More to the point, if you are unhappy but accept the idea that happiness exists in the world, then to not inquire as to whether your particular circumstances and environment are the cause of your unhappiness, and then at least try to change them, is pure foolishness.

Evangelion figured this one out.

rosen (as an example) used to get embarassed for me for playing gameboy in public

a sentiment i wouldn't understand for years to come, and in many ways still don't

i'm pretty unapologetic about the things i like to do, even when it would be considered rational to be at least a bit closed-lipped in the context of one's surroundings

i would have been one of those killed for standing up for his beliefs if i had any that were more controversial and lived in a country where such was more likely - instead i just annoy anyone who isn't a nerd into leaving me the hell alone

i <3 haters

Right, well, let me answer the question I put to you for you.

I'm tied to this computer all day every day because I am in a fucking hole.

I have a lot of student loans.  A ridiculous amount.  I also have no degree, because I ran out of money in before my last year of college.  All this happened because I was trying to be something I wasn't for people who demanded I be somehow interested in things that I wasn't.  Granted, those were my parents, not my friends, but the very act of pretending to give a damn about something I didn't, on account of social pressures, left me fucking buried, burnt out, and unable to function in the world well enough to overcome all the shit I had put on myself to make people happy.  I cut off all relationships I had and moved someplace where nobody knew me, and tried to redo my life over.

So I am now working, constantly, for a way to get ahead, to get into some position that I can at least maintain my current level instead of continuing to get dragged down by the shit I had put on myself just to get some form of approval.  To the point where, no, my loneliness isn't caused by any lack of social graces or my (admittedly existent) general hatred for mankind, but by the fact that I simply do not have time for anything else except this, an outlet form of communication which I can use quickly without (usually) interrupting anything.

I do not recommend pretending to be anything for anyone, ever, for any reason.

That is why I dog on fucking kickball.

Warning: While you were

Shut the fuck up you ignorant junior psychoanalyst.

Do you passionately hate kickball?  To the point where the idea of spending an hour or two playing the sport with other 22-32 year old adults fills you with rage?

If you're using kickball as an example, then yes.

Playing kickball is like admitting you're unable to participate in an actual sport.

Yes yes but you still haven't explained why you dog on kickball.  


You still haven't explained why you hate people you've never even met.

I just did.

Unless you're actually going to try and argue the specific merits of fucking kickball with me.  Seriously?  Are you literally in third grade?

No, you explained why you resent people whom you feel wronged you.  This is not humanity at large.  Your parents will not be playing in your kickball league.

(ps kickball is a metaphor for social interaction with new people or perhaps even change in general you see)

(pps I am going easy on you.)

brentai your complaints about not having time for social interaction beyond messageboards seem like bullshit in the face of this really long let's play I'm watching that you seem to have had time to make.

I don't resent anybody.  You are confusing me with a character from a book.

I do not feel I would have anything in common with anybody in a kickball league, because I think kickball is fucking retarded.  That is not the same as despising them.  That is the same as not having any fucking interest in wasting my incredibly valuable time with them.

While we're at it, I would not have in anything in common with any of the actual groups that have apparently sprung up around here.  Russian studies.  Tennis.  Fucking ghost chasers?  And lots and lots of women's leagues and bible groups.  Naaaaah.

If you're truly so bored that you're going to go do something boring to meet other bored people, well, I guess that's not the worst thing you can be doing with yourself.  But don't attempt to tell me that it's what I should be fucking around with when you're not even interested in even understanding where the hell I'm coming from.  I've got better things to do.

brentai your complaints about not having time for social interaction beyond messageboards seem like bullshit in the face of this really long let's play I'm watching that you seem to have had time to make.

I started that game 23 days ago.  Currently, the LP is 7 hours and 11 minutes in.  That means I average about 18 minutes per day.

Do you understand me?  That is the only thing I do when I'm not working.

(And before you fuckers open your fat mouths, I post all this shit during upload/download times, of which there are thankfully a lot, or else I'd prooooobably explode.)

That.  Right there.  Can you honestly read that and not realize how retarded it really is to dismiss people because of one thing they choose to do with their time?

Flip the script.  I like World of Warcraft.  Do you actually think I'm BFFs with everybody whom I've ever played?

What.  The.  Fuck.  Ever.

At the moment I feel perfectly justified in being selective about who I waste my time on.  In fact

But you do enjoy playing World of Warcraft, right? You're not just playing it for the social interactions, I'd hope.
