/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I see myself as more of a Travis Bickle man, myself.

>tends to get too emotional, can't take it easy

>/jp/

Firstly, nobody on /jp/ actually WANTS to go to Gensokyo.

Just think about it. Do you really want to see a 3DPD Reimu? She doesn't wear deodorant, is probably pretty messy when she goes on the rag, and there is no quality of life in Gensokyo compared to what we have now.

Secondly, we're not childish.

Thirdly, most of us used to think a lot. We just decided that we might as well stay inside and not think about societal shit because nothing is going to ever change.

Obama, yes we can bring change! Oh I can't do that because of lobbyists, if I do this I'll lose votes, and the cycle continues.

well let's go through the list

>people tell them they are childish and need to grow up

off to neverland, I guess.

>Secondly, we're not childish.
flanfly and meat/Saten threads and similar posts of that nature aren't childish?

I am indie.

>>8065006
Having some fun on the internet and how a person actually behaves are different things.

Me for example, I am not childish at all but I enjoy Saten and meat threads. I dont understand the joy of flanfly though.

Is it childish to wish to be the little girl?

Matches me 110%.

>>8065044
Why are you even here if you only enjoy the anime shitposts?

>>8064967
> She doesn't wear deodorant
dosent bother me. I like the a womans natural musk.
>is probably pretty messy when she goes on the rag

What do you mean on the rag? If I am to assume her period then that is fine too. Hell, I wouldn't mind cleaning her up afterwords either~ with my mouth

>>8065048
Because they only shitposts so far have been of good characters. Saten, Kuroko, Meat, Homura, they are great characters.

>>8065048
That's all /jp/ really is.

Here's mine.

>loves big throbbing dicks
Sounds about right.

>>8065059
And here's mine.

Only 50% indie? I'm disappointed.

DIE LIEBE KANN NICHT WARTEN!

Seems reasonablly accurate. Not that I would ever take these online tests seriously or anything.

>messy,
>outgoing,
>open,
>self revealing,
>ambivalent about chaos,
>unpredictable,
>not good at saving money,
100% untrue I save a lot money lol
>social,
>likes large parties,
>likes to stand out,
>risk taker,
>quick to make friends,
>does not like to be alone,
>rash,
>fame seeking,
>sarcastic,
?????????????????????????????
>craves attention,
>social chameleon,
I don't get that at all
>low self control,
>food lover,
NO!!!! I eat I lose. I hate to eat food and I have to control myself to not throw my food without eating it
>not rule conscious,
>weird,
That test is weird
>assertive,
>not a perfectionist,
>anti-authority,
>thrill seeker,
>vain,
>likes to fit in,
>reckless,
>emotionally sensitive,
>leisurely,
>trusting

What a waste of time. Oh well.

wow, what a completely meritless thread
- implications
- including the implication that the board's users are the topic of the board
- ad for a pop-psychology cult site
- online iq test

yeah, fuck your shit. I got your "Peter Pan complex" right here.

>>8065209
Hey cool, you used bulletpoints with hyphens instead of greentext shit! I like your style.

I seriously don't get how it's possible to not have a Peter Pan complex. Youth is the fucking best stage of life, there's no question about it. If it's so good being an adult, why are we not seeing any eroge where the protagonist is a man in his 30s with a wife and 2 kids?

Let me tell you why. Because no one wants that life. They just settle for it and convince themselves it's what they want.

>Opposite traits
>Same rating
wut

Stupid test. Seems about right though.

>messy, depressed, introverted, feels invisible, does not make friends easily, nihilistic, reveals little about self, fragile, dark, bizarre, feels undesirable, dislikes leadership, reclusive, weird, irritable, frequently second guesses self, unassertive, unsympathetic, low self control, observer, worrying, phobic, suspicious, unproductive, avoidant, negative, bad at saving money, emotionally sensitive, does not like to stand out, dislikes large parties, submissive, daydreamer

That's largely correct, but...

>submissive

What?

>bad at saving money

I was perfectly clear that I take care of my finances well in every question about them and just said that my life wouldn't be worse if I were poorer (I know, I used to be), and this is what I get? Bloody stupid.

The language employed in the results sections of these tests tends sometimes towards value judgements rather than scientific analysis.

-bizarre
-weird
-tough
-sarcastic?

Just some examples.

I already know I'm a manchild. Obviously I don't care.

Now I am going to have a cup of tea and some delightful cake and laugh at all the superior adults with their jobs and responsibilities. Oh, how I wish I could be like them!

neat freak, organized, worrying, phobic, fears the unknown, irritable, pessimistic, emotionally sensitive, fears chaos, risk averse, fragile, unadventurous, depressed, frequently second guesses self, likes to fit in, does not like to stand out, perfectionist, hard working, does not like to be alone, clingy, dependent, practical, ordinary, cautious, takes precautions, good at saving money, suspicious, heart over mind, busy, altruistic

depressive? me?

>suspicious of others until they have proven themselves trustworthy, more doubt than belief, preoccuppied with death and suffering, fears being harmed or controlled, bitter, looks for hidden meaning in things, personality is centered around low self esteem issues, feels misunderstood, thinks people would not like them if they really knew them, defensive, often experiences disgust, love-hate relationships with most things, likes to test people's loyalty, thinks life is overrated, focuses on suffering, feels like an outsider, existentially depressed, does not trust what people say, prone to shame, suffers from depression, knows the dark side of life very well, attracted to things associated with sadness, would rather remain alone than risk rejection, hard to get to know, makes enemies, loner

I can't be the only extremely paranoid guy here.

messy, disorganized, not rule conscious, rebellious, rash, weird, ambivalent about chaos, likes bizarre things, anti-authority, not good at saving money, not a perfectionist, leaves many things unfinished, low self control, strange, desires more attention, romantic daydreamer, abstract, impractical, unproductive, leisurely, likes the unknown

It also said I am an extrovert which is weird because if I have to spend time with people it takes days alone in quiet to get back to normal.

>Stability results were moderately high which suggests you are relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.

>Orderliness results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly organized, reliable, neat, and hard working at the expense of flexibility, efficiency, spontaneity, and fun.

>Extraversion results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.

>trait snapshot:
>rarely irritated, positive, tough, non phobic, fearless, likes the unknown, self reliant, high self control, confident, trusting, strong instincts, prudent, optimistic, willful, likes parties, prefers a specialized career, takes charge, altruistic, strong, high self concept, adventurous, practical, thoughtful

I think it's somewhat wrong about the extraversion. I'm not afraid to speak out my opinions, but I don't like parties or socialisation for the sake of it. Also practical... well... I'm a really theoretical/up-in-the-clouds kind of a person...

>Stability results were moderately high which suggests you are relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.

>Orderliness results were low which suggests you are overly flexible, improvised, and fun seeking at the expense too often of reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.

>Extraversion results were low which suggests you are very reclusive, quiet, unassertive, and secretive.
introverted, secretive, messy, depressed, does not like leadership, somewhat nihilistic, observer, does not make friends easily, unassertive, feels invisible, feels undesirable, hates large parties, does not like to stand out, leisurely, suspicious, submissive, abstract, unpredictable, intellectual, likes rain, likes the unknown, negative, weird, not a risk taker, unadventurous, avoidant, strange

>submissive
Who wants to dominate me?

>more caring, more honest, more generous, prude, more modest, drawn to public service, more purposeful
dayumm /jp/, why are you not religious yet? They are obviously superior to all.

>>8065397

Same results here, man.

Why was I considered an intellectual when I only had a 30% intellectual score? This thing sucks.

A Challenger Appears

Hnnng.

"does not make friends easily, secretive, introverted, reclusive, observer, dislikes leadership, somewhat socially awkward, does not like to stand out, dislikes large parties, values solitude, solitary, avoidant, ambivalent about fitting in, not dominant, unassertive, suspicious, prudent, unadventurous, worrying, weird, intellectual, frequently second guesses self"

>Anti-Authoritarian
>Individualist
>Intellectual
>Avoidant

So I'm an armchair loner freedom fighter? Sounds about right.

Now the question is how your favorite Touhou would do on this test.

>>8064948
Sort of fits me, except for

>believes they deserve to have whatever they want

Not true. I do tend to live somewhat like a leech, just taking what I need to live from my parents, but this isn't because I feel I deserve it. It's simply because it's available and I don't really have any other choice, if I want to live this way.

>gets attention through negative behavior

Not at all. Maybe when I was younger, but these days I tend to avoid getting any sort of attention directed towards myself whatsoever.

... so ?

I hate living. They make the idea of not liking being controlled as "anti-authority." I would never speak out against someone above me, I just don't like being told what to do, but will do it if there is no other choice.

>>8065537
Isn't not wanting to be told what to do regardless of what you're actually being told anti-authority by definition?

>>8065543
Yes, you're probably right, but the way I interpreted "anti-authority" would be doing things such as speaking against authorities, not doing as told by superiors intentionally, causing a scene, etc. I would never do that, I just feel more comfortable doing something on my own free will. But if anti-authority simply means not liking being told what to do regardless, then yes, I would fall into that category.

>>8065565
Yeah, I think it's the difference between just having a slight anti-authority preference, and actually acting anti-authority.

A lot of people would say they don't like being told what to do, I think.

Well, that sums me up nicely...

Go ahead and laugh

According to this chart, I shouldnt have even post this. But I felt way too bad recently

>>8065978
I got the same, but hey, the age of wizardry is no longer far off, right? ;_;

Es like I'm really on feisbook.

>would rather live in their head than the real world
Can you blame people? It's not their fault the world is shit, and with so many stimuli these days it's much easier to slip into a world of fantasy than it used to be.

>wants success to just happen to them
Considering this is subjective you could just say "well if they're doing what they want then they're successful."

It's not like you could ever be great without inherit talent. And by your 20s you're well aware if you were ever good at anything or not.

I can agree with everything here accept being dangerous, I'm a really nice guy, even if I do put my needs before other's.

Also, tough. Fuck yeah. Also my capcha is muscle stsuenc.

That's a nice opinion there, anon.
For me the world is great.

>>8066185
I also got 'tough', though I feel 'resilient' is more accurate

I want to try making one of these with made up disorders just to watch people think they are more broken than everyone else.

>libertarian,
I'm offended.

I guess 10% and 90% are the upper and lower bounds. I can't imagine myself getting a non-rock-bottom score on extraversion or religiousness.
Pretty surprised it didn't say things like "negative, depressed" like it did for the rest of you.
