Hope you are comfy
I am highly jealous of anyone who's good at cooking for themselves.
>>51038124When are you going to kill yourself?
I'll always be a disappointment to everyone. I hate being a shut-in. The world is simply a boring place when I turn off my computer or phone.I tried so hard to socialize in the past, but it never worked. After all the bad experiences I had, I only isolated myself more and more.My mom is always worried that I'm going to kill myself. She always indirectly asks me if I'm really happy, and sometimes she even cries when talking to me. It's clear that I have no real purpose.I'm so autistic that a waiter once asked if I was a foreigner because of the way I spoke. I also remember how back in high school all my teachers either treated me like a child or looked at me with disgust.I don't know why I'm living at this point. The only things that keep me alive are the internet (which unfortunately may have contributed to my isolation) and 2D otaku stuff. I often think about all the anime I haven't watched yet, all the visual novels I haven't played, and all the experiences I haven't had in general.I would also really like to visit Japan someday. It's my ultimate dream. Japan honestly seems like a utopia for someone as socially awkward as me despite everything.
>>51038125Probably can't be bothered unless chronic pain or homelessness kicks in.>>51038132>utopia for someone socially awkwardThe world is a shit and people will have the same condescending mob mentality wherever you live in it.
had a mental breakdown and messed up my sleep schedule. back to vampire hours.
It seems everyone eventually ends up abandoning me without explanation. I feel like I’m just a toy for their amusement, to be cast aside as soon as they grow bored of me. People tell you to find community, that people in the same demographic as you (i.e. autistic) will treat you better but like half the people that treat me like this are already autistic. I’m a monster even among monsters. Fraternity is always an ideal people strive for, not something that actually already exists in the real world. People will respond to questions and comments from me but they almost never try to actively seek me out.
>>51042077Your probably just ugly, even ugly people dont like being near uglies, have you considered losing weight or getting plastic surgery?
>>51042092>>51038125lol what's up with this tourist? he's trying too hard. this is the neet thread, we're not meant to try hard here....>>51042077You can't be resentful, people are generally scared of commitment or just move on. It's tempting to think they're doing it out of malice, but you can't think that way. What are your hobbies, anon? And I mean hobbies where you create, not consume.
>>51042077>like half the people that treat me like this are already autisticI'm hella autistic and find being by myself my comfortable default. I do sometimes crave making friends or chatting online with the few I have, but at the same time interacting with others can be challenging and uses a lot of energy. I can get clingy for a bit before going back to keeping to myself. I'm very good at keeping myself entertained, so I tend to slip back into my default of being alone unless the other person is actively pushing for interaction. This (unfairly) puts the burden of initiating interaction on the other person, and probably comes off as me being disinterested. But mostly I'm just immersed 24/7 in my own daydreams and hobbies to the point I don't realize time passing by without contact. At the same time, I have the contradictory habit of thinking "well if someone wants to talk to me, they'll seek me out. If they don't then they're not in the mood or they're busy."So this could the kind of mindset some people you deal with have.
reverse tolerance is a bitch
I don't even want to be a NEET. I am actively looking for work and I'm debating whether or not I want to get a CDL-A for trucking or to head back to college for data analytics. Why am I a NEET? Because I live in the back of a RURAL community and I don't have a car. I need a car to get to jobs. I need a job to get a car.fml
>>51043228>Data analyticsTrucking seems more fun to me than that meme career, me thinks
Neet threads are rarely happy threads :(
>>51038124Trial and error. I make myself filling staples because they're cheap and nutritious. Doesn't even have to be complex, just dozen or so bulk pantry staples and a decently equipped spice rack.
Playing bo2 and drinking energy kinda nightIm falling behind more and more in my studies, I am dissapointed in myselfI tell myself the lie that it was all just a ruse to stay a neet and get some money, and that it was the plan all along, but in truth some part of me wanted to suceed at becoming somethingBut I really dont have the motivation to study or even show up most days, so can I really claim I want to become something when I cant put in a bare minimum of an effort?I became the outsider again aswell, but that was to be expected according to my behaviourIn the end I do enjoy being a Neet even if it makes me feel like a failure sometimesAnd trust me, back when I was a construction worker I did not feel like any less of a loserA job wont fullfill youOr atleast it wont fullfill me that easily
>>51043732Play WaW instead.
>>51042135>What are your hobbies, anon? And I mean hobbies where you create, not consume.I often draw, occasionally cast metal trinkets, I’ve been thinking of getting into writing small things as well. I’ve tried making rpgmaker stuff before but usually end up losing focus. I actually don’t watch anime that much or play too many video games. Every month or two I’ll binge something over the course of a few days. I actually spend more time researching non fiction stuff. My attention span works in strange ways, partly due to melancholy and autistic hyperfixation.>>51042092I mostly interact with people through the internet and never send them pictures of my face.
Today is a good day to do nothing and not matter.
Everything hurts.
Some posts I saw earlier about people graduating from high school made me realize that it's been four years since I graduated. What exactly have I accomplished since then? If anything I feel like I've regressed, and been regressing since middle school.>>51049224real
dabbling into /x/ stuff made neet life a lot more interesting, EMPHASIS on dabbling, don't go full retard on this stuff>>51049224unironically exercise, most of my pain (especially the back) went off after I started exercising and I can sleep a lot better too
>>51050508It's too hot outside. Last summer I didn't go out for three months until this stupid piece of shit season ended.That is admirable if Anon can keep on exercising in such weather.
>>51050598Stationary bikes are a good investment for those who are able. I have a pretty basic one I got on amazon for around $300. Don't have to go outside, can just exercise in the comfort of the air conditioning regardless of weather. Easy to just cycle while watching videos.

I wish I lived alone
>>51051818I wish I lived with a cute /jp/sie
>>51038089I spent 8 years as a neet, I'm 29 now, had my birthday the other day.You have no idea how much I have ruined my life and if you are a NEET just escape out of it, because one day you are gonna snap out and realize how big the hole that you dug yourself in is. This is hell, I am almost 30 years old without a job, money, life experiences, friends (I spent my entire 20s alone talking with anonymous retards on the internet building zero friendships, even the discord ppl have friends), anything. I am a literal manchild loser consuming anime loser garbage all day because I have nothing else and I still can't land a jobThis is hell, I fucked up so fucking bad it's insane I can't even believe this is my life. How do I even make up for this? I can't fucking turn back time. You know what's worse? That when you are a manchild surrounded by anime communities you get emotionally stunt because everyone in them is either a manchild loser, an autist, or a legit teen in school. You end up mentally at 30 the same way you were at 18, you unironically get stuck and believe you are a teen forever or someshit then snap out one day and you're just old as fuckYesterday I saw some guy 28 years old next to marrying and having a business, I live with my mom and don't have a job. Insane the different stages in life, absolutely ruined my life. At least I'm not fat, that's all. Escape this shit while you can.
>>51051818Me tooKurisu would post on /g/ or /sci/ though>>51051071Good luckI feel like I'm wasting my life and I'm depressed.
>>51052734>m-muh job!fuck off
>>51052867Without a job you don't move out of your parents, don't travel, don't get responsibilities like a boss or deadlines, which turn you from a manchild/teen into a functional adultYou don't get access to real adult life and real experiencesYou can't even afford basic hobbies, you just waste your entire life away daydreaming online like a retard

>>51052896This has to be fucking bait. I refuse to believe otherwise.Way too obvious.
>>51038124How can you be a neet and not know how to cook for yourself? I ended up learning on youtube and just shelling out a decent amount of cash for a set of pots/pans and essentials in the kitchen. I've saved a ton over the years
>>51053199I refuse to believe YOU believe otherwise unlesse you are retarded or somethingCome on, tell me how do you move on in life without having a job, tell me how do you fucking afford travelling, tell me how do you afford a fucking hobby that isn't jerking off and talking to other retards online.Spoiler, you can't. You will spend your entire life wasting away your youth daydreaming about doing shit you can't afford like a retard and stil live with your parents while sharing online spaces with manchildren and teenssuch a beautiful life to live, retard.
>>51053515redditspacing
>>51052734I'm technically self employed but I spend most of my time feeling like a NEET. I'm legally an artist and I live off a mixture of welfare in bad months, royalties and grants in good months as long as I keep making art which feels more like a hobby to me, especially because I only spend 2-4 hours a day locking in and working. My annual income sits between genuinely unemployed and burger flipper. It's a pretty low paced life. Do I belong here or not.
i've been learning japanese even though i'm planning to kill myself in december. the one good thing about being a NEET is that you have a lot of free time to do whatever you want, at the cost of everyone thinking you're scum
>>51053462I've lived alone for a couple years now and still can't consistently and without disaster make anything more complicated than a cheese sandwich. Not that I haven't tried. It might simply be retardation.
What's a good go-to for japanese background noise for immersion?

>>51038124I wouldn't call myself good but I have been trying a lot more lately. It helps that I have an aid who buys my groceries so I don't have to do all the laborious shopping, plus she can cook ok if I need her to and knows more than I do. I've been incorporating a lot more green lately and it feels good to make healthy choices.
>>51053700I did try to make lentil soup once before. It ended up being extremely watery. Probably okay for prison food but I couldn't have any of it. It's harder to want to try again when your first attempt was inedible.>>51053722>been incorporating a lot more greenI'd recommend making a plate of salad with just about every meal. Easy enough if you have someone else doing the stocking up. Greek salad with lots of lemon is my favorite.
>>51053130>arent we all wasting our lives?I'm wasting my life in a bad way.I spend all day on this site instead of having fun.
>I spend all day on this sitereminder that wasting your life on 4chan is 10 times worse than wasting it on other websites like Xitter or anything, becauase at least over there you can eventually interact and become friends with someone (I ended up adding people to Discord and bcoming friends and stuff)meanwhile on 4shit you are just talking with random retards, literally zero connections, zero friendships, nothing, You get literally nothing out of this putrid website but throw your life
>>51053759I post on other sites too but i feel really empty anyways. I don't know what's wrong with me.It's impressive how middle 90s to early~middle 2010s japanese internet was completely centered around anonymous textboards.Their hikkis sure were strong.
>>51053742>I did try to make lentil soup once before. It ended up being extremely watery.you do start getting a sense of how much water to put after you keep doing it a few times, helps to write down your experiments somewhere tooif a liter of water for 100g of raw lentils was too much, you lower water or raise lentils and keep experimenting until you get something you likealso, starches bind to water so how dense it gets it's a matter of starch:waterif you cook the lentils the soup might still be watery but if you start crushing them and mixing so the starches can bind to the water, it starts getting thicker

>>51055167Same.I like it that way.
>>51050598Genuinely how do you pull this off? Not going outside even for a day makes my brain feel awful, let alone 3 months.
>>51055484I appreciate the outside as well but the issue is that the summer weather goes up to near 50 degrees here.More detrimentally I am a bit of a retard and I can't go out no matter what unless I wear a big winter jacket.I got stopped and searched by somec cops just today bbecause they thought it was weird.
>>51055508>50 degreesJesus fuck. I'm dying at 30. Anything above 25 is too much.
>>51055508What... That's horrible. How exactly did that happen?
>>51055236WIsh I was content in my solitudeI dont fit in even in discords and whatnot, but still I seek connection and validation
>>51055543It's all rleative really. If you were born somewhere iwher ehwere it's hot you'd also not think much of it. I suppose you live in a cool place though. I am jealous.>>51055644I wasju just getting off the bus and caught the eye of some officers that were sitting on the road. Thankfullny after a couple seconds of talking they realized that I'm simply retarded and not meaning to shoot up the place.
Neet friends me can you tell me how often you jerk offI usually go for 2-3 a day
As an 18 year old searching for a his first job and in his second year of college what are some things you guys wish you would’ve done when you were my age
>>510558863 to 5 times a day
it's too WARM
>>51055886>>51055921Is doing it so frequently normal for guys? Or even just once every day? Do you even get the urge that often, or is it more of a boredom thing?
>>51055886Once a day, on average, though sometimes I can go multiple times and occasionally I've spent weeks not doing it.>>51056018A healthy young adult man doing it every day is perfectly normal. Multiple times a day usually means boredom, chasing dopamine, or something else unusual. Male sex drives tend to peak young and then slowly decline for life, iirc women tend to peak in their 30s curiously enough.For me I do it every day out of a desire to clear my head. Post nut clarity is great because I can jack off and then go straight to locking in to making art. Though it's not necessary to make art. I've done it eight times a day before but that was when I was given a bag of cocaine.
>>51056018It's pretty normal.It's a mix of urge and boredom for me, it depends, but 99% of times it is urge.
melting in the europoor sun rn
>>51056944Just stay at home
>>51053515All the shit in your posts you've mentioned makes it seem like you're letting the world push its values onto yourself. I think you should think about what you're "losing" at in the first place, and see why that frustrates you and what you actually value. All of these things are pretty subjective. A lot of people here can feel fulfilled with the things you see as "manchild" actions or "loser" actions.
>>51055184I'll be also treating myself with some -196 tonight
I want more alcohol.
>>51056018I think it depends, when I was younger I could go multiple times every day, now I'm past 30 and finding something that does it is getting harder. Also I hate getting all sweaty.
I feel like no one would take me seriously when seeking employment because of my retarded genes. I look like a 16 year old despite being in my 20s.

>>51055887I guess I'd say don't fear change and try to be ok with being a little out of your depth. I moved to another city for university but dropped out and moved home after a few months. Dropping out was the right choice but I regret not staying and making a go at a new life in a new place with new people. I like my life as it is rn but I think one of my big regrets in life was not having stayed

>>51059797Anon, do yourself a favor and get a rechargeable portable fan. It's great to carry one around while doing anything at all.
>>51059810You realize there's a thread dedicated to this very topic right here on this board, right?
>>51059810I learned hiragana and katakana from Tofugu website (both of them are quick to learn. If you put your mind to it you can learn each of them in one or a few days.) After that you need to know some basic vocab and kanji, so you can download an Anki deck like Core 2.3k. This is the part that'll take you the longest (like a few months if you are consistent.) But after that you can just start mining your own vocab from anime/visual novels. The key is to spend as much time as possible immersing so your brain gets used to the language. It's hard at first and you may get discouraged but if you just push through the initial stage it'll become a lot easier.
>>51059810Don't do this >>51059867/djt/ has gotten pretty bad, although the OP links are fine.https://learnjapanese.moe/ is pretty good.

4 shots by 9am. What is this life?
>>51062256alcohol and suffering, as life inherently is
>>51062256A comfy one? Enjoy your alcohol.
>>51062401I'm trying to cut back. Since getting laid off my alcohol consumption has skyrocketed. I've been in bed except for cooking, cleaning, and taking my elderly father to doctor's appointments. I was laid off in April and he asked me to stay home with him while he convalesces from a serious illness so of course I did. I used to enjoy this kind of free time but I think I'm mentally better when I'm engaged. Been trying to restructure my life around a routine. I got up and bathed this morning, made breakfast, drank coffee, paid some bills, and have tried to stay out of bed and at my desk until later as my sleep schedule has been fucked. Completely fucked. I only sleep 2-3 hours at a time and half the time can't fall back asleep, which really doesn't help my mental state. Any other anons dealing with irregular sleep patterns to the point of feeling constant fatigue and anxiety during the day?
>>51062428I'm trying but I'm at the point where I know it's destroying my insides.
>>51062449Alcohol surely messes up your sleep. Perhaps try to keep it to once a week.
Going out in this weather is fucking torture.
I switched from ~7g fibre a day to ~130g fibre a day because I'm terrified of bowel cancer from a sedentary life, this is more beans and root vegetables a day than I used to get in a month and I literally cannot stop farting every few seconds my whole flat smells of death but I'm going to endure it I have to
>>51064687>130gWhat the hell anonSurely that's a typo. I see around 30g as the common recommendation.Also if you increase your fiber intake all at once you're going to have a bad time. Best to increase gradually if you're not used to a high fiber diet.
>>51062551It does, indeed. Unfortunately, I think a dead drop from what my daily intake has been to once a week would send me into seizures. I'm tapering down by a little per day so I don't died.
>>51064687Celery is a godsend as it has two kinds of fiber. Carrots actually backed me up. It was painful.
>>51053759Eh, it depends. I've found lasting friends (5 years together now) through engaging in board projects, offsite watch parties (like cytube), multiplayer sessions and such. They're a rarity of course but it's not impossible. Depending on how autistic you are it'll be harder no doubt, specially if you only find already stablished groups that may make you feel alienated and scare you away at first, but if you manage to get in early in something, make it up yourself or simply find something niche enough then it'll be much easier to engage and attempt to connect with others. Same applies with any altchan of your choice since it's actually easier to start up projects there since the communities are tighter. I know it's not for everyone but this is what made online socialization fun for me.

I'm not really sure if my life really counts as being a NEET but I certainly feel like one. I work a remote job where I barely really do anything and still live with my parents and I feel like I'm going to be stuck here for the rest of my life. I bought into the CS major meme back when the going was good and now for the last two years I've barely been able to find any alternative. I'd love to move out and live on my own but I feel like it's incredibly dumb to throw away the safety net I currently have so I just kind of feel stuck. The only good part is 95% of my pay gets saved and 5% of it goes towards whatever dumb NEET shit I want. I also have more than enough time to learn Japanese which is cool but idk if language learning to read VNs and play vidya really counts as a legit hobby.
>>51065362Kill yourself two faced faggot.
>>51065624Two faced? How so?
>>51055508>near 50 degrees here.Those are Death Valley level temperatures. Literally rivals the hottest place on earth. Where I live it once got nearly that hot during a heat wave. I went outside to see how bad it was. Strangely, I found it manageable. I’d be tempted to say that I’m built different and have some kind of superhuman resistance to heat stroke, but the Timbisha tribe managed to live there for millennia. If you drink enough water and the humidity’s not crazy your sweat can handle the job.
>>51065759>be tempted to say that I’m built differentI think you definitely can have tolerance for it. I went out without a coat for the first time in a year today and 40 degrees felt fine. Perhaps it's just that the humidity isn't bad as you said.It sucks no matter what to wake up soaked in sweat, though. Fuck this season.

Just know that no matter how shitty you feel, as long as you don't fuck kids or sell meth I love you and want the warmth to stay in your heart.

What country is a good place to travel to if youre neet
>>51066557>no one wants to be locked in a room foreverDid you just fly in from normalfagtown? You're actually right about the money, at least. If you are the type of NEET that lacks government gibs like me then getting a job or higher education is not a question of "if" but "when". If you do have access to gibs and you aren't planning on killing yourself in less than 5 years you should be safely investing whatever you can so you can afford commodities or even extra expenses in case of an emergency. Money can't buy happiness but it damn well gets you the next best thing.

>>51066347I had a drunken dream about being very annoying here and thought it was real. Thankfully only a little.
Suicide is something I think about pretty much daily, my aunt tried to get me a job at the warehouse but I worked there for 3 years before and it was the worst 3 years of my life, just torture that seemed endless and I eventually quit because of workplace harassment. After that I vowed to never work there in particular. I had to decline the offer because I know I can't handle it + the hours are way too long. My grandmother told me my mother was crying to her wondering "what is he going to do when I'm gone", which is something I already think about all the time every day. Think the family grief stage of NEETdom will start for me. The only thing I'm good at is art related which of course no one cares about and will get me nowhere, I've been looking into remote work desperately trying to find anything but most of it is scams or just ghosting humiliation rituals.Don't really know what to do anymore, my best bet is just find a building tall enough, take a huge hit of an opiate and leap off.Only enjoyable thing in life anymore is escapism and drugs, I was not meant to be on this earth.
>>51065548Sounds comfy, I envy your life
>>51067070 anywhere else
As an ex-hikky, I would like to post some advice. I know how frustrating it is to be told what to do by some random tard on the Internet who doesn't know your situation, so please skip/hide this post if you don't want to read it. I genuinely understand.It's important to realize that NEETdom is a cycle: living such a life deteriorates your physical and mental health, which makes it harder to escape. It is often lost on people that Misaki is supposed to be an unrealistic character. The point Takimoto was trying to make is that you will not magically be saved one day. As hard as it is, nothing will change unless you change yourself.Step 0 is to eliminate the mental jews that keep you trapped. Vidya, porn, and social media (in a broad definition) are the three biggest culprits for most people. Each of these is hyperstimulating, eats up vast amounts of time, and leaves you lethargic. You don't need to immediately fill that time with something productive. I personally would read manga (physical copies specifically) as my brain detoxed. The point here is to restore a natural dopamine response, without which any real attempt at change will shoot itself in the foot. I have never known anyone who significantly changed themselves for the better while keeping these jews in their life.The next crucial step is real exercise. It doesn't need to be weightlifting, although that's personally what I chose to do. Running, hiking, climbing, swimming, biking, rowing, etc. are all valid. Just don't fall for the trap of "getting my steps in" where you just meander around for a bit. This does nothing. It's a cope for unhealthy people to pretend they're less unhealthy. Again, if you don't stop frying your brain with instant gratification this step will be needlessly harder.What also goes neglected in self-improovment circles is reading. Not just manga (which is entertainment) but real literature/non-fiction. I recommend philosophy because it changed my worldview and gave me true purpose in life. However you can read whatever you want so long as you are truly learning and growing as a person. Psychology, history, science, and religion are particularly appropriate. Yet again, being brainrotted will prevent you from truly absorbing what you're reading.Finally, you need to get a job. I understand what it's like to be crippled by work stress, so definitely avoid stressful food service, construction, and warehouse jobs. There are places where you won't be stressed, although the tradeoff is being bored for 8 hours a day. I myself prefer that to the stress, and I imagine most of you do too. Retail stores, grocery stores, security, movie theaters, etc. can be very easy depending where you work. As a rule of thumb, more corporate places typically run tighter ships than smaller businesses. Make sure to please your superiors. It's actually very easy to do: be respectful, diligent, and honest about your mistakes. Being nice and smiling goes a long way to make people like you. Try to keep busy while on the clock; if you work at the right place, there will still be nothing to do! When you make a mistake, don't make excuses, but explain how you will prevent the same mistake from happening in the future. Employers don't care why you make a mistake, just that it won't happen again.

If it comes down to it, and if my big brother never looks for another gf again, maybe he'll take care of me instead.
>>51068209Eat shit.
>>51068209These posts appear often, I dont quite understand the purpose behind themDont you think most of us had jobs before?My employment sucked the life out of me and me sickPeople like you seem to make being a good worker the most important thing to achieve with in life, an idiology that I just dont subscribe to.Who says spending 8 hours working is a better use of time then playing video games for 8 hours?The only good point you make is exercisizing, lifting is goodNeetdom is a cycle that improves your mental and physical health and enables you achieve everything you otherwise never would have the time to achieve.Or you can just rot and do nothing which is really not much worse then polluting your body and mind with the babble of normies and the pollutants of industrial workplaces

>>51068209Vidya and porn are hardly culprits social media tho is the real killer. In my case getting on psychiatric meds for ADHD is the only thing that managed to save me and it'll probably do the same for you; I literally don't even have the urge to doomscroll anymore.
>>51068420I'd say porn rapes your brain as much as social media if not more.

That's on (You).>>51068359>the purpose behind themI doubt anyone will actually take this advice because everyone's heard it so many times before. Ironically, it's repeated often because it's good advice, but the repetition makes it more likely to be ignored.>People like you seem to make being a good worker the most important thing to achieve with in lifeTo clarify, that's not my ideology either.>enables you achieve everything you otherwise never would have the time to achieve.Theoretically, you're able to hone any skill, improve your mind and body, socialize, etc. much more than someone who's working. In practice, most NEETs do fuck all with their time. I know it; you know it.>>51068420>Vidya and porn are hardly culprits social media tho is the real killer.I'm glad you see that social media is terrible. Most don't. I'm still gonna urge you to research the negative effects of vidya and porn, and maybe try abstaining from both for a week or so. You have the free will not to, though.
>>51068534>Keep looking. Defeatism is self-gratifying cope.It's been 3 years, how long do I have to do this? I'm running out of reasons to not kill myself.
>>51068534define porn
>>51068534>vidya and pornI'm going to justify my VNs with the fact that they're mostly reading (and in a language I'm learning, so enrichment!) and I don't play them to coom.
>>51068541As long as it takes. I wouldn't kill myself, but it's your free will, not mine.>>51068549If you're trying a semantic argument, I'm not gonna entertain it. It doesn't matter if I can produce a rhetorically waterproof definition, porn is still harmful.
>>51068614>As long as it takes. I wouldn't kill myself, but it's your free will, not mine.Alright, perhaps I should just get a gun then. I live in a place where guns don't need licenses to own which is nice.
Is it really that fucking hard not to post in the NEET thread when you have a job? Nobody cares.
>>51068726nta but I've been a NEET for three years and have only had a job for two months (longest term of employment). I was a NEET when I started using these threadsvand whenever I post here is to still engage in NEET-related discussion.
>>51068534I cant and wontYou are mid
i try to lurk here because i dont have friends and all of those other lack of going outdoors symptoms from being a hikkiNEET, but its exhausting to constantly read about jobs, going outside, being social and whatever. its expected outside of these threads, constantly. but confusing why people who should be happy to have moved on or never dealt with it come here. dont you have better places to be?
>>51069138humans like to go to the zoo sometimes
I think we can talk about going outside and stuffJust not jobs
>>51069463yeah, sometimes i like to walk into retail stores and people watch, normalfags are like baboons
>>51067506I hope you figure it out
>>51069463That's fine, but interacting with the animals is another thing. "Hurr durr I haev job and here's my gay unwanted advice in your not having a job thread!!"
>>51068532buy onaholes
Wish I could buy an onahole but without my own place it's just not happening
>>51070985Does your family check your packages? I've ordered toys occasionally. I already get stuff from Amazon sometimes so it was just another box.
>>51071002Everyone knows the moment you use it, between the smell of the rubber and the hyper-sonic sound it makes every second it touches you.Honestly even if you have your own place there's a chance you can be heard through the walls.
>>51071051Ooh, right. Fair point.
>>51071002>>51071051nta but also you have to clean it. Depending on everyone's schedule and how the house is laid out, you probably won't be able to sneak it to the bathroom with dish soap and everything to get the cum/lube out before there's a problem.I have two that I used to use but stopped just because I preferred my hand, they 100% noticed me try to get them up and back downstairs eventually with how often I did it and how germaphobic I am.
>>51071109>Dohna Dohna onasWhoa awesome, I didn't know these existed.Is it really possible for just your hand to be better though? I don't have a dick to use them, but onaholes look like they must feel amazing as far as I can imagine at least. Does seem like they'd be a pain to clean out though so I could see that being a reason to just go with hand instead.
I keep getting asking what my real life profession is in casual MMO encounters, when did this stop being rude? I just answer with my character's class but some people don't take a hint and keep asking.I know it's naïve to idolize all aspects of japanese culture but I really think being terrified of offending someone is objectively the best societal structure.
>>51071141>I don't have a dick to use them,Never thought I'd say this but I sure hope you're a foid...
>>51071151One option could be to just give something vague like office job or remote work if you just want someone off your back, especially if it's just a casual encounter. If they ask for details just say you don't want to get into work/IRL stuff. After all, you're here to relax with a game.
>>51071151>I know it's naïve to idolize all aspects of japanese culture but I really think being terrified of offending someone is objectively the best societal structure.Objectively wrong, quit being a pansy fucking own it. If you still find it insulting or soul-crushing then do something to change it. Telling people you don't like to go fuck themselves is the greatest pleasure of being a grown man, unless you're in Japan it shouldn't be one you want to relinquish or revoke from others.
>>51071141Eunuchbros... it's over

Stay in your containment thread, /ona/fags.
>>51072891There are a lot of fags here that need to stay in their respective threads. A lot of job, real-life faggotry, buyfaggotry discussions going on. Everything except the one actual thing the thread is supposed to be about.
>>51072891Yeah, those darn rascals, disturbing our three posts a day about... uhhhhh.... the weather being warm or something
>>51066558>join me in the suffering i have come to accept because its heckin normalno
>>51073015This but unironically
>>51072770I mean shit, I've only used mine a handful of times each and they're in perfect condition, if you want 'em I've been sitting on them for a year by this point unused (which was a year after I bought them)keeping the boxes thoughAnyway, really my main thing is I like to edge and go slow and type/french my pillow a lot so having a super-stimuilating thing where I lose a lot of tight control that also covers my hand in lube is a little out of my comfort zonealso it feels weird to cum and basically lock up and not be able to stroke at 90 miles an hour, the one time I strapped it to my desk and fucked it while looking at loli porn was fun though (though again I locked up while cumming 'cause I'm not used to that)
>>51073447>do you want my toys that I only had my dick in a few times
>>51073552You forget where you are?
>Neet threadhi i'm a neet
>>51072935Yeah, but real life faggotry and buyfag shit are comfy topics. You can't really have a NEET thread without them since our hobbies and soulcrushing depression are part and parcel of being a long term NEET... I don't wanna hear a bunch of dudes talking about where they put their poles. Those threads border on fetish exhibitionism and that ropes everyone into their bullshit whether willing or not.
>>51073447The Dohnas are very stimulating and I get that lock up too, much more so then other onasConsider trying a cup like durex ona, I got it from a drug store here feels really good and I dont get lock upAlso if you dont mind ruining one, try cutting the top off, I did that to my medico when i knew i had to toss it anyways, it felt way better when cumming, I miss the feeling Tempting offer, but ill have to drcline your used onas especially since i feel like the dohna onas rot easily, if you havent checked on them and they had a bit of moisture still inside they might be long gone anyways
>>51073668Oh, alright! Just checked on them before I sent my last message, they're identical to how they were a year ago best I can tell. But also I've barely used them so that isn't surprising. Anyway, I didn't know the hyperstim/lock up thing was specific to them. They're the only onas I've ever fucked so I thought that's just how it was with me. I do really like them, just not enough to justify the hastle ('cause like I said in my original post, I have to sneak them upstairs to clean them). Bought Kikuchiyo first 'cause it was my first ona and I just wanted to fuck the tightest one there was (because of the aformentioned lolicon fixation, didn't buy Porno 'cause the texture looked weird. Medico's looks great though! Alyce's looks fun but also looks like a bitch to clean properly so it'd probably go fast). Went as you'd expect because the texture is super simple, I might cut that one up if either of them. Kira's was my favorite of the two, not gonna cut that 'cause the suction and the texture is great.Honestly might use them soon 'cause I haven't thought about what I liked about them in a while. Were expensive as fuck though, only place I trusted with my card charged the hell out of shipping and both plus the lube and warmer I rarely used were like 100 bucks. There was some nice jk pussy spray I liked a lot though.
>>51073590Hi! You are cute!
>>51073636> You can't really have a NEET thread without them since our hobbies and soulcrushing depression are part and parcel of being a long term NEET... I don't wanna hear a bunch of dudes talking about where they put their poles. But like you just said, porn and dopamine addiction and how we satisfy that is a big part of NEET depression.
this is the sequel to my previous post from the year 2008still a neet
I've wasted 8 years doing literally nothing Didn't learn a new languageDidn't read or watch much of anything except random bullshit on the InternetDidn't talk to anyone who I wasn't related to or gave money in any kind of wayI just played the same ~5 games on my laptop and told retards to kys on 4chan
>>51073889sounds like time well spent to me
>>51073889Doing anything else would also be a waste of time. If not an even bigger one.As long as you're enjoying yourself the time has nit been wasted.
It was rly fkn hot today - 38 Celsius here. I used an air fan + tied an ice-frozen bottle to it, which usually works like a charm, but those temps were too extreme, so I finally purchased an AC. I'm curing my hangover with ice-cold, honey-flavored Arizona green tea. I also cooked a solid pot of authentic Japanese curry. I recommend it to everyone here who is trying to learn how to cook. It's super easy to make; all you need is curry roux. Gonna wreck my onahola now to some feet CGIs and read Higurashi after that.>>51071051Not necessarily. I usually use it when taking a shower—the water drops obscure your plapping. It's all a matter of not getting paranoid and adapting to the other housemates' schedules.
I hurt a /jp/sie really badly 6 years ago and I still think about them daily, sometimes even have dreams about them, even though we haven't spoken since 2020.
>>51074033You're gonna carry that weight.
My mom thinks I'm going to kill myself and I'm so fucking tired. Wtf do I do? Her mind can't understand that a shut-in with no friends can be ""happy"" and not want to commit suicide. What the actual fuck do I do... It makes me sad and angry at the same time, she wants to force me to see a therapist but she can't because well, I'm not a minor.
Around 50% of the food I eat is burgers>>51074000France is still that hot?Supposedly here heatwave is over now I hope>Gonna wreck my onahola now to some feet CGIs and read Higurashi after that.So basedIm on chapter 2 now
I need to take a shower right now, I need it, I haven't showered in 3 months and right now my skin is too sicky and smells weird, I'm gonna do it, I'm scared but I'll do it, I just have to believe in myself.I also need to brush my teeth but that's a different demon I'll fight later, shower comes first.
what do /jp/sies smell like
>>51074140Smell me and tell me
>>51074150You smell!
>>51074073Little bit to the East, I'm Slavic. Man fuck those heatwaves.You're sweating like a slut in a church no matter what you do. The only upside is you can suck on some sweaty toes, desu>Im on chapter 2 nowIt's a destiny then - I'm also during ,,Ch.2 Watanagashi"
>>51074140Personally, I smell like cheapest lager mixed with some lower-shelf deodorant.Unlike those vampire cunnies which smell like roses under the moon I bet. Snifffffff
>>51074153I don't want to smell ;_;
>>51074070When I was newting with my rents I just accepted seeing a therapist regularly as a cost of being there. Didn't really find out anything interesting but eh. Taking an hour out of every week was an acceptable price to pay.
>>51062088I'm phone posting, sorry I'm lazy
>>51074158Rena feet
Some shitskin ran over my foot with the monster baby troller today They ruin the comfy vibe everywhere
Slept over a dozen hours, stood up for three and just slept another 17. I love sleeping so much.
>>51074217I just really dislike being forced to talk to someone
>>51074616I usually get very fixated on something and dont sleep and then sleep for a long timeI love sleeping when I dreamDreams are often more interesting thrn media
>>51073761There's a difference when you start talking coomer goonshit. Have some decorum.
>>51074722>I usually get very fixated on something and dont sleepIt's very nice when this happens but it's become so rare to find anything interesting enough to spend 20 hours straight indulging in nowadays. I'm jealous of people that can play game after game or watch show after show without being picky and somehow stay entertained.>Dreams are often more interesting thrn mediaSure, but it's media that makes dreams interesting. A lot of mine are just a mash-up of games and whatever else I've consumed. They'd probably be a lot more dull otherwise.
>>51074512Imagine she's dipping those sweaty feet right into your ramen bowl or even better your mouth. I'd pour beer on her thighs so it'd go straight into my mouth.
>>51074140My hair often smells like a wet dog’s fur.
>>51074616I wish sleeping wasn't a necessity. 16 hours of active time just doesn't feel like enough sometimes.And the so called "normal" people cut another 8 off that. Ridiculous.
>>51074900>it's become so rare to find anything interesting enough to spend 20 hours straight indulging in nowadays. I'm jealous of people that can play game after game or watch show after show without being picky and somehow stay entertainedI'm gradually getting over my mental blocks against watching/reading/playing new things that make me genuinely happy and fulfilled but be happy that you don't pour hundreds of hours into Zomboid every month.Which is a very good game that I do that with because it's fun and very unique but I could have finished a whole Persona game or finally played Disgea in that time.
>>51075267A nice complaint to have. Having enough things you like doing for sleep to be a nuisance is enviable.>>51076129>be happy that you don't pour hundreds of hours into Zomboid every month.I'd love to. Most of my playtime also comes from playing the same stuff over and over. Issue is that I've gotten as good as I want to with every game that I have interest in, and since playing without a goal isn't too sustainable I've just not been playing much at all. Which results in not doing a lot in general.I guess the natural progresion is to start being productive instead of consuming but I haven't gotten around to that yet.>but I could have finished a whole Persona game or finally played DisgeaI think it's completely fine as long as you're still having fun with whatever you're fixated on. Not like any of that other stuff is going anywhere, and it's kind of an oddly comforting feeling to know you have a backlog of stuff you could touch on whenever you want. Remember the mantra of time spent enjoying not being wasted.
>>51074616why is sister rumia cropping up more often and why does it make me need to make her a little sister so much...
>>51076163>I guess the natural progresion is to start being productive instead of consuming but I haven't gotten around to that yet.What does it mean 'to be productive' in a world where TikTok influencers make millions compared to blue-collar workers, who are the foundation of society?
>>51076228I was thinking more so just the act of creating stuff for your own entertainment when I used the word. Drawing, video-making, etcetera. Not necessarily anything for the pursue of a j*b."Being productive" probably does simply mean to slave away and ruin yourself for most, though.
>>51076228blue-collar workers are the ones who are watching said TikTok influencers, the everyman loves slop more than you'd like to imagine
>>51076245So "expressing yourself" is the correct term here imho.I sympathize with your view, an unexpressed soul causes a lot of internal pain.
>>51076429Been there, saw that so I believe you but avoid generalizing. There are some unique gems in the sea of trash.I've met a few individuals with quite rare interests / hobbies like collecting old games from psx era, sculpting and my favourite one - land my favourite one — lepidopterology.
>>51055670Wtf is discord, i usually only lurk, but over the last weeks i joined several servers for the first time to try and find similar minded individuals, and it's very weird. Depending on how large the server is: You're either thrown in an empty room where everything you say will go into the void, moderately large feels like you're in some sort of highschool groupchat, only way you're not getting ignoried is if you're already part of the clique, same handful of people dominating conversation in general chat while the rest lurks, or large ones with mainly shitposting or memetalking that keeps the server running. So it's like real life, only with hip kids running the show, and everywhere nobody talks about what the server is actually about.One niche server i joined for example was bizarre, hoping for interesting conversations about the topic, when the only 2 people active there were the mod and a dude spam the one active thread by flirting with each other. So from what i've seen until now i think i'm ready to leave discord behind, this is too exhausting.

>>51077544
>>51077011Online friends are not a memeYou know what is a meme? Spending your days on 4chan talking with anonymous people, talking with shadows, investing your time mingling with people you have no way to make an actual connection with. Who are you talking to? who are these people you spend so much time with? You are literally wasting your time here unless you find a way to connect with them through an outside channel. You are throwing your precious and unique life time, just like I did, talking with shadows. 4chan and anonymous websites in general just give you this constant feeling that you're socializing a lot, but it's all fake, it's all empty. Close this thread and you have no connection with anyone, you have NOTHING. All the time invested arguing with unknown people you don't know and you will never see again. You are literally talking to a void. Meanwhile, if you were at least throwing your time on other kind of social media like Xitter or Facebook you could eventually land someone to talk to more closely, like a friendship, a real connection. You have NOTHING here. It's consuming your life just as it consumed and ruined mine for years and it took me years to realize how much this fake feeling was doing anything but actually isolating me from real people I could make a connection with
>>51077633
>>51077011>>51076706Discord is fantastic for doing things with people you already know/met through forums, Steam, or 4chan or something, it's how I met the guys who've been my best and pretty much only friends since I was in high school (barring a girl who was dating a guy who went to the same school as me, but she went to a different school -- we talk purely through Discord and I've only met her in person twice. The other guys are all states away of course). Every time I joined the Discord of a guy on the forums I used or a smaller youtuber I watched, never met anyone I wanted to be friends with really and my interest petered out at most after six months, haven't tried that since. The only exception was when I was a porn addict who was also addicted to mastrubating with other people but that doesn't count of course.That said, I would be interested in directly contacting you or other /jp/sies! As for old stuff, I'm poisioned with 2000s nostalgia and essentially regard otaku media from that decade with a religious fantaticism so I rarely think about anything after 2011 anyway.
>>51077633I don't want that. I despise talking to other people. 4chan is as good as it gets for me
>>51077735Not either of them but I'll bite, I just made a DiscordI'm mostly into Touhou so I don't know if we'll get along but herenamelessanon_Feel free if anyone else wants to add me
>>51077633There can be room for both, if you try to find balance.Brief connections with people anonymously have their purposes, just as brief connections with people IRL (like a quick chat over shared interests at a hobby gathering), small talk with strangers at the store, etc, have their purposes.The value of interacting with someone else doesn't hinge solely on whether or not they become a reoccurring aspect of your life.
>>51077899I'd almost bite, but I'm super autistic and mostly into VNs.

>>51078222No I am drunk and I'm operating with 450 ms lagg
>>51078196>Please motivate me coz I've been slacking.I haven't played Higurashi, though I've played Umineko.Maybe aim to read it for one hour a day, or 30mins if that's too much. That way you're still making progress on it each day. And maybe you'll get to a part that grabs your attention for longer.
>>51078229>And maybe you'll get to a part that grabs your attention for longer.I see that's the problem coz whenever I see voluptuous tomboyish body of Mion I need to plap my onahole.
>>51077011I can tell u a very hilarious story about an online friendship of mine, to prove you they're not a meme. For context, I spent half my 20s without friends, zero friends. Mostly isolating myself in a depressing neetdom. The virtual ones I had during that time were just superficial and temporary, never met irl or anything. The last "real" friends I had were in 2017 and were my old HS ones before we broke apart.On January 2024, I added this guy who was 19 at the time, I was 25. I rarely connect quick with people, like I'm not really good at the virtual social friends thing either. There are people who are NEETs or autists but have tons of friends on Discord or whatever, I had nothing. So, I find myself making friends with this guy, like very fast. It's like our personalities connected instantly or something. He likes Anime and autistic stuff like anime dolls like me, which is rare. He also likes Madoka as I do and we share a sense of humor. We played games, talk about life and eventually it just became a genuine friendship, one I haven't had in many years.March 2024 arrives. In only 3 months I became super friends with this guy, and he's living in the outskirts of my city, like 2.5h away right, not that close but not impossible. So, I wanted to go and hang out irl in one of those free anime events during the weekends. He's also a depressed NEET, so going out would help us both too. Plus, the idea of having a friend to go hang around in these places I had always gone alone to buy merch sounded very fun. Before we met irl, in one of my visits to those places, I bought him a gift. A set of matching pins of Madoka & Homura. He could keep Homura, cause she's his favourite one. I still keep the pic I took after buying the pair set, it wasn't really a surprise, so I remember sending him it too.https://i.imgur.com/cms3K2Q.pngDays later, when I finally met the guy, he looked like a total MASSIVE autist. He was wearing a hoodie the entire time that he never pulled down. It kinda threw me off at first, cause I wasn't used to being around actual internet autists, even though I had become one too. I don't know what I was expecting, but in insight I was just being judgmental and superficial because my previous friends hadn't been like that. Even then, I remember that at the end of that meeting I had eased up and kinda didn't want to leave, cause I was having a lot of fun talking with him and buying dumb shit. June 2024. Two months went by and we're still friends online, though we didn't meet again cause lazy and distance, plus I entered one of those depressive cycles were I would unconsciously isolate myself for some reason. He was also looking for a job and failing interviews. Around the first days of June, for some reason, he just didn't reply to me anymore. Maybe his phone got stolen? He lives in a shitty neighborhood so. Well, I have him added in various places, so he could contact me anywhere later. Right, but he never did. Weeks just turned into months. In our last chats he had told me he had pneumonitis and was taking some medicine. No way he would have died of that, not at 19 years old, right? I mean, it crossed my mind, but no way. I just really thought that, since he was kinda poor with a single mom, no PC, unemployed and all that, he might genuinely be having a hard time getting a new phone or something.As 2025 went by, I just knew it, but I guess I didn't want to accept it. It wasn't until late 2025 when one night I went back and tried getting his personal ID through his CV. I remember having tried before, but that night I succeeded. I remember spending some hours on it, and it was like 9AM when I got it, then I went to check it on some government website, and I just won't forget the feeling that came to me. The regret I felt at that moment, I had never felt something like that. I felt as if I had discovered something I just wasn't supposed to know, like I knew it, but getting the actual confirmation was another thing. I could only think how worse my mental health was going to become, and how I was even going to carry this shit. That morning, I stayed up until the afternoon searching for his address. He lived in a place without proper addresses, like blocks of apartments right, so I couldn't really know exactly where he lived. So, I spent the next hours with Google maps opened and all the pics he had sent me from his cat on the window, all to pinpoint where he lived, and I did. I could only think that I just wanted to go and ask his mom what happened. He was an only child as well. It's been months and I haven't gone yet. It's been on my mind since September. I want to go and ask his mom, I want to ask her if I can keep his pin, as a memory, or maybe place it in his grave, and then, and maybe then, it will be the end of my short-lived internet friendship.I also do this trauma dumps randomly cause I have zero friends and no therapy.
>>51078390What a fascinating story—it's like something taken straight out of LAIN, with both of you connected via the Wired.I hope everything is alright with him, too. Maybe he just moved on? You know how it is—life is a box of chocolates, people come and go, things happen. If it's still bugging you, you should definitely go check out his place, especially since you spent so much time investigating it. Or maybe it's just time to let go?In the end, we are all alone in this infinitely wide universe, and that's the beauty of cherishing the world you've built within it.
dead thread talk about something
>>51078752What if someone stabbed you at the register because they were crosseyed and meant to stab the clerk but got you instead. Wouldn't that be fucked up?
>>51078924yes
>>51078924I’d get a couple nasty bruises on my torso before I seized their arm to counter with a shoulder throw.
>>51078390This is an amazing story thanks for sharing. You gotta find out what happened to your friend anon
>>51078390Not what i would call a hilarious story, but I hope you get closure. I don't think you should stop pursuing the truth of where he went.
>>51078390tell more stories
>>51078390He sounds oddly familiar.Did you meet him through here? Do you know if he posted here?
Nigger
>>51080904Nice of you to announce yourself.
>>51077735that sounds nice, can't be worse than my discord experience so far: poponotsu_96313i'm mostly into slice of life stuff, older anime, games and jp movies, if anyone is interested in hanging out i'll be glad
>>51080958Don't care about any of that nonsense, but post more Miu.
>>51080940
What did you guys do for pride month?
...Anyways...
>>51078390I know it doesn't mean much coming from some random jackoff and I know you've heard it before but I genuinely am sorry and I can't imagine how horrible that is. A lot of my mother's friends died that young but that's because they were in the army or hooked on coke or something to that effect, brow-beaten men dying young is always a tragedy but especially when there isn't anything a soul could've done about it. Even if you regret how rarely you would've met or things you might have said, be happy that you were able to love him like you did and that you were able to be someone he really did want to see in what he might have known could've been his last remaining time. And don't feel weird about talking to his mom, you loved your friend and I'm sure she loved her son. She'd probably be happy to know someone gave him so much time and kindness until the end, and if she doesn't want to talk then at least you tried. It isn't about her anyway. But at this point, please don't close off your heart because of it. Don't feel like making new friends and being happy again is betraying or forgetting about him, you were miserable before you met him, right? He pulled you out of that, I'm sure he wouldn't ever have wanted you to return to it. I never like saying these things because of course I didn't know him, but for how much you loved him and how much he liked being with you and making you happy, I'm sure he'd want you to stay like that. And after all, you were able to find someone to be that close with this way, you can be happy like that again. It may not be with him and I know you'll always have a hole in your heart that can't be filled, but also remember that it isn't just about being able to feel that warmth again yourself. What you gave him you can still give , and even if you feel worthless or dejected remember that one of the greatest things you can do is give the broken-hearted love they're not used to. I'm this anon >>51077735 and I can say with full certainty that my friends are single-handedly responsible for keeping me afloat in the bleakest parts of my life, themselves also being a number of years older than me. I'm indescribably indebted to them for everything they've given me and despite them having less of their lives ahead of them than me, I'd take a bullet for them without question. Please keep your chest warm, you've done it before and you can do it again, no matter how hard it gets.

neet thread talk about neet
>>51082755rape, rape, rape
>>51082755mayoi-chan does not need to pull down her skirt here...what a slut~ <3
>>51081340Thanks anon. Its been some time by now so it is ok. Actually, when this happened, I didn't tell anyone about it, which it kinda suprised me, cause at the time I really wanted to let it out, to speak with anyone, but for some reason I mostly didnt.Of course I knew death can happen to anyone, but happening to someone so young and so close makes life feel so meaningless.I always think about how he was younger than me. He wanted to travel to Japan and stuff. He was just a kid that didn't get to live, at all. It pains me a lot. He was a very kind soul too, which is so rare for people you meet randomly online. I'm pretty sure I'm one of the last people he spoke with, he didn't have any other friends either.You know, really remembering all this does feel like a dream. Being alone, getting such a good friend and all this. It feels like I was robbed, I feel as if someone had stolen something from me, and the more I think about it the less I can shake the feeling, because I just know that he was going to become my best friend, and probably at that point already was anyway. Life took my best friend from me and I won't forget that feeling of loss ever.But, I'm not angry, I'm late 20s now so kinda accepted that's the nature of life's journey. Nothing lasts forever, nor the good nor the bad, and that's okay. Appreciate what you have and treasure your memories. Reminding myself of that even in the good times helps me being present and I have unironically grown more grateful and positive because of it, that's all I have.
>>51083111>It feels like I was robbed, I feel as if someone had stolen something from me, and the more I think about it the less I can shake the feeling, because I just know that he was going to become my best friend, and probably at that point already was anyway. Life took my best friend from me and I won't forget that feeling of loss ever.Don't know if you ever have but don't ever feel like that's something you shouldn't feel or that you should just get over it. It's bullshit and cruel and unfair and whenever you feel like that, you should remember that it's a blessing he was able to leave such an impact on you with the time he had left. I'm not a very spiritual person (or maybe I am with no spiritual beliefs) but I think it'd be nice to go out and do the things he wanted to for him, live his will a little and maybe feel closer to him again in the process.I am happy to hear you're doing better again, it sucks you don't have any friends again but I know that's just some people's preference and you might make another cherished connection with someone in the future. Similarly, if you ever feel crushed by that being all you have, also remember that you paved the road of happiness before, you can do it again.Stay warm friend, I'd hug you through the screen if I could.
>>51083111Why did you just ignore my question? >>51079686
first day at job was awfull and got firedsort of glad i dont have to show up againi am not made for work
>>51083662what'd you get fired for and what kind of work was it?I got fired from my job before this one for falling asleep 'cause they had me open earlier than normal and also kept me at the store very late after the night before because they thought doing a big system change for the register the night before a big sale weekend was a good idea.either way sakura and tomoyo are great comfort to sink into/slamfuck and feel nice
masaka...autosage da!
>>51083752We're being oppressed as always.
>>51083757I remember when jannies were scrubbing these threads every time and we couldnt have a neet thread at all a few years agoits really sad as I think its an integral part of otaku cultureits only natural that losers would also suck in the normie job world
>>51083434Sorry, I forgot after writing all that and went to sleep. No, he didn't know English very well.>>51083409Thanks bro. Yeah, maybe for starters I'll get a job cause he tried really hard for that, even told me he prob got sick from going to the interviews.Okay enough traumaposting, thanks everyone for reading, u cant continue the neet thread
what's your go-to neet food? cleaning dishes is obviously a pain, but i want to eat healthier. so sometimes i buy a cucumber and snack on it through the day, mostly it's instant noodles or frozen pizza. if i'm really motivated i cook noodles and put insta sauce on it, currently i try to come up with a good onepostpasta thing. i have a rice cooker, but cleaning that also sucks, and you have to prepare something with the rice which also means an additional pot.
>>51084426clean your stuff while youre cooking so afterwards theres less to clean. I personally eat whatever, I prefer to put things in a big bowl or something. I dont like small dishes (im not fat)
>>51084426i genuinely can't understand why people eat disgusting instant noodles instead of at the very least just eggs
>>51074140My underwear smells like cum and lube to the point I just smelled it myselfneed to change it more often
>>51084603because i have to clean a pot/pan for eggs, like i mentioned
>>51084683how lazy can you be?That is a dangerous amount of lazyness
>>51084426The laziest 'healthy' food I make is a bowl of peas. Drain a can of peas, pour them into a bowl and microwave for 1 minute, then top with seasoning and a little butter.My preference when I'm not too lazy is to meal prep multiple days worth of lunches.-A cold quinoa bowl topped with boiled egg and veggies (carrots, bell peppers, broccoli, etc. Also topped with chickpeas that I toss in olive oil and bake until crunchy, then season with a spice blend I make (smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, etc). I pour on a (store-bought) sweet-chili sauce just before eating.-I also sometimes make bento boxes. Rice that I top with furikake, tamagoyaki, steamed veggies, and teriyaki meatballs. I'm trying to get ideas to mix it up more often.
>>51084426There are all-in-one rice cooker meals you can make that could save time and dishes. I haven't tried enough yet to give recommendations but there are lots of recipes/videos around for that kind of thing. Basically throwing your veggies, protein and seasonings in there to cook alongside the rice.
>>51084693well i struggle with cleaning the fork/chopsticks i use for instant noodles>>51084694your lazy can of pea idea sounds like a plan, sankyu!tamagoyaki and teriyaki meatballs mmh, sometimes i do make meatballs but it usually takes an hour or so, and meat is kind of expensive>>51084713i feel stupid for never trying that before, only recently got the cooker, but cooking rice and putting the veggies on top would be more than enough
>>51084683you literally just run a wipe over the pan and it'll be enough
>>51084759Man, you're too lazy. Those are only dishes. Like literally just wipe that shit.Look up 1-pot rice cooker meals on youtube, other than that there's no hope for you unless you man up and start to clean your shit.
>>51084840what about the spatula? no i won't use my fork to damage the pan. the plate i put the eggs on? not to mention keeping an eye on the ideal softness of the egg, life is hard hard man
>>51085079can't deny that. to be fair i haven't always been like this and cooked kind of a lot back then. guess mental health really caught up with my neet life
>>51085112another wipe for the spatuladon't use a plate eat it off the pan
hello
>>51085120It will get better :)
why don't you take them
>>51084426I love japanese golden curry that i can get from my nearby chingchong/paki stores but that's two pots like you said.I have another dish i call "lazy thai curry" where i chuck rice into the cooker, go 50/50 water and coconut milk along with half a teaspoon of thai curry paste (adjust based on spicyness), and add some veggies+chicken to the steaming basket in the rice cooker. After cooking you mix it all together. serve with sriracha if you feel like it
>>51086150OOOOooooh a fellow curry enjoyer!? In this day and age?What's your favourite Japanese curry variation? Mine is with katsudon and Koshihikari rice from toyama prefecture.You should try House Vermont brand curry roux. It already has grated apple in it.After curry is done I'd like to add a small cut of butter and a little bit of ketchup into it.I could eat it everyday.
>>51052819>Kurisu would post on /g/ or /sci/ thoughPlot-wise she would post on /x/.
>>51086185I haven't dabbled outside of the standard golden curry. When i feel fancy i do deep fried chicken or pork. When I'm lazy (most times) i just chuck whatever i have and want in.I'll look out for the vermont curry. I enjoy apple flavour. Is the flavour profile different otherwise? Asking since i there is a good chance they have it in stock
>>51085820Are they safe and effective?
My upper left chest feels tight after my workoutfuck meI am trying to avoid it as much as possible but seeing a cardiologist might not be so badAnd thenHe will tell me im fine despite feeling like shitKekeke
>>51086308Oh yes, apple adds up that sweet tune. It changes a lot. You could also grate it into the pot by yourself.Bonus points if you also grate garlic and ginger into it.You'll taste authentic Japanese curry.
>>51053759I don't want friends, especially not internet friends. I want conversation without identity that I can drop for months or years at a time without feeling guilty or having to worry about what will happen when I go back to them.
I dreamed of a transfer student coming and changing my life all throughout highschool It never happenedI miss the baseless optimismHopefully every new schoolyear, this time its gonna happen for me
I can get better, I just have to get out of bed in 7 hours, that's all it will take to improve my life, I would like to try
Things could be alot betterI really feel like shit now
I want a friend I can be autistic together about my interests with!
>>51091259what kind of interests do you have?
>>51091269I mostly really like VNs
>>51091303Ah, I've barely played (read?) any...
>>51065548Fell for the CS meme too, currently living the same lifestyle but without the job or income. What job do you work? It sounds comfy.
>>51038124I thought she had fried chicken on her lower back. Anyway, my neet life sucks, yet also doesn't. I want to keep being a neet but I feel I'm in jail. There are things I want to do, hobbies, but I'm doing jail time...
>>51065548Depends how old you areSave that money, stop spending it on dumb worthless plastic otaku shit to fill space.I am 29 now and still live with my parents. It's the worst life I could have EVER imagined. I had no idea 10 years ago that my life would be this miserable, I have no job, I have never travelled anywhere, and I live with just a terribly subhuman that makes my life hell as well, making me wish everyday that I would wake up and they would just be dead. You have no idea the kind of life you live and how everyone would kill to be a firstoid living with comfy good parents
