/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I wish my parents were dead.

It's a cultural thing. In a lot of countries it's the norm to live with your parents until you've saved up enough to buy your own place.

Living with your parents and NEET-ing is stigmatized most everywhere, though. Unless your family is really wealthy, or you're female, then you can get away with it a bit more.

Because western society is a infunctional clusterfuck.

The rest of the world isn't that much better. Really, it's just different flavors of shit, no matter where you go really.

>>8444976

That's what everyone in Southern Italy does, though.

They just live off welfare and relax.

I lost my virginity when I was 11, nerd.

Who cares? It's also abnormal to be a virgin and to not be violating global rule 2, but we all do it.

>Why do people stigmatize you for living at home with your parents, /jp/?
But I don't.

As soon as a male turns 18, he's expected to have a driver's license and a fancy car, his own apartment, a full-time job, a wide circle of friends, a girlfriend or at least an active sex life, and be on the way to earning a bachelor degree at a private university.

And if he lacks any of these, he's a loser who fails completely at life.

Fucking America.

Because in america there was a massive push to fill out all our land. Something hard to do if everyone is bunched up in one spot. That's also why we had so many immigrants. Our culture was entirely based around taming and settling all our empty land.

it doesnt count if it was with ur old fat mom nerd

>full time job
>bachelor degree at a private university
and his fancy car is a Lamborghini Gallardo. Or a Ferrari. Or Bugatti. Or Maserati.

It's a Murrikan thing.

>>8445363
...why are they all italian cars?
is this some conspiracy

In the UK the government gives every lowlife NEET a house, even if they could just move back in with their parents.

I'm 25 and I still exactly how I lived when I was 5. My mother still more or less treats me the same way too. I'll be a loser among losers 5ever (that's more than 4ever).

>>8444958
It's also still common as fuck in Asia.

>>8445401
oh right that kopipe.
I just now noticed the car inconsistency. heh

My mother encourages me to live with her and my father until I'm at least 40. Too bad my mother is crazy and wants me to stay so she can change my life!

Don't worry, /jp/. I won't shun you for your ignorance.

>>8445409
Yeah but if you're an Asian living in the USA people still comment like it's some sort of weird thing living with your family past 18.

Being white, my mom pretty much tried to force me out of the house as soon as possible. My Filipino friend is 26 and his parents would have a heart attack if he tried to move away.

The western world is slowly becoming less family centered.

>...in the USA people still comment like it's some sort of weird thing living with your family past 18.
only the retards with bad relationships with their patents say that. smart people save their money for post school education, a nice car and a future down payment on a house. that said, 95% of Americans are retards.

>>8445391
North American maybe. Canada looks at it the same way. Suits me though. My brothers an aspie drug addict so the less I have to be around him the better.

So is it okay to be 23 and still living at home? I kind of wish I can help out with the bills, but I don't want to work. I'm a very cost effective pet who eats 1 small meal a day so I'm not a huge burden I suppose. I can't get hungry when I don't do shit all day.

I'd like to help, but I can't. I have made a lot of doctors appoints to deal with my adhd/depression/dysthymia and seen psychiatrists and psychologists to no avail but haven't actually gotten around exploiting the government into giving me money to "help me get better". I'm not sure what to do.

>but haven't actually gotten around exploiting the government into giving me money to "help me get better". I'm not sure what to do.
I think you just answered your own question.

>>8445569
If you were working it would be ok. But if you're being a parasite who doesn't "want" to work, then fuck you.

>>8445586
I don't know the first thing about doing that, and all the paperwork seems like a huge hassle.

>>8444993
>not be violating global rule 2, but we all do it.
I've never violated global rule 2.

>>8445509
My Muslim friend just got a full ride to MIT, but he turned it down because it would mean moving out of state where he couldn't live with his family.

Me on the other hand is constantly working history to entertain the notion of moving away. Why is America so difficult?

>>8445597
I didn't ask for any of these mental health issues.

>>8445601
Stop being an idiot and get a full ride to MIT too.

You better hurry up:

>Proposed changes in the definition of autism would sharply reduce the skyrocketing rate at which the disorder is diagnosed and might make it harder for many people who would no longer meet the criteria to get health, educational and social services, a new analysis suggests.

I want to move out but I don't want to work (actually I kinda want but just thinking about going to an interview or dealing with other people makes me piss my little sheltered girl panties). My only options are either keep living with mommy and daddy or become a hobo.

>>8445640
You could become a fag.

>>8445640
Why stick around to become a hobo when you can make a portal to Gensokyo?

>>8445626
This, the program is very likely to be cut, so even if they don't autism block you, very soon there won't even be any autism bucks to give out.

After the elections in november kiss any hope you had goodbye. Get on the gravytrain now and save up, that may very well be the last handout you ever see.

>>8445647
That method won't cut it. Don't give out shit advice asshole.

>>8445655
>>8445626
I live in Canada and not the US. I'm not sure how this affects me.

>>8445647
Being a hobo is pretty entertaining. Always leaves you guessing.

>>8445667
I don't believe the canadian program is in any danger whatsoever, it is however much harder to get on.
