Why are there so many videos like this nowadays? https://youtu.be/urEv7mc_Jrg?si=I5Y8IXA06yvpC7QS
>middle age man making a self-indulgent vlog about his heckin regrets and life lessonsFucking embarrassing. Couldn't be me.
>I'm tired of hiding who I am and I'm going to finally be my true selfNigga I'm literally an incel, how tf am I supposed to participate in society if I let the real me out
>>82631470by making up sob stories on youtubeit doesn't have to be the actual real you
>>82631427>I'm tired of making so much money. I'm now just going to spend it.Boomers live in some alternate reality with alternate problems
>>82631427>Obese and Ugly: How I Got Here
>>82631427i wish these people just killed themselves like normal people instead of thinking anyone cares.
>>82631541Did you ever eat biscuits with sausage gravy?
>>82631583They lived good lives and have had GFs and close friends. But middle age crisis gets to everyone and now I have to hear their stories that lifemog me to oblivion
>>82631681Oh yeah. Not as much as chicken biscuits though
>>82631762yeah but we aren't crying on youtube because we're failed normfags. we were never normal to begin with. these videos fill me with hatred.
>>82631427midlife crisis LMAOthat's what he gets for wagecucking like a faggot LOL
>>82631427In some ways it is old youtube in a modern YouTube setting. Old youtube used to be real and sometimes people just want to be real but they also want to blow up and get views. The older generation can't turn back the years so they would like to give their bits of advice to the younger crowd.
>>82631427is he sitting inside his own house?
>>82631788I mean, I'm crying on 4chan. I like having an outlet to let out my rage, especially after my therapist ghosted me
>>82631427"I was kind of shitty to incredibly good friends."
>>82631842you just don't get his suffering
>>82631427It's just some psuedo-enlightment guru crap. This guy has a wife and kids.Fucking retard is making a video like he's alone and miserable. He's 45 and just realized "Bro i'm gonna TRY NEW THINGS". I hate cucks like this
>>82631842money isn't happiness because you WILL get used to anything you purchase, you WILL take it for granted and want something else that catches your eye. You will never be happy.
>>82631427"Everybody dies, but few ever live"Example
>>82631427"I should have known better" or "Too afraid to live, too scared to die"
>>82631427>AWWW SHIIIIIIIIIIITwould be a short video of me finally dying by doing something dumb as hell on a wheeled conveyance. I guess I regret being overweight for a while, that was dumb as hell. tasted good getting there tho >>82632244nah, when I ride one of my bikes or go for a joyride in my stupid little shitbox it's always a hoot
>>82631427People will always have regrets no matter what they choose to do. It's human nature to be dissatisfied by what you have, to want more. The path not taken is always imagined optimistically, imagination will always be superior to reality. The reality is that the outcome of different choices is completely unknown and always will be. Could be better, could be worse, you'll never really know. Hindsight is not perfect, there's details you don't even know exist.
>>82631526>I was succesful enough and with good enough job that at 42 I essentially retired and turned an expensive hobby into my lifestyle for 10 years now, woe is me>You should totally just do the same! How are you supposed to afford it? Dunno lol.Are these niggers serious?
>>82633121Just invest in stonks, bro
>>82632500Did you get propositioned by some BBC? Chickened out on the gangbang? Me too, man. It's scary.
>>82632118>This guy has a wife and kids.I wonder how they feel about being called a waste lmao
>>82633871He was a stay at home dad.
>>82631427Bold to say i have a regret video.
>>82631427OP don't share youtube links with si in them, thats a tracker. Have some common courtesy for your fellow anons
>>82631427>What would your regret video be called?"It Is What it Is, Tubes"
>>82631427"I never raped anyone"
>what would your regret video be"Stay away from time sinkholes or you'll wake up one day at 40 having accomplished nothing">why are there so many videos like thisbecause it is a popular form of media nowadays, guys like seeing other people fail so they feel more confident in themselves
>>82631427>first 30 seconds of vidholy heckerino he's literally mebut yeah nothing really matters anyway so sheeeeet
>>82631818>the virgin midlife crisis due to wagecucking for 25 yearsvs>the chad suicide before 30 due to neeting and severe depressionhooolyy..
>>82636081>"Stay away from time sinkholes or you'll wake up one day at 40 having accomplished nothing"literally me
>>82631427>halfway point>cryingit's over for him, ickmaxxed at this point
>>82631427Why are the people who make these videos always complete normalfags with jobs and girlfriends? Why aren't there any 35 year old wizard NEETs making videos like these?
>>82631427id title it 80 yrs of zero regret and rant for 4 hours about how much world is a fuck and how life itself is at fault
>>82636846I don't feel comfortable having my parents hear me through my bedroom door telling strangers on the internet that I wish I died in my sleep 20 years ago. Especially when everyone who comments on the video will just tell me to kill myself and then they'll repost it to reddit and someone else will use it as a case study in how to avoid making more of me. I think I much prefer laying down in a hole in quiet obscurity waiting for death to hopefully take me while preserving as much of my dignity as possible.
>>82636985>I wish I died in my sleep 20 years ago.>having my parents hear me through my bedroom doorhow do you cope living like this? why not just improov? perpetual state of coping and angernah, too much for me even
>>82634101what you really mean to say is "delete that part of the link"
>>82636846Would it kill you to do some research before posing dumb propositions?https://youtu.be/VQsdy_yaQAQ
>>82631427>quality of life dropping for all age and income brackets aside from those with generational wealth or in the upper ~5%>even those who are still living comfortably are feeling it to a degree>this makes them question their life choices, as despite what they thought may have been good decisions has led them to worse and worse loving standards>normies can't cope with itthere u go
The only difference between you niggas and these "normies" is that they admit to themselves that they made a mistake, and want to help others avoid the same.You niggas refuse to ever take accountability and don't give a shit about others' fates, ironically despite being in a position to offer warnings you yourself either never got or refused to heed.
>>82637174No, the difference is these normies make a fucking YouTube video about it. You can both take accountability and help others without doing that. In fact, most people do.
>>82637203Despite being on /r9k/, nobody in this thread has responded to OP in such a way that indicates any of them hold themselves responsible for the poor state of their lives. You are one of the niggas I'm talking about.
>>82637278Isn't that what you wanted from this thread? Affirmation in your previously held beliefs?
>>82637315What, you think I'm OP just because I'm calling you stupid? Clearly I did not expect much from you respondents if I'm able to formulate such a criticism of you lot in time for this thread. I post in case any of you are not too fargone to not see once it's been pointed out to you.
>>82637278>responsible for the poor state of their lives>just grow taller bro>just change your bone structure bro>just get rid of your autism/schizophrenia bro:skull:
>>82637278>poor state of their livesI'm doing pretty good right now actually, I made a lot of improvements over the past year and have been doing and feeling better than I have in a long time
>normies get to the age of 45 before they realise they may have set a foot wrongI was having those thoughts at 19, man. These people are so slow on the uptake.
>>82637430what's your excuse then when you encounter another man who overcame all of that or worse? rhetorical question
>>82637503you're still here, so clearly you don't know as much about yourself as you think you do
>>82637993>who overcame all of thatHow ? The 2 first can only be "solved" with surgery but the procedure is very dangerous and expansive.As for my schizophrenia... idk what do you except me to do to cure it.
>>82638098It's not up to me to tell you the "how", you either find the way or you don't, but don't pretend the way doesn't exist just to satisfy your vigorless fragile ego.
>>82638121How convinient.>trust me bro there's a way to solve your problems>i wont tell you how though>because uhh umm
>>82638480You're not a man. You're a pussy. Yeah, young men need a degree of guidance. But pussies want everything on a silver platter and refuse to try to make morsels work. It's all or nothing with you, and thus you deserve the nothing you'll be getting via your own refusal to expend effort and take risks.
>>82638531>You're not a man. You're a pussyI could kill you with a single punch>young men need a degree of guidanceNo I dont>your own refusal to expend effort and take risksI did make efforts though. And ive asked out countless foids, always got rejected anyway.Fuck off faggot
>>82638531>You're not a manWhat? I do have a penis
>>82638002I like posting here faggot
>>82631427>He has friends>He has a wife>He has kids>He seems to have money>He lives in his own house, no a small house either, looks like he's broadcasting from a room bigger than my house.What this Millennial fag needs to do is take a shotgun and paint the wall with his faggot brains. Hopefully there'll be a video of him doing it so someone can send it to his kids.
>>82639658you didn't watch the videofaking it =/= making it
>>82631444how was this video self-indulgent, wanker?
>>82631506>making upwhat are you implying?do you get a kick out of dismissing others' problems while also expecting to take yours seriously?
>>82631526the alternate reality where they have a job to quit and a life to live, unlike you
>>82631427> I wasted 45 years>Here's my advice Yeah I'm not taking advice from a looser
>>82631583It's not about accruing sympathy and pity you bitter retard, it's about warning faggots like you not to make the same mistakes and reasoning through how you can reach the epiphanies necessary to save yourself.It's literally an attempt to provide the compassionate guidance you claim you wish you wish you had growing up, but now refuse just to try to feel morally superior. It's hilariously ironic and a good display of how you deserve your shitty life.
>>82639787have you ever heard of "negative example"'s, wiseguy?someone showing you what not to do is just as if not more valuable than the opposite, provided you have a brain to engage in deductive reasoning with, which you evidently unfortunately don't
>>82636782killing yourself is gay as fuckkilling yourself at 29 or earlier is even gayer
>>82631788instead you're crying on here with your "fellow" robots who like you don't give a shit about each others problems and just futilly engage in the illusion of a community with little to no positive impact on others' livesyou unironically think you're better than he is because you vent in textboxes nobody reads while he's advising people through a camera
>>82637084>why not just improov?because most of the pieces of shit on this board are hopelessly lazy and entitledif it requires work, they don't want it
>>82631829old youtube was anime poops & music videos and comedy sketches & lightsaber skits
>>82639696>He has friends>He has a wife>He has kids>He seems to have money>He lives in his own house, no a small house either, looks like he's broadcasting from a room bigger than my housewhat else this fag needs in life?
>>82632118Your dad had a wife and kids and he fucked around and produced you.Having something and making the most of it are two different things. His video is about being a manchild who never dared to grow up and just went through the motions faking it until he could no longer lie to himself about his state.You'd actually do well to heed him. Not only are you a manchild like he is, but you're a failure too. At least he managed to get a "wife and kids" and home et cetera et cetera.
>>82639921You're so terribly immature (or perhaps even spiritually barren) you can only observe the world through a strictly material lens.If you watched the video, it'd be clear to you he's complaining about lack of self-respect and the inability to be a role model and personal hero. He is complaining about not feeling like a man, something he knows he denied himself because he did not want to risk failure and hardship and energy, and because he didn't believe in himself to succeed.You don't understand because it isn't even conceivable to you that an adult male should feel-and-be capable of being others' rocks and pillars. You don't understand responsibility and dependability and pride. You need to grow up asap.
>>82636820it says more about you that the specific thing that brings him to tears goes completely over your head
>>82636081>guys like seeing other people fail so they feel more confident in themselvesthat's a disingenuous and misleading framing
>>82632471this should become a board aphorism
>>82631427>vlog.Write it in a written paragraph so it can read in 2 minutes instead of wasting 15 minutes making people listen to his sadsack voice come out of his lumpy mashed potatoes lookin dadface mumbling ums and uhs into a mic while he looks around the room like a bored labrador. Wanting people to look at his face for 15 minutes straight as if he's handsome or has some profound wisdom or something.All I got was that he wasted 20 years of his life in a boring routine being a stay at home dad and I guess he was going to say regrets not doing something more active and chellenging like god knows what. Hiking a mountain or something. And OP thinks this is relevant to anons how? Young men aren't just avoiding fun, the current economy prices them out of it.
>>82639978Dude, don't fall for that faggot and self-indulgent nonsense. The things he spouts is secondary in life. Be a "role model" and a "personal hero." Get the basics done in life, that's what it is. There are guys his age who accomplish nothing. They have no relationships, no family, not even a decent job at that age, living with constant depression and suicidal thoughts.The faggots here make fun of a 30-year-old man who's never had sex, but for some reason they feel sorry for a 45-year-old millennial faggot with a wife and kids going through a midlife crisis for not being a fucking role model. Go fuck yourself.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGNnV5lQZbY
I don't really "regret" anything, everything in my life was fucked up and I was out of my mind most of the time it would be meaningless. I can't imagine a time in my life where I had both the knowledge and means to change anything except the last few years. I suppose I regret wasting time on 4chan and vidya when I could have been working harder, but this is common procrastination not something worth making a video on. If I were to make a video it would be more practical, something about drugs and mental healthcare probably.
>>82640124>read in 2 minutes instead of wasting 15 minutesevery YTer does this, YT would be garbage if I didn't have ublock and discernment
>>82640156>Dude, don't fall for that faggot and self-indulgent nonsense.wtf are you even talking about?>The things he spouts is secondary in life.I seriously doubt you even actually understand what he was talking about, let alone can properly assign values>Be a "role model" and a "personal hero."Why is this in quotes, you fag? This is like 75% of what it takes to be a father.>Get the basics done in life, that's what it is.What "basics" are you thinking?>There are guys his age who accomplish nothing.Yeah, and? Being marginally better off than total losers not only doesn't make you not significantly worse off than the winners, but also has no bearing on the actual fulfillment you've got going on in your life. Your life can always be better and it's mostly your fault that it isn't.>The faggots here make fun of a 30-year-old man who's never had sex, but for some reason they feel sorry for a 45-year-old millennial faggot with a wife and kids going through a midlife crisis for not being a fucking role model.You've got it jumbled retard, the same fags who make fun of each other for being virgins will also make fun of a dude who cries on camera, with no regards to anything deeper going on.
>>82640162Hitting close to home is when one's message is most impactful. If people can't see themselves in your story, and imagine a bad ending that's already been lived through by someone else, they are more likely to not take the advice seriously.
>>82633121I hate baby boomers so much it's unreal. Thank fuck these parasites die eventually.
>>82631427They finally realize the normal fag narrative is fake and nobody gives a shit about their "success" and what they do with their lives. Now it's trendy to talk about like nutrition and fitness.
>>82640284#2 translation is "I wish I hadn't mindlessly wagecucked"the others are accurate
>>82640284Well I've never worked a day in my life and don't plan to. Don't just not work hard. Don't work at all.
>>82637469No you're not, you're doing awful. You're way behind
>>82638531Gotta go to prison and take some butts
>>82639790I hope you get killed by Black guys
>>82639827How about a 29" mountain bike?
>>82639926Faking what? What's he faking?What does that say about the wife? Is she a woman child?
>>82640874Faking being a full-fledged man and real adult.When you hear the term "adulting", it means "I have not yet psychologically matured into feeling real adulthood but must go through its motions as if I have."
>>82641004How would anyone identify when they've matured?
>>82641004Is DJ Khaled a mature adult?
>>82641010Childish anxieties like taking on too much responsibility or feeling like a fraud that can't be depended upon or sought after will dissipate.It's when things are hard or something goes wrong and your first instinct is no longer to look for the adult in the room, because at this point you have internalized that that's supposed to be you.When you have now embodied the father figure others gravitate around, and no longer dream of one above yourself.These and more are signs that manhood has been attained. Manhood is inextricably tied with fearless self-confidence and responsible willing dependability. If you don't have those you will find yourself incessantly panged by your arrested development whenever you encounter real challenge.
>>82641019I know almost nothing about him.
>>82631526lmao it's wild that i saw this exact video and comment and it pisses me off just as much
>>82631427"Me and my dogshit nigger life"
>>82640284>I wish I had pretended at least a little bit so people liked me more>I wish I worked harder so I didn't just rot into the dirt in an unmarked grave>I wish I had lied more instead of being pointlessly honest>I wish I ghosted people sooner instead of wasting my time on pointless relationships>I wish I had been less complacent, maybe even angry enough to do something
>>82640868bicycling is the gayest sport known to man, so in this case i would say you should absolutely kill yourself for sure
>>82642297Should the whole family go with me?
>>82642318sure, hell maybe a couple neighbors too. why not. but bikefags have small squashed up little balls so you won't do anything, ever
>>82631844>my therapist ghosted meBr00tal. Pay a whore instead
>>82642332I have erectile dysfunction from cycling. It makes me want to get fucked and ride reverse cowboy so my useless dick can flop around
>>82631427After the woman I loved with all of my heart despite looking like Michael Reeves in drag rejected not just me but the very concept of love and became an overweight meth addicted lesbo consumed by dick envy, I kinda stopped holding any woman in high regard.There was however one fleeting moment when I actually thought for a moment that I was wrong.That there are women out there who are not overweight, neurotic or cruel.It tore me apart and I actually started to work on myself for a few months.Then in that time the one singular girl who made me feel that way put on a lot of weight, shaved a lot of her hair off, dyed the rest blue and donned a retarded cow ring.Despite this just like the fat methed up lesbo, she found her 6ft+ boyfriend of her dreams and became a member of his polycule.My regret video would be>It shouldn't have taken me so long to see them as the completely irredeemable creatures they areListened to a woman (drug mule/addict) today explain that she doesn't give two actual shits about her own two sons.Vile fucking monsters.
