is anyone else here pissed off that they never got to go on a life adventure? something like in video games or anime where you just take off with friends and crash in towns and camping out and shit and seeing the world. you could like learn to cook yourself having fires by a tent and shit and meet new people.
it just sucks because in real life there's only jobs and shit. thtere's not really like walking around with a big ass sword and have a mage behind you and shit. it's more like just trying to get a job and build up as much comfort as you can where you are now and just try to have sex. thats it.
Yeah I used to read adventure type books as a kid now. I just play video games. I love those CYOA posts but we know reality is dumb

I am travelling right now tbqh. I'd say from a purely hedonistic standpoint playing videogames alone was about as good. most of the other travellers are the most disgusting normalfags and I can't really have any meaningful conversation with the locals. I see where you are coming from though. reality is never as good as fiction. its the ultimate reason why life is trash.
Joseph Adams
i keep playing mmos and normal rpgs and i keep raging thinking about it. me and my friends all wanted to escape my shitty town but we never did it we always talked about getting campers and vans and shit like that and just hitting the road but then it became how should we shit and shower, we'd be stuck together, gas would cost a fortune, what happened if it broke down etc
it sucks because my friend is on neetbux and i also have money coming in and we both talk about it all the time
Wyatt Foster
how do you travel? everything i look up that just rents monthly is booked up like airbnb and shit and all the rooms for rent the dates are scattered all over the calender
i've tried renting off craigslist and people just wanna do interviews and check all the shit out before you can just pay and crash there. motels are like 100 or 200 bucks a night and it costs even more to just check in randomly and shit

Isaiah Turner
Sometimes we (me and my friends) travel 20km away from our town with train in some random direction and then try to come back without using map while being drunk. It's really fun.

You just need to lower your standards for what you perceive as an adventure. Life is never going to be a video game. Ever been on a vacation? Adventure. Ever picked up a new hobby or mastered a skill? Adventure. Ever walked a dog to a new location or spot? Adventure. If you like video games, ever been to a cosplay thingy or a convention? Adventure. Ever talked to someone new? Adventure. Ever stepped out of your comfort zone? Adventure. I used to think the same thing as you. Used to be a NEET too. Ended up hitchhiking halfway across the country for an adventure. It's exciting, and it's certainly a thing to do once in your life. Next time I'll do a road trip, but you just can't live like that, it's a vacation not a lifestyle. So the key is to try and find enjoyment in the little things that could be seen as an adventure. My uncle told me the same thing when I was little and I thought he was a stooge for thinking it. Then he died, and it was too late for me to tell him he was right.
I joined the military and got to see some pacific countries which was cool but being stuck with military sucked 90% the fun out of it. I want to try study abroad. I'm sure you guys could get some sort of grant or scholarships and go to college then study abroad
Justin Reed
that sounds fun is it mostly countryside or woods or are in still in a city?
Evan Davis
I just hop from hostel to hostel for the exact reasons you mentioned. its by far the most uncomplicated way to travel, plus I can leave whenever I want as opposed to renting a flat which often have minimum stay periods. you get used to staying in a room with other people very quickly. most of them are out all day anyway (the normalfucks) and the people who stay are usually hungover or introverts like myself. also hostels are very cheap so I dont have to work often.
Jace Williams
I do that but by myself I pretty much explored whole county Wish i had money to go further, there is nothing interesting like mountains or lakes here. Just fields and occasional forests. I spend most of the time on the road with my trusty walking stick. Would post some comfy forest canyons but size limit is kill
ma7ybe when we an hero we will... like ..... go on anime adventures,
Hug me anons.. hug me man.
Parker Gray
we both know thats not going to happen just live vicariously through anime/games
Juan Hall
if shit like this actually existed 98% of you would either be the boring background villagers the chad hero passes by on his adventure at best or some nameless loser who was massacred to build up the newest arc's villain at worst
James Rodriguez
modern day shows have losers as MC because thats whats relatable. the chad is usually the rival or frienemy. I would be the best friend who doesn't get any girls but is loyal to the MC
Owen Lopez
Vidya is not fun anymore, and im a guy who was #1 in BF1 for kills and best inm y
I've hike-in camped, backpacked through Europe, and other such stuff. bf just got done with a park maintenance job and is driving up the coast before coming home. You can do this kind of stuff if you really want to, assuming you're not NEET or an abused estadounidense.
Austin Cook
I used to go with an uncle on road trips as a kid. It was nice going around, eating by roadside bars, seeing natural views and so on.
Henry Carter
Also did lots of fun stuff with mom as a kid. Had a tasty meal cooked in boiled river water once. It was great. Sometimes found old fun trails by accident instead of boring new safe trails. Y'all won't even explore your own backyard but are eager to spend the rest of your life in a prison colony on Mars, baka.
Blake Davis
adventure or RPG type games my guy never played MMOs but maybe those too books are cool too
Anthony Brooks
>assuming you're not NEET or an abused estadounidense.
So assuming your not a robot,..... some real feelz user

We will never be kids again. We will never be happy
We will never start again, we will never meet stacy because our brains are fucked.
I tried skyrim and ... it made me feel nothing just like sad. At the time I felt like , I was just over rpg because I loved oblivion but truth is that I just have no joy in life.
Anons when we an hero lets hope we meet up and be frens fuck ZI hate living, I been drinking rum all night.
Yeah I'm pissed that I wasted my youth posting on a Chilean stamp collecting board instead of going out into the world. College was the biggest mistake of my life.
Colton Murphy
oh i'm sorry I hope you find something my guy drinking with no joy is sad
Ian Jackson
My bf gets to be like a kid on his days out with me. I put a bit of effort into planning fun activities :-)
Isaac Torres
i just drink because it makes me feel unlike myself.
there is never any joy but chatting to robos on discord and 4chin makes life livable.
you are a good femanon...please dont be a roastie to him
I think one should drink to enjoy himself/herself almost enhance the situation/event I understand drinking when down sometimes I just don't want anyone to become a upset depressed drunkard it makes me sad
Dylan Butler
Alcohol is a carcinogenic neurotoxin, and moderate consumption is not beneficial unless you count sick ex-drinkers as non-drinkers. There's nothing good in wine that isn't in grapes at greater concentration. Most of the polyphenols and such are in the skins which don't make it into the wine.

>Tfw 23 >Same life as when you finished high school
This REALLY sucks
Liam Morales
You can have that hippie lifestyle if you want to. Many people do. You probably aren't doing it because you're an autist.
As for other things (mages and shit), well that shit just aint reality so there's nothing to do. But you can still go live your days in tents and by fires and shit.
Wyatt Stewart
I drink when the suicidal thoughts become too much.....
Im already depressed fag, I depressed fag since I was six like I was diagnosed then.
I just want to be happy and I know I never will be so I drink, it makes me feel detached from myself.
user....does it get better, I get sick when I talk to people irl otehr than my mum and even then I feel mad anxious.
I only stay alive so I dont hurt my mum, when im online I try to escape real life and people call me a pedo for liking megumin and stuff and it makes me sad......
Yea alcohol is bad but it makes me feel good I've never been depressed I can't tell you if/when it gets better I can say you shouldn't listen to random opinions from random people oxymoron I know you know you and you should make friends who appreciate you
Wow good thing robot means "not going outside". There's another term for that you retard. Whatever, there's no point in defending the term robot. it has no meaning. but still no (you).
>Jow Forums has no topic, but unlike /b/ Global Rule #3 is in effect. In addition, advice threads and camwhoring/hookup/"rate me" threads should go on Jow Forums - Advice and /soc/ - Cams & Meetups respectively. I'm good I enjoy talking with anons here tho some complain about nothing like they are high schoolers which they probbly are they need to be purged off this website
Wow, some newfag read the rules and feels like he belongs, adorable.
Connor Murphy
I feel like under different conditions I could be the "adventuring" type, but with the world the way it is I just get defensive about everything and focus on securing my position in the face of instability.
Adam Sullivan
the real world is just a shitty open world with uncomfy survival mechanics, utterly broken social system and nothing to do other than trying to escape it
The trick is to stay so busy you don't have time to get existential.
Ryder Hernandez
>megu posted you baited me and I laughed did something get rereleased or added to crunchyroll?? Or is it just one guy suddenly posting Megumin everywhere?
Same dude. Even graduated uni. Even have been overseas and on a few trips. But most of my life has been sitting behind screens. And now that's all i do. Feelsbadman
James Scott
this post went from a life adventure to anime. Don't they all?
Jack Nelson
what kind of activities
Zachary Morales
I was also a depressed fag, still am due to our shitty brain structure. One thing that makes me feel genuinely happier is working out. It gets my blood pumping and every time I'm lifting on the gym I'm genuinely feeling more alive than any other time. That combined with getting into good shape, looking better, feeling better, and the anti-depressive effect of exercise all compounds. Plus I get to go outside and when I come home I feel good about relaxing. I'm thinking I will hit the gym every damn day from now on because days that I dont I start to feel depressed. Also try omega 3 supplements and vitamin D. Honestly work like drugs to make the depression ease up. Love you dude.
Aiden Robinson
I have been fit before strill felt hsit but I may try.
yeah I've thought this way as well. I'm still pretty restless, and i still totally think the 40 hour work week is ridiculous, esp in the 21st century.
but even with 40 hours i manage to get time off here and there. i planned plenty of weekend camping trips and stuff
honestly it sounds appealing to be constantly on the move, but then you realize the things you miss like showers, your favorite restaurants, routine, your favorite spot in the house to chill, cooking at home, things like that are immensely enjoyable parts of life as well. so i think the ideal life is a mix of being rooted in a place punctuated by periods of travel
Carter Russell
I think there is a misunderstanding but don't worry you keep your love of Megumin I'm not hating
In anime/comics/fantasy, they cut out boring parts and only show the drama. 100 years from now, people will be LARPing 2018. Also, my favorite aspect of fantasy is world building. Fantasy world's don't compare to the real one, in terms of their detail, logical cohesion, or exotic-ness
> in real life there's only jobs and shit In anime/comics their job is warrior. This job still exists (enlist in the army, or something) >crash in towns and camping out and shit and seeing the world There are comfy jobs, that aren't military that involve seeing the world. Merchant is one of them >mage behind you and shit I'm a grad student, studying in a city far from my home. I pretend like I'm in 'exile' training to be a mage. Science is basically magic. Professions like Alchemy evolved into chemistry >it's more like just trying to get a job and build up as much comfort as you can where you are now and just try to have sex. This is one possible quest. However, this is like playing an RPG to horde items. For example, there are other possible quest. For example, I am looking for knowledge

figure what out? cilantro

Going without showers only feels gross when you've been keeping your sebacious glands overactive with frequent showering and failing to clean your butt. I usually go at least a week, and sometimes months. The downside is needing to use a towel as a pillowcase. I just washed one my technical shirts because it was getting smelly and the water was pretty dark. Having a shower today before I try out the stretchy headphone covers arriving tomorrow :-)
