Are there any online chatrooms worth going on anymore?
No. Every chat is full of feds, pedophiles, underageb&, and niggers.

I'm so tired of masturbating. I barely feel anything, yet I can't stop beating my meat multiple times a day, I'm depressed before I do it and even more once I'm done. How do I stop it?
Hey everyone, long story short, 4 years ago I started studying CS but got really tired of it, felt like I didn't want to be in there anymore, and when I mentioned it to my parents just like a possibility (not that I immediately wanted to leave the degree), they talked me into leaving because they said I'd just hate it more as time went on (I did listen to them, but again, it was my fault for doing it at the end of the day).I started studying business administration, and even though it is far easier and I'm not as stressed, my mind is constantly reminding me that I'm surrounded by frat boys who are total retards and that I'm not getting a job as easily as I would have in CS, my future is not looking as bright, and I'm aware of it.The thing is that I like to program, and I do it in my free time. I've even worked for a few small businesses as a freelancer, helping them build programs to automatize their tasks, building dashboards, doing data cleaning, and a bunch of other things, but again, no STEM degree.I thought about trying to get back in the field by doing a master's degree in Data Science but I'm afraid that I will not get accepted anywhere because I don't have a STEM degree. What can I do?
>>34035466Do business administration. Computers are for fags.

Do strip clubs live up to the hype?
They’re fun to hang out with but I don’t like the atmosphere. A stripper needed a ride after work, she wanted to visit a cemetery on the way, we took some pictures, then I dropped her off and she gave me a kiss on the cheek. Hope she’s doing well.They also have a mysterious way to get things. During the solar eclipse way back all the industrial-grade sunglasses were sold out everywhere. A stripper I knew went to work and came back in the morning with a pair and we could enjoy seeing the eclipse.I wouldn’t go.
>>34034126If you understand them for what they are its fine. Its a place of business - you give a woman money and in exchange she'll pretend to like you and let you feel her tits. Then you go home. That's about it. If you're expecting something other than this experience you'll be sorely disappointed.
>>34034126No. Strip clubs are best experienced with a group of friends, while drunk, and mostly as a "fun sex" thing. If you go there expecting a genuinly erotic experience, then its pathetic.
>>34034126They are fun but a massive money sinkI go every couple months to have some hot chick rub her ass on my dickI would say only 2 of the strippers I got a dance from were actually hot as fuckThe others were meh
>>34034126I want to jizz on all those asses.
I’m 24 and have never asked a girl out or been on a date. I’ve literally only had my first kiss because some people started a spin the bottle game at a party I was at in college. Is it over for me? Have I missed out on key social development and now I’m cursed to be an emotionally stunted chud forever?
>>34036224I'm going to be a wizard this coming year. It'll just pass like every other milestone. I suppose that one's more of a millstone, really.Ask girls out while you're not too far behind.Don't be like me. I've given everyone else my age a 10+ year life experience head start, even after the romantic head start. Jesus wept.Even the fat slightly dim weirdos in high school whose breath smelled a bit like poo now get to have their smiling faces pasted onto my Facebook feed, having married their improbably normal-looking wives years ago now.I certainly wouldn't mind a game being the reason for my first kiss. I once played a game of spin the bottle at a friend's flat (I fancied her, but never made a move) where we had to come up with a new rule for the drinking game every time the bottle landed on us.I came up with the rule "I win", completely missing the point of everything. Don't really understand why the game actually stopped. Possibly the one time where confidence (accidentally) made me look like I didn't really care.I may be too far gone, but you're probably not. I'm okay with not having a girlfriend yet, but by now I'm way too old to not even have experience of a date.I will probably look pathetic to any girl I might try to go out with, and that's aside from the fact I can't even get a job, which is another nice nail in my coffin.But, of course, I can't let myself become jaded or unhappy with my lot, or it will definitely never happen - so I just scream inside and really try to not let it affect me outwardly in any way at all.Everything is okay.

>>34036224>Is it over for me?At 24? No, but that window is closing fast. It only gets harder from here fren.
>>34036435Not him but when is it unironically just over?
>>34036471NTA but I spent a lot of time on here telling like 19-20 year olds to not buy hookers they're wasting their lives and chasing an addiction, but by 40 if you've never been on a single date yet you may as well start getting into hookers instead.
>>34036224i got my first girlfriend when i was 25 but i asked out like only one girl prior to that as i recall. then again i grew up in america and american girl generally are not worth dating or talking to, actually my first girlfriend i got overseas.
>My 24f gf moved in with me a couple weeks ago>On sunday I came home a little early and went to check on her>she seemed fine in the morning but now she was coughing so she asked me to give her a mask, but she wouldn't open the bedroom door more than a crack "I'm really sick and I don't want to get you sick too">It looked like either her sleeve was rolled up or she was wearing a tshirt>can you go the store and get some tylenol for my pain>you should probably see the doctor>no I just wanna rest right now, I should feel better in the morning>okay I'll be back in half an hour>Love you babe (???? she never says this)>Before I leave for the pharmacy I notice these like heavy duty shoes shoved in the corner that are way too big for her and definitely not her style>the shoes are gone by the time I come back with the medicineComment too long.

Respectfully what are you even talking about lol?

So, did OP ever follow up on this or was it a made up pasta to post on reddit?
>>34033760what do you think it is lol
Wasn't sure if this should go on here or on /lit/. /lit/ seems to be for discussing pre-existing rather than making your own. Either way try to go easy on me but also be honest. I never even finished high school because I'm that retarded. Be honest as in "you could do this this and this better" and not "you're fucking worthless and should never write anything ever again.The story I'm trying to write is sort of a sitcom cartoon sort of thing. Taking inspiration from various sources like South Park, Eddsworld, Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, The Boondocks, etc. It's about three guys Richard, Julio, and Jarius who are roommates out of necessity but don't really like each other. As for the character themselves:Richard is a fat asshole. He usually instigates the plot of every episode. He's pretty much the worst a person can be without being actually evil. He's gross, greedy, always wants to force others to think like him, discriminates every group of people besides his own, etc. He does have certain limits though. When he realizes he has gone too far even for his standards he tries to make up for it, though he goes back to being an asshole after. Julio is sort of the innocent dumb one of the group. Richard forcefully drags him to weird situations. Julio thinks of Richard as a friend but Richard is just manipulating him and doesn't give a shit about him. My plan is to eventually though have Julio stand up to Richard to make Richard feel helpless when he can't control Julio anymore. Jarius is the most intelligent and the moral center of the show. He hates Richard but lives with him because money is tough. He follows Richard around just to keep an eye on him and try to stop him from causing chaos. Jarius and Richard fight regularly both physically and verbally, Richard usually losing the physical fights because he's an out of shape fat fuck. Jarius is jaded and cynical but tries to do the right thing when he can.
>>34020019There's definitely potential but as they currently are your characters sound a little too basic and surface level. They definitely need more depth.
>>34020019Hey if shit like Sausage Party and Fanboy & Chum Chum got greenlit at some point I honestly don't see why this story couldn't work. Even if it's not the best thing ever it certainly can't be worse than those abominations. At the very least it sounds like the rivalries between the characters could be a good thing.
>>34035956I mean I don't disagree but do you REALLY want your work to be compared to Sausage Party or Fanboy & Chum Chum? Like is the bar you're setting for yourself really THAT low?
>>34036096unpopular opinion i know but sausage party and fanboy & chum chum are not that bad. they're really stupid i agree 100% but they're funny exactly because they're stupid. they are stupid and bad and they're aware of it. they're not supposed to be taken serious
I'm down for it. We need more edgy cartoons these days anyway.
I'm 100% about to come up on a huge wad of cash and assets (legally) in the immediate future. I long since gave up on getting, "successful at life." I've got very modest ambitions now. I own my own home and such; if I sold it all now in addition to what I have I could basically move anywhere I wanted.Pretty much all I want to do is engage in nerdy hobbies and vidya until I die because I eventually realized that was what I was good at and makes me happy. Don't look down on me or pity me; I'm not afraid to embrace what gets me out of bed every day.What's the smartest way I can set myself up indefinitely so I never have to work again? Anyone else who had something similar happen and made this decision, what pitfalls should I avoid to keep from losing it all? Any lifestyle points?
>>34034548I am feeling jealous of your inheritance and I am currently severely judging your life and your character in my own head to make me feel better about the fact that I am broke and if I had that money I would not waste it on consuming I would use it to secure the health and wellbeing to those I love. I am currently telling myself that the money is wasted on you, and I feel bitter that such good fortune does not happen for those who I think deserve it. With all that being said though OP, I think regardless of the money you should not resign yourself to never working ever again. That will kill you inside, and if you truly want to enjoy the wealth you just got, you should not let your soul either away in idleness. Because if you do, that fortune won't help you. If you want to make the most of it, be sure to aspire for things bigger than nerdy hobbies and videogames. I am not saying give up those things, but don't settle for just those and only those. Expand on it, add more things on top of it. Despite my envy I do not wish you ill will, I hope you do find a way to have an optimal life.
>>34034548>Pretty much all I want to do is engage in nerdy hobbies and vidya until I die because I eventually realized that was what I was good at and makes me happy. Don't look down on me or pity me; I'm not afraid to embrace what gets me out of bed every day.I think this is highly relatable for a lot of people. Chasing social status is rough. It's years of work, it's not necessarily satisfying, and it can be lost in an instant.>What's the smartest way I can set myself up indefinitely so I never have to work again? Anyone else who had something similar happen and made this decision, what pitfalls should I avoid to keep from losing it all? Any lifestyle points?I would read Boglehead's Guide (or ask AI to summarize). It explains everything.But basically, you'd invest in a balanced portfolio of index funds and bonds. You'd safely withdraw like 3-4% a year and adjust up/down based on market performance.
>>34035870Well, I do have a plan to set things up. I do have children who I've always supported. So that's another challenge. But I already have some answers to that.I don't have anyone else I love. Basically because of my mom and dad and a bunch of other stupid shit that happened before I was even old enough to drive that I had nothing to do with but just concerned me I've always been resented by my extended family.Everybody always talks about, "traditional family values," being dead. Well I believe in them but it's no fun when you realize one day it's a Boomer Bastardization of them that pretty much doomed you to exile and alienation. I digress.I have many plans creatively and in terms of travel that are most certainly getting done, even a few causes I wanna throw money at. But I just want to make sure I'm taken care of in perpetuity and by extension my kids are. The good news is, when I did work, they learned a lot of good things for me. It is a long and bullshit story that got me where I am - people say this a lot but I didn't do shit wrong. Or, what I did do wrong, I had no way to know would end here. Turns out you can't just unfuck your life in your mid-20s and everyone who tells you they are is just trying to get you to buy a book.
>>34035877>Chasing social status is rough. It's years of work, it's not necessarily satisfying, and it can be lost in an instant100%. Especially if you're a straight, White man in Current Year USA. If you don't have a good family behind you, you're fighting an uphill battle constantly and everyone knows it. Now they're just acting like we deserve it instead of denying it.In my own case, for a serial fuck-up who really had no reason to be one that finally got it together by 25; even before that I had a life most dudes just lie to you about having. I did really well for the last five years; did things lots of people with my past don't achieve. I was shaping up to be a fucking miracle story. But there were tons of other things in my background I didn't take into account.>past decisions I had no idea would handicap me>people in my personal life screwing me over>business opportunities that fell through from no fault of my ownAll culminating in me being here, right now.
>>34034548You could hold shares in companies that are secure - not to speculate on their price, but to receive the dividends given to shareholders. Similarly, you could just have enough money in savings to live off the interest from the bank.In the UK, if you get yourself 100k or more in premium bonds then the prize rate, in theory, pays out (when averaged over a year or more) about the same as your average savings account, but with the chance of winning a lot more on occasion if you're very lucky.Buy a spray bottle and fill it with the liquid that tax men are allergic to.
how do you get over the fear of sex? I’ve had the opportunity many times but avoided it out of anxiety and fear. I’m male and mid 20s
>>34036203depends on what about sex do you fear? is it the sex itself, or the expectations or pressures surrounding it? fear of fucking it up? fear of being seen as ugly? fear of stds? what fear are we talking about?Once you find out what that is, you simply understand fears are learned. No one fears something for no reason. Fear comes from past experience. And also fear doesnt have to be directly related to the subject you fear, it can be laterally indirectly related. Example: You fucked up trying to perform well in school and got shit for it so bad you shrunk into your own mind and felt like a huge fuck up. So sex comes knocking one day and you fear you will fuck it up etc.You unlearn fear by learning how the fear came to be, understanding how it ticks and how fear operates. This knowledge renders the fear obsolete once found.
I was quite drunk my first time having sex. I had some sexual experiences with other girls before but it was almost always that they were more sexually experienced/confident than I was so they had to take most of the initiatives and even the few times I got my dick sucked and whatever else I just could not cum out of nerves.The girl I slept with didn't know that I was a virgin, equal parts sexual confidence I gained from the other girls but also the bit of liquid courage needed to calm my nerves and also an easy way to break the ice at a bar.IF I had to do it all again differently in current year it would be more a netflix & chill type of situation
When I first had my son I was hoping he'd be the opposite of me in every way. I was always a very shy unathletic nerd who got bullied daily (both verbally and physically) by my stronger more assertive peers and because of that I'm now an adult with really severe depression as well as massive anxiety and distrust of people. I was hoping my son would be the opposite of me. I was hoping he'd be the one DOING the bullying if anything. But he's now in the second grade after having completed first grade and kindergarten and unfortunately he's a carbon copy of me. At first we thought it was just his kindergarten class but then the same thing happened in first and second grade and transferring schools didn't work either because he was bullied in the new school as well. Whenever I tried bringing it up to the teachers they basically didn't give a shit and just used the boys will be boys excuse. Even when he had several bruises and shit. I tried to get my son more into sports but he prefers drawing and writing stories. I tried to tell him that when bullies attack him fight back I don't care if he gets in trouble for standing up for himself but he just doesn't have it in him and lets them beat him up. I also tried contacting the parents of the bullies but the parents are also bullies themselves.So far my son is EXACTLY the way I was when I was his age. It's like I'm a father to my younger self. And I worry he'll end up just like me, depressed, full of anxiety, and very distrusting of people. My wife has no idea what to do either because as a girl growing up no one bullied her. So I'm at a loss here. Practically the only difference between my son and me at his age is he's slightly smarter and doesn't make as many stupid mistakes.
>>34035938Nobody mentioned it because it's irrelevant. Women/Mothers will always oppose their bully victim son do anything about problems. Mothers will always prevent their sons from fighting back. They are useless when it comes to things like fighting back, these are things only fathers and sons understand.And right now OP behaves more like a mom than a dad.
>>34035938What the fuck did I just read?
>>34029117uhh I don't think empirical evidence supports this bro
>>34021436He already is one. That's why his son gets bullied and no one gives a shit about his family. Tbh desu it probably won't work though.
>>34035938bro wtf. even as a horny teen i never once thought about how attractive or unattractive my mom looked like
I’m planning on breaking up with my boyfriend in the next couple days. The reason being a lack of general satisfaction with our interactions and conversations.He loves me very much and is a very good person. I love him like family but I’ve realized I don’t want to spend my life with him. I don’t want to hurt him, how can I do this in the least painful way for him?
>>34030382It's very important to understand that you *will* hurt him, and that pretty much anything you try to do to minimise that will make things worse. There's no such thing as "letting someone down gently". It's worth making sure that you don't give him any false hope that you might get back together, so he can start the process of moving on as soon as possible. And (assuming it's true) you can reassure him that he hasn't done anything wrong and that there wasn't anything he could have done differently. (If you don't do that he may cling on to the hope that he can talk you round by saying "I can change").Anything else you try will make things worse. In particular, do not try and stretch out the process of leaving over days or weeks. A clean break is a sudden, horrible shock, but a prolonged sense that things are going wrong and you can't seem to stop it is far worse. Just leave and get it over with.
>>34030382>The reason being a lack of general satisfaction with our interactions and conversations.Have you told him about that?
>>34033971Even worse because you act like a bitch when you're not one.

The reason why I’m not financially successful is because I don’t have a wife and kid that make me want to work hard. And the reason I don’t have a wife and kid is because I’m not financially successful. It’s a Catch-22.
>>34035624>You’re literally just blaming me tho.You are blaming yourself as well, but you're clearly too retarded or autistic to see it.
>>34034340Me too. It’s not bad, to be honest. I wouldn’t mind having a wife and child, but I can have fun and enjoy life before that time.
>>34034579Thinking I had a chance with the prettiest girl I knew got me passing grades in high school. I worked hard for those average results just so she wouldn't look down on me (she was a clever clogs).I should just imagine a girl to impress.

I'm 31 years old, haven't been employed in 8 years. I'm ugly, live with my parents, have no college diploma and no way to excel in life. I have severe social anxiety and am a very nervous person.
