>>85106651I must've fucked up somewhere because I became my mom(not trooning out, just mentally ill)
>>85106651what's the matter dude? you're broke and can't give him money (you shouldn't have given him money anyways) and you're on your hustle and grind and you shared with him what you're doing and tried to help and gave him the time of day and weren't disrespectful. I see nothing wrong here.
>>85106651About a year into my first relationship I realized my dad was right about everything kek.No we're super close and I'm pretty much a carbon copy of him
>>85106651Is Trump running a third term? At this point I wouldn't mind, that would be a welcome change.
>>85106681I just want a dictator king to take over and kill the opposition
I'm really nothing like my dad, for good and bad. Only things we share are a superiority complex and an inability to understand and connect with other people.
i'm not like my dad at all>have a degree>can't ex nihilo pussy >don't run a successful business that i built from the ground up>can't cook delicious food>take life super seriously>need people to like me
>>85106651My dad is just a guy (shitty father, shitty husband, but has a normal ass life). I wish I was like him.
>>85106651>When did you realize you had become your dad?whenever i'm fixing somethingevery time i hear my dad yell profanity i instantly go "yep, he's fixing something">just yesterday i got home from a 5 hour drive>come home and turn computer on, while it's turning on i fetch booze from the fridge downstairs>come back upstairs to my CPU/DRAM lights on my motherboard fucking flashing like my motherboard is trying to give me an epileptic seizure>spend the entire day borderline rebuilding the entire fucking thing from the ground up, not a single 15 seconds pass without me swearing>turns out one of my CPU pins were bent (how the fuck??? i was gone for an entire week, didn't touch my PC ONCE)>precision of a heart surgeon needed to bend it back into place>swearing the entire time LOL>low and behold it all worked out because i'm typing this shitty (You)
>>85106651Sure would've been nice to have someone set me up with a union job
>>85106651my dad had my older brother at 19. i haven't talked to a female yet and i'm 25.
>Dad barely had friends, was an idiot, never married, no careerI'm a normie>Joe goes on a rant about people just need that drive to be successful. Success is 90% luck you weren't born a dirt farmer somewhere
