>Had a job>Handsome>Scored a date with a 10>Lived in a big city with lots of things to doDude was a wuss. Most people on here have none of those things
wtf he's literally me
>>218004059Nam did something to him, those gooks put us through the ringer.
>>218004122>wahh I got to be in the last colonial war in Western history and the one with the best movies wawaaah
>>218004122I never found this difficult to believe. I knew it was a trope popularized by Forrest Gump. the "crazy" war veteran that didn't end up shooting themselves like in Full Metal Jacket. In contrast, I found Travis to be very relatable. Especially as he stares into his drink as it fizzles. You don't need to be mentally ill to go crazy.
>>218004059I've had jobs before but honestly if someone can get away with not working without being a literal criminal they just should. But then there's the people that honestly feel like working gives them a purpose and that's absolutely confounding to me, those are the types that there's just no helping.
>>218004307>thinks Forrest Gump popularized the crazy Nam vetThis is why I don't want europeans discussing our history. What a moronic thing to say.
>>218004537Even if I had millions of dollars, a house, and everything I wanted I would still work. Fills me with anxiety not to. You only live once. I spent years of my youth studying abroad in beautiful places and never relaxed.
>handsome>great career>has his own apartment>huge cock>hot sister>I-IM L-LE SAD B-BECAUSE I HAVE SEX EVERYDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!fucking hell, i'd kill to even have one of those. fuck this movie.
>>218004836You wouldn’t get it
>>218004836I'm a 36 year old virgin and even back then when this movie came out it was clear to me that that guy's life would be literal hell.
>>218004059he was broken
>>218004836Peace comes from within. He's internally broken.
>>218004693Being productive is not the same as working a jobif you “need” to work a job when you could comfortably and securely afford not to you’re a spiritually hollow golem and slave
>>218004059Just go to >>>/r9k/ and have a look around. Those people are incapable of using their opportunities.
>>218006169There's always more work to be done.
>>218004059His Dad was a homosexual, how would that make you feel?
>>218006227My dad seems kind of gay, very effeminate in how he acts and looks, and I dislike him for it.
>>218006222do you understand the point or not or are being obtuse about what “working” is meant to mean here in terms of a regular job
>>218006246Perhaps you and I have different conceptions of what a "regular" job is.
>>218004059For a boomer this was basically failing at life.
>>218004059I am literally him.And the problem is that its just a great emptiness, I got no friends because the moment I make some they always try and skirt around and take advantage of me, and its very difficult to make friends when you are an adult, I get women but its honestly not as great as you guys think especially when I can never actually find love like it used to be before I became an adult.>>Lived in a big city with lots of things to doThings to do are fun to do with people you care about if you don't have people you care about they are just empty wastes of time.
