Are you me?

"social life" is a jewish meme unironically

save your money, buy land, food, weapons, gold and crypto.

You won't get a girl this way, but if you are a fag, you can suck dudes off grindr on an odd night, like I did in your situation

>>14565629
It really does feel like a jewish scam to prop up the economy. Spending $40 on 1 night just so you can feel like you're not an utter loser.

>>14565597
drop alcohol and trashy women, however maybe this experience is just part of OP's way

Same, however my problem is I do want to go out to have fun and chill. But I have the feeling I don't fit in with normies, due to everything being extremely superficial. I can't stand the simple talk and the emptiness of hitting the clubs or bars. I am surrounded by the wrong people desu. It's weird because I used to be a normie age 19-22 but changed so much over the years into a negative cynical person.

>>14565597
>it feels like everyone is doing something fun with their lives except me
this is a meme. It's FOMO.
You think people are doing this fun great things when in reality they overexaggerate their experiences.
Yes, go out, but don't waste time on > alcohol and talking to trashy egoistical women
do something useful for your future.
think in 10 year terms.

>>14565629
This or at least it is when social life now is nothing other than vice. You drink until you're likely to destroy any relationship, you throw away your health and money, you pump your ears with jewish music and mix with negroes.

Im no weird reject, im married but over the years I've lost all interest in hanging out with friends. I just don't care about what they care about, i don't want to simultaneously snort cocaine delivered by cartels whilst talking about how bad brexit is. I'd rather just chat to 4chan.

>>14565597
trade movies and video games for books and exploring your creativity. trade meaningless night life for meaningful bonds. the worst thing you can do is isolate yourself while maintaining a superior act.

>>14565673
> $40
Fucking where. Easily $150.
> $50 cab fares
> $20 entry
> $5 minimum per drink and let's assume maybe 10-15 so $50-75

28 year old boomer here, social life is a meme. i realized that the only reason i maintained friendships were so my parents would think i was normal, but then i moved away far from home and now i legit don't feel the need to interact with others. i make no effort to make or stay friends.
been out getting drunk and high and traveled and danced, but the only fun parts were the drunk and high parts, and i prefer to do that alone.
the negative thing is that living like this hampers me in work related stuff since the only important thing is networking, but when link takes off i won't have to worry about that.

>>14565629
this
by going out to just "socialize" you are admitting to everyone around you that you have nothing better to do other than to seek validation. Unless you are famous, arrive in a lambo, or are a chiseled chad, you will be fighting for scraps when it comes to your "ideal" social interactions. The only social interactions that are ideal are the ones where you totally dominate and lead a group that respects you, which is never going to happen to a normie. If you can't achieve this you WILL be BTFO'd by a Chad or Stacy and your fragile ego will be shattered.

>>14565770
Fuck that. Even spending 100 hours perfecting parrying on sekiro is better than walking around a club with pissed pants and white powder around your nose.

>>14565805
Same. I thought being married would make my boomer parents stop whining but everytime i meet they make the same exact point of asking what various friends from school are doing now, knowing full well i don't know and always leverage it into a conversation about how i should keep in contact despite living hundreds of miles now from any of them.

>>14565597
OP this >>14565629

Read books, educate yourself, enlighten yourself and prep for the inevitable.

>>14565629
This.
More the 2nd part.
Make money, leave the city, find a nice plot of land and a cute wife who wants to be a mother and tender a garden.

>>14565629
Nice post.
I have yet to buy land. Soon, though.

It is a strange feeling. One one hand I would like to go out and do stupid shit every once in a while but it usually isn't that satisficing as I think it would be beforehand. If I don't get out however I feel like I am doing something wrong and get urge to go and meet people. Meeting old friends and chilling/ catching up in a cozy environment is always a good idea though.

>>14565597
> surrounded by normies
No it's not

Social life is good but vastly overrated
And if by socializing you mean getting drunk and trying to appeal to 30yo roasties, THAT is a meme.. no wonder you feel like a goy.

You can tell these things any 16-24 year old, how many would understand this?
How many would continue with their live getting drunk and wasting time to get acceptance from people?

This is the average day for normie zoomers.

Ugh, Canada is full of those turbo faggots.

>>14565597
Stop being a faggot. The point of your 20s isn't to have fun and have a social life. Those are lies invented by Jews, similar to feminism, to distract males from their true purpose in life.

Your 20s should be spent gathering resources to form a family with as many white children as possible, finding a good family woman and starting to pump out those white babies and save your people from extinction. That is purpose!

Not some faggy, nihilistic, aimless bullshit about wasting time with degenerate morons in clubs and bars. A social life is only useful if you use it to form social connections that allow you to make money or finding a mate for reproduction. Anything else is a fuckin' waste of time.

Especially if you already have a woman. Who the fuck needs a social life when you could be fuckin' a woman pumping out babies and fulfilling the nature purpose of all living things.

>>14565597
no, and stop thinking everyone else is having fun in their 20s cuz chances are they're "wasting" most of it as well

>>14566396
I'm strangely addicted to NELK videos, even though I'm an introvert NEET who never goes out.
I have fun watching them do their stupid shit, and at the same time it shows me that I'm not missing anything since I couldn't stand hanging out with a bunch like that.

i dunno

honestly if being a normalfag doesn't come naturally to you and have to try it's probably not worth it

the very fact that you even have to ask and bothered to ask this question on a tibetan sock puppet exchange forum to boot instead of just walking to a bar and getting drunk by yourself like so many other normies do like second nature is really all you need to know

>>14566666

>>14565597
Just go out and experience it, you'll either like it or realize that you don't like it and go back to enjoying comfy youtube videos by yourself

>>14566775
Not him, but I tried. It wasn't marvelous but I made myself thinking it was okay. Maybe it really was I don't know. The question is does it make sense to continue trying? You must spoil before you spin, right?

>>14565597
>I am a mid 20's male who spends most of his evenings alone watching movies/internet/playing video games. I only go out if someone else initiates, I don't think I have made plans on my own volition since high school.
you're a fucking loser

>>14566630
Been watching them for a long time, they have funny pranks because they fuck with NPCs, ruining their simulation. Yeah, I will never be part of the normalfag collective conciousness either. Whenever I'm around normalfags, they just snapchat/take pictures of everything and don't actually have anything to bring to the table.

People recently started using the word FOMO to refer to missing out on social interactions/travel to cool places etc.
It's a more relevant word in this place than anywhere else, don't FOMO, a lot of those people are as depressed as you are just with different thoughts

Social life was important in the past. For example, 150 years ago, having good relationships with the village/ town where you lived must have been pretty important.

Today, it's shit and useless. Most of your "friends" are pretty useless. Better being alone at night and learn some skill or do some sport.
Hell i find it's not even cool for finding women.
Voluntary work, some artistic activitiy or pick up seems better for this.

I'm 36 and work from home, other than whatever I do with my wife and kids I can't recall the last time I had something like a social experience.

whenever i go out to "socialize" i fell bad, i look at all that crowd with no great purpose in life smiling and enjoying simple things, like a cat with some toy or a dog with a bone.
summing up, existentialism strikes me down

>>14567275
nice trips. it depends on your age and your overall experiences... i was still pretty blue-pilled in my teens and early twenties on "friends" and "having fun" and went out drinking pretty regularly but not to normie clubs... was it fun? sometimes yes but i never really initiated any social stuff, i just joined others. but the older you get you will realize it's leading you nowhere - especially if you do more than drinking. it's just a waste of time, resources and health. "friends" come and go too, i stopped making new ones because it's always out of sight out of mind and i am too autistic to keep in touch with people. you have to try for yourself fren

Correct.

>>14566396
>blow that smoke in my mouth, bro

What is this faggotry?

>>14565597
Depends on what you like to do. I used to attempt to go out all the time with people. I would drink hardcore, socialize etc. I hate almost every second of it.

After some self reflection, I figured out that I hate drinking, I hate being hungover, I hate being forced to be around other people unless its on my terms and I really just dont find sitting out at bars with people fun anymore.

It took me a while to come to terms with the fact that I much prefer being by myself most of the time. I don't hate people, I just want to do what I want to do.

Recently, I've quit drinking, started exercising daily as a hobby, i'm attempting to get into gardening, I watch whatever I want, play whatever I want whenever I want.

It's really freeing becoming comfortable with yourself. Maybe one day I'll find some chick like me, maybe I won't. I don't really care anymore. I turn 28 next week and I feel a lot happier then I have ever been

If you want a woman, you'll want a social life. It builds your social skills and gives you stories/things to talk about. Woman don't give a shit about your accomplishments if your boring/awkward. Also going out doesn't have to be about drinking/partying. Get with a group that likes doing constructive things like working on cars or writing fiction. A lot of successful people spent their time with others that can help them hone their passion, like Tolkien and CS Lewis with their writing group.

>>14565597
Being a loner is only acceptable if you're spending part of that time getting /fit/ and enjoying natural endorphins and self actualization. Anything else is degeneracy.

It's a meme, I'm going to a 4th of Juky party tonight but I'm not spending any money and i'm not drinking. Fuck alcohol it's a Jewish trick, also fuck cigarettes I need to kick that habbit too. Time to get /fit/ /lit/

>>14565597
In my opinion its very satisfying, yes. social gatherings, going places, meeting great and shitty people. Having great and shitty moments. Humans are very social creatures. I had a period of 2 years where i got very social and outgoing because of my steroid use and i had a shit ton of fun during that time. Now it feels even worse to waste time in my youth because i know how fun it is to be social. Im also a very social guy, but certain things just keep me from going out so that makes it even more depressing.
Clubbing or festivals arent really fun but having social gatherings where people just talk, listen to music and drink abit make me very happy.
I plan to go back to this life. I think at 24 im still young enough.

>>14566396
so this is what its like to not have a job or any responsibilites

seems pretty fun

>>14565629
don't listen to this virgin. abandoning your social life will make you miserable in the long term. don't make that mistake and go out socialize.

I'm so sorry but all of you neglecting your social life will never make it.

>>14569578
All my friends ever want to do is drink it's degenerate as fuck and I'm over it.

>>14569669
get different friends.

>>14569682
Yeah like making friends as a 27 year old boomer is easy. I have crypto friends who I talk to a lot and some good normie friends who are busy with their own lives and I see them a few times a year. Drinking buddies are getting cut off though.

>>14569728
Doesn't seem like you've been neglecting your social life then. Regardless, making friends is pretty easy. But good luck to ya.

>>14569824
It's okay. I gave up on dating though. Crypto is my life until the halvening.

>>14565597
I had a vibrant social life in my early twenties. Tons of concerts, parties, events, etc. But it got old by the time I was 25 because I hadn't accomplished anything. My normie friends wanted to hang out constantly, to the point where it felt like they were robbing me of my time. I'm bad at saying no so they essentially pushed me around. Hard to get out of that trap once you're in it. But I think when I make it I'll socialize more. Being a broke wagecuck and going out to bars is a really pathetic feeling.

>>14569488

>don't listen to actual advice, listen to the FOMO of socialization and my FUD about loneliness

>>14569488
>t. jew

it's pretty bizarre because after being a NEET for like four years, I dislike being at work sometimes but fuck do I really enjoy the social aspect of it. It got really isolating being inside all day so now I wonder even when I make it will I still work. Just for the immersive aspect of meeting endless kinds of people.

social lives today exist purely to get people to waste money. It's fucking insane how much money people spend on pointless shit to impress others. Last time I went to a movie it was like $40 for all this overpriced bullshit like wtf why would I neet that shit when I can just get bulk snacks at costco and pirate the movie.

>>14566396
I wish I could have fun with hot chicks like that.

We all have to have balance for the most part. Its all relative to your current situation. If you have just realized a new passion and staying in and honing in on your passion and learning more about it will satisfy you, then do it with no regret. We are humans though and after a period of time you may get burnt out and seek human interaction, as others have said we are social creatures by nature whether you are introverted or not we all need human connection at some point. When I first found out about crypto all I did was research it and learn the ins and outs about it and didnt go out at all but after a while I got burnt out. Yea I made a shit ton of gains but I longed for a better social life so I made a point to balance that aspect back into my life. At the end of the day its balance. I would hate to be rich and alone. I much rather be wealthy with a great social life.

>>14570859
A lot of people don't realise they seek social contact by just posting on 4chan.

>>14570875
very much so true

I had friends back in the days, have a wife and kid now.

I hate to socialize and i hate normies and the less people i have contact with the better is my mood. I really dont need people at all except my wife and kid.

>>14570875
This is correct for me.

It sounds cynical, but I have no intention of spending my limited time on people who have nothing to contribute to my life, and the overwhelming majority of people have nothing of value to offer, especially young people in their 20s. Obviously that goes both ways, but trying to be valuable to or gain approval from people who have nothing to offer themselves is a waste of time like no other.
And no, pussy is not “something to offer”, at least not anymore

>>14570859
The only issue is that you have to get rich first and foremost
Having a social life while doing this poses nonzero risks, such as people knowing where you live and having your phone number. You may think those are trivial but you’d be surprised at how easy it would be to wreck someone’s life with just that information added onto the perception that you have a shitton of money

>>14570166
Whats your job?
I hated retail and would rather remain isolated

>>14565597
It is only worth it if your social group all share the same interests and you need a mixture of couples and single girls and guys or else its just backstabbing and lying and toxic.

>>14571097
You just activated my almonds. The "young people in their 20s have nothing to contribute to my life" thing. I've been playing this game wrong the entire time. I should be associated with older folks with connections and a network.

>>14565597
Yes, don't waste your youth, it doesn't come back once it's gone

Money is important but it's not all when you're 20

Have too much fun in your 20s and end up living in a trailer park the rest of your life.

>>14572756
Happy to help, but remember it goes both ways, so you have to know what it is you’re offering yourself, especially with older people with connections. Not that people in their 20s can’t offer things like being someone to just hang out with or get you invited to a party or whatever, but let’s be real by the time you’re in your 30s nobody who isn’t in arrested development gives a fuck about that

human are not suppose to live ALONE forever.

being lonely gives you time to focus on things, but you got to make friends or build a small circle or who will you share your happiness with?.

BUT


not just any friends, you will pick your friends. but just like picking girls you date, or picking a good headphone to stick with, to pick friends that you will invest more times with, you got to first try out manyt different products.

Based as fuck. Social life is gay, family life is the real deal and in the end is all that truly matters.

Find a waifu and mould her into a good house wife and have kids. The only things that are truly meaningful are that of which is of benifit to your bloodline and your people.

>>14565597
>pic not related
is this the social life you want? chilling around a group of people you can barely stand where the tallest person in the group is a fucking albino. That's sad on an indescribable level, you'd have a more productive night wagecucking unironically. Every reformed, looksmaxed incel on this site can tell you about the lie of having an active social life. Most people hate their friends and would rather be anywhere else, doing literally anything else.

>>14565597
Don't go on social media. Everyone has boring lives and they try to make it sound exciting. Just be comfy and accumulate. Once you have millions you can live "THE" life instead of the fake Normie shit.

>>14565629
holy shit the cope levels on the virgin incel copemeter are off the fucking charts

>>14565597
a social life can be enriching. as humans we're social creatures so we derive a lot of meaning from certain interactions.

don't listen to all the spergs in this thread who think a social life means getting drunk and making small talk with people you don't like.

stop browsing social media that shit is toxic and will give you a skewed perspective on how others live. if you've got friends you like then spend time with them, if you haven't got friends you like then find some social hobbies and make some. also if you never hit people up asking to chill they might think you don't like them, most people are pretty insecure.

oh and don't take life advice from 4chan you dumb cunt, including me.

>>14565597
Been there, done that and it is fucking overrated. It is just another thing to distract you from your loneliness or whatever. Might aswell get a nice hobby.

>>14575727

this is me. alcohol is peak social crutch and excuse to do something. once I start to sober up I realize id much rather be doing nothing at home not having to bother with people

I hate "socializing" because of how many calories I need to consume just to get a buzz.

>>14570875
DELET THIS

>>14570875
4chan often feels more meaningful than 90 percent of small talk I have at work or when going out. Keeping friends is very hard and you need to tolerate a lot of bullshit. I hate how unreliable most people are nowadays.

>>14565597
I tried it an it is not worth it.
Yesterday i was on a first date in a year and she really was kinda annoying and didnt even have cash with her. So i payed the 20bucks since we didnt have too much and she said she had something to do with work (lol) and left
Honestly it wouldnt even be worth it even if we had sex cause she was so annoying, i would just have anger sex with her, but not even that happened

Also it is so expensive to go out, fuck i wanted to set up another date but going there by train and just watching a movie costs me like 50 bucks. I wont go and just put the money in crypto desu

>>14576637
Dont initiate conversation with her for two weeks then one night message her "hey what are you up to?" and go fuck her.

>>14576660
Do this, but unironically

>>14566389
I understand it, neither of my friends do it either, we just go out and play Airsoft every once in a while kek

>>14565597

That's a risky thing to ask on 4chan, maybe try /trv/ as well since in here on /biz/ you'll mostly get responses by people who are pretty high on the autism scale.

Back to your question: the standard party-it-up social life style is worthless beyond the 2 or so years you partake in it when you're 18-20. Those are just to show you what it really is, it's fun for a little while but ultimately empty as fuck.

I see everyone in this thread hate on being social, wasting money on drinks and girls and whatnot. They're doing it wrong, you can go out and be social and have actually great conversations with good friends and interesting girls. Often those interesting conversations don't just fall out of the sky when you invite them to your home, but happen spontaneously while having an awesome dinner in a cozy place with your friends, or when enjoying the sunset with a beer.

I know it sounds like a women-meme, but sharing and talking about your thoughts and issues you're facing in your life with friends and colleagues is fucking important. Everyone is working through the same struggles, not tapping in on that hivemind knowledge is an absolute waste.
Also having friends truly care about you, and having a lot of those quality friends is the best feeling in the world. You tell them about that important project you're finishing up in two weeks, they send you a message 2 weeks later "how did it go Anon? Let's hang out so you can tell me about it now that you have time off again". Stuff like that is important in life man, can't just coast through it all solo.

I'm introvert as fuck and need days in between to recharge, but you gotta spend that charge wisely instead of wanking it into the wind to filthy bukkake porn on a Mongolian basket weaving forum.

>>14565597

Do you need them OP? If not, does it matter? I'm extroverted but I don't like people generally. I make friends easy, I'm likeable, people ask me to go out regularly, I just tell them no. Sometimes I will go, but I never initiate it. My closest friend sometimes pops round and I tell him to go because I don't like unannounced visitors. I'm blatantly rude to people, and they often think it's a joke. I don't need their company, I often see it that they need mine, and I sometimes indulge them in it. I'm perfectly happy on my own, so why would I make plans?

I get very, very tired of it all.

I can be social if I explicitly decide to be. Generally though, I don't enjoy going out to party or hang out with people I know. I'm hypersensitive and feel quite uncomfortable in loud environments. That's also why I prefer to stay at home (alone, no gf sadly) and play vidya, binge on YT or shitpost.

>>14565597
45 year old here, been on chan since habbo

20s yeah go out get a bit drunk, travel do a berlin pubcrawl etc etc

At some point you go to enough stuff where its just the same shit, and frankly boring.

Kids and that drama is much more interesting, its an entire new level up game.

also most people are no long term or even worth it.

However some social interaction may act as a tacit mood stabilizer.

And contacts can help

but fuck, haveing the vaccum cleaner truned on sucking value out of the NPC's wallet all day everyday with BTC is the best.

I dont have to deal with people and I get thier wealth.

You only need about 3 BTC and you will have 3 million in a few years time.

Think it through.

>>14577161
this, meaningful social life is important. There is danger with issolation, many famous murderers were outcast and antisocials, its nothing to celebrate

>>14565978
women do not an cannot want this

If they want children, then they want those children to succeed.

This means access to good schools health care and opportunities, social networks

none of which exist in rural areas.

Your essentially asking her to have children who have no future.

>>14576660
Maybe i try to fuck her next thursday since she said on friday she will travel and she had stuff to do at work week.
But i just wanna really smash her because she made me bit mad but isääat least she is petite.

not where I live

the only way in to good uni course that get you a licence to work in a lucrative field,

you have to get a certain mark in the state run exams.

The state scales your 50% of your mark (school based assessment) by how well your cohort at you particular school does.

and if thats not enough schools are selective. So if you don't get into a selective school by 12 years old, then you are fucked for life no matter how hard your work because your grades will be scaled down.

So yes its all that matters around here.

guess this is more of a boomer thread but for me I peaked hard in high school in terms of socializing and having sex and now I'm in college where everyone is just now doing this shit or continuing to do it from high school and I'm just like meh been there done that I wanna workout, learn some skills and make millions.
I'm sure ill be in the same boat as you tho at like 25ish but just go out and fuck and get it out of my system not a big deal man, have a "significant other" is a meme but I'm projecting how I feel for myself

>>14574809
>social life ENRICHING
>DERIVE A LOT OF MEANING

lol shut the fuck up you fucking retard

socialising is beneficial to "mental health" because it prevents people from veering too far from the norm, it makes people feel good, and it assists in finding a mate or group for survival. not because it's an enlightening experience you fucking shallow puddle drinker.

>>14577527
Evidence for that as i don't believe for one second any country exists where certain schools see a pupil's grade reduced if they go to a bad school.

>>14565629

This but unironically

>>14565597
I always thought the reason normies 'socialized' was because they wanted to find someone to sleep with?

I'd assumed only the ugly ones bothered anymore since Tinder and all those apps.

Long story short OP

I used to be a video gaming incel who fapped a lot and smoked weed. I had a part time fast food job and lived with my parents.

I thought I was missing out on life

Now I've got a full time high prestige job, money, girlfriend, own place, nofap and go to the gym. I've put on 20kg of muscle. I don't play videogames. I get tested at work so no more weed

I feel every year I work and act like a normalfag a part of my soul dies

I'm too depressed and tired to even look forward to sex

Yes it feels like I have a future now (start a family soon) but God do I miss having no obligations, playing counter strike all day and smoking weed

>>14578026
what is it that you miss about that life? dont you feel like you got a higher purpose now? a new better goal perhaps?

>>14578026
It's an existential issue. Life is kind of a ponzi scheme where you have to keep piling on aims and activities in order to feel like you're doing something vital. If you ever slow down suddenly it hits you that there's no reason to any of it and so just chilling out and being content is the solution.

So i feel it too, i lift and work and sometimes go out partying with friends getting wasted etc but it all gets ruined if i let my mind stop rushing in all the engagement. Ultimately I'd rather just have a small life somewhere and be happy with the short, weird piece of existence i have.

Kill yourself then kill yourself again when you're in hell.

>>14578079
In a way yes. But I feel like I have come to terms that I naturally enjoy being alone and with my own thoughts and activities. Ive been on 4chan for the past 11 years so i prefer being here than talking to normalfags irl.

i also miss the variety and degeneracy of porn. I miss being able to do fun party drugs e.g weed, psychedelics and MDMA with friends (we don't hang out now I have to be sober)

Overall I think I am much less depressed now and I had some very bad thoughts in my head when I was engaged in my former life style, but that was mainly due to being stuck living with my parents and maybe FOMO on a ""successful"" life.

I think you need to live both lifestyles to figure out what is actually important, realise both lifestyles have their pros and cons, and it's good to experience different things before you die. Self improvement will keep you happy if you have a strong character.

I do enjoy having sex and a loving girlfriend which comes with living the Wageslave normal life

Sometimes I still feel like giving it all up and regressing into a video gaming manchild once more

I know that this is a shitpost but ironically it's actually true. It all started when they discovered that they can market items by pumping up their social status value and selling that as a service instead, like cigarettes and cars, so you become cooler and compensate for whatever you lack through money. From then on it took a life of its own and became what we have right now - a fully-monetized social life where even buying the cheaper smartphone is seen as a low status move. You're supposed to go out and force yourself into expensive clubs serving you overpriced alcohol while wearing overpriced clothes, while taking pictures of your expensive car or expensive trips around the world from your expensive camera and uploading them to instagram, and anything less than that is considered asocial, so everyone by default just strives to achieve all of them even if that means wasting their savings to do so. It quite literally has become a jewish meme as you said, and ironically, was actually pioneered by no other than an actual jew - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJ3RzGoQC4s

Pretty much anything you do with other people? Partying, going out, chilling, simply going out for coffe? Also why does everyone think socializing means partying and drinking?

>waste of money
I didn't have and didn't need any money in my early 20s, even when I was partying.

>>14578872
>fuck friends
This kind of shit reminds me of Livia Soprano. She didn't want a funeral because she said "what's the point" but deep inside she was just coping with the fact that nobody would come to her funeral. It's the same with faggots who say "fuck friends".. truth is nobody wants to hang out with them because they're so miserable and unable to enjoy absolutely anything.

The only thing thats is important in 20s is to fuck girls. That is the only thing you will potentially regret.
But as long as you are satisfied with what you do right now you will be fine. Most of our regrets are just due to social pressure.

I seriously disagree. There's a lot of things you can't (or let's say shouldn't) do when you're 30+. I party quite often and whenever I spend time in more expensive locations I see 30+ y old wagecucks who obviously spent most of their 20s working their asses off, trying to be young again and it's fucking embarrasing. Lots of times they don't even realize how embarrasing they are.

Nobody is saying that socializing in itself is bad. The issue is that socializing has been so heavily transformed as a capitalist status virtue signaling. The material involved in socializing matter more than the socializing itself. This is why these people turn to virtual world. The material world doesn't matter, and it's the pure love for one other that matters.

>>14578994
>Pretty much anything you do with other people?

I see this sentiment from normies all the time.

Sitting on the sofa alone doing nothing? LOSER.

Sitting on the sofa with someone doing nothing? LIVING MY BEST LIFE.

>>14578973
What a complicated system but it says it's because not all schools are assessing the same level of work. So some schools with harder courses get more marks, which is absolutely fair. A confusing system nonetheless.

>>14579215
Yes, normies are anxious and hypocritical. This is why neets need to hang out more with normies to show them the way.

>>14565629
Based and redpilled. Friends will always leave you, they will move out, get a wife and kids, which will fill their time. You only should hang out with people if you actually enjoy it. There is nothink worse than doing somethink, because society forced you into doing it.

>>14566389
I just get drunk

>>14579215
I never once said doing things alone makes you a loser. Stop putting words in my mouth. Most of the time, doing things with other people is more fun, especially if we're talking about actual activities.

Leave /pol/ once in a while, your faggotry is showing. Just because whites are the most successful race doesn't mean other people are always worse.

>>14579285

>>14579265
>Friends will always leave you
First of all what the fuck is "always" supposed to mean? Just because you had shitty friends, doesn't mean everyone has.. and even if they leave, so what? It's not like all the time you've spent with them were for nothing just because they moved on?
There's nothing wrong with doing things alone. I've been on parties, even vacations by myself because I'm self employed and most of my friends are wagecucks but still I would never go so far and say "fuck friends". That's not being redpilled, that's just being miserable.

>>14579287
>Most of the time, doing things with other people is more fun

Very subjective.

I find doing things alone more enjoyable.

People being there usually detracts from the experience for me.

>>14577368
kek, imagine being this bluepilled

>>14565597
You just need to get it out of your system. I spent the better half of 17-22 getting fucked up every night, clubbing, dealing drugs, sex parties (dirty grindr faggot) and living a party life style. Now I couldn't think of anything worse than going out getting fucked up and having to deal with a bunch of cunts around me. These days I get pleasure out of gyming, staying sober, making money and having only 2 friends. I look back and cringe at the shit I use to do and I honestly don't know how I would down a 1G+ of MDMA with 1000ugs of acid and still want to live the next day. Granted I become a serious xanax and meth addict during the time but been clean for 4 years and learnt shit from it.

>>14579411
how bad is your short-term memory fren? did it recover?

>>14579477
Nope not really, it's still pretty fucked. Probs won't recover. I spent the ages 19 to 22 on 10-15mg of xanax daily with 200mg of valium every night I don't remember those years of my life its just a blur.

>>14579395
The blue pilled opinion is "muh good schools are why some people don't succeed, more money for niggers!" The reality is that educational attainment is genetic, as is eventual life outcomes. Lottery studies in the US quite demonstratively proved that which school a child goes to does not affect his educational success.

Of course we're talking western nations here where the bottom standard is still decent. I went to an expensive private school and i will send my children to state school and use the money instead of property for then to inherit. Alongside private schools now being discriminated against in university application and student loan amount.

>>14579411
>socializing means taking hardcore drugs
okay..

>>14579570
Yeah I'm pretty sure going to a school where there's violence or has incompetent teachers will definitely keep the "genetically good" students motivated.

>>14579647
And I can pretty much find way more articles saying educational level is correlated with wealth

>>14579647
It seemingly doesn't have a negative impact. As said there studies are there, it would technically be on you to explain the phenomenon away.

>>14579681
You can find articles because media is a jewish blue pill feeder, im not sure why you even thought to say you can find articles kek. I can find buzzfeed articles saying blacks invented science.

Here's a proper article that covers research. It's focused on racial attainment but is pertinent.

>>14579234
yep so as I said,

unless you get into a good selective school exam in year 6 (years old)

your pretty much fucked, no matter how hard you work, as you marks are pulled down by your shit non selective school.

Your life is pretty much over at that point.

>>14579234yep so as I said,

your pretty much fucked, no matter how hard you work, as you marks are pulled down by your shit non selective school.

Your life is pretty much over at that point.

>>14579793
But you should do better in that school, as the adjusted mark is because that school is giving easier assessments. It's a bad system in my mind but it's designed to even out unfair marking.

kek. they really normalized binge drinking and alcoholism now

>>14579828
It's the sort of complication that left wing bureaucratic governments produce. They probably listened to one educational radical saying "the problem is we're trying to make an elephant climb a tree! Make schools set their own assessments!" then when it led to wildly different outcomes they listened to another radical saying "well we need to adjust scoring to balance out the background!"

Eventually it obsfucates so much no-one knows what the truth of the situation really is, which works just fine for the government.

>>14579860
Yawn. Wealth disappears as a predictive quality when you control for IQ.

This is high school tier stuff mate. Again i don't care that it's 'page one on google!' Seriously?

>>14579907
the problem is with the selective school test it magnifies your schools ability or crapyness.

so your doomed depending on that one test at age 12

>>14579832
no.

the selective schools always do better, no slective always shit.

and its by a large margin every year

Selective Public>Private>Public

https://bettereducation.com.au/results/hsc.aspx

>>14580090
Yeah it sounds like a terrible system compared to just having universal standards, but they were probably done away with because certain groups weren't doing as well.

However it it magnifies both sides then the hardest schools are unduly punished as well as the easiest schools unduly rewarded.

>>14580116
the best result of a no selective not privatee school

was 50th on the list

fucking 50th!

>>14580109
Probably because even with (((adjustment))) the private school children are substantially more intelligent. Selective public will come out on top because they'll be less harshly judged than private.

At my private school for example we did IB examinations which top schools did, but were judged much harsher than native A-levels, so you would have to be better to get less grades basically. Beyond that many universities explicitly reject most private students. My wife hilariously got told by edinburgh university in interview that they like her type, meaning state school, which they inferred from her northern accent. Her dad then told them she went to a good private school and they walked out. Didn't bother applying.

>>14580152
That's not surprising though, out of how many schools? It's like saying the best performing open to all football team is bottom of the professional league. The selective schools are selecting better students.

>>14580175
no they all sit the same common test

also the IB was found to be 43x easier than the HSC to get a top band mark here so people started doing that to get into uni here, until that loophole has been now fixed

>>14580269
Link to both of those claims. The one you first posted explicitly stated the assessments differed.

There is no one answer to this question that fits everybody
Spending quality time with like-minded people is a very rewarding experience. But there is plenty of compromise involved in maintaining a social life. You gotta do what works for you.

>>14580329
1:28 can get top IB mark which was "made" equivalent to top HSC mark which
1:1200 get (vic, and worse or similar in NSW)

1200/28 = 25x easier than victoria's HSC

and I am looking around for NSW, but NSW is harder than vic by some margin
This means the proportion of maximum 99.95 ATARs awarded to HSC students is effectively capped at 0.05 per cent of their population age cohort, while the number of perfect ATARs awarded to IB students is unlimited, provided students achieve an overall mark of 45. (The situation for Victoria’s Certificate of Education students is very similar.)

Of 2732 Australian students who completed the 2018 IB Diploma, at least 28, or one in 98, achieved a 99.95 ATAR.

fuck wierd, ok here is the article second one, the link works for me
Eight International Baccalaureate students at one Sydney private school scored the top ATAR of 99.95 compared to six HSC students at James Ruse Agricultural High School, raising questions about whether the alternative qualification gives students an advantage in university admission.

The diploma, which is not allowed to be taught in NSW public schools, was offered at 15 private schools last year as an alternative to the HSC.

When results were released on Saturday, 11 of the state’s 450 IB students, or 2.44 per cent, received the top score of 45, which translates to an Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank of 99.95.

By comparison, 48 out of almost 55,000 ATAR-eligible HSC students achieved the same result, a rate of 0.087 per cent. While the IB students make up a tiny sample of the wider community of school-leavers, the year’s results suggest they were 28 times more likely to achieve an ATAR of 99.95.

Right, so as far as i can see it's hardly controlling for school. A select group, likely top performing schools move to IB and their results are compared to all schools. Now im not saying IB isn't easier, may well be. However it can't be said from that information.

>>14581259
to an extent your right ... but it actually may make it harder .... than that


an unlimited people can get top IB mark

hsc 0.05% division of cohort for each mark in HSC

>>14581458
Yes i think percentage based marking is also poor. If you want more student differentiation make an extra grade, but exams should be as standardized as humanly possible.

The only people who push against it are artificially trying to bolster some group.

>>14565597
I go out once or twice a week with people that are kind of friends and we mostly talk, that's about it. I had some good experiences going out to bars/clubs yet never really enjoyed it.
I believe I am an asocial introvert, I don't enjoy socializing. I never initiate but accept most of the times I'm invited (which isn't a lot obviously). Do I feel like I'm wasting my time? I mean, I'm always wasting my time. My childhood had some pivotal fucked up moments and I know I'll never trust another person or be able to form any sort of real connection.

well, i don't know about food, but when it comes to sex... let's put up the idea that having oral sex over kissing (even during group intercourse) is a sign of autism. or at the very least, putting a dick into the woman's mouth is definitely a sign of psychopathy, and thus, autism. which makes sense, since psychopaths have no sense for (empathetic) emotions, but are entirely sex-driven instead. or let's assume that narcissists would only ever demand being given head and pleasure, but never give any in return. then, via induction, putting a dick into the vagina, too, could be a sign of autism? relative to some yet undefined superior way of love and bonding. the same way you would consider putting a tongue into her mouth less autistic than putting a dick into it. in which case sex in its entirety could be considered autistic from an anti-autistic point of view, since, if autistic psychopaths are sex-driven... rejecting sex as autistic is simply the next logical emotional step. and instead you...? what do you do? i am sure in the future, technological advances will allow for way more sophisticated love and bonding than primal sexuality as it is being pursued today. you know... conveying sentiments holding actual value. (this doesn't mean rejecting "muh humanity," either. it simply means progressing and pursuing more meaningful interaction and love.)

so then... can you apply the psychopath bit to food, too? i mean, you clearly have a very one-dimensional view on eating. and maybe you have no deeper and substantial appreciation for the food you are eating. are you inserting a penis into your mouth? or are you kissing the food? think about it, because i don't feel like it.

Chart makes sense. A person who always pursues novelty would have difficulty committing to anything, whether it's a job, person, or hobby.

It's hard to find a good friend these days.

I went to a shit violent school and I ended up successful. Anecdotal but I'm leaning towards school doesn't matter

It is if you have good friends that share your values. If you don’t have those find some. Read the thread and it seemed like a lot of you guys are writing off friends but I’ll tell you that cultivating a good group of friends in essential to lasting happiness as much as doing meaningful work and having a mate, a family etc. Good friends are allies, they can teach you things and vice versa. Think of them like your tribe.

turning 25 in a couple weeks and cut off all my high school friends years ago despite living just up the street from my old neighborhood. The only thing my old buddies would ever want to talk about was gossiping about who is married to who now and reminiscing over shit that happened in football practice/games. It just got so stale, we all gotta move on in life at some point if we want to make it. Can't let people drag you down just cause the existed nearby when you were young and dumb.

It's really is like that, which is why I hate socializing with most people from the past. I want to talk to talk about various interesting things like they do in podcasts but most people don't even fully engage or change the topic as soon as they can.
