/n/ - NEET

>>14860
And i forgot wastefullness, people throw away lots of usable stuff and only half use what they have, its horrible.

>>14853
To be honest I had essentially the same thing in my mind when I said "work up to our potential as a species"; it's pretty depressing that we really can't seem to, has been to me since I was 12. Fuck's sake, we make not even get off this rock with any sort of permanency before we blow ourselves away.
Only caveat I'd add to that idea is some sort of assurance that freedom of speech and political organization is retained. Still wary about the effects on that of handing so much power to the state, for reasons that should be fairly obvious.

Try this, I wrote these a long time ago.

There would be the means for every person to find a place of comfort.

>>14863
Whaaa :D
This looks really awesome. Thank you for linking it.
(And sorry for not reading the thread long enough to see that you had turned it into a story. Laziness bit me in the back there.)

poland is a shithole

>>14836
Explain?

>>14826
Good for you! My older brother wants me to do the exact same, but I don't know if I have the smarts or the responsibility to do such a thing.

>>14836
it's not that bad anon, remember. you must be a fucking tree. Or just buy this fucking orangutan and call 'em Clyde

>>14847
This made my day, thanks.

Why don't you get a job as a security guard? You sit on your ass for 8 hours doing what you normally do, play videogames and shitpost, and they pay you for it.

>>14419
I live in a place with security. It looks soul-crushing. In that position, I would always be wishing for something greater.

It looks like it's either death as a NEET or total fulfillment of dreams.

>>14437
>It looks like it's either death as a NEET or total fulfillment of dreams.
Only one of these is even possible.

>Mine is knowing that I am going to be chained to the system of making money unless I wish to become homeless.

OP, I'd like to inform you of the existence of Financial Independence / Early Retirement. It's possible that by working hard, saving your money, cutting out unnecessary expenses (if you're a neet, you're most likely not very materialistic) and investing wisely (these investments are safe and are not to be compared to the risks involved with trading on the stock market) then after about ten to fifteen years of work, you can retire for good. Those ten to fifteen years will demand that you work relentlessly but it'll work and you'll get there.

>entire youth wasted
I don't think this is for me.

I didn't really like people anyways. Now I'm sick I have an excuse not to talk to any of them.

>>14768
I wish I could live alone under a mountain, or in a small pink house on a tiny island and only have to see a few people a year.

>>14673
I want to open my own manga store someday.
I'd call it "Weeabook"

Sadly that will never happen.
Not many people post here anymore either.
I wonder if i should go outside.

>>14799
>I want to open my own manga store someday.
>I'd call it "Weeabook"

Anon, you nailed it there. Now I want to buy my ero in your store.

I only buy manga from Japanese publishers. I can't read Japanese.

Reading about people struggling to go without fapping for more than a week seems ridiculous to me. You actually start having wet dreams after a whole month of not masturbating? I'm genuinely intrigued by this, because not fapping is so fucking easy. Just make yourself think of something else. There are millions upon millions of other things to busy your mind with other than fantasizing about blowjobs and tentacle rape. It's not like you're a pig or a rabbit or something like that. Just direct your thoughts elsewhere. I'm really fascinated by this.

Then again maybe that's what it could've been like ten years ago or someshit. It's not like I tried going celibate until my late twenties so maybe it just gets that much easier with time.

Yeah, have you ever heard by any chance of hormones, and what happens between your teenage until your early twenties?

>>14790
Heh yea I thnik I've heard them mentioned sometime ago man but I appreciate u reminding me of that stuff. U fucking owned me man I forgot I'm ten yrs 2 old 4 this board.

ps. nice witch avatar I love witches too

>>14793

That butt be looking nice and firm.

>>14243
I haven't held a pen in 5 years. I'd be surprised if i can still even scribble.

>>14208
Thank you very much

I'm still trying to get in the habit of reading a chapter of the book a day, so I'm still trying really hard not to forget to do that.

I think that I understated the power of having nothing to do. It really is one of the only things I do to stave off bordom, that and pic relted

>>14244
Oekaki is just right there, you don't necessarily need to write it with a pen in paper. By the way, I usually write and mine is still shitty.

Aren't there any more people practicing handwritten kanji?

>>14221

>0 seeder

That helps a lot Anon. Arigato

I use all the my documents / my pictures / my videos on my computer. helps keep the filesystem organized.

desktop and downloads are a mess and I probably need to defrag(do we still need to do this, it's 2015!!)

>>14682
Please refrain from being mean to the people here, a lot of them have had tragic events happen in their lifes.

I don’t because the documents folder is in C:, where the OS is installed, and I have had past experiences of C: going mad or dying and I and other people losing all their shit because it was kept on the documents folder or on the desktop. I keep everything neatly organized on folders created by myself in D:, except installed programs.

I have a million completely unorganized folders and I just happen to remember where everything is

Drop the drugs.

It will all pass once you leave your teenage phase behind.

>>14730
But they make me feel all warm, fuzzy and nice inside.

Take your crazy energy and focus it into something constructive, or destructive, or just something stupid, it's really up to you.

>>14731

This, pretty much. There's not really such a thing as "going crazy", you're just mentally ill. Though even that can be solved with appropriate meds.

>>14559
Good luck.
I'm planning on doing the same, scarcely ever even been on a consistent schedule before though.

>>14559

Best of luck to you! Try not to psyche yourself out too hard like I did. Yes, it's a daunting task and there's lots of hard work on the horizon, but please remember to step back and take a deep breath every once in a while! You aren't yet out in the world running businesses or saving lives. Obviously school isn't something one should treat with flippant regard, and you will need to remind yourself from time to time that it is very important and even if you don't want to work, it must still be done. But at the same time, pushing your nose to the grindstone and never pulling up can be just as detrimental as blowing the whole thing off.

Things aren't going too well at present. For about four months now, I've been strung along by a potential employer with whom I would've been absolutely delighted to work. Just a few minutes ago, they called me – after keeping me waiting for several days longer than they originally said it would take to make this decision – only to inform me that, despite the fact that I made it to the very last stage of the hiring process, the Senior VP of something or another had decided that I wasn't ready for the position for some undisclosed reason. It seems now that they're going to try and dump me unceremoniously into some IT role at the same company, even though it's not at all related to the position for which I applied and for which I spent all those years both in college and practicing on my own.

Additionally, several unrelated stressful incidents have occurred lately in rapid succession, leaving me completely emotionally exhausted. Of particular note is that the parties involved in the incidents in question have also been participants in similarly tiring happenings in the not-so-distant past. To phrase it more directly, I find myself wondering about what I'm getting out of my friendships with these people, as I'm beginning to have a distinct feeling that my friends are doing an awfully large amount of taking and aren't doing much giving at all – in contrast with the notion of a friendship being a mutually beneficial and enjoyable bond.

I have no desire, however, to berate or heckle them on the issue, as they're either troubled or not conscious of the imbalance. That is, nearest that I can tell, none of them are intentionally taking advantage of me, and many of them truly need assistance and support and favors – the bulk of which fall to me due to a lack of alternative sources on their end. It could be a simple matter of saying no to them, but I find it difficult to do so when it's plainly evident that they're hurting or distressed and that a refusal on my part would be tantamount to me abandoning them when they most need the help. At the same time, I'm at my limits here, and I know that this'll keep happening if I don't do anything about it.

sage because more feelings stuff than non-NEET stuff
today is worst

(For a better reading, do it while listening to this fighting BGM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5Ajp_q5UFM ).

Lately I haven't feeling too well, probably because of stress, so, when I had to go to take a test today, I decided I would set my mind in positive and went there in high spirits while playing inside my head cool fighting BGM, as if prepared for a big battle.

I decided this shit wouldn't take over me and that I would fight until the end. I was cool; I felt cool. Almost like I could do anything I wanted; any future I wished for could be seized easily with these bare hands of mine. Everything was predetermined by the dice of destiny, and I was controlling each of the 20 faces of that dice.
For the first time in a while I felt I had an objective clear in front of me, and the stress I had been feeling disappeared completely from my body, and was exchanged by the warm of an intense heat that expanded from my stomach to all of my body, as if I was burning with power.

So I was there, inside of the classroom ready to take anything. My pen on the right side, the calculator on my left, and two blank sheets in the center, each already named and with a number to know the order of pages. I almost felt like yelling at the teacher "Come at me for once, motherfucker".
Test started at 20:00, and when only 5 minutes were left, sensei-chan started naming the people that should be there to take the test. With each classmate that answered they were there, my breath became more and more ragged, as sweat began to strain from my forehead. My nerves told me something was odd, but I kept my cool thinking that I shouldn't give in too early. I was already decided; I had put my guts on this, and I would not yield until the last second. I wouldn't have it any other way. Then, sensei got to the surnames that started with the same letter as mine. The whole classroom freezed, and the tension reached its maximum climax as I sharpened my senses to listen to each of the letters of the surnames.

So, when my name didn't came out, I glared at sensei and asked what the fuck was wrong. Sensei-chan, with a dumbfounded look on his face, asked for my name again, and after looking through some papers, he coldly said I didn't pass the last test and I was out. I couldn't help but keep playing that BGM in my head while wondering whatPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>You are never stuck anywhere and should never be miserable. You can always start fresh. Follow your dreams, dude. Enjoy this one life you've been given. The world is so full of opportunity and possibility at every corner. The future is a blank ticket!
Questionsleep's words stuck with me.

I finally did it, I asked to get laid off once my temporary employment ends, which is not that far from now. (Normally they would just either extend it by another year or so, or transition it to indefinite employment.)

I don't yet know what follows next. I almost feel as if I were making a mistake. It's a terrifying new adventure that awaits me… but I'll gladly take it over the certainty of having a low-skilled job. Worst comes to worst, I'll learn my lesson the hard way and rebuild.

>>14635
You can make a chart like this for yourself too :)

>>14634
I used to have a severe case of this problem. I was a NEET for almost 2 years straight. Over 2 years total.

Eventually, I started believing that if I did not take action, I would not get a boyfriend, and I would not be happy. So, I took action. I think the key factor for me was really believing that I had a reason to do the things I needed to do, or some sort of goal.

Thank you for your post. This is something that I had not thought about in as much detail as I needed to to compose this message.

>>14635

That's a nice chart, thank you for sharing. I should make one for myself. It might help to visualize what I need to do rather than just think about it.

>>14637

I've been NEET since I was 15. I'm 25 now. I think it might be too late for me to change. I've grown so accustomed to NEET life that I don't know anything else.

>>14639
25 is still VERY young. You've got all the time in the world to change. It's never too late, I promise.

>>14652
Youre exagurating a bit, but yes 25 isnt all that late too change.
And yes im sure you can change if you want to, humans are very adaptable creatures, you jsut need a good entry.
