Is your job at least meaningful?

>>8696625
No, it's just a call center.
Occasionally we do data entry, that's my favorite part because I don't need to interact with anyone, I can even put on my headphones and listen to some music while doing it

I try to enjoy my free time as a NEET, but I usually wind up thinking about how much I want to kill myself. But today I will attempt to crack a smile just for you, OP.

>>8696639
I have anxiety and I can't work in places where a lot of people talk to me at once. What're the job titles on work like this? Any real skills you need for this?

>>8696656
I don't know, I only got it because the guy in charge owned my dad a favor.

>>8696647
I fell exactly the same, but my PC and net sucks, so I usually get bored a lot (not bored enough to go do something productive though).

I actually started working at a call center too after dropping out of college and NEETing it up as long as my not-so-understanding parents would have me (about a year and a half).

As long as you're not an idiot and show up for work you'll probably stand out. Do a good job and you can probably find a promotion quickly. 3 years later I'm in client management, it's stressful but I have a lot of autonomy and some spare time occasionally. I'm actually posting this from work. Salary isn't that impressive, but it works out to about $15/hr in wage language and I'm due for another promotion by the end of the quarter (this month).

I hope you find this encouraging, but I will definitely sympathize that this shit sucks. Good luck, soldier.

When I was NEET, I did nothing but jack off, browse the web, and watch anime. I miss my anime time. That reminds me, I need to jack off.

>don't waste it

How can you not waste time being a NEET when the very act itself is a waste of time?

>>8696639
Been there, done that. Call centres/telesales are the worst type of jobs ever, I used to feel like jumping in front of a bus after a shift.

Even as a NEET, there still isn't enough time in the day to be as good as I want to be at shumps and fighting games. ;_;

It's different when you're a hikki. I want to go out and do so many things, but I am so afraid, even to get help. I am cursed to forever be scared. I never asked to be like this.

Yes OP, I know that feel. I know it well.

>>8698440
Working doesn't make it any better.
I miss the days I was a NEET, even though I was only awake for like 6 hours a day and was constantly sad and unmotivated to do anything.

I want to put my Coke glass in the freezer so it will be super cold for when I put Coke in it, but my dog is asleep in front of the freezer and I haven't the heart to move him.

My day is fucking ruined.

>>8698426
My friend it seems that you're still plagued by the mindset of normalfags. To me "time spent doing what I really enjoy" is the only meaningful way to spend my life in this world, time spent working or studying is at best a necessary sacrifice in order to spend my time meaningfully. The less you have to waste on that, the better it is.

There is a huge pile of trash at the front door and it just keeps piling and piling. This is a real-life metaphor for my life.

this thread was on page 13, it's now on the front page

>>8698864
It's nice to see that I almost killed this thread. Always the last to post and never the bride.

I accidentally knocked a glass off my desk this morning. It smashed everywhere over my bin. I need to clean it up at some point, but I don't want to have to look at (or around) my bin.

>>8702620
I know that feel. It would be so easy to just get off my ass and deal with the tiny issues that are causing me ridiculous stress, but I can't.
Cleaning that trash would literally take you a grand total of two minutes, but I bet you just kick it to the side or jump over it when you need to get past, constantly telling yourself you'll fix it when you get back. The time you spend thinking about it is probably ten times the amount of time it would take to fix it.

No one will ever purposely reply to your post. ;_;

I have to go to the vet today, christ I hate that place, nothing but old white ladies jabbering on like I give a shit. At least when I get home I won't have to leave the house for a week.

>>8698864
that feeling you get of just looking at it and decide its better just to crawl back into bed.

I just want it to be Friday already, I want to watch Kill Me Baby.

I have an awesome night job and that sounds like my life anyways.

Working in a call center sounds like true suffering though. Perhaps look into getting a new job?

I really need to get my hair cut. My sister cut it for me early last year. It's already at my waist.

But what can I do? I've not been to a barbers' shop since I was a kid, and I don't think I could even go to one with such long hair.

>>8702639
Put it in a ponytail and cut at the base.

>>8702639
Some places give you a free haircut if you donate it to cancer patients so they can make wigs from it.

I shave my head though, long hair smells bad and is hot and sweaty.

when you are in despair its fine to recall your memories
also please create a thread later if you change your thoughts

>>8702639
I last cut my hair seven years ago. Feel lucky that you have an imouto to cut it.

>>8702639
I've always cut my hair. Maybe I should ask my sister to cut it instead. I think she'd like that.

>>8702639

Huh?

How exactly is this a problem?

Just tie it off with an elastic band at required length and cut it with scissors.

>>8705697
9 years here.

It is really damaged now though, the ends are all frayed and fucked up and I've got a pretty bad receding hairline happening that is hidden behind the hair. Wish I wasn't going bald at 25.

NEET for a year here (gap year between HS and university)
honestly having my passive-aggressive mother as my only human contact makes me want to kill myself.
and when I go out i often talk to myself accidentally because I do it all the time at home. Also it gets harder and harder to hold conversations and pay attention to what you're doing the longer you stay in the house.
I feel a little more retarded every time I leave the house (which is only twice a week or so and I try not to if I don't have to)
at one point I had gone 1 month without talking to anyone but my mother and 4chan. No facebook or phone calls.
All I do is sit in the dark and wither away.
I can't wait to get out of here and live in a dorm with other people.

>>8696708
Sounds like you're doing better than me. I'm still at my starting pay of $15/hr after about 11 months. I'm paid about half of what the entry level for my position at another company would be. The only reason my boss is getting away with this is because of the potential that stuff might get big. I'm giving him til after I finish up on my various vacations later this year. The only good thing about this job is that he doesn't really care how many days you take off if it isn't crisis time. In the last 11 months I've taken off a total of two months.

I wish I was neeting it up again. I had to wake up at 8am. That's late for some people but fuck, it is way too fucking early for me. I'm at home and I have to finish on some shit too.

I'll be heading to a university starting next week, aiming for a degree in physics.
I know it's very likely for me to keep unemployed afterwards, but physics is pretty much everything I love outside of my neet world. Well, at least I'll be offered the chance to move to a better place if things work out.

As of today it has been seven months since I last talked to someone face to face who isn't my mother, father, or imouto. I wonder how I will do when I go to university in the fall.

>>8705935
I think it will take some adjusting but you'll definitely be happier in the outside world.
every time I engage in social activities I realize how truly miserable I had been in the past.

Walking down the cold, dark road at 8am every morning to catch the bus, I think about sitting in my warm room, the sun shining through the blinds and browsing /jp/ with a cup of tea. Maybe listening to some good music.

>>8696620
I don't miss not being able to afford games or otaku merchandise.

>>8705813
>>8696708

I get paid biweekly-- guess how much-- 100 USD. I do live in a "cheap" country, and the workplace is close by, but it's 11 hours daily since 10 am with no break.

I can't even splurge on weeaboo shit or anything else in particular because the money just trickles through my fingers on basic commodities...

>>8698837

Awww

Every day I wake up, I get depressed and angry because I actually woke up and didn't die in my sleep. I curse my life, this body and this world.

I don't want any more. I will gladly accept death. But unfortunately my body won't allow it. Suicide is difficult when you can't physically or mentally shut off that nagging will to live. My body and mind tells me to eat, to live and to keep hoping for better days. I don't want it. I don't want to do anything any more.

I'm almost a wizard, (less than a year left) and I get paid barely $1000 a month, and I work from 8 to 6. Shit sucks, my dream is quit my job and work doing apps or some shit like that. Wish I could learn some lua or objective c but depression and lazyness don't help me at all. Wish I wake up sick tomorrow, that way I won't have to go to work.

>>8705779
You think that's bad?
I started receding heavily at 19.

>>8706124
>>8705779

That's strange. Little girls aren't supposed to go bald!

>>8706124
I wouldn't mind losing some of my hair. It's so bloody thick that it becomes uncomfortable if I let it grow past 2 cm.

>>8706127

I just go through cycles.

When I'm working or doing something I'll feel good for a couple months and then feel crushed by my awkwardness and hatred for wasting my time on meaningless tasks. After a while every minute I'm just wishing I was back in my cave hiding from the world.

And then I'm doing nothing for months at a time and it feels good, but eventually the smallest reminders of the real world and my own isolation from it will just wreck me.

I wish I had the balls to do anything about it. My life feels like a long string of shrinking away from humiliation. I went to therapy for a while but I was too ashamed to admit to a stranger how pathetic my life was.

>>8706128
Enjoy your thick hair, it's better than no hair.

>>8706133
If you admit how pathetic your life is but at the same time wish to correct it, they'll give you autism money. Whether you do so or not is up to you, but now you have money.

I mean you can even go right ahead and say things other people on here do but you don't. Like play with little plush dolls and pose them and pretend you're a little girl enjoying a tea party with anonymous people on the internet. The weirder you are, the more points you score for even more autism dollars and benefits/programs. Just don't say you killed anybody or make yourself sound dangerous (like saying ``I wish my parents would drop dead'').

I'm homeless and it fucking sucks oh my god i know people are looking at me in front of this library why don't I care.

>>8706150
You must stink like HELL.

>>8706145


really how does that work?

>>8706119
The same thing here

Born in a third world country, everything is terrible, shit food, shit internet, poor, shit parents, hot as hell...

I have a huge fear of physical pain, for me, killing myself with a knife or something is impossible.

Please, let me rest in peace, I just want to sleep and then never wake up, there is no way to fix my life, it's not about being a NEET/Hiki, there is nothing worth outside my house, this place is terrible.

>>8706145
How do I get autism monies?

>>8706150

go back to your home board

I miss the NEET lifestyle despite not living it for much over a year.

I've gone back to university after a leave of absence (Physics).
I can skip lectures, but of course not tutorials, labs, etc. without consequence.

It pains me to see all these young people with ambition, and of course they probably assume the same of you if you say nothing.
They go out of their way to talk to me and each other, making friends and such, and I don't want to be rude.

The end result is I have to try to avoid about six people who will approach me and talk to me if I'm seen.
You can hardly ask them to fuck off because you prefer solitude.

My mood improves greatly when I've stayed in the apartment for a few days without talking to anyone.

I can't say I'm much of a NEET anymore now that I'm in university, but honestly I sort of miss those carefree days. I don't know if anyone else feels like this, but to me it feels like I live my life like robot. Everyday I get up, go to school, come home, do the necessary work, do the average otaku things, go to bed, rinse repeat.

I hardly talk to anyone other than my parents, I'm pretty much invisible to the point where I'm practically a spectator in this world. This isn't living, I don't know what to call this.

>>8706194
Too, many, fucking, apostrophes, give, me, a fucking, break.

>>8706221

They're commas. An apostrophe is what's in 'they're'.

>>8706221
I mean commas, holy shit I'm retarded

>>8706229

>>8706233
This is the first time somebody used that stupid picture when linking my post.

I want to die.

>>8706237

I'm away at uni this year. "Friends", class, social life, roommate ... It's all such a hassle. I miss the days where I would just sit on my computer all day doing nothing but watching anime and surfing 4chan. So much that sometimes I want to cry. I can't wait till summer vacation, I'm gonna lock myself in my room for three months straight.

>>8706292
What sucks is that in my university program is five years with no summer breaks. The upside is that I won't have any dept and get a bunch of work experience.

I'm in somewhat a NEET lifestyle due to medical problems, but I still live with my parent.

It sucks because I can't even enjoy the good parts of it to the full extent.

>>8706377
What's wrong with you, pal?

>>8706292
I'm in uni and I already do that.

>roommate

Haha, oh wow.

>>8706145
>Just don't say you killed anybody or make yourself sound dangerous (like saying ``I wish my parents would drop dead'').
Roughly how bad of an idea would this be? Like, say for example I were to admit to the dude that I was having violent thoughts/episodes where I indiscriminately break things or come close to stabbing myself/other people, would they lock me up in some mental hospital or just prescribe me heavier meds? Because the meds I could take, but being locked up I'd rather not go with until/unless I'm homeless or about to become so.

>>8706517
If you actually do then it's not that bad since the meds and stuff could potentially help you out, but there isn't a good reason to make that stuff up.

>>8706524
I'm mostly worried about the, you know, being held in some facility due to having checked too many boxes on one of those "risk assessment" reports that they take. The meds I'd be fine with whether they actually helped or not.

>>8706532
Do you want to stab other people? If you're honest and willing to work out any issues that you might be experiencing talking to someone might being a good thing in the long run. I wouldn't mention any specific instances of wanting to seriously harm yourself or others though, that's probably the only way you'd end up being held in some place.

>>8706532
Innocent till proven guilty. If you're incredibly unstable, they'll try to help you forcefully. If you can manage to sit down and talk about these feelings while seeming reasonably stable, you're okay.

I don't recommend it though. It's a dangerous game to play (especially if you're lying for autism dollars) and best if you just leave that out. You need to hit the right buttons and answer every question correctly and make sure you don't say too much or too little.

Stick with being pathetic and afraid of the world, that's easy.

I was NEET for a year between year 13 and university. I lost a lot of weight down to 130 lbs and I'm 6', lost social skills.

Now it's almost the end of my third year studying Economics & Finance and I'm a muscular lean 173 lbs and confident as fuck irl.

I've browsed jp for over a year because I like to observe the community half an hour a day (I know the names of 2hu stuff but don't know anything about the stuff you like).

ttyl , 9:15 lecture

I've been a NEET for 1.5 years, and now that I'm almost 20 my mom constantly calls me useless and tells me to get a job. She threatens to kick me out but I don't think she could actually do it.

When I dropped out of high school years ago(Yeah I know, I'm a loser), I just told everyone that "it was a drag" and that I was bored of it, and they all believed it I guess. Little did they know how messed up I was from the bullying in middle school. In class when we had to partner up and finish a project, I would literally just stare at my desk until the end of the period, my mom was constantly dumbfounded how I could be missing so much classwork. But between never doing partner work, and constantly feeling like everyone was laughing or talking about me, it was hard to concentrate. I have 2 friends currently but I'm pretty sure they only stick around because we've been friends since 2nd grade, eventually I know they will get tired of me. My anxiety has gotten better since I've been a social recluse, my skin on my hands stopped peeling and my nervous habits such as touching my hair have faded. I really like being alone in my room all day, but I know that can't last forever. I don't know how I'm ever going to get a job though, since I have no social skills. My quietness isn't really the stuttering awkward kind, it's more of a selective mutism. Which makes me come across as an asshole, so instead of pitying me for being plain shy, people tend to flat out dislike me. I can't really help it though. Oh well, feels nice to whine about my problems online.

Looks like I may end up spending a few weeks in a psychiatric evaluation center. It's not an asylum but not having access to my computer and being surrounded by people doesn't sound like much fun to me.

I can still say no but I don't know what my psychiatrist would think about that.

>>8706578
If you don't wanna get treated or talk to your shrink, then there is absolutely no way therapy could work.

>>8706573
How about working as a night auditor at a hotel? It could suit you, google a bit or ask your mom if she knows something about this. It's a start. Hang in there.

I finally found something to live for. Something I would work for, even forfeiting my status as a NEET for. My life will probably be long and miserable, but I will have this one thing even if it kills me.

>>8706611
Congratulations, and what is it if you don't mind?

>>8706620
Thanks, but it's best if I don't say. Don't worry, it's nothing sappy like a good life, or a happy family, or a fulfilling occupation or anything like that. Suffice to say that even the most miserable person should have but one thing that makes them happy.

>>8706636

It's heroin, isn't it?

>>8706559
What about suicidal thoughts? That a negative thing to bring up for aspie bucks?

>>8706641
Surprisingly, it's not.

>>8706636

I KNOW! I KNOW!

If I managed my time properly I could get as much as 5-7 hours of free time on working days.
Full time job, 8 hour shifts, one hour on the bus back home, 2 hours extra spent on gym days and then back home by 07:30 pm (05:30 pm on days with no gym).
Then I'd stay up till midnight, go to sleep and then back up again at 05:00 am the next day.
Sure my stress levels were sky high and the pay was shit.
But I quit that job because FUCK GETTING UP AT 5.
Also the only reason why I stayed there as long as I did was because my mother lost her job and she needed my financial support.

The workplace was ok, the people were nice, there was always something to do and it got me motivated to do stuff again.
But I wasn't very interested in the work they were doing.
I worked as a shop assistant in a wardware store called Clas Ohlson (it's part of a large international chain).

>>8706636
>I will have this one thing even if it kills me.
A child
>it's nothing sappy like a good life, or a happy family
And the mother is out of the picture, so you're raising him/her alone

>>8707362

>>8706546
not an aspie, or who you are replying to.

I often self harm and admitted it to my GP and to my counseller. Still got my freedom, just gotta lie to them and say I want to stop and that I don't like feeling suicidal.

Not a NEET either, studying Physics at uni.

No monies for me, just pills that stop me being able to drink my problems away. I miss chugging 2 or 3 bottles of red wine a night and watching anime until 4 am.

>>8706064
Funny, it's exactly the opposite for me.

𐄂

I have a span of time inbetween learning a foreign language and going to university that I have nothing much else to do or care to do.

So until I head to uni later this year, I sorta count as a neet and as far as I've experienced, everyday is rather dull, not much to do. when you lack for work or school, there is an empty void of a day to do something fun but it's no longer fun when your able to do it all the time.

>>8706224
>I'm pretty much invisible to the point where I'm practically a spectator in this world. This isn't living, I don't know what to call this.

That feel.

Look on the bright side, you are never held accountable for anything bad you might do. Living this lifestyle though, forget any delusions you might have of having a lover, group of friends, all those normal things. It will never happen, you will never connect with anyone on a deep romantic level.

Once you get past that you can finally start to take it easy~ IRL.

>>8706215
>Ambition

I wish I still knew what this feels like.

>>8708122
>emotions

my life is an endless abyss of emptiness and dark

There there.

>>8706064

DON'T LISTEN TO HIM! HE'S LYING! THE REAL WORLD IS SUFFERING!

>>8708225
For me, it's not that I hate social interaction, I just only like it with certain types of people.

And I can only find those people on 4chan, usually. Therefore, I don't go outside if I can help it.

I feel jealous of you guys who go to university yet claim to have free time. Seriously, fuck engineering.

>>8708964
It's all about time management. As long as you regularly attend class and can at least follow the general mathematical concepts during lectures there's no reason to actually do any of those practice problems and tutorials until two or so days preceding the exam. Endless repetition is a complete waste of your time unless you're exceptionally dense. I'll be working decently hard for 4 or so brief periods over the semester and doing absolutely nothing beyond showing up to class anytime else .

Land an ADD diagnosis. Universities are almost always required to compensate "disabled" students with 50-100% exam and assignment time.

>>8710018
> 50-100% exam and assignment time.
Does that mean 50% more time? It might be worth getting an ADD diagnosis just for that and the speed.

>>8708964
What?
Maybe you should pay attention in class.
Passed my 4years of engineering course with plenty of free time. Just do past year paper a day before the exam.
I didnt get first class honor though. This is what happened when you are jaded and cynical with no motivation in life. Life of mediocrity.

>>8710025
They also stick you in your own private, unsupervised room. The whole package is quite attractive, so much so that I actually bothered pursuing the diagnosis; which was ridiculously easy to attain in any case.

Though to be entirely fair I take it my physician harbors a similar disregard for the post secondary institution. Ease is going to likely vary but I assume the process will be considerably easier than the road to autism money.

>>8710093
This reminds me: my local mental health hospital has been refurbished and all the long-term inpatients now get their own comfy rooms with ensuite toilets and showers.

Should I get myself sectioned, /jp/?

>>8708964

Engineering? Pfffttt. Try med school.

>>8710123
Lucky you, mental hospitals here are worse than prisons.

I think I'd rather live on the streets than be taken to one.

>>8710129
I've spoken to people who have been in them, and I got that impression. I think my local Trust is trying to modernise them and make them friendlier to get rid of that stigma. Caring about mental health is trendy now.

I think this has been brought up before and it's very stupid but I don't care:

How do I cripple myself? As painlessly as possible, because I'm a little girl inside.

Been NEET or semi-NEET for going on six years now. Sometimes I do a few online classes (not bothering to actually read the material, google and educated guesses can be surprisingly effective) sometimes I do nothing. Got something like $6500 sitting in the bank from "living expenses" I got from financial aid (got pretty lucky as far as that's concerned, my brother didn't get offered anything, but I get everything paid for and money in my bank account every semester I decide to attend) I do worry that one day I won't be able to live like this any more though, and the thought is very sad to me.

>>8710158

Hoe exactly does crippling yourself coincide with becoming a little girl? ... And I believe the easiest way would be to sever a major nerve. What kind of function do you want to lose?

>>8710128
iknowthatfeelbro.conf

No, but seriously, it sucks hard when you're stuck at the lab doing a convoluted clusterfuck of routing and network management, while your Facebook is buzzing with business majors posting shit like "NO MORE CLASSES!!! PARTY TIME!!!" or "We're going to the beach next week, who's done with school?".

I don't miss being NEET, because I am NEET. I live a pretty nice life.

I wish to die but i can't because people (my mom) depend on my, I miss those days of being a neet and just don't worry about anything all day long in my room, i miss the days on 4chan when i don't needed to talk with anybody, i hate talk with people, i hate see their faces everyday i wish i just could stay in my room forever and die alone.

I wish I had some sort of explanation for why I hate other people and the outside world so much like mental illness but I'm just a lazy fuck and I hate being trapped spending all my time working just to spend it all on bills.

I'm a major dumbass too so its not like I can go back to college and get a real education. My only real option for escaping loserdom is the army, but I know I wouldn't fit in at all. At least there is a chance they'll teach me not to be so fucking useless.

>>8710287
I don't any of us have to worry about not dying alone.

>>8710158
There is no painless way to cripple yourself.

The safest way is probably to lop off a few fingers.

There's probably better ways to go about avoiding work than crippling yourself...seriously, if you hate it that much you probably should get help.

Fuck it, I'm not going to make another thread for this shit.

Merzbow doing a show in Sydney in May. I am fucking ridiculously excited but I couldn't afford a ticket yet for obvious reasons. Fuck.

>>8710262
>Facebook

Kill yourself.

I remember the days.
Staying up until the wee hours of the morning trying to change my party to fight off that last boss. Downing a pack of knock off brand soda in a weekend. Laughing at friends who studied hard to get good grades as I just wasted my time and played games.

Now I go to a university, TA for the department and am the vice president of the Astronomy Club. I'll graduate with a B.S. in Physics next year and go to Grad school and have even less time. Some days I go to campus at 9 a.m. and work until midnight or later, no time for those summer video game nights and late night walks around the paths of my youth any more.

But you know, it was fun while it lasted. And what I do now is fun too, learning and making myself a better person every day. Some weekends I get the chance to just sit and play a game and remember the old days where that was every day and I wonder... wouldn't it be monotonous? Mixing it up seems like the better option. Working hard and then on occasion having the old days back, if only for a small time.

Work hard, ex- NEETs of /jp/. Work hard but don't forget the old days. Reward yourself once in a while. It's not so bad. Current NEETs, rejoice. Enjoy the time you have, it's not forever. Use your free time to go out and see friends. Be social, even if it's only in a small friend group. Eventually you'll miss the chance and you don't want to spend your life wishing you hadn't missed your opportunities for small human happiness. Everyone lives a while. Everyone suffers. Everyone dies. It's how you use your time that matters.

>>8710391
Don't give him bad ideas, he should fuck his legs up. He can sacrifice mobility, he needs his fingers for his keyboard.

I've never had the courage to do it though, I often envy people that are physically crippled though, at least their problems seem less pathetic.

>>8710461
I'd rather die than lose who I am right now.

It seems you have lost yourself, and are deluding yourself into thinking this is what you really want.

>>8710519
I wouldn't say I lost who I was, I'd say I transcended it.
What I do is rewarding. And I know that I'm working towards something I want, toward a goal I have in mind. I still take time to enjoy the little things, to waste time watching shows, and to do everything else.

I'd say that's broadening my horizons, not losing myself. The real shame would be to stay doing one thing for the rest of my life and never understanding what else is out there.

>>8710528
I already undertand what is out there.

None of it is worth it.

Man, I have no idea how I'd handle having a job or education that only left me a few hours of leisure at the end of the day. The day is already way too short for everything I want to do, even though I'm a NEET.

Your stories make me genuinely question whether life would be worth living without the privileges I currently have.

I used to be a NEET until I turned 24 and got kicked out. Luckily, I am attractive, so I just wooed a not-so-attractive girl and then started living at her house and being a NEET until she got tired of my shit and flipped the fuck out and broke up with me.

Then I worked at a call center for 2 years and thought about throwing myself in front of a bus every day. CALL CENTERS ARE THE WORST JOBS IN THE FUCKING UNIVERSE. ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN A CALL CENTER, I PROMISE YOU.

I found another girl and quit my job but her uncle is really cool and got me a job in his insurance office. All I do is process files. They hand me paper work and I scan it or type it up or fax it, and I have my laptop so I browse internet while I work.

It's probably the most bearable job I will ever get.

Right now I'm a student (again, after dropping out once), but I still have upwards of eight hours of free time a day.

I don't know how I'll cope once I graduate and this isn't possible anymore.

>>8710461
I can't explain how much I pity you.

>I just wooed a not-so-attractive girl and then started living at her house and being a NEET until she got tired of my shit and flipped the fuck out and broke up with me.
I wish I was attractive enough to do this permanently.

My dream is to bum around globe, wandering aimlessly through cities and natural landscapes alike. I don't think I'm ever going to get around to doing this though.

Being a NEET screws with your perception of time I think. I don't do anything but browse the internet pretty much every day yet I still feel like I could've done more.

If I get a job I quickly become depressed because I just lost over half of my free time.

>>8710658
Why would you pity me? I'm pretty happy with life where it is. There's nostalgia for the old days yes, but I think that's something that is a part of life. Everyone has to move on at some point, otherwise you end up depressed and unhappy like half the people in this thread.

Other way around, the business majors will be the ones making 6+ figures, since all those connections and "friends" will be able to hook them up with good jobs.

Hard science majors and engineers are screwed unless you go for a master's/PhD, especially if you are an aspie with few friends.

getaloadofthisguy
Your average business graduate will not be making a 6 figure salary right out of college, is that seriously what they're telling people in college, holy fucking shit

>>8712273
Not that guy, but it's probably true for some well-networked individuals that they get something around $100,000 almost out of university. And it's certainly true that "hard science" like physics, chem etc. almost need a masters to get decent employment. Engineers, however, are probably always in demand somewhere.

Suddenly I don't feel that bad anymore about not having a job.
Thanks everyone for motivating me not to give up on the things I like.

The End is Nigh, my Brethren.

Not a NEET, but I'll try anyway. Currently a university student with only a couple courses, dropped the rest due to anxiety (and I'm glad I did.) Haven't been to class in ages, just study the books and attend exams. Somehow it seems so onerous to pick up that book and read even 1-2 chapters in a day, even though I know it isn't really that much work at all. My major's the most interesting thing I've found in academics, and even it doesn't really feel appealing at all anymore. I'm trying to pass and get my degree, but somehow it just doesn't feel like it's going to happen.

Well, at least I can say I tried, right?

>>8713126
Feeling bad about it doesn't really help anyone, unless it'll motivate you to go and do something you'd enjoy more.

Good luck pursing the things you enjoy in life, anon.

>>8717649
I know exactly how you feel.

Big mistake, going to University because it was "next" in the life steps everyone is supposed to take. It's all felt like a giant waste of time to me.

>>8717649
I started going to university this year and I'm afraid I'll end up like you. Though if I skip more than 25% of classes I'll fail the course anyway.

Last night I woke up in a daze and thanks to some dream where I ate starbursts I had a craving for starbursts. I went to the convenience store a soon without looking at the clock. I don't own a car so I walked the 5 blocks there but as I am walking I notice it was awfully crowded about. I live very close to the hip and happening nightlife part of town but I am never exposed to it because I only do my shopping at 4am when the streets are mostly dead. It was midnight and every young person in the city was out, so much noise and so many normalfags. People try to strike up conversations with you when drunk even thought they would ignore you sober. A 3DPD black female asked my if I was alone and if I wanted to go to a club with her, I told I had things to do. I got my starburst and quickly hurried home. Fucking normalfags...

Also my NEET life has gotten better after I started leaning japanese, it is fun and passes the time and you get to use the fruits of your labor.

>>8717677
I don't really regret returning to university, honestly. I tried going before, picked a very stupid major, and ended up fucking up the entire year (due to a combination of getting sick at a critical point, anxiety, and my ever present lack of anything resembling motivation, as well as realizing I gave no fucks about my major) - getting out of it with one class passed, only. Managed to get paperwork done to have all the failed classes erased off my record and get back into the university, but by then it was too late to get into that year, so I ended up NEETing it out for a year... It wasn't fun. I ended up wracked with anxiety/depression for a large part of it, mostly due to my parents, with daily repetitive lectures about getting a job, etc etc I'm sure you know the deal. Also tried to get a job during that year, even though I didn't want to, must have passed out a hundred resumes and went to like three different job agencies, met with complete failure.

After I returned to university, I even managed to do pretty well and normal it up for most of the time. Didn't go out with friends or anything, but for the first year and first semester of the second year, I attended basically all my classes and everything was fine. And then the insane amount of workload in one of my classes caught up with me, the anxiety returned, I stopped going and failed out of it, and I've been struggling along since. Doesn't help that I've recently realized I don't particularly care about my new major either.

Though, thanks to Asperger's $yndrome and returning to university, I have my own place to live. I'm actually a lot more stable than I was when I was back at home - less anxious, less depressed, and more relaxed. And hey, I didn't have any way of knowing it would turn out like this. So no, I really don't regret going back.

>>8717690
Good luck. Hope things turn out better for you then they did for me.

>>8710018

I was diagnosed as having a "learning disability" in high school and they gave me extra time. Do you think it would be easy to carry this over to University?

>>8717933
Entirely possible. Do you have any documentation from your doctor or anything like that? If not you might need to get some. Try to get an appointment set up at your university's center for disabled students or somesuch.

>>8717940
Not at all possible.

Universities are the most cutthroat environment imaginable.

If you are not in tip-top shape mentally, you WILL be devoured and shat out by competition. If not during the course of your studies, then when the time comes around for emplyers/feudal lords to hire you.

>>8719136
This may have held some truth at some point in the past but due to social and economic factors entering and completed a degreed program through contemporary post-secondary institution has become arguably standard amongst the median. Competition within academia is also essentially non-existent as even advancement into a masters program typically requires only a 3.0. It's a business after all, esotericism can't be good for monetary interests can it? If you haven't been formally diagnosed with some sort of profound mental deficit you'll be absolutely fine. After schooling, maybe not.

>>8719136
I went to a top tier university for the subject I was covering, they made it pretty clear that they had people available for helping students that had a disability. You underestimate how much good PR taking a few cripples in does. However~

>>8717690
Goodluck with that, University was what finally resulted in me becoming a full time shutin. I managed to get through college after two attempts with good grades, got into a leading university and then finally found a point where I just couldn't keep going, and this is after being a sociophobe for as long as I can remember. It was absolutely terrible, I ended up unable to sleep, eat and my nervous ticks and spasms got worse than ever, making it even harder to go outside without wanting to step infront of the train rather than get on it.

Hopefully you'll cope better than I did.

>>8696620
That's exactly how I feel. There's a 10 page booklet I have to read and it's on one of my FAVORITE subjects but I just don't have that SAME motivation I had 3 years ago. I've been in high school for 5 years and I'm 20, heading for another semester and it's all because my country made it so I can't earn more than minimum wage unless I get a high school diploma. Meanwhile my parents have given up on me so I feel less motivated than before. There's a girl I sit beside in a class who is extremely competitive and sometimes tries to beat me at the one thing I'm good at. I mean really? She's good at Physics, Math, Chemistry, but she picks this one fkn subject to excel in? Ugh...It's times like that I don't even feel like trying.

Why would I go to bed at 4 pm and miss dinner?
Stupid

After being NEET for 11 years I decided to do a bridging course at University in courses I'm actually interested in since I figured, why not? And my social skills aren't TOO bad.

Anyway 3 weeks in, I'm already far behind, I only have to do 20 hours a week to stay on top of it, I've done nothing. I put 80 hours into games and have done no work. It is making me really depressed and hate myself. I know I have to do the work, and I want to do it. I sit here thinking "do the fucking work" but I know I just won't do it, and I don't even have a reason.

>>8720539
You should budget your time out.

>>8720539
Don't make the same mistake I did. I dug myself into a hole and I'm trying like hell to get out, possibly to return to what NEET life I had years before.
Discipline, anon. As they say, "pay now, not later."

>>8720539
I have a class test tomorrow for Java (CS course). I haven't paid attention in the Java lectures for about 1 month, so I'll fail horribly. I don't even know where to begin studying for Java (the test is on Array lists, hash maps, hash lists). The grade will be combined with the rest of the Java exams I've done and I'll get an average grade at the end of the year. I'm hoping to just get a C, then enjoy my Summer (I get ~5 months off, end of April to start of October).

When class starts up again I'll probably switch courses to either Business or graphics and animation. I hate my lectuers and Java/

Being a student is the closest I get to being NEET, though during breaks it's quite indistinguishable. At least I'm studying Japanese, which has vastly improved how I get to enjoy my hobbies. Going to school is still depressing, however. Not only do I have to constantly hide the fact that I'm a dirty otaku, but a good education confirms what most shut-ins intuit: that the world is a horrible place and life is less a matter of expanding one's horizons than of keeping the outer darkness from completely invading the fragile space that we call life. Pleasure is easy to find these days, but freedom is not: to just have the opportunity to do the right thing once is a saving grace from God. At this point, I am unsure whether to pursue wisdom to find a way out or to allow myself to rot as I contemplate other worlds more beautiful than this one. I do take a bit of proud in coming to this choice, however: at least I know which delusions not to waste my time with. You should be proud too, /jp/. I have seen and read about many radicals, and few match the purity of your withdrawal from society.

Right out of high School I began attending college. I am a white male who did totally average in school so there was no financial aid or scholarship available for me!

I went to college for 2 years doing nothing in particular, working on a transfer degree. Just took loads of philosophy classes and slunk into a massive depression.

Then i turned 20 and realized I wasn't going to be unhappy anymore. i stopped college, and knew that I had to get rid of my loans. My family is poor and has cheated me SEVERELY over the last three years in regards to finance.

My friend hooked me up with a job (Pure chance that i knew him, or id have commit suicide). I've been working to pay off $7,000 loans and pay for my eye and dental health as well as a chronic illness I was diagnosed with this year.

In one month I will have everything payed off, and I can become a NEET. I'll e free again.

Never get a job anon, it is the single worst regret you'll ever have. I have never been more depressed in my entire life.

But it is finally going to be over so soon...

The near future has a possibility of incredible abundance to the point where food, energy, housing, and water are so cheap that trying to charge for them would be like trying to charge for the air you breathe.

Don't lose hope now, you spineless fucks.

>>8721630
Energy is only going to get more expensive for the foreseeable future. Stop being a delusional fuck.

I wish I had no one to disappoint. Then I would just drop out of university and just NEET or get a shitty part time job to pay for a shitty one room apartment and internet.

Life is fucking shit.

>>8721742

Now I have to sleep to ready myself for another day of it.

>I wish I had no one to disappoint. Then I would just drop out of university and just NEET or get a shitty part time job to pay for a shitty one room apartment and internet.
No, not really. What's wrong with having a part time job that supports you? I can see them condemning the NEETing because there's rarely if ever a normal that doesn't.

>>8721797
Oh I see. I meant the "shitty part time job" as opposed to being a NEET in case I dropped out of university. I don't need more money at the moment as my parents are paying for pretty much everything right now and I still have about 1,800€ in my bank for things I need.

>>8721765
>>8721812
Oh and "what they want me to do", I guess the usual: finish education, get a boring job and work 9-5 if not longer the rest of my life.

I'm going to be forced into a community college this Fall.

I was thinking about going into Computer Science, but I doubt I'll be able to keep up. I'm dumb as a doorknob, unfortunately; not to mention I have little to no motivation. The only thing I can motivate myself to study is Japanese, and even that I'm horrible in.

Are there any philosophical schools of thought that extol the virtues of being a NEET?
You know, something I can just agree with, without bothering to read the other side of the argument.

>>8723937
Marxism to demonstrate that you're oppressed.
Heidegger to demonstrate the emptiness and inauthenticity of modern society.
Hiroki Azuma to demonstrate otaku culture is a world-historical disclosure of a new epoch of being.
Kuki Shuzo to learn how to be a snob.
Nietzsche as just a general role model.

>>8723937
Well, Diogenes was a NEET all his life but supposedly not only because of laziness.

>>8723982
>Hiroki Azuma to demonstrate otaku culture is a world-historical disclosure of a new epoch of being.
Damn, where do I sign up for that one?

Might as well post this in this thread instead of making a new one...

I've decided to take on the lifestyle of a NEET.
All social ties have been cut, housing has been arranged for the next two years, the only thing left is that I need bulk food/drink recommendations.
I'm not necessarily looking for the cheapest food possible, rather a nice compromise between quality, and price. I'd like nutrition somewhere in there, seeing as I'd like to do this for as long as possible.
Thanks.

>>8710685
I graduated with a degree in Physics a few years ago, and I was a NEET for about two years; more like a freeter now though. Something about the major just attracts the depressed types.

>>8725614
Yes, his 'new epoch of being' being we're all consumerism taken to its conclusion. Wait, what about Marx? Reading all of that would make any NEET mad with contradiction, and commit suicide. Everybody wins!

I dropped out of school (now going to school part-time, 9 hours a week). That's what I want to do, be alone. You fucking lucky bastard.

Time to get ready for the first set of classes of the new semester.

I didn't really have a hard time in highschool, I went to classes, had a bunch of friends and I got good grades. Applied to university like everyone else and I went in the fall after senior year. I couldn't cope with it, the workload wasn't that much, the classes weren't hard and yet social anxiety just killed me. I never had social anxiety before, I always had people to hang out with but I had no friends in my dorm. I barely talked to my roommate and I soon stopped going to classes. Anime, manga, gaming, the likes took over. I lied to my parents about how I was doing, told them I was fine while I just skipped everything. I failed nearly half my classes the first semester. Second semester I failed every class and flunked out of university. My parents chewed me up after that so I ended up attending community college the next fall. My family is well off so they got me my own one-bedroom apartment. I attended community college and did pretty well for myself, I got good grades and credits for a transfer back to a 4-year university. But I ended going back into the same routine, except it got even worse and I ended up going full on NEET even though I was still enrolled in classes. Crippling fear of telling my family about my stress and anxiety just led me to sleeping all day, and internet when I wasn't asleep. If I wasn't on the internet to distract myself, reality would slowly trickle back into my thoughts and I'd just end up crying myself to sleep. And I haven't been able to get out that cycle ever since. My grades aren't doing too well now and I'm lying to my parents again. Why is everything so difficult /jp/

>>8726203
Your parents are dense.

Yeah - I really kind of do miss being a NEET. I feel ya OP.

>>8726203
I'm in pretty much the same position.
Had no problems with primary, secondary, college, but at University, I struggled to make friends. I only have a few people I say hi to, and I somehow drifted through first year. Second year wasn't so forgiving though, the work was harder, and in my opinion some of our classes were complete shit. We had 2 Chinese lecturers that could barely speak English and a module I deemed completely irrelevant. It started off as skipping one lesson to go to KFC, then it turned into "why not skip the entire day? I can just look up this stuff at home", "why not skip next day too? it's all on the web site", "why not skip the entire week?".
So eventually it got to the point where I was lying to my parents and just staying in my flat all day every day, sleeping until 1-3 PM and going to bed at 3-5 AM, playing games or browsing 4chan in my waking time. Then I started feeling anxious, what would all the other students think of me now? I don't want to go outside to meet anyone and find out. Lately I've been having dreams about having fun with my old friends in a different University and I wake up and die a little inside, then back to eroge and 4chan to forget about my life.
So I eventually told my parents that I thought I was going to fail and they were quite supportive. They're letting me still live in my flat and "go to Uni", but they want me to get a job if I ever come home.
Right now I'm still at uni, but I'm thinking about re-taking my second year, so I'm a NEET (sort of) until September. No point in going in if I'm just going to do it all again next year.

WTF is up with this and the pantsu thread, been here over a day.

OP here, I survived my first month... gotta keep trying.

>>8726359
xD

>>8726359
Welcome to /jp/.

plz go

How do you neets make money to keep going? I fill in surveys on various websites but that barely nets me $50 or so a month

>>8726554
Auti$m, parents, savings (?), etc.

>implying nuclear energy is expensive

>>8727253
Too bad investing in nuclear energy would be a political suicide in many countries because the majority of people are irrational fucks.

>>8727331

And this is why you shouldn't go outside, and if you do, shame on you.

Went to the book store to see if there was anything to help me learn japanese. I was amazed on how dumbed down the books were there; I barely know entry level grammar and only 900 kanji and those books were beneath me. I am wondering if I should take classes on japanese but my community college only offers to entry level japanese courses and I think I may place out of them.

>>8727253
The mining and refinement of uranium is completely oil dependent. Not to mention that constructing a nuclear power plant is one of the most oil-consuming feats of engineering possible.
Nuclear energy is not the solution. The only solution is population control. We can start by exterminating the NEETs.

>>8727403

LFTR designs would solve tons of these issues, although oil is still needed. At some point we'll have to find a way to mass produce synthetic oil.

>>8727331
That's been my biggest political pet peeve in 2011.

I got a job working as a security guard from 0:00 to 8:00, 6 days a week. I still feel like a big NEET because I spend 25% of my time reading light novels at my desk.

The best part about this job is how quiet it is.

>>8727634
How much do you make?

>>8727634

Sounds like excellent work. No such thing as socializing, and it's only 8 hours of your time.

>>8721742
this so fucking much

>>8727634
Sounds like a sweet deal.

I would love to be a park ranger or something like that.

Question for other university goers:

Whenever I sit down to study, I always start getting tired. Like my eyes will droop and it gets hard to keep concentrating regularly (which, ontop of my ADD can make studying quite the challenge at the rare times I gather up the motivation for it.) Anyone else have something similar happen?

>>8728907
The most likely reason is that you don't study enough. It's a matter of practice. If you're actually really sleepy all the time, you should drink coffee. Or if that doesn't work, upgrade to better stimulants.

>>8728946
Happens even when I end up having to do it daily or something. And I do occasionally drink energy drinks when it gets really bad.

Got a job working construction. Too bad lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy.

>>8728956
Sounds like a lack of motivation. Maybe do other drugs so you don't hate life so much? I've seen people improve in their studies after becoming huge potheads... Though it might just make things worse for you.

>>8710461

You sound like you hate your life a lot. Believe me, I've been there and I'd have written the same thing. Don't overwork yourself. It's never, ever, ever worth it. I can't stress this enough.

>>8728907
That is something that happens to me, when I try to learn something by doing mindless repetitions. It doesn't engage me enough and in the end isn't very effective. Try setting yourself smaller short term goals that you can reach in one session and changing your study habits.

>>8698440
I know that feel.

Honestly, I feel like I'm one of the few female NEETs (former, that is) out there.

getting a job killed the NEET in me. All I live for is slippery sloping as a buyfag.
nostalgia is all that's left.

Well fuck me.
I extended my contract to October.
It is gonna be a long time until I can NEET again.
Why is it so god damm hard to say NO?

>>8729717
Formerly a female?

>>8729824

A funny guy? Former NEET, no traps here.

>>8729800
Yeah, me too. I don't think I could be happy without money anymore. Ruined.

>>8729717
Why would you think that?

>>8729849
Then fuck off, whore.

>>8729854
I should have been more specific. Considering most posters here are male, I know I'm in the minority here by virtue of my gender. I'm sure there are plenty more women who live as NEETs in society, but they may be more self-conscious about it and less open to discuss it.

>>8729871
You're kidding right? Or trolling?

>>8729871
Fuck off, whore.

>>8729875
Not kidding or trolling either. No idea what makes you think I am. Do I really sound that dumb?

>>8729889
>>8729871

I wish I could report you to death

>>8729889

Yes.

>>8729889
Fuck off, whore.

/jp/ - Women Culture

>>8729895

>/jp/ - cute little girl culture.

>>8729889
Not dumb exactly, just... wrong. In any case, please don't express that opinion here, it will start a shitstorm.

Circunstances have forced me to give in. I've even made a Facebook. I act so normal it disgusts me. I'm even whining about it on a circlejerking thread! Sorry, but it just can't be helped.

>>>8729800 here

>>8729854
I think I could be happy without money again, I was completely broke NEET for a year after finishing university. It was pleasant except for the constant inquiries about job prospects and occasional feels of forever alone.

polite sage for blog.

Why constantly set yourself up for failure? If you are unproductive and don't want to feel pain, just look for an easy a job and NEET it up until you find one. You don't have to be a nuclear physicist.

>>8729919
It's still going to be wage slavery.

>>8729898
if only, all of my moneys and fund it.

>>8729919

There are very few easy jobs out there for someone who has next to no employment history or a massive gap in their CV. Most of it is a complete fucking grind or manual labour stuff.

>>8729919
What jobs would you recommend for someone who doesn't want to deal with people at all?

Would some of you jp bros want to make a anonymous mail suicide pact?

We could just email where we live statewise (no super personal stuff of course)

and then think about what place would be convenient. some of yall complain about backing down. they say its harder for people to back down when done with others.

>>8698861
Yes- THAT FEEL, I've been on about this for about a week now!!! You have made me feel a bit less horrible, my friend.

>>8729956
nighttime security guard. in some places you might need to pay to get qualification to be a security guard though. check your local laws.

>>8706064
Actually, it's very different for me... All the societishit I encounter have tempered my social anxiety into a defense mechanism. Society is just too far gone around here...

>>8729912
I guess I could get used to it again - I was on-and-off NEET for four years, and have only been employed for 2.5... but it'd be hard to cut back on the spending. And yeah, getting numb to the parental pressure again would be difficult.

>>8730124

inb4 boat outside a cliff with a megaphone and a bunch of people yelling at you to stop

>>8729717

Nope, going on 6 years strong fellow vagina NEETbro. Starting to head down the hikikomori path though, haven't left my house in almost a month, I hope it doesn't get to that. ;_;

>>8730947
show us ur boobz pls sxy xD

>>8730949

How dare you stray from your waifu Anon, shame on you.

>>8730952
I dun have no nerd waifu, nigga.

>>8721417
Just updating my fans: the test was difficult and I'm 100% sure I've failed it, but I did okay in the rest of the assessments so I should average a C for the class.

Good enough for me!

>>8730947
I bet you're fat.

>>8729871
there's plenty of female NEETs... they just tend to carry a shitload of emotional baggage.

finding someone who's level-headed is far too fucking rare.

>>8730952
>>>/a/
>>>/v/

>>8730947
Fuck off, whore.

/jp/, what will you do when you get older?. You can't work part-time/security guard forever.


And well, before this year ends, I'll have to move far away from my family, and work for a payment that's not worth the sacrifice.

I want to quit, but everyone have supported me all these years of hardship. I wish they didn't.

Well, serves me right for not taking my own decisions.


Never let others choose for you, /jp/.

>>8733171
>You can't work part-time/security guard forever.
Why not?

>>8733186
You'll get fired eventually, there's an age limit for working in every (decent) job. And your pension will be pretty low...

>>8730962

Nope.

>>8733272
Fuck off, whore.

>>8733275

What's wrong Anon? I'm just a shut in just like you, bullied and hurt into retreating into my house too afraid of the outside world.

>>8733286
Fuck off, whore.

>>8733286
You were born with the wrong gender. Please kill yourself.

>>8730947
>vagina NEETbro

Pfft, everyone knows females are slutty whores. Stop trying to fit in.

>>8733286
Don't mind him. He's not a shut in, he's just an underage faggot from /a/.

>>8733311
A whiteknight with shining armor has appeared!

>>8733311
Believe what you want, but if you think her attention-whoring ways are acceptable, you need to leave.

>>8733308

I don't fit in with normal people, I don't fit in with people like me. This is starting to look more appealing. ;_;

But don't worry Anon, if I was really going to kill myself, I already would have. I'm too much of a wimp to even do that.

>>8733326
Fuck off, whore.

>>8733325

I don't usually mention my gender in NEET threads, but some other girl did, so I thought it might be comforting for her to know there's other girls out there like her. It was comforting to know, for me, too, I guess. It's just nice to feel like maybe it's not your fault because there's other people out there going through the same things.

>>8733343
There aren't. You should take your leave now.

Every single one hates you, and you deserve it for what you are. Dirty fucking slut.

>>8733359

Well I'm sorry Anon, I'm just trying to be a good Gumifriend. Maybe you can't relate to being a NEET or a shut in, but then I would ask yourself, what are you doing in a thread about being a NEET then?

If you're in a shitty blog thread don't be shocked when people who aren't exactly like you decided to join the party.

>>8733374
Fuck off, whore.

Sorry I missed your last post.

>>8733374
Come to channel jaypeegirls at Rizon.

>>8733325
I'll worry about avatarfags after all the tripfags shitposters are dead and buried.
Stupid faggots like you who can't take it easy scare away nice people like this person. Only proffesional autistlords like Tokiko will stand being covered in feces because they are so backwards they love it.
I'm also a bit mad that this person is playing the "im a nerdy gurlll" card on an anonymous forum. My reflex was also shouting something like "your throat gulping down my cum would make a lewd noise, slut" but in the end it's not good for the board, because I hold some hope that she does not avatarfag most of the time and contributes to normal discussion as anon.

>>8733389
Shut up AoC.

>>8733374
Im 24 years of age, approaching my 6th year of being NEET, thus making my reason for being in this thread valid.

And then I see this filthy whore in the thread, making me rage.

>>8733389
Sometimes things happen that make it really hard to take it easy. This is one of those things.

I was about to whiteknight this girl, but then I read her posts and quietly abandoned that idea.

It really doesn't matter If your a girl or guy as long as you don't ever bring it up, just stay anon, please.
