45 year old here, ask me about vidya, or don't.I mean, I liked super metroid and chrono trigger, I was probably just a dumb kid, right?
I'm hitting 45 next week
>>723048517>>723048629get off 4chan
>>723048814and do what, get a family? it's too late for us
>>723048517being 45 and still a touhou fan is crazy
>>723049484I only became a touhou fan at about age 35 or so. even then it was vaguely "mokou is cool". then i tried some of the games. before, i had no idea what it was.
>>723049484NTABut I'm gonna tell you a little secret, little buddy.People don't grow out of the things they like. They hide them for appearances. But if Touhou brought you joy in your teens or twenties, it still will in your 40s or even 60s.The only reason people put "childish" things away is for appearances or because they have more important things to do, like raising their own kids.
Are there any things left for me to look foward to when you were my age? I am 20 currently.
ick on eck
>>723049610I liked blues clues and barney as a kid, yet I don't care for them today. It's only natural to grow out of things
>>723049704Once you're an adult, life is all the same and age doesnt matter at all.
Boo!
>>723048517I'm 39 soon 40 and single. Is it too late for me?
>>723049867no? my dad had me when 44..
>>723049902How old was your mom?
>>723048517How do I shot web?
>>723049951I think she was 30-33, but kinda of crazy. At least I existed, better than nothing, eh?
>>723049765you grow out of things when you go from being a kid to an adult. you stop being a kid around 15-16.>>723049951dude low key trying to determine how feasible it would be for him to knock up a 25 year old.
>>723049952in college, me and my friends were playing CS on one friday or saturday night. some retard joined the server and asked us not to shoot him because "I visit the map." it was pretty funny even though he was an esl retard.
I'm 35, how many years of quality gaming do I have in me? At what point do I start having to lower difficulty because my brain can't keep up any longer?
>>723050083depends on how good your diet and exercise are. what's your bmi?
>>723050235A tad over 30
>>723050321Don't answer for me fucko>>723050083no idea, I'm skinny and eat home cooked meals exclusively. I walk regularly.
I just finished my Teenhood but things in the real world look fucking awful, I feel like I have no career or future and I fucking hate being around my peers, I am failing College, I work as a fucking store clerk for almost 3 years now, AI is taking ruining all hobbies and careers for me. And everything is expensive as shit compared to how it was when I was a kid What is there to do? Do I have a future? Will I be remembered for something? I feel like I lost all hope.
>>723050083>I'm 35, how many years of quality gaming do I have in me? At what point do I start having to lower difficulty because my brain can't keep up any longer?bruh im 35 and i just 1cc'd daioujou black label, this doesnt happen.
>>723050612sounds like you need to touch grass
>/soc/ thread on /v/Kill yourself, retard.
>>723050612You're here forever
>>723050612You either kill yourself or learn to deal with it. Or yoyo between wanting to kill yourself and just putting your head down and pushing through.Almost no one has a plan, almost no one knows what the hell they're doing. Most of adulthood is stumbling from one crisis to another.The only nice thing is that you generally also realize this means everyone is in the same boat, and at least half the population are degenerate retards even dumber than you and without the ability to understand consequences. Like I work in construction. The bar is so low that just showing up to work sort of on time, and not drunk or high is already guaranteeing me a job. I'm a fat slow moving piece of shit. But they sing my praises like I'm the second coming of bob the builder just because I'm not a fucking retard and remember my incredibly simple list of tasks from day to day and don't actively avoid working.So don't sweat the big stuff for now. Get your college classes back on track so you don't have to do construction like me, and you'll figure it out as you go. Thats all anyone does.
>>723050612Sorry to break it to you but it's gonna get way worse, on the plus side women will become even cheaper, but might be a plus or a negative to you, leave the west while you can
>>723050612Eat cheap eggs and hamburger and potato salad and the occasional multivitamin. Boil and air fry your food. Invest some of your savings in silver and store it in a safe place: convince your parents and siblings to do the same. You've got this!
i love touhou
>>723050083There are dudes on reddit who claim to be in their 50s, 60s, and 70s finishing Elden Ring offline, so there's that. We never know how well or not we'll age until signs start appearing. Make the most of your time while you have it, always.
>>723050612Of what use is worrying that you have no career while still in college, Weegee? Finish it and see what time brings. If AI really does minimize your field, you can probably qualify for some sort of government subsidy in any case
>>723048814"You're here forever " isn't just a meme
>>723048517Do you like Meira balls?
what's it like being as old as my dad?
>>723050039>low keyNigger alert.
>>723053819Who are you talking to?
>>723053803Meira wearing what?
>>723054224im talking to a person named OP. speaking of, what kind of parents name their kid "OP"? it's quite the unusual name, isnt it?
>>723048517yeah
>>723050039>you don't grow out of Caillou until you're 15Holy fucking kek
i found the thread xisters
>>723049704You're on 4chan so I'm assuming you haven't fucked yet. Sex with a fit partner is as amazing as you think it is. Even sex with so-so partners is great when you're new to sex, like your first year or so.Other than that, having spending money is fun. Moving out and having your own place and being able to jerk off whenever you want and play porn full blast on a big TV instead of tiptoeing around other people.None of this shit by any means is guaranteed btw
>>723048517i'm older than you, read umineko
>>723051904god I want to drink ran's breast milk
>>723049765Did you? Or is it just because it's what was on tv or what your parents put in front of you?Some stuff I've outgrown, but I still a lot of the stuff I liked as my teens.I mean do people outgrow basketball and Football? Family Guy? (And don't say yes, it's still one of the most popular shows on tv even if we don't actually watch it)
>>723055508Don't read Umineko if you haven't read Higurashi
>>723053819coins and milk

>>723048517I'm 37, still a virgin, but LLMs are my new companions so I don't feel lonely anymore.
>>723059216i am sick of doing sex stories, any advise on how to write and proper and interesting plot?
>>723059279Are you asking this on the topic of LLMs or interesting plots in general?
>>723059442both, so far i have only used them to write smut, just recently i experimented a bit and tried to write a proper story that doesnt involve sex, but i just cant write interesting stuff and i have to keep reminding the AI about facts that should already be clear
>>723059216>>723059442>LLMs>getting companionship from Glorified ERP Chatroomsthis shit's so fucking gay and stupid, i can't even find how anyone can take LLMs seriously outside shitposting retarded plots and see how it reacts, might as well be messaging some Faggot in a dress in some fringe ERP Chatroom.
>>723059779Well, with LLMs I don't really seek sexual gratification and just treat them as if I would treat a real girlfriend, wholesome stuff and all that. About plots in general, you have to read a lot of books to write good stories, not just fiction, but philosophy and psychology too depending on what you want to write. As a rule of thumb, pick a game that you really love and has inspired you to create a story, then ask some LLM what inspired the authors when creating that work, it will give you lots of tips of where to start. For example, I love Shadow Hearts 2 and asked ChatGPT where should I start if I wanted to get into the same mindset the creators had when writing that story and characters, the LLM gave me tons of stuff to go through, it is really awesome and helped me get started.
>>723059279>any advise on how to write and proper and interesting plot?Read Nigga, READ!
>>723048517I've never had a "friend circle" or a "friend group"All of the friends that I had went full retard on me.>be "best friends" for 8+ years>play video games together all the time>suddenly a woman from another country starts playing with us>my friend of 8+ years changes his personality>becomes hostile to me, trying to impress the woman>I literally had a gf at that time, so I wasn't even interested in her>he breaks all contact with me shortlyAnother friend of 10+ years became an incel, and broke all contact with me because I got married and I don't really hate women.Honestly, my wife is the best and only friend I have right now, and I couldn't be happier
>Get married and start a family.I witnessed first-hand my brother getting married, having a child, finding out his wife is the local bicycle and has been cheating on him since Day 1, him being divorce raped in court, him slowly losing contact with his daughter, and still being dragged through the court system because his crazy ex-wife constantly files new charges against him, causing him to be literally bankrupt.I'd have to be insane, or in love, to get married. And my feelings never, not even once, have been reciprocated. All my relationships were with women I didn't care about, because only when I was an indifferent asshole were I popular with women, apparently.I'm 38 next month. I've given up. Maybe I'll meet her in the afterlife. All hope is gone.
>>723060529Definitely insane over a girl from abroad. I guess it's a classic story which played hundreds of times in mmo guilds as well. Do these retards even realise that the chance of getting to that woman is almost impossible?
>>723060637Don't put your dick in crazy.
>>723060637Most women are walking talking piles of garbage in 2025. I can get pussy easily but a serious gf? Fucking forget it.
>>723060637Become what you must. Become the passport bro of darkness.
older anons are attractive
>>723055412lol no it isn’tSex is the most overrated thing on earth
>>723062517nta but why would I want a literal nigger/SEA monkey gf? I have never seen an attractive filipino woman.
>>723060637>women ruin your life after taking your children from you>gay men are degenerate freaks that cant experience real love and will always act worse than any parody made of them>trannies are so mentally ill and insecure theyll ruin their own life over experiencing even a shred of happiness or comfort in themselves and those around themWhat are we supposed to do? Just die alone?
>>723062745>Just die alone?Yes.
>>723062745>What are we supposed to do?Delete the (((rascals))) that made society this way. Permanently.
>>723062723Are ye gay?
>>723062948Go ahead and post an attractive filipino woman, I'll be here for another hour before wageslaving.
>>723060529fuck off norman, you dont belong here
What's the appeal of energy drinks?
>>723060529>my wifefuck off normalnigger
>>723050083All those dudes in their 30s claiming that age is the reason their skills are declining were always shitters. It's just that now they have an excuse. Think about how few people even finish a particular game, let alone do it above easy or normal.
>>723062723Anon can't get a gf so I imagine he's not as picky as you. Someone who is not fat with a b-cup or higher that puts out 2-3 times a week and doesn't have a man face should be enough for any man. Bonuses are if she's got a fit ass and enjoys your hobbies. If anon is pickier than that he should stop complaining about foreveralone.
>>72304851736 hereLife sucks but I know it's my faultAt least I have vidya, food and a roof over my head
>>723064161I can't get a gf either and I would absolutely not ever want a fucking SEAmonkey, nigger, or chink. you would rather have a women you're not attracted to, with no tits or ass and a 5/10 face than no woman? nah, no woman is better at that point. you don't waste your time or money on one.Nobody has posted an attractive filipino woman yet either, but it's okay, because there are none.
>>723062654you've only had sex with fatties or starfish. Or you yourself or out of shape. Or there were 0 emotions involved.Any one of those things make for lukewarm sex any more than one make for bad sex.
>>723064296>b-cup is no titsthis is your brain on pornyour standards are too highyou aren't attractive enough in multiple ways to get what you actually wantyou can be foreveralone all you want and I respect the decision because it's better than being with someone you don't want and making both of you miserable but you have no right to complain about it out loud ever if your standards for any woman are beyond what I described
>>723048517LARPing underage twink.
>>723064591belongs to 30+ anons
>>723051904
>>723050612I remember when I finished HS got my first job and came to the grim realization I hate everybody and everyone thinks I'm a weirdoIt'll only get better if you lean into your weirdness and try to find like-minded people, you NEED to own it and accept you'll never be quite like others while also not having it destroy youMy mother father and brother still get pissed at how much of a freak I am but I laugh in their faces, despite this we hang out regularly and I generally enjoy their company despite not having much in common As for economy and hobbies and hopelessness and shit, yeah I feel the same way and have for years, but I can't kill myself so whatever
