Whenever I see a lightly dressed girl today, my immediate thought is "Is coffee good for you??!!!!?"

I've unironically seen a male out with two females multiple times today. The 80/20 rule is no longer just an online or invisible irl rule.

I went two or three days without junk food and my weight literally went down by almost 2 kg. I know it's water weight but still.

I haven't had fast food for months.

I hope I can be non-fat during summer next year. I was daydreaming about being 20 kg thinner and then walking all day and then binging on fast food at the end of the day.

The vidya I'm playing right now is so grindy. It's just a timesink for losers. Other people code vidya in their spare times, losers like me play them. I haven't even contemplated ever having any type of social life in the past year or something, so maybe I can finally channel the loserdom in to productive activity.

That's because you haven't remained consistently (major key word) disciplined long enough to quench the obsession. Count your calories, track your protein, hit the gym, and stop making excuses like a little bitch.

I often sense an underlying arrogance in LF's lamentations of inferiority. That he can grasp what is time well spent but by his own inferiority not practice what he preaches. Sure, coding a game is more cerebral and demanding and, in ways, more impressive but in the end both -- at the pedestrian level -- are staring at a screen and pushing keys for a few hours until you're sated; "Other people write books in their spare times, losers like me read them," would be a of wording the same allegory. As long as your time is spent consciously and deliberately, the time is spent conscientiously. I don't recall LF having any coding related ambitions (although he is known to jerk off more exact sciences and fields) so I think his complaint about how frivolously he spends his time in that regard stupid. Although I think what I and many of us like about LF's stories is that is about mediocrity in not just action but character: a lot of LF's insights are shallow and middling but it only adds to tragedy of him. Godspeed London Frog, try to remember that any moment can be enjoyed for its simplicity as much as it can be hated for its lack of complexity.

Anon, take slow progress. Incrementally add what you enjoy to your life. There are things that you have to strive for and have to avoid. E.g. try to get enough sleep each night, avoid technology right before bed, ritualize your sleep pattern (read something comfy before bed), if you can find a 'focus' like rock climbing or mma, or something else, that often opens new connections and gets you interested in swimming, better sleep, better diet, etc. Be careful of neurotic over-rationalization, and be careful of judging others, it will harm you badly. You can find love, and what's more you can fall in love with your friends again. All of the goals don't mean much if you hate yourself and the people around you. You have to open your mind to the idea that it doesn't matter that some dude has 2 girls with him out in public, and when you let go of this you may find the path to good action is open to you.

There's a story about Kierkegaard having this issue. He had tuberculosis that had crept into his spine I think and the kids in his area would laugh and called him the crab man or something. But he still did it, both he and Camus talk about walking being a remedy to many ills don't they?
If people think ill of you while you walk, that's something you have to get over, these people have their own things they are completely blind to in themselves, that others see as glaring as the sun. It's not great to have a crab walk, but when you speak to someone try and smile and laugh, and love the people around you, and it won't matter.

Evening walks and Cum Town, what's so bad about that? Listening to Cum Town is a lot better than listening to any political pundit, which feels like 30% of the entertainment people consume right now.

>>16083421
Yea I believe you're right about Kierkegaard believing in the curative power of walks. Nietzsche actually felt similarly. He used to take long hikes I believe.

>> No.16084403

>>16084297
And what about the walk was kino? And yeah, listening to cumtown is pathetic, but judging from everything else you wrote probably not your biggest problem. I also think it’s interesting that you didn’t say how long the walk was which leads me to believe it was probably under a mile and a half, which is lame considering how much time you spent just dicking off

Yeah, been there, I get it. Your priority needs to be replacing the source of your satisfaction with something else. Something goal-oriented. It won't satisfy you at first, but you need to stick with it long enough until it does and becomes as habitual as your indulgence in junk food. Distract yourself with healthier obsessions and goals, and keep in mind that motivation is not a precursor to action, but the other way around.

Come on man, you're rejecting thousands of years of culinary tradition, I understand not obsessing over food but just straight up thinking that food isn't something meant to be enjoyed at all is weird, unless you're going with the ascetic path.

Fitter, happier
More productive
Comfortable
Not drinking too much
Regular exercise at the gym, three days a week
Getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries
At ease
Eating well, no more microwave dinners and saturated fats
A patient, better driver
A safer car, baby smiling in back seat
Sleeping well, no bad dreams
No paranoia
Careful to all animals, never washing spiders down the plughole
Keep in contact with old friends, enjoy a drink now and then
Will frequently check credit at moral bank, hole in wall
Favours for favours, fond but not in love
Charity standing orders on sundays, ring-road supermarket
No killing moths or putting boiling water on the ants
Car wash, also on sundays
No longer afraid of the dark or midday shadows, nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate
Nothing so childish
At a better pace, slower and more calculated
No chance of escape
Now self-employed
Concerned, but powerless
An empowered and informed member of societ, pragmatism not idealism
Will not cry in public
Less chance of illness
Tires that grip in the wet, shot of baby strapped in backseat
A good memory
Still cries at a good film
Still kisses with saliva
No longer empty and frantic
Like a cat
Tied to a stick
That's driven into
Frozen winter shit, the ability to laugh at weakness
Calm, fitter, healthier and more productive
A pig in a cage on antibiotics
