Doesnt it bother you that the vast majority of the /jp/sphere is cancer? People who have sex, money, friends, online circlejerking and so on. The most annoying part is people actually think they're otaku. They call themselves truNEETs, they feel entitled to call others blogposters, shitposters and so on. They are casual social butterflies who don't take Japanese medias seriously, who do not truly love Japan, who are not otaku, and yet, firmly believe they are, call other otaku not otaku, and stay to their circlejerks. The entire /jp/sphere is become this. There is absolutely no place where to discuss anime, manga, vns, th, and so on, outside the reach of norms. All true otaku can do is keep it to themselves, consuming media without even anonymous boards to talk about it every now and then. Most people posting in this thread are the same cancer by the way.

It bothers anyone sensible. Calling yourself an otaku is fucking retarded, so stop that. Nice ebin shitpost tho.

>> No.17240547

the depth of your otaku character is determined by how deeply involved you are in your hobby of choice; your exciting social life or lack of one has nothing to do with it

if you're using the latter as a point of identification rather than the former you're doing it wrong

Ever since we had that cosplay prostitution thread, my bubble that I set up to shield me from reality was burst.

The self-deprivation of ``otaku culture'' is fucking stupid and for many people there is no point in denying yourself these pleasures just to prop up an identity that is unsustainable in the long-run and corrosive to one's mental health

hello w friends it seems there is a lot of debate on what makes a norm and what makes not, so i will help you.
-depression
-virginity
-poor
-hiki
-NEET
-single mother/father
-wizard
those are all charateristics of someone who is not a norm. you are not a norm only if all of those apply to you. however, keep in mind that if you
-travel
-attended college
-have expensive material goods (fumos, dakis, figures, computers etc)
-have good relationship with parent
-post "blogshitter" or ">/r9k/" or similar
-among other similar things
then you are a norm and thus unwelcome on jp
another thing is, anyone who still actually plays videogames, watches anime, reads VN and manga and doujin etc, is also a norm, because it means they're not depressed enough to lose motivation and energy to perform their own hobbies.

Not having depression means you're a norm. To not have depression, you must have friends, you must not be lonely, you must have a healthy diet, you must exercise regularly, you must be able to take medicine for whatever disabilities you have, you must have supporting parents and so on. Whatever you say keep in mind you have it easy. And for that, you are a sucker. You don't belong on /jp/. Your vermin destroyed this place. Next go ahead and tell me of your experience in college, of your great job, of your many trips to Japan, of all the merch you own - dakis, figures, dollfies -, tell me of your great experiences with virtual reality, and how great it is to be alive. And please tell me to fuck off to /r9k/, because that's where losers like me belong. Do me this favor you neurotypical norm piece of shit.

Tell me how is depression bullying any different than NEET bullying, virgin bullying and so on. In all cases it is always people who got lucky in the lottery of life coming to whatever places of the internet where people are trying to discuss hobby stuff, then making fun of the losers, autists, underage, insecure, idiots, whatever you call them, bragging about how they are so much better than the scum of society. That is why you are a norm, and why you should fuck off.

He would be a normalfag at heart if he truly cared. There is a difference between acknowledging that you're a loser by society's standard and being concerned about it. A loser who cares is just as much of a norm as a non-loser in my book. And why wouldn't elon musk care? Just because he's rich? Of course he cares.

>> No.17240792,41 [INTERNAL] 

>>17240792,39
Exactly. And to be truly free of social standards is to not be a norm. Being a norm is contingent on there being some norm standard to which he must adhere. A loser who cares about being a loser is still seeing this norm standard. Once you stop seeing the norm standard, you stop being a norm. This is the only condition, not some bullshit about being depressed or not.

A sociopath can fuck 10 chicks a week, but you wouldn't call him a norm, would you.

All the loser cliques and rebellion factions still operate by the same principles as the people they are fighting against. It's what follows every time humans form a group. As it stands now the closest thing to not being normal is running away by yourself. You are being affected by these words and they are poison to your autonomy, bringing you closer to normalcy and /jp/'s brand of conformity.

You can conform to social standards without believing in them. I will not walk around naked, not because I care about what those around me would think if I did, but because it would be disadvantageous to me. It isn't norm to conform to social standards in public, only the mental aspect counts. This does mean that it is possible for someone to lead a successful social life whilst not being a norm, and this is true. As long as they don't care about it. Although that is very unlikely, since they would at some point start caring and become a norm, or wouldn't be bothered to begin with. This is why there is a correlation between norms and socially successful people.

I've always thought that if you pretend conform, you're still conforming by betraying yourself and allowing them to make you act the way that they expect you to act for credit. It's like being a social prostitute. That's why I can't stand to go in public.

I agree with this 100%. But then all of my thoughts are not really mine, since they were at some point influenced by someone or something else. And I find it very scary how easy emotions can affect my mental state, how susceptible I and everyone else is to the herd mentality inherent in all of humanity.

But here I am making several epistemological and metaphysical assumptions that I accept without any clear justification, or justification made through reason, which can be trusted why? . Then I ask what my "self" is. Then I realise how pointless it all is, but who is it that came to this realisation? Was this realisation influenced by someone else? Now I'm back at war for my autonomy...

You conform because it's necessary if you want to achieve your end. If you really hate someone and truly want to kill them, not killing them doesn't mean that you don't want them dead. It just means that you don't want to go to prison, and not going to prison would be an end that you want to achieve moreso than having that person dead.

This whole thread reeks of normalcy. Do you know when you're a norm? When you have to argue others what your definition is, pointing fingers and telling others they are norms, while claiming you aren't one yourself. It's as simple as that. It's like how you can tell someone is a nigger just by hearing his voice. And yet norms don't understand that.
