No, but then again sweden as some S-tier welfare at the moment. so i have no pressure.

Sure, I got a job a couple months ago.

Some stupid girl saw my Remilia tattoo and googled it. Now I feel as though this girl needs to be removed, like infection from a wound.

I'll probably quit soon.

Keep a picture of her in your wallet, like soldiers once did when they went to war. Fight the good fight, anon.

>>6526029
You could always carry a picture of her in your wallet.

Nope, waiting to get my driver's license and start going to the gym so i'll have the ability to lift some boxes. Planning to apply to some computer hardware in the city.

>>6526036
Post pics of said tattoo, if it's real.

>>6526041

I'm not sure why I have to prove anything. The thread is about employment, not tattoos.

Actually, I got lucky and landed a job as a web programmer / designer not 5 minutes from where I live about 2 weeks ago. So far it's been tight...I don't show up until 10am, I take an hour-long lunch break around 1pm, then I leave at 5pm. Mostly just doing HTML/CSS/Javascript/PHP changes to websites and photoshop right now. Office just got its first Macbook which I'm to use to develop iPhone apps (yeah, ugh). No real dress code to speak of (casual/business), I work while high, and get to listen to music on my headphones. Tomorrow is my first paycheck and I'm really stoked.

The whole thing has given me greater appreciation of my free time...which I still have plenty of. My waifu needs a man to bring home the cash money (see pic)

>>6526029

>work

Get the hell out of my board, normalfag scum.

you get the fuck away from byakuren

I started a job last week, for the first time in many years of doing nothing. I've only worked for one week, and to be honest, I don't mind it (I'm sure I'll come to hate it). But so far, it is OK. And I have extra money to throw at my waifu, so it helps get me through the day.

Just think of how happy you'll be to see her when you get home!

>>6526050

The man wants to murder a co-worker because she found out who Remilia Scarlet is.

And you say 'normalfag'.

>>6526046
that is classy

>>6526046
It's just the name Remilia, why the fuck did she google it? Scarlet isn't even on there, there's no way she found out with just that.

You told her.

>>6526068
No /a/ccounting for taste I suppose. /a/ only wants to have NEET roleplaying threads, not threads for actual NEETs

>>6526074
Holy shit, nevermind that. I just googled "Remilia".

I thought it was an actual possible name, I guess not.

>>6526074

If you google Remilia the entire first page is nothing but touhou

>>6526074
What? When I google 'Remilia' the first result I get is Touhou Wiki, I get pictures and videos of Remilia Scarlet and I get a whole ream of other links for Remilia Scarlet.

At least actually try Googling it first.

>>6526074
Even 35 pages into the Google search it's all results for Scarlet.

How can a name sound so plausible BUT ACTUALLY NOT EXIST

>>6526101

Because there is only one Remilia Scarlet.

I work for a large defence contractor, I have my own wife\waifu's visage on another laptop that I keep open periodically. I've gotten the occaisional odd glance by a passerby or supervisor who happened by my cubicle, but honestly, who gives a damn? No sane person could do this job anyway.

>>6526101
Oh fuck that shit. My daughter will hereby be named Remilia, just so it'll be a real name. I'll also teach her creepy things like answering the question "What's your name, sweetheart?" with an eerie smile and "I have many names~!".

>>6526148
Living the dream.

Holy crap. you guys are right. Remilia isn't a real name! I thought it was...

>>6526137
I like your idea, but how do you propose to acquire said daughter?

>>6526167
My plans will come to fruition unless my girlfriend meets an untimely demise in her perilous line of work. Well... my creepy little girl part anyway. I don't know how she feels about the name "Remilia".

I can't believe it, Remilia is not a common name at all.

I'll have to rectify this, it's a rather charming name for a girl of good breeding.

>>6526183
Anon : "let's name her remila!"
3d girl : "after that creepy little vampire from the game you like? I think not."
Anon : (sad face)

>>6526197
Funny story. I met my girlfriend on Ragnaok Online thirteen years ago. I don't think she'd have a problem with the name even after learning of it's origin.

>>6526197

Maybe you'll have more freedom with the middle name? Kelly Remilia? Susie Remilia? I still like the sound of that, and I'd take it as a second best.

>>6526227
>Trendy Names

No one in my family has been named those abominations, my mother scorned them even more than my dad.

Fucking Mallrat names.

years later :
"daddy, why does everyone tease me at at school?"
"Because your mom's a bitch, kellyorsuzie."

Joined the military. More specifically, the Navy. I realize that they are never going to give me time to play my eroge nor watch anime and read manga. Extremely terrible choice. On the plus side, I have money now. That's... kinda good.
I still don't have time for eroge so fuck my life.

You have no clue how long it took me to find this in the depths of my touhou pictures folder.

>>6526261
On the plus side you no longer need any of that since you have a career, money, guaranteed retirement, and plenty of women always wanting to marry military guys regardless of your personality. Congrats, you made it.

>>6526261
Is that you, Kevin?

>>6526276

You shouldn't be congratulating him.

>>6526269
I remeber that thread that was awhile back.

>>6526269
obvious obama birth certificate is obvious

>>6526261
Yeah, well its not all that bad. At least you didn't join the Marines...
fffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuccck why /jp/ why?!

actually I'd be lieing if I said it was that bad. I have plenty of free time as is, but its subject to change.

>>6526261

So you have money, with nothing to spend it on.

>>6526280
No, I joined the Marines not the navy.... Bill?

Normalfags all up in this bitch.

I've been NEET since dropping out of college in 2006.

CAN YOU BEAT MY RECORD?! I THINK NOT >:[

>>6526293
People who could really use money never have it.
People who have tons of money can't find enough stupid unnecessary shit to waste it on.
Struggle in your youth only to finally be successful once you're too old to fully enjoy any of it.

The paradoxes of human life.

On the flip side, I'm contemplating getting on SSI, since I know I qualify and probably won't be hired (and if I am, will last a month at the maximum) for any job in the area. My soul was already crushed over a decade ago, but I have to cut the tethers that make me want to avoid being a welfare case. Though I suppose that doesn't make sense because I'm just getting welfare from my family and not the state. I'd have killed myself but that would be troublesome for my family until I'm living alone. Once I get alone I can do it if I ever feel like it.

>>6526276
>plenty of women always wanting to marry military guys regardless of your personality
So, in short, bitches and whores? That's not a real waifu material at all! All hail 2D!

>>6526297
>>6526289
Hey, bro. Someone told us in boot camp that Marines were able to take naps during their boot camp. Is that shit true?

>>6526029

Congrats on the employment.

I've had great luck with employment. I keep getting promoted, and this year I've broken 100k.

My health has gone to shit so I can't really enjoy it, but whatever. That's life.

haven't worked in over 3 years. I'll get to it eventually ... maybe.

>>6526293
Great isn't it? I'd love to buy figurines but I barely have any space to put shit in. Officers would be taken aback during random room inspections AND I'd be showing my power level to my roommate. Then again, my roommate is a faggot who plays Guild Wars and still says "groovy," has a gay little voice, and has a laugh like he came from Revenge of the Nerds.

On the plus side, the most hilarious thing I've found is a Strike Witches DVD in the Navy store on base.

whoawhoawhoa...any NAVAIR or NAVICP folks (Norfolk Region) up in here?

>>6526349
NNPTC bitch, here. ;_;

Goddamn it guys, I was planning on possibly naming my child remilia. I bet in a few years, its gonna be a common fucking name with anime loving parents.

>>6526383
given the low probability of anyone who actually knows who remilia is reproducing, I severely doubt this.

>>6526339
How does the military treat the viewing of porn? I know my friend said he and his buddies on board ship (aircraft carrier I think, it's been years since I've spoken with him) said they watched hentai all the time.

>>6526383
It would probably be a little awkward to send your girl to a highschool where there's 900 students, and every tenth girl is named after a Touhou. Of course you as a parent wouldn't really know unless your little miss Remilia came home talking about her new friends Flandre, Yuuka, Nazrin, Patchouli and Marisa.

>>6526389
Who knows? Touhou is pretty freaking poplar, and normalfag gamers might get a hold of it... who am I kidding, no normal fags play those hard games.

>>6526394
well Marisa is a real and popular name, so it wouldn't surprise me.

>>6526394
That would be cute.
They could have a little cosplay contest, too!
I better stop before the pedofags get in on this...

>>6526029
Imagine you're doing it for her to be worthy. Not even a touhou wants a pitiful NEET as her husbando

>>6526394

Marisa isn't really that rare a name though. Although if something like that actually happened to me I might giggle.

>>6526391
I wouldn't know. I just got out of boot camp around 2 months ago so I'm still fresh but there are some weird ass people here so I wouldn't doubt it. Hell, I've heard some weird stories so watching hentai really wouldn't be bad at all. Don't know how they'd react to loli hentai though.

>>6526324

lol... really? Watch full metal jacket and tell me. Shit is essentially the same, when officers aren't around. No, no naps when officers appear. Just less abuse.

>>6526349
nope.jpg
sigint.

I will name my daughter Marisa.
I will move to a town where we will have a neighbor named Alice.
I will teach Marisa to steal things from Alice.
??????
Profit.

>>6526389

>you realize Touhou will die with our generation

>>6526410
I don't know about you, but I think having my little 4~6 year old girl dressing up like Nazrin would make me HNNNNNNNNNG.

Way to go guys.

Being horrible parents forcing your children to do crap they don't even know about for your own selfish enjoyment because having an odd name and being laughed at school wasn't enough already.

>>6526433
No, no. See, that's why we name our children after Touhous. Guaranteed one will ask "daddy, where did my name come from?" We show them Touhou, they like, the fandom continues.

>>6526445

I'd much rather society come closer to my tastes than conforming to someone else's. Our numbers are big enough for this to happen.

>>6526314
Beat it? No.
Match it? Yes.

Finished highschool in 2006, never been employed.
Living at home, using interest from trust fund to buy figures.
...What can you invest in with $50k?
The stock market is scary as fuck.

>>6526454
>Our numbers are big enough for this to happen.

Not at all.

I've been looking for a job to support my hobby but I can't find anything. I'm trying to start up a blog and get money from Adsense but that's not going too well because I don't have a lot to talk about and no one reads my blog.

Life in the city is tough. The rent is too damn high.

>>6526456

I am now patiently waiting for a stock market lesson...

>>6526445
Wow, this sounds like just about every parent ever.

>>6526456

Invest in me. Just a little.
I know you won't, even though I have something good I need to get done. You're in your right mind to make the decision to ignore me.

>>6526425
>>6526391
>>6526339
yeah I wouldn't be surprised. The school I'm at has all military branches, and some of the navy and air force guys... yeah, I'm guessing a shitton of them are weeaboos. Or at least play World of Warcraft all day.

and here I am, hidden in the Marines. No one would ever suspect my power level. I feel I've made a good choice.

>>6526391
I remember a story from /k/ or possibly somewhere else. The guy was in the navy and had managed to bring some porn doujins with him. He hid them somewhere, and one day they went missing. Over the course of his deployment or whatever he would find individual pages taped up around the ship.

>>6526482
That's EXACTLY my point anon.

The name part not included on that though.

>>6526489
Wow that sounds pretty awful just from reading.

>>6526489
haha, only in the military do you find high school level harassment still carried out by fully grown adult men.

>>6526484
I probably would if I knew you in person and thought you had real potential.

>>6526466
My powerlevel is like...9....but I'll give you the two little morsels I have :
1) Consider joining an investment club.
2) Listen to marketplace. You'll start to get an idea about what business people look at. Especially listen to the weekly marketplace money podcasts. They often have callers asking about investment advice. As they say, though, consult your financial professional before making any decisions.
http://marketplace.publicradio.org/

>>6526504
You find high school harassment done by full grown "mature" people everywhere anon. The military are just in a higher level of harassment.

Ever worked in a office or heard how awful the social interaction is? People want to know all about everyone and take advantage of everything you do, they also wear a mask all the time and if you put your guard down for a minute you will be used somehow or laughed at when you are not looking. Yeah people are pretty disgusting.

>>6526505

I know. There probably isn't a way to satisfactorily prove myself to you, either.

>>6526496
Right, I was excluding the name in that as well, though there are parents out there who have named their children strange things. I remember one anon talking about naming his child "Anemone" after someone in Eureka 7. There was this black woman talking about naming her daughter "Syphilis". Oh, lack of education is amusing. At least running with Touhou names wont end up randomly naming daughters after diseases or an amoeban sea creature.

>>6526510
Ah, thank you, I'll look into this investment club thing...

Guys, if we're all so ronery and NEET, why don't we start a business together, some of us?

OH WAIT

LAST TIME I STARTED AN ENTERPRISE WITH SOMEONE I MET ON 4CHAN, I GOT ROBBED FOR $1650 AND ALMOST WENT TO PRISON FOR 25 YEARS (seriously)

I developed physical problems and panic attacks from getting a job and being around people. I quit and a mental health specialist that I was forced to see says I'm the worst case they've seen so far.

>>6526518
The Anemone is actually a type of flower, and is a perfectly legit, although rare, name of Greek descent.

Syphilis though, that's hilarious. I feel pretty bad for that poor kid.

>>6526528
Full story please.
Other peoples misery makes me feel less alone for some reason.

>>6526528
I told you about those pre-teen modeling sites.

>>6526530
It's both, really.

tp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anemone_(disambiguation)

>>6526529
Elaborate.

I happen to have social anxiety, occasional panic attacks, and what others tell me is a severe case of phone phobia (I think it's mild, personally).

>>6526528

What business would you propose? I have many skills and aspirations, but there's no way I can interact with typical people in a standard business environment, which is why I've been unable to get a job.

Though businesses don't always require money, or a significant amount of money, to get started. It won't hurt to share your ideas.

>a type of flower, and is a perfectly legit, although rare, name of Greek descent.
Learn somethin' new every day. Studying marine biology kind of limited my insight on anemone to "sea" anemone. I'll let that one slide.

>>6526529

Are you me?

Heh...Once had an interesting Convo while in the Navy with my CO (an O-5) about YKK. What a Small World we live in.

>>6526512


well, it helps that a lot of personnel just graduated high school.

>>6526050

Yes. Also I put my waifu on wallpaper on my phone. Feels good

>>6526782
>/jp/ - Arms Trafficking

I'm the anon who posted the other day about an impending loss of computer access in my family's misguided attempt to "normalize" me, or at least get me a job. The anticipation is killing me, and I don't think I can stand being without my computer. But getting the SSI benefits I qualify for will apparently take a few months, and I'll be on the streets in a few months if I have no job. And if I have a job I probably won't qualify for SSI benefits, except MAYBE if the duration of my employment is ridiculously short as it always has been.

Thinking I might just go to bed and never get up. Not even kidding. Just piss and shit and starve and dehydrate and die slowly, all in this pathetic bed of mine. What little I have to hold is going to leave me, and I won't be able to cope.

>>6527205
You can have a job while on SSI. You just lose $1 of benefits for every $2 you earn I believe. I'm not sure if having a job would disqualify you outright; another anon would be able to answer that better than I.

>>6527205
I think if you quit or get fired from your job and blame it on anxiety or whatever that actually will help your case with SSI. If you want to suicide though I wouldn't blame you, the world is total shit all around so it's a legit choice.

>>6527237
>>6527245

I guess that sounds ok. It'll probably look better that I'm trying, that I've applied all over, that nobody even gives me an interview, that just applying and calling in places is a strain on my social skills, etc. I also have a history that's pretty strong for my case. The only problem is that I'd have to interact with people to even get started on the path towards SSI benefits.

Computer is being packed and stored today. I have a few hours before this happens. Halp?

>>6529873
Good job, just keep trying. Hang in there, and you'll be back hanging out with us in no time.

>>6529849
I'm not so sure about that.

I'm now a part-time student pending a full-time acceptance to a grad program. And I failed my first midterm!

Luckily, the school won't consider this semester's grades or whether I drop a class in making their decision. Still, fucking shit. I studied for that goddamn test.

>>6526465
I started up a blog just now for this money, hurr hurr.
I'm far too humble to advertise it though, so I'll let it lavish in obscurity for now and then wait.
