/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Everyone knows /jp/ is packed full of twixters, parasite singles, NEETs, and people like Sudo that also get SSI benefits by basically gaming the system. It's also clear /jp/ has quite a few underage posters on a regular basis.

Personally, I dropped out of high school in 1994 and did nothing but play video games for a few years. Eventually at the urging of family members I finished up school, entered college, and worked shitty restaurant and tech support jobs to pay my way.

After college I landed a job at IBM and enjoyed a brief stint of success and independence before I boomeranged right back home and from 2003 to 2006 I lived with my mom in a tiny trailer and worked crap IT jobs again.

Since 2006, I have moved to the west cost of the United States, landed a pretty enjoyable career, bought a house, paid off my S2000, etc. Yet despite my mild success I have never been in a real relationship. For some reason I find staying at home with my games, electronics, and weeaboo shit to be a lot more enjoyable and comfortable than playing the social games everyone places so much value on. It's possible I have social anxiety, but so what? I'll just do what makes me comfortable and happy.

While I agree that it's frustrating to have to pay for other people's welfare (see fed tax line on pay stub), it's also not quite fair to simply tell everyone to grow a pair and go to work. Some people are really legitimately sick, terrified to leave the house, unable to interact with others, etc. Are you seriously saying it would be better for these people to die? That's really horrible.
