Oh hey, that's me, except I was shitposting about it during the upcoming weeks on Ganker. A shame I lost all the images to a dead HDD. Don't be lazy with your backups.
Why do you think Skyrim is so loved on Ganker now despite this board hating it on release? All the kids that played it as their first Elder Scrolls game are the main posters now.
>Why do you think Skyrim is so loved on Ganker now
Because Ganker loves shitting on anticipated games at release. But now that the dust has settled, despite the pruning of abilities and such, it was a step up from previous ones in some aspects. Each TES since Daggerfall has its ups and downs but are overall good games.
i was 12 years old when skyrim came out, and now i'm a 23 year old software developer making six figures
i literally graduated elementary school, high school, and university, and began my career, before elder scrolls 6 came out

It's never too late to fix yourself. I stopped being a neet at 25 years old and got my first job last year. I'm nearing 28 and seeing zoomers make 6 figures makes me feel bad sometimes. But better focus on oneself, thinking about others is wasted brain RAM. If you can, pick up something related to programming.

nothing stopping you from taking a month long course to become a maintenance guy and finding a lady your age
Dude I feelnlike this I’m 23 and neeted away 21 and 22. Loneliness is haunting it’s like a sad void in my head. I am starting college next month and have decided to restart and say I’m 21 as I look the age and try to make friends and a gf. I can’t believe I oushed so many people away
> I am starting college next month and have decided to restart and say I’m 21 as I look the age and try to make friends and a gf
I was in your exact position and felt like an oldgay compared to the 18 year olds I was taking classes with. Turns out there were other 20 year olds, 23 year olds taking classes with me.
I would say don't lie and don't worry about that. But do be proactive in approaching people and getting what you want. Rejection does not matter. It doesn't.
If real, he's just moronic.
Yes, at 40 it's too late to make something of yourself if you've started with nothing if you want to be an expert in a field but literally nothing is stopping him volunteering, taking some courses, making some friends and at least being happy. At the end of the day success only matters as much as you care about it. People live out their entire lives in dead end or shit jobs yet still find ways to enjoy life.
I dropped out of school at 13 and have been a NEET for a decade straight. My life is really boring and kinda shitty but I'm so apathetic I can't bring myself to care about anything.

GamerGate was the redpill for a lot of people here, this board got ruined not because of it but because of what it was reacting to, which is the general pozzing of all media to push LGBT bs and whatever narrative ((they)) were pushing to ruin things further. Fast forward to now with shit like BLM's "peaceful protests" happening and now all people seem genuinely deranged and not worth talking to, there's a reason why autists meme about clown world, because it really feels like the whole world lost their minds in these recent years and most media feels like it's trying to shove ideas and propaganda down your throat. It's all so tiresome.

Also theres like, 5 different anons here.

Leave your house and stop reading /LULZ/ cowardly homosexual.
No one's just going to love you to love you, take care of yourself and give them something to love you fricking loser.
I'm a 31 year old wizard. As you get older, your sex drive typically decreases and thus you tend to care less about it. Honestly I feel pretty good about not having soul-crushing sexual and social anxiety and feel less of a desire for relationships and sex. That being said, I was once in your shoes and felt the way you did. You may think you're old, but you're actually extremely young and have your entire life to have sex.
Today was my 24th birthday. I'm a NEET with a shitload of savings stashed away. Not really sure what to do. I'm not depressed or desire a gf or anything though. My whole family is also constantly relying on me for money loans (they do pay it back) because they're all hovering around $0 on their bank accounts, so presently I can't say I even feel bad about being a NEET either. I do pay a very small rent to my dad and I've got NEETbucks till next year. I do have 2 friends from childhood I talk to so I'm not exactly lonely either.
I have no idea if this is moronic or not, but I've been using my NEET free time to start learning Jap. I may or may not want to use it someday to get into the translation/localization industry but that's a far way off and even then I'm not even really sure about it.
Not really sure how I feel. If it were up to me I'd like to just play my games and watch my anime until death but I know time will run out someday, I just am not sure where to go from here.
>I have no idea if this is moronic or not, but I've been using my NEET free time to start learning Jap. I may or may not want to use it someday to get into the translation/localization industry but that's a far way off and even then I'm not even really sure about it.
do it. japshit needs less troonylators.
i actually don't know anything about that industry so maybe you have to be a troony to get hired idk
translation/localization industry (for anything except business-related deals ie mergers/international deals/etc) is shit. youll get paid shit and no one will care if you quit because they have random weeb#232385 to take your spot, and they dont care if its a shit translation because its just for gaymes/media/etc so it doesnt matter.
if you want to do it as a hobby/ask for donations, that'd be for the best.
Alright what about this. I'm 26 and day trade crypto. I take extremely high risks but I'm basically a neet the rest of the time. Am I wasting my life if I'm at least making money trading?
You're not making money in the bear, even the shitcoin and the NFT scene is dried up now and only the established shit is barely surviving.
That said I technically am in a similar situation, just being comfy living off the money I did make during the last bullrun, even though I have a career I haven't had the need to actually go out there and find a job and have instead been doing random gigs in the shitcoin space which pay really well, it's good experience as well technically.
the real blackpill is knowing once you get to the actual point of early retirement you're basically in the same place as being a neet. Money can buy you survival but it can't buy you purpose.
>making meaningful money in bear
Doubt.
you can short sell if you didn't know that moron, also theres regular 5% fluctuations every day in some area if you know what you're doing you can make the same returns as some people expect in a year on certain investments.
you can do it 1x with a stop loss and have more margin to prevent liquidation. You shouldn't be trading more than 1% of your portfolio anyway so its really no less safe than going long at this point.
>Everything is ephemeral
'All of us are creatures of a day; the rememberer and the remembered alike. All is ephemeral – both memory and the object of memory. The time is at hand when you will have forgotten everything; and the time is at hand when all will have forgotten you. Always reflect that soon you will be no one ...and nowhere'
— Marcus Aurelius, The Meditations
"And all the ones you know yourself, one after another. One who laid out another for burial, and was buried himself, and then the man who buried him - all in the same short space of time."
Doesn't help that the modern day is unironically so fricked both economically and socially, with shit like housing being unattainable now and how nobody speaks to anyone anymore because people find their amusement on one of 6 internet sites now and solitude is an epidemic despite having 3x the global population (there are video comparisons of the 80s and modern times where people actually used to make fun small talk in stores wherein now everyone just stays quiet like we're all used to).
>there are video comparisons of the 80s and modern times where people actually used to make fun small talk in stores wherein now everyone just stays quiet like we're all used to >bro a couple of goofy homosexuals joking around in a 7/11 at 2am in the eighties represented a different time bro...
The general public was just as rude and antisocial then as they are now. Service people are literally trained to be polite and put up with as much bullshit. >I'm nearing 28 and seeing zoomers make 6 figures makes me feel bad sometimes.
It doesn't bother so much when I remind myself that nearly anyone doesn't really make that much money by truly working hard anymore, just by nepotism or being attractive and young. Talking to people who earn 6 figs in their 20's are almost entirely working in tech and will be the first to tell you that their job is bullshit and they do only 2-3 hours of "real" work a week.
Remember, the world beats you up over the fact that's its not about the fact that you didn't do the hard work to get to that point, its that you didn't position yourself INTO that point.
There's a reason we keep telling you all to learn to code, tech jobs are just really needed now and it's true that you can just do 2 - 3 hours of "real" work a week since most code and software just requires you to come up with clever solutions rather than work your ass off for schlongberg all day long.
What do you desk jockeys even produce? Like what the frick are you people even coding to make your jobs so lucrative when people who maintain and build IRL infrastructure make like 40k a year?

You wouldn't believe the fact that most programmers and computer engineers actually agree with you, we are aware that what we do in the end just helps ((them)) enslave and manipulate normies, and in fact most of us barely pick up our phones and tell normies to do the same, which is extremely ironic because back in the day we were the ones who wouldn't stop playing or messing around with consoles computers and all sorts of tech shit. As an addendum most zoomers are probably too mentally moronic due to overexposure to social media and being basically raised by youtube on their phones to be proper programmers nowadays, the newer statistics show that zoomers are unironically too moronic to use a computer properly nowadays since we filled everything with "intuitive UIs" and nobody gets to tamper with anything anymore.
Overall it's a depressing future that's coming but hey at least we're making bank and we already hate most normies anyway.

I love when Zoomers pretend to be le old. If you have nostalgia for the 2000s then you are a Zoomer. If you don't remember the 90s then you are a Zoomer.
2000's were so good tho >early internet. nothing censored and you can find small blogs and whatnot. It was still full of wonder. Internet was also still niche compared to now >no iphones and shit so people actually engaged with eachother >emo trend >some of the best online games released
The 2000's were fine. Though it was a transitory period where the internet showed the possibility for creative expression, but the services and commericializtion wasn't quite there yet. It was the dying vestiges of legacy media and systems that were controlled for 40 years by ~~*them*~~, which is why everything involving the internet and content sharing had so much fud against it.
the 2010's is literally were it was game over. What was once the most important tool for freedom of expression and content sharing had now been overtaken by advertisers and corporate interests. Compare 2006 youtube with 2016 youtube. People literally speedrunning to the bottom in order to do everything to please the algorithim and maximise as much money as possible by pleasing advertising corporations. Music can no longer be shared without being flagged by AI algos (even if you own the copyright), EVERY "service" is built around selling your data to advertisers.
The internet was supposed to be different to how the legacy media worked. It was supposed to be a liberation. But as usual, advertising controls the world and the people at the top always get what they want. It's over. And it's fricking sad.
I lived adolescence through the end of college on ultraviolence mode. graduated despite being a friendless, autistic, mentally-ill permavirgin. then good activated nightmare mode and gave me schizophrenia and they had to put me into cyro-sleep (antipsychotics) for five years and now I am 30 and unemployable. probably always was unemployable. some of us are just rejected by society at birth.
great way to spend the night, huh?
wallowing in misery and yearning for days long gone, which probably weren't that good to begin with.
you homosexuals could be playing video games right now.
I'm basically trying to get emulators working on Steam Deck that I had trouble with, so I'm not just spending all my time here.
Not exactly used to using some of this shit, some of it is stupidly easy and some of it seems arcane.
Why when videogames fricking suck nowadays, 65% of Ganker posters probably don't even really play that much anymore. Would rather just be here talking shit.
>videogames fricking suck nowadays
play games that arent from today that dont suck, then. even if you're in you're 30's, theres almost certainly a ton of good games that you've never touched, just waiting to be played for the first time. I just beat castle crashers this week; never played it before but it was fricking fun as hell while it lasted
>Dead Rising came out almost 16 years ago >is still the most fun and immersive zombie sandbox game I've played
And I was late as frick to the DR party, I played it in 2019 and was blown away. It feels next gen. I can only imagine how mind-blowing it must've been to play when it came out.
>not a virgin >been with current gf for 8 years >had multiple part-time jobs after college >currently NEET and extremely happy about it
I don't like how fast time is moving but at least I can claim I've accomplished some things besides video games
It's kind of the reverse. Everyone tells me not to get into a relationship because they'll drain my money or ruin my life or whatever.
It's probably some weird cope with knowing I'll never get into a relationship anyway so they try to make me feel good about that.
I'm not interested anyway
7 years ago I was neet and broke, now I'm not broke and I just want to neet again. frick waging, if I have to kiss ass to my boss and to another client one more time I think I'm gonna kms.
Girlfriends, dates, and the activities the average person goes through are just a fantasy to me. I can't imagine those things being a part of my reality. It's like imagining having superpowers it just doesn't make sense.
It's only going to get faster, OP.

Technically it was 6 years ago as well

2020 was the year everything went downhill for me personally
I remember saying "Brawl was 8 years ago" back in 2016. Now Smash 4 was almost 8 years ago.
>people still obsessed with super smash bros melee
Still unbelievable
>theres still never been a game as good as melee

unbelievable
Ultimate is better
shut the frick up moron
Everyone that posts on this website will be dead in around 100 years or so.
>2012 was 10 years ago
>every single thread since 2012 is trash
NOT SO FAST
hard to believe that drumpf ruined this entire website 6 years ago.
Gamergate was the beginning of the end. The electiongays just put the nail in the coffin.
GamerGate was the redpill for a lot of people here, this board got ruined not because of it but because of what it was reacting to, which is the general pozzing of all media to push LGBT bs and whatever narrative ((they)) were pushing to ruin things further. Fast forward to now with shit like BLM's "peaceful protests" happening and now all people seem genuinely deranged and not worth talking to, there's a reason why autists meme about clown world, because it really feels like the whole world lost their minds in these recent years and most media feels like it's trying to shove ideas and propaganda down your throat. It's all so tiresome.
hes still seething
just delete /misc/ lol
frick that
i'm fine with /misc/ indoctrinating idiots as long as it keeps people in their containment board.
You know they will flood every other board if its deleted, unless mods get reasonable and ban all the /misc/ idiots
Just delete /misc/ and ban the users, just like moot did with the furry board lol.
>i'm fine with /misc/ indoctrinating idiots as long as it keeps people in their containment board.
It's very clearly done a shit job at that.

>22 but still a virgin
Be honest, how fricked am I?
You only get out of life what you put into it, and you've got 80% of your life left to live, so live well.
Your adult life has only just started lol
get it out of the way and focus on a career
sex is boring, it in itself is pretty worthless. You can do it easily on a hookup website or pay a hooker if you want someone skilled but its still boring tbh
Not even that fricked man. I'm 34 and just getting things together now, you are no where past a point of no return or anything like that
we're all gonna make it, bros...
you're (not getting) fricked
I meet lots of women in real life who are not like this at all
I doubt lots of women are offering unsolicited opinions on how they don't hate virgins in real life
These demorilization posts are fricking disgusting and I'm 99% sure these are a psyop.
I've met women that aren't c**ts but you have to find them.
Find them where?
literally everywhere
You shouldn't search in the dredges of dumb internet forums with horrible communities...
That doesn't exactly tell me much, assuming I took you seriously to begin with. Thanks.
try discord or something idk
I can't rule your life.
Also theres like, 5 different anons here.
Genuinely you just need to start being someone who can take responsibility and be mature about your situation
anon it's not an open secret women tend to not like male virgins and it only gets worse the older you get
Leave your house and stop reading /LULZ/ cowardly homosexual.
No one's just going to love you to love you, take care of yourself and give them something to love you fricking loser.
Nor am I going to go out of my way or love women simply for existing, why so antagonistic?
>can't even answer the question
>gets mad
>he rolls over and says "just so you know you were my first"
i'll kneel to that. based. thats how you do it
that's not that bad. I'm nearly a wizard.
>tfw 23 virgin
I think I stopped caring at 21/22
Idk how fricked we are
Every woman I talk to is a trainwreck and it blackpills me hard.
It's over
I'm a 31 year old wizard. As you get older, your sex drive typically decreases and thus you tend to care less about it. Honestly I feel pretty good about not having soul-crushing sexual and social anxiety and feel less of a desire for relationships and sex. That being said, I was once in your shoes and felt the way you did. You may think you're old, but you're actually extremely young and have your entire life to have sex.
32yo wizard here, you can do it kid. frick a boipussy if you have to.
>The DayZ mod was 9 years ago
Is the standalone even good yet? Last I played it was worse than the mod.
Today was my 24th birthday. I'm a NEET with a shitload of savings stashed away. Not really sure what to do. I'm not depressed or desire a gf or anything though. My whole family is also constantly relying on me for money loans (they do pay it back) because they're all hovering around $0 on their bank accounts, so presently I can't say I even feel bad about being a NEET either. I do pay a very small rent to my dad and I've got NEETbucks till next year. I do have 2 friends from childhood I talk to so I'm not exactly lonely either.
I have no idea if this is moronic or not, but I've been using my NEET free time to start learning Jap. I may or may not want to use it someday to get into the translation/localization industry but that's a far way off and even then I'm not even really sure about it.
Not really sure how I feel. If it were up to me I'd like to just play my games and watch my anime until death but I know time will run out someday, I just am not sure where to go from here.
>I have no idea if this is moronic or not, but I've been using my NEET free time to start learning Jap. I may or may not want to use it someday to get into the translation/localization industry but that's a far way off and even then I'm not even really sure about it.
do it. japshit needs less troonylators.
i actually don't know anything about that industry so maybe you have to be a troony to get hired idk
translation/localization industry (for anything except business-related deals ie mergers/international deals/etc) is shit. youll get paid shit and no one will care if you quit because they have random weeb#232385 to take your spot, and they dont care if its a shit translation because its just for gaymes/media/etc so it doesnt matter.
if you want to do it as a hobby/ask for donations, that'd be for the best.
youll meet other people with similar interest tho
If you actually like japanese, then it's a good career field
have a nice day now and end the troubles, OP.
I don't think you know how that meme works
I’m in a much better place than I was then. Thank god.
>all these NEETs
Alright what about this. I'm 26 and day trade crypto. I take extremely high risks but I'm basically a neet the rest of the time. Am I wasting my life if I'm at least making money trading?
>Am I wasting my life if I'm at least making money trading?
If you're self sufficient and happy you're not wasting your life
> day trade crypto. I take extremely high risks
Are you actually making money though
Yeah. Six figures worth
I doubt that, but if true then you're doing great
>making meaningful money in bear
Doubt.
>He didn't buy the flash crash of eth at 888 and 1007 when the cpi dip happened

>He didn't buy the flash crash of eth at 888 and 1007 when the cpi dip happened
Waiting for a repeat in the next 2 weeks, honestly.
You're not making money in the bear, even the shitcoin and the NFT scene is dried up now and only the established shit is barely surviving.
That said I technically am in a similar situation, just being comfy living off the money I did make during the last bullrun, even though I have a career I haven't had the need to actually go out there and find a job and have instead been doing random gigs in the shitcoin space which pay really well, it's good experience as well technically.
the real blackpill is knowing once you get to the actual point of early retirement you're basically in the same place as being a neet. Money can buy you survival but it can't buy you purpose.
you can short sell if you didn't know that moron, also theres regular 5% fluctuations every day in some area if you know what you're doing you can make the same returns as some people expect in a year on certain investments.
>doing leverage at all
that's a good way to lose all of your money in a few hours.
you can do it 1x with a stop loss and have more margin to prevent liquidation. You shouldn't be trading more than 1% of your portfolio anyway so its really no less safe than going long at this point.

Doesn't help that the modern day is unironically so fricked both economically and socially, with shit like housing being unattainable now and how nobody speaks to anyone anymore because people find their amusement on one of 6 internet sites now and solitude is an epidemic despite having 3x the global population (there are video comparisons of the 80s and modern times where people actually used to make fun small talk in stores wherein now everyone just stays quiet like we're all used to).

The general public was just as rude and antisocial then as they are now. Service people are literally trained to be polite and put up with as much bullshit.
>I'm nearing 28 and seeing zoomers make 6 figures makes me feel bad sometimes.
It doesn't bother so much when I remind myself that nearly anyone doesn't really make that much money by truly working hard anymore, just by nepotism or being attractive and young. Talking to people who earn 6 figs in their 20's are almost entirely working in tech and will be the first to tell you that their job is bullshit and they do only 2-3 hours of "real" work a week.
Remember, the world beats you up over the fact that's its not about the fact that you didn't do the hard work to get to that point, its that you didn't position yourself INTO that point.
There's a reason we keep telling you all to learn to code, tech jobs are just really needed now and it's true that you can just do 2 - 3 hours of "real" work a week since most code and software just requires you to come up with clever solutions rather than work your ass off for schlongberg all day long.
What do you desk jockeys even produce? Like what the frick are you people even coding to make your jobs so lucrative when people who maintain and build IRL infrastructure make like 40k a year?
a lot of them keep sites like twitter, facebook, google etc running.
they are creating and refining all the systems being used by powerful psychopaths to turn humans into datapoints
You wouldn't believe the fact that most programmers and computer engineers actually agree with you, we are aware that what we do in the end just helps ((them)) enslave and manipulate normies, and in fact most of us barely pick up our phones and tell normies to do the same, which is extremely ironic because back in the day we were the ones who wouldn't stop playing or messing around with consoles computers and all sorts of tech shit. As an addendum most zoomers are probably too mentally moronic due to overexposure to social media and being basically raised by youtube on their phones to be proper programmers nowadays, the newer statistics show that zoomers are unironically too moronic to use a computer properly nowadays since we filled everything with "intuitive UIs" and nobody gets to tamper with anything anymore.
Overall it's a depressing future that's coming but hey at least we're making bank and we already hate most normies anyway.
Which programming language do you recommend?
Picking a language to start with is like picking a class in a Souls game. It stops mattering after you gain a few levels.
nta but c++ and python are good for beginners you can start by making games to learn the basics until you know enough to try something productive
Thank you for at least being honest and rational about it.
Is age 29 too late to start coding?
wow its almost like one of those scales way better than the other
are you 16 by any chance?

I love when Zoomers pretend to be le old. If you have nostalgia for the 2000s then you are a Zoomer. If you don't remember the 90s then you are a Zoomer.
the 2000s was the last good decade to grow up in, everything afterwards is pozzed shit made to mind control the youth, social media ruined humanity.
What if I remember the 90s and have nostalgia for the early 2000s?
2000's were so good tho
>early internet. nothing censored and you can find small blogs and whatnot. It was still full of wonder. Internet was also still niche compared to now
>no iphones and shit so people actually engaged with eachother
>emo trend
>some of the best online games released
Everything went to shit in the 2000s. you were just a kid so you didn't know any better. The reason why shit is so bad now is because of the 2000s.
The 2000's were fine. Though it was a transitory period where the internet showed the possibility for creative expression, but the services and commericializtion wasn't quite there yet. It was the dying vestiges of legacy media and systems that were controlled for 40 years by ~~*them*~~, which is why everything involving the internet and content sharing had so much fud against it.
the 2010's is literally were it was game over. What was once the most important tool for freedom of expression and content sharing had now been overtaken by advertisers and corporate interests. Compare 2006 youtube with 2016 youtube. People literally speedrunning to the bottom in order to do everything to please the algorithim and maximise as much money as possible by pleasing advertising corporations. Music can no longer be shared without being flagged by AI algos (even if you own the copyright), EVERY "service" is built around selling your data to advertisers.
The internet was supposed to be different to how the legacy media worked. It was supposed to be a liberation. But as usual, advertising controls the world and the people at the top always get what they want. It's over. And it's fricking sad.
Don't worry guys
Soon I'll wake up and it'll be the summer of 2009 again
It's all okay
>born in 88

/vr/ has the highest congregation of 30+ year olds from what i've seen.
Teach me your ways old man.
'82 here. turn forty in a few months. I win?
81 here
some people come here in their 50s
I feel bad for the parents of all you neets honestly
normal parents don't end up with neet offspring, this almost always seems to stem from neglect
how?
I lived adolescence through the end of college on ultraviolence mode. graduated despite being a friendless, autistic, mentally-ill permavirgin. then good activated nightmare mode and gave me schizophrenia and they had to put me into cyro-sleep (antipsychotics) for five years and now I am 30 and unemployable. probably always was unemployable. some of us are just rejected by society at birth.
>The soulless Mario 64 DS remake is almost 18 years old
great way to spend the night, huh?
wallowing in misery and yearning for days long gone, which probably weren't that good to begin with.
you homosexuals could be playing video games right now.
I'm basically trying to get emulators working on Steam Deck that I had trouble with, so I'm not just spending all my time here.
Not exactly used to using some of this shit, some of it is stupidly easy and some of it seems arcane.
I would probably be lost from the start, so you're a tech wizard in my eyes. Good luck anon, hope you get some good shit working on it eventually
Why when videogames fricking suck nowadays, 65% of Ganker posters probably don't even really play that much anymore. Would rather just be here talking shit.
>videogames fricking suck nowadays
play games that arent from today that dont suck, then. even if you're in you're 30's, theres almost certainly a ton of good games that you've never touched, just waiting to be played for the first time. I just beat castle crashers this week; never played it before but it was fricking fun as hell while it lasted
>the non-existance of a new F-Zero game will be old enough to vote in October
>Dead Rising came out almost 16 years ago
>is still the most fun and immersive zombie sandbox game I've played
And I was late as frick to the DR party, I played it in 2019 and was blown away. It feels next gen. I can only imagine how mind-blowing it must've been to play when it came out.
>not a virgin
>been with current gf for 8 years
>had multiple part-time jobs after college
>currently NEET and extremely happy about it
I don't like how fast time is moving but at least I can claim I've accomplished some things besides video games

Oh look it's that moronic and disingenuous redditchan post.
What the frick
Do your parents still ask about your no gf?
Mine have given up tbh
i live with my mother and gf, they get along well
thank god we have 3 bedrooms, im an insanely light sleeper.
It's kind of the reverse. Everyone tells me not to get into a relationship because they'll drain my money or ruin my life or whatever.
It's probably some weird cope with knowing I'll never get into a relationship anyway so they try to make me feel good about that.
I'm not interested anyway
They're not wrong, depending on who you end up with.
>bro getting a girlfriend is such an accomplishment wow make the family proud
The worst one yet. Generic life is pointless drivel.
You really have over 53 of these?
2030 is 8 years away
>we're closer to 2030 than 2014
And you will be happy.
And to think games were already pozzed normified SJW trans shit even at that point for years. This industry hasn't been shit in over a decade.
7 years ago I was neet and broke, now I'm not broke and I just want to neet again. frick waging, if I have to kiss ass to my boss and to another client one more time I think I'm gonna kms.
Girlfriends, dates, and the activities the average person goes through are just a fantasy to me. I can't imagine those things being a part of my reality. It's like imagining having superpowers it just doesn't make sense.
