>Me with other single broke depressed virgin anons in their 30's, hanging out in our cool comfy car hideout talking about anime, and having fun.
>>85096772This sounds comfy as hell. I am closest to the McDonald's bro, I guess.
>>85096772Can we talk about vidya instead?
>>85096897Oh yeah, I forgot, I do not watch anime anymore. Nothing outside of what happened to catch me when I was growing up ever appeals, so I stopped paying attention. I have a hard time seeing it as more than juvenile, no matter the subject or tone.
>>85096772>make a decent thread>abandon it so it dies on the vineclessik
>>85096971What the fuck did you want me to do? Self-bump it? I can't force anons to reply to it.
>>85096772This is the fucking mood. I remember driving with my friends to the mall or across the state in a beat up Camry. Unfortunately my friends made it with relationships, careers, and lives and I don't want to hold them back so I pushed them away. I can never relive these times again without it being forced and awkward, it is what it is.
>>85097003You had 2 separate people say something. I'm >>85096872 and I get that is not the best convo starter, but I am here. Then you had >>85096897
>>85097044So, you want to do a circle-jerk RP thread where we all reply to each other and hope the thread catches fire and more people jump in? If the thread was interesting then more people would naturally join in on it, and if it's boring then it's boring.
>>85097024It is so awkward checking in with the college people I knew. You used to be on the same page, but some combination of wealth and life experience makes them into a different class of human. There is what feels like a physiological barrier when it comes to trying to reach out to someone you used to know who has now since blossomed into the kind of wealthy, respected person who anchors a community or supports a family.
>>85097053Whew, lads. I have no clue what to say to something so sour....why not jerk in a circle?
>>85096772sounds good but i have no friends lmao
>>85097070Honestly, at least in my opinion, it's hard to go back and re-connect with people you haven't seen in several years. A lot of things can happen in that span of time. I haven't spoken to anyone from college in about 11-12 years. I imagine a lot of them got married and had kids. I tried looking some of them up, but most don't have social media accounts. I heard a couple of them got married, probably have kids by now I would think. One of them I think is single and lives alone, but I don't think he ever wanted kids or a wife. Another one became some lesbian poly dyke slut, so god knows how many people she's had sex with. I feel like 1-2 of them are probably either dead or in prison, if I had to guess. I don't think they really think about me and I don't think about them except every now and again. I really have no interest in reconnecting with people. It'd be like starting the entire relationship over again from scratch, and for all you know they could be brand new people. Who is to say you'd even get along with them now? They might not have the same interests or personality that you remember. I don't think I've changed much in the last 10-15 years aside from being more mature and grounded, but I still like the same stuff and listen to the same music. I might not be as LE WACKY and cringe in public, but that's because I have more maturity and self-awareness. I don't think people in their 30's should be behaving in such a way in public. There is a time and a place. If you're at an anime convention or something then I can understand, but I don't wear graphic t-shirts anymore and I don't wear anime accessories anymore either. Part of me feels like I just conformed to adult society, and I guess I did. I'm too self-conscious about being judged and looked down by others for being a grown man in his 30's dressing and acting like I'm mentally 15 years old. I see it all the time in public though. We're all approaching our mid 30's by now, and
>>85097121Yes. I have learned the folly of not accounting for how time changes a person: I always suffer from afterglow in the wake of a relationship, and then it smacks me when I find them with some new guy, a kid, or a litany of creative accomplishments.As for the feeling of being judged by a stricter metric for your age, I was a late bloomer in all things. Like, I meet my last impactful mentors at 26, and it felt like a new lease on life. If you are supported by people who understand you, the sky's the limit on who you can be.Alone in my dark-ass room without a soul to phone or spend time with, however, I notice I am more cautious and less outgoing, wary that people can see right through me: unc, without a penny or accolade to his name, all because 29 came to an end. W h e w, l a d z.
>happy zoomer in the back eating his slop
>>85096772God I miss drinking and driving. One DUI and ten k later really takes the fun out of it
>>85096772I unironically work at McDonald's in my 30's. A year ago I was working in tech sales making 6 figures lol. Wild wild world.
>>85098744Older than you and worked at mcdicks and dq and Walmart and about to start BK . Made 60k my last year of tradie employment years ago
>>85098755Yeah, I've kind of accepted I'm working these types of jobs from now on. Not even really upset about it.
>mfw I see 3 weird guys in a car as a 35 year old normieThere's a cafe right around the corner you could talk in...
>>85096772>I don't even have a car
>>85098822Cafes are gay. >let's pay $8 for a cup of coffee (I don't drink) and $6 for micro cake (I don't eat sweets too)
