>Do you remember the printer guy?

Who could forget that? Goon that carried a printer all the way to a girl's house because he thought he could get laid that way.

Printer Goon
Part 1:
>A loose female acquaintance of mine calls me at 1:00am today and asks me if I could print something on the computer for her and bring it over in the afternoon. "Hey yeah sure sure, whatever you need I'll help you, I'm all yours," I tell her. She sends me this file and lo and behold I can't open it. It's made in Microsoft Publisher and I don't have that program so I begin panicing, trying to find this program or a way to print the file. Scouring the internet yields no results and I do my usual pacing in my room.

>I finally come up with an idea and I tell the girl, if I can proceed with it. The plan was I would carry my printer about 2miles to her house, print out the needed pages, maybe talk to her a bit while I was there. I was hoping for at least a hug out of this ordeal.

>By the time I get there, I'm wet all over from sweating in the +90 degree heat outside and carrying a heavy motherfucking HP Deskjet printer. The first thing I see upon entering her room (my first time in a girl's bedroom) are some panties on her bed.

Part 2:
>After the initial shock of seeing such a horrific sight for the first time, I setup the printer and get my job done. However, I did consider sniffing the lingere when she left the room once, but with the wuss that I am, I just ended up staring at them the whole while. That was a sarcastic joke for those of you too stupid to realize that

>To make a long story short, just as I was finishing up with the printing job (which was hefty), her boyfriend and his gay friend walk in, say hello, and begin hanging out in the room as they waited for the girl to finish this work so they could go to the mall.

>This effectively ruins my chances of getting a hug and I walk another 2 miles home with the motherfucking printer in hand. The only thing that I got out of this were some very painful fingers and a "thanks" as I walked out her bedroom door.
>So, am I pathetic for doing all these things? It wouldn't be the first time I've pledged my heart and soul to a girl and gotten back almost nothing in return. I would hate turning her or anyone else I knew down or making up some lie.

>I carried a printer all the way to her house. She is obligated to date me! Reeeeeeee

She wants to try again but honestly Im completely over this shit now and dont think I should give her another chance.

You should give her another chance. If she actually didn't like you she wouldn't keep rescheduling it. She would have just said "maybe some time in the future" or something. She probably just has a lot to do. You miss 100% of shots you don't take.

where all of the over 25 robots

Niggas have been saying this since the 90s. I realised that if 90s golden era boom-bap had continued for another 20 years it would have got stale long before now, it even sounds lame when premo and pete rock make new beats trying to cling on to that sound

I'm trying to work on my skills I learned in trade school and apply them at work so I can start making some real money instead of what is essentially minimum wage for factory workers. Only problem is management at shop level.

But it's true now. Rappers don't even have to form words these days, just mumble something and add a beat to it.

Well if you bothered looking, you would see that there are plenty of lyrical MCs out there, DOOM just dropped a record with Czarface for example. But guess what, sometimes it gets BORING listening to clever wordy raps constantly because rappers have been doing that for decades now. Its like the late 90s when the dusty hardcore timbs-n-hoods rap died off and was replaced by the shiny, jiggy more commercial LOX and Ruff Ryders sound. It sounded fresh and was quite fun to listen to at the time.

These mumble rappers came with a new style, the kids dig it, and so its the fashion now. No doubt it will be replaced by something else in a few years.

Honestly just fucking kill me. Just stay a fucking virgin. Just stay single.

I want how this relationship is to be over, and honestly I don't even know if I want to be with her anymore at all. I've basically told her lose weight or we're done and she "is serious this time" for about the 100th time. I wish I didn't love her so I could just fucking break up with her. I love her, but I'm not in love with her anymore. I don't even find her attractive and I'm honestly kind of grossed out by her.

Post-Yeezus hip hop is garbage, and even that is pushing it. All the good rappers got rich and the up and comers get boosted by already rich producers, so the need to give a shit about bars or soul on a record is now nonexistent.

>welding

Move to a coastal state, welding jobs there are in demand and high-paying. If you can stand it, once you have a few years' experience and are a decent welder, look into spending a summer in Alaska - some guys make six figures working all day every day for just a few months, and then spend the rest of the year wealthy and carefree.

Fab shops also aren't where the money is, if you're trying to get shekels you'll probably want to be doing open-site somewhere, or something in the petroleum/coal/renewables industry. There might also be a lot of money for a welder in the mining scene. But shopwork is shopwork, I've never heard of a shopworker no matter how skilled or what trade who makes good money for where he lives.

You were right. "Not ready to date" means "I'm too polite to tell you, but I'm really just hopping on Chad's cock every night and don't care about you at all."

Also, leave the fat chick. She's dragging you down and you can get better than that. It's ok to be single, to get good gf you must not be actively seeking gf. Actively seeking gf finds you a desperate, forced relationship that you'll both regret.

I think it's cos all this mumble is low effort and autotuned to hell and back, so everyone can do it. I don't think many of them can freestyle without a backing track.

What's your major and are you a soyboy? If you're into being an officecuck, might try switching to a woman-tier major like English or History. Many white-collar jobs, maybe in the 20k-45k pay range, really don't give a shit what your degree is but require you to have one.

Taking a year or two off is ok, too. You might want to move to a new city, or even stay in the one you're in, and work a fulltime job for shit pay for a year or two. I think American "highschool --> university" culture is a little silly, because teenagers and young adults who have never held a fulltime job for the purpose of fully sustaining themselves financially (not just working part-time at McShits for pizza money) don't have enough life experience to make an intelligent decision like a university major.

Just belieb in yourself and everything will be fine. I'm 25 trust me it will work.

I work with cool people but I am skeptical about going out on weekends frequently with these people as it could ruin job relationships. That would be an option. Going out with my real friends would mean their wives would come which isn't really cool. I don't dislike them but if I want to be loud and then stagger home drunk or go to a strip club that can't happen

motivation is a meme. just fucking do what you have to do. if your brain tells you it doesn't feel like doing anything then just tell it to go fuck a cactus and swim in a pool of acid.

you can make friends literally anywhere. you just have to be outside your house/room.

you can fix your awkwardness by going out more or getting professional help

>dickhead

"Believe in yourself" and "Be yourself" memes are actually useful when you are young.

Why are normalfags completely incapable of any sort of empathy while simultaneously being absolutely unable to shut the fuck up about things they don't even remotely understand anything about?

Only if you want to create broken huskmen with no future prospects.

>dickhead
No, me trying to fit into crowds that I didn't belong and not having any confidence in myself fucked me over in the long term. An hero dogfucker, don't drag other people down with you.

Mine may be soon. I'm so tired, but I know my mom and dad will be crushed but should I really keep suffering for years more?

t. normalfag nigger

>be yourself is bad
If I actually went to cons and nerds gathering before it was cool I probably would have had friends. Being fake is worse, people can smell it a mile off.

Will probably just be some dumb solution that will mostly help the female population. There's already pushes that there are way more depressed women then men and how "we" (as a society) need to solve that.
Men dropping out is promoted as a minor issue and the solution is that men should man up and start being less unhappy and contribute to society :^)

>t. normalfag nigger
I wish. Kill youself though.

You are litterly kidding right now I hope.

Not even a little bit. Spent most of my life in fear and doubt.

>contribute to society

Men need motivation in the form of wives to do this to be honest. Otherwise men are just selfish. Women should pair with men as they are growing and push them to be better, not only want to get with them when they reach the top.

Society already doesn't care. Suicide doesn't seem to be understood very well, so people can't wrap their minds around it

How the fuck is being yourself good advice? I still don't get it.

>If this is true, when do you think it's going to happen?

I'd say around the end of the 10s when a bunch of them start reaching 30.

>Will society at large even notice or care?
I don't know, I don't think they'll know how to react because there won't be a clear-cut explanation.

Right now I'm your unwanted future. A friendless virgin dropout on a dead end job for 10 years with no savings. Go and fix your shit while you still have time.

I'm trying to fix what is fixable. Every time I succeed I'm reminded of how easy it would have been had I done it at the proper time.

I'm sorry but it just is the way it is, it really doesn't matter if I have empathy or not or if I am a normie or not.

I have learned the hard way that "I have no motivation" is simply not acceptable to the world. If your boss tells you (reasonably) to do "X" and you won't do because you are not "motivated" then you are out.

If you just lost someone or something significant, it is ok to be depressed for a while, but you HAVE to go back to the world afterwards.

What happens when an animal is too depressed to do what he needs to do (hunt, defend itself)? He dies. Period.

When you are old there is nobody to take care of you. Getting a gf doesn't change this. Your wife/husband can only do that partially - they have to take care of themselves too after all. Nobody is going to put bread on your table, government might give you some tickets now but there's no warranty you'll receive them tomorrow. Crises happen, policies change.

When you are 25+ you can only rely on yourself to survive. Help won't come to you unless it's a miracle but those are rare. If you need help, YOU GO AND GET IT. Do what it takes.

The advice is useless at our age.

What was once seen as naive and sweet is now seen as pathetic and sad.

Literally not even a single word you have said in the entire thread has been even remotely truthful. Your ilk should be banned on sight instead of being left to ruin the board like that.

Whatever floats your boat, mate.
Cheers.
