the thing that made me realize I need to change after being a shut-in and playing video game all day is getting a crush on an actress my age and listening to her interviews and seeing her social media and interact with others and it made me ashamed of being such a manchild lol. im so mindbroken by being terminally online and living in this shell i forgot how people live life beyond the screen and their room
I don't know who that actress is but from what you said, I assume she's the type of person I'm familiar with. So what I can tell you is that while indeed your current NEET life is unhealthy for lack of exercise and contact with nature, you seriously don't want to change that for a social media life filled with engagements you'd expect of a "functioning member of society". This "ideal adult" is actually far from the enlightened and mature individual you'd imagine, but rather a person built on privileges, finger-pointing and, above all, fooling others into buying it. You'd be much better off doing your own thing, discovering knowledge and wisdom by yourself, and training (seriously you should start ASAP, even with small jogging). Compare that to having to constantly film your day-to-day life to post on social media, feeding your ego on an endless ego-battle with other narcissists, and having your life materialistically centered on working. As an example, I've met people who supposedly fit your crushes' image, and yet are completely delusional and childish behind cameras, and they literally only talk about the most mundane work stuff like bureocracy and how much they should be earning. You don't want to change your type of suffering to another.
she actually doesn't have a public account but she appears in others posts and it's actually mundane stuff for a celebrity but it still reminded me how uneventful my life is and how much of a loser I am and embarasswed would be to talk to her.
I've been having some decent success as an RBT over the past couple months. Started as a BT and got my certification after passing the exam which was very easy. I originally made $16 at a salaried full time position but now I make $32 hourly working in home with autistic kids. It's tough some days but actually starting to make some good money definitely makes me feel good. I have a useless bachelors but you can apparently get your masters in aba very easily online and start making some great money and has great possibility for remote work if my current bosses are anything to go by.
A guaranteed sign of an autist is when someone writes random acronyms as if everyone will know what they're saying.
google
I’m assuming it’s behavioral therapist. How did you get that job, why do it?
I randomly saw it on indeed and applied because it was the closest job near my bumfrick town and no one else would hire me so after like 10 denials I got a little annoyed and tried anything. The closest other careers are like hour+ long drives into Washington DC though which sucks. Pretty much any company will hire and train a BT as long as you can pass a background check.
When you become an RBT is when you can start making more money because only RBTs can legally work with some insurance providers while BTs can not, these insurance providers also happen to give bigger payouts to ABA companies so they want to train new RBTs. Becoming an RBT is something doable within like a month and a half of "average" studying.
Salaried RBT positions pay way less than in home which is what I'm doing. Salaried is guaranteed money if a client cancels but honestly I haven't experienced almost any cancellations from clients and you are basically making double the money. The job really isn't that bad, the parents help you a lot with behaviors and a lot of the session is also kind of providing therapy for them as well. You kind of have to be an empathetic person to enjoy this job.
>I have money but I'm just sooooo bored
God damn use some of that money and go on a damn vacation or some shit overseas. Find a greencard wife like the rest of us and settle...NOW
Cool now I'm bored in another country
Hey man i’ll gladly take ur money if it’s all the same to you
need a green card husband?
i will sleep in a separate bed
and i'll refrain from giving kisses
I was talking to this freshman in my English 101 class and Fortnite got brought up and he mentioned how he was 11 when BR came out. He literally grew up with Fortnite like how I grew up with Minecraft
>t. 22yo boomer
Is s2 good? I finished s1 recently and thought it was decent. Not amazing, but decent enough and worth watching.
Just turned 30 and I'm still fricking aimless and clueless about what to do.
Tried the military back at 19, didn't work. Now after a million failures I'm at a grocery store pushing carts. At least it got me out of the house and is helping me lose weight. Paid my car off too, so that's good.
Don't got a dad anymore and I live at home with mom who's got some years until it'll be that I have to be the one to take care of her. I'm trying to get ready for that but I'm still so lost about how to function as an adult.
At least I'm kinda attractive, I'm not K or H and I can talk to women fine but I don't think anyone will ever want to be with someone like me romantically. I just don't see it happening, though I know that kind of perception is ruining my chances with women. But I can't help feeling that way because who wants to be/start a family with someone that'll have to live at home and take care of his mom and can't even find the will to even begin to find out how to make something better out of himself than a toilet scrubber and cart pusher?
The worst part is even if I did find the will, I still don't know what I want to do. Waging away for decades is a huge commitment and some people are just so casual and quick about making that choice. It's crazy to me.
Anyway, my plan for now is to save up like a $10K cushion and take a break from supplying Our Greatest Ally™ with my tax dollars to focus on getting in serious shape and get that out of the way for later. Maybe I'll think of something by then. Maybe something will happen? For now, I just try to autopilot through my days. What a life, huh?
Thanks for not reading my blog.
is it still viable to >learn2code or has AI and the indian onslaught pretty much killed this career?
It's not the golden ticket it once was and unless you already have a network you're gonna need a degree, but it's still better than any other career
Plan is to work hard as frick for a year (60 hr weeks) and save up for a downpayment on a house. Find some renters to assist with mortgage so I can finally feel like I've made it. I see 350k 4br 3.5 baths in my area that would be sick to rent out. Brother would also be one of the renters
Thoughts? Anyone else landlording? I've always been a good tenant myself for my landlords but I guess there are some horror stories.

it's a reference to Sam hyde? dude is like in his late 30s, he's fricking ugly and almost balding, never had a real job, wife and kids and hang out with 20s wiggers
This dude turned everyone here into LULZ posters lol.
It's a lonely Sunday.

"If you're in your twenties in the year 2024 and you don't have the exact same setup as your parents and grandparents who had guaranteed jobs and could buy a home with the equivalent of three years part time work and a car with a summer job YOU ARE A LOSER"
Why did I waste my 20s lads? It was so obvious what would happen. Why did my self-preservation instinct not kick in mid 20s the least? Being a 30yo loser is so fricking bad and regret is one of the worst emotions you can feel as you can't go back in time.
The comfort was just too nice. The predictability. The garaunteed dopamine hit from games.
Tbh if I was given another chance I'd probably do it again. After trying and failing to change things that is. I'm very weak willed.
why do zoomers come to the Internet retirement home
It was over when I was 12 years old and I was last to be picked in dodgeball.
I’m 21 and only starting uni now to escape the neethood trap i’ve been slinking into. Haven’t worked since I was 16. Resume is bare-bones. Nobody will hire me. I’m broke and rely on neetbux from my parents to get by. I don’t have a car, can’t afford it plus the idea of driving stresses me out. Not ugly but too mentally weird and fricked up to date and be a good bf.
what the frick is the point when youve already wasted and ruined your life? in my early 30s with zero to show for anything. i dont even have memories of my life, everything is a blur. i know i need a social life but im legitimately terrified of social interaction because then everyone sees what a loser i am. i have no self esteem either.
I thought I was based for deleting my social media at 17. Only to realize it's basically your social resume and if you have nothing then people think you're a serial killer. But you can't just restart your social media in your mind 20s.
Since we’re all writing our life storys and experiences with women here, I’ll say mine and brag a little bit just for shits. I first kissed a girl on the lips when I was 3 years old at my cousins birthday part. Me and another kid were interested in her, but I won her over when I kissed her on the lips instead of the cheek. After that day I never saw her again though, not like you can have a relationship that young, and I found out she was moving away. Anyway, through life I’ve been approached by numerous attractive girls or women who wanted to go out with me, some even outright wanting sex. Believe it or not. Still never had a real girlfriend though, for more than like a day or so. I never really got very close to anybody my whole life, except for a few friends I used to have when I was younger. 31 now, and haven’t had sex.
Way to waste your attractive looks, at least as a 32 yr old KHV I can cope that no women ever showed me even the most subtle hint of attraction.
Sorry about that. I still think you could have sex though, albeit maybe with a more average women. There’s plenty of those out there.
Pretty relatable. I had a normal childhood but I think my brain got fricked from early internet addiction and video games. By 13 I was already bitter and not interested in making friends or being normal.
I look back at high school and realize that if I just put myself out more and did after school activities I would have been happier. I had so many crushes on me. Idk why my self esteem was /LULZ/ tier when I was considered handsome.
Yeah in highschool I didn’t know how to really start or hold conversations about shit except with my few close friends, and had some social anxiety. Only ever went to one party. I don’t think it helped being raised by a single mother. Though, these days I have grown in that regard and know how to do that. The only thing thats been holding me back now is other mental / health bullshit I been getting over.
Sorry you were raised by a single mom. My dad was in the army and never around because he was on 8 month tours overseas. So I grew up with a mentally ill mom with bpd and a sister with narcissism, and that combo of 2 women basically raised me to be effeminate and made me act gay while growing up.
I'm glad i had some slight teasing in high school to knock that shit out of me. I'm nothing but straight. When I started acting like how a guy should my sister stopped interacting with me and my mom became rude as frick.
The only friends I've had in my 20s have been gays and women. I hate it. I want a bro but I just piss guys off and none want to be my friend. Idk what to change to fix this. Lacking in male role models is like starting life with cancer.
Yeah it definitely is a big debuff to start without a real dad. You’re not doing too bad though, if you do have some close friends, women even. There is hope.
i don't know how you NEETs doing it.
i've been one for a year or so. wanted to kms.
the secret is to always have been depressed so you get used to being miserable
You don't understand. Neets don't neet because they can't find a job, it's because the love to NEET. We love to spend 12 hours doing nothing but playing video games, shitposting and not going out. It's true internet addiction.
If having a social life could bring me more happiness and a job that didn't make me.want to kms, then I wouldn't be NEETing. But all I'm qualified for is being a sign holding doormat, and nobody likes talking to me.
I wouldn't call it "love". It's more like addiction. At some point I would unironically be crying while browsing the internet because I hated it but also couldn't stop because it's like my whole body is itching if I don't give it instant dopamine.
Same. Doesn't help that I have minor agoraphobia. I hate being in malls if I have no reason to be there because seeing 3D women irl makes me so horny that I get angry and frustrated. Also the only thing to do irl is drive and spend money. I fricking hate this bullshit city life.
Damn I want to fricking die
It’s coming closer I swear to god i’ll do it man
No i won’t, though
Suicidal thoughts are basically a reoccurring bedtime routine at this point. I won't do it because I know I'll make it eventually, but frick man the misery gets to you.
I kissed a girl when I was 18, we were both drunk and she wanted nothing to do with me while sober so I don't even know if it counts. Still a virgin at 31.
>regularly around teenage athletes (i referee some sports)
>constantly confronted by all these kids who are normal people who are good at sports, have friends, do well in school, rich parents, etc.
>reminds me of what a loser i am when im 15 years older than them and never had what they have
Probably shouldn’t focus too much on what you can’t get back. Some people are just going to miss out on some things.
I feel bad for OP who just wanted to make a funny thread about Smiling Friends lol. Now a bunch of incels and neets are dumping their trauma
He knew what he was doing you Black person homosexual
>Raised by single mother
>rural area
>"homeschooled"
>Only socialization allowed was at pentecostal church services 2-3 times a week
The game was rigged from the start, wasn't it?
When isn't it. There's no such thing as agency.
>tfw im my 30s and have never owned and barely driven a car
That's fine. Car culture is fricking stupid
Play Gran Turismo or some racing simulator for a while. Or drive a go-kart. Use a relatives car you can drive around a parking lot. Theres a little test you’d have to study and take, but there are literal morons like Chris-Chan that know how to drive. It’s not hard.
It's funny how that's something the dumbest person can do but to me it feels impossible. I just can't picture myself being able to navigate this massive vehicle through narrow traffic under pressure of all these impatient drivers plus having to constantly pay attention out of fear of hitting someone. Idk how people do it.
Double dubs check.
It's actually really simple, I felt the same way. I avoided it for the longest time until I was 24 for some reason. Driving felt like a bizarre impossible task. When I started learning then it just made sense. I mean the thing has been designed FOR you, to be as simple and intuitive as possible.
Hell, right before my last drivers test my car had an engine problem the day before so I decided to just rent a car to get it over with. I asked for a car but they gave me an SUV. I was intimidated but it was so frickin easy after the initial confusing.
You just don't know how easy it is until you get behind the wheel.
You get over that after a few hundred miles but it's terrifying before then.
t. got my license and first car at 27
>Lived with dad and his long term gf during college
>No car due to one stop bus route to university
>No job to focus on school
>End up not making any friends or gfs because no money, no car and dad's gf being a fricking c**t who's b***h at anything but total silence
>Browsed Cinemaphile and used headphones all my 20s, don't even remember that part of life
Wasting your youth is a nightmarish existence. I don't think it's normal to think about killing yourself as often as I think it.
all of us itt should form our own jonestown and do a mass suicide
Nah, as much as I hate life I want to exist still. Plus my family loves me and also needs me to wageslave to not decay from their middle class life too living in a slum.
When I found out that feds were targeting teens to radicalize them and make them school shooters I lost all faith in the system.
I'll live and be a drain on your gay system. Frick you glowie.
Funny how the system gingerly hands out ways to lose faith in it without ever inspiring a meager morsel of hope. That’s the thing that drives me mad. Lies dressed as false hope, a prostitute in a habit. Once you realize it, it becomes a part of you, you know, the truth. The madness you have to live right next to along with everybody else. Get along to go along. Muster hope that forever doesn’t catch you blinking ever.
We’re not all suicidal. Personally I’ve grown past that. Generally if people put forth just a bit more effort than their usual, they can start to change their shitty situations.
You right the course in small increments. Otherwise you hit ice.
Yep. It’s a problem when people feel they’re in a shitty situation and don’t do anything at all to change it. Theres a bunch of people like that. Some of them will figure it out and some might need help from others.
>and don’t do anything at all to change it
It's just a lack of confidence and belief that you have the power to do it. Also a lot of people lack purpose. Also the internet was a mistake by giving us access to nonstop instant gratification. I would do a study on it if I could but I suspect imageboards are as addictive as some drugs. Have you never spent an entire day here despite previously telling yourself you will stop because every thread is shit anyways?
Yeah I have spent a lot of time here. There have been recent moments when I do better though. When I get so bored and burned out from here and youtube, and those are the moments when I can get shit done.
Nah man, I wanna live to see the destruction of Israel.
Just wanted to recommend this book. I feel like it would help with the mindset a lot of people here have and unlike other self-help books it's straight about telling you that it won't give you a secret key to happiness or change you overnight but rather gives you the tools that could help you to get through life in a more productive way.
Thanks but my problems aren't a mindset issue. I can't get hired in the field I studied in, which means I don't have no way, which means I can't move out of my parents houses which man's I can't get laid, which means I jerk off 24/7 and feel bitter.
I WANT to be a productive member of society. But society is objectively broken. I'm fine, my situation is not fine and trying to "think" myself to feel better sounds like snake oil salesmen shit from rich kids who don't know how good they have it.
>can't get a job because i haven't had a job in years and recruiters sneer at me like i took a shit on them personally by not being employed continuously
cool
Um...smiling friends???
The whole thread is about Smiling Friends. It’s about how the OP quote made people feel.
This thread convinced me to stop putting off getting a new job thanks anons tired of part time jobs 18+h is good but I need full time for a house loan.
Still worried since I’m going to be 25-27 year old KHV by then sitting at home alone with nothing to come home too.
>sitting at home alone with nothing to come home to
get a dog
I'm just so annoyed with myself that I had no interests but playing video games all day when I was young. Meanwhile others used that time to gain some experience in their field and get started without any of the pressure you get when you're older. Also wish I could make my past self not think pointless defeatist thoughts.
