You know, I've been on this forum for like, 18 years? I remember when Worf and Piccard were the new thing, but I can't say I really have any idea what it means. It's the equivalent of a laugh emoji to my brain, but you make it sound like a bad thing, so apparently I'm clueless. Do what makes you happy though
But man, the more I think about all this the more it makes me wonder how the fuck 90% of the world operates. I am easily the most successful person out of everyone I know from my past, like hands down no question. Almost everyone I know have lives that look like train wrecked into dumpster fires to me. I guess I have a few normal responsible friends who I've made as an adult, but its like everyone I grew up with just fucked something up in the "how things work" department and never bothered figuring out what.
Is this normal for everyone? Is it just that I grew up/live in a shitty little town full of idiots?
I know I have a forum rep as the "well intentioned dumbass who magically comes out of everything better off", and not saying that isn't deserved, I've fucked up plenty. I just try to learn from those fuck ups and do better. Why is that a thing people can't seem to get a grasp of? I'm sad seeing a girl I used to love and spent a couple of years with be a fucked up mess with a terrible looking life, or my friend still delivering pizza's 20+ years later, or my adult friends moving back in with their parents because they can't seem to hold a job at all. I'm also kind of angry at them for allowing their lives to turn out the way they did. It's really not that hard to come to the realization that life isn't fair, and most of the time tries to fuck you in one way or another - so what you have to do is find shit that makes you happy, avoid shit that doesn't, and you can pretty much coast on that. It just doesn't seem that hard.
Probably not the right thread for this, just ranting a little.
Back to kids fucking grown ups! >_<
