30+ Thread

>When do y'all plan to kill yourselves?
>suicide
lol thats a faggy way to go, if it gets real bad im gunna go deep into the woods and see if hunger will be a big enough motivator to survive, if not nature will decide what my fate will be

If it gets real bad you won't want to do any of that shit though

If it's not IRC or Discord, I'll pass. Don't try to be too much of a special snowflake, use something that works.

You don't really need to go to the woods to starve.

I literally have no idea what I'm doing guys. I'm 30, have no qualifications or skills (including social), I'm unhealthy, can't even leave the house to buy toilet paper without having a small panic attack, spend all day everyday on the internet. I have a couple thousand in savings, I'm thinking of spending it on some cheap flights somewhere, try and 'find' myself or some shit. (sounds lame but I have no interests or motivations in anything really so it's not like i'm gonna get my act together staying here, UK.)
HELP. WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO.

Use IRC (not that I am gonna participate) but why would you use Discord?
Have entered that hell once, it was all colorful, overloaded, simply eye cancer.

>but why would you use Discord?
Cos it's quick and easy?

Where in the UK? I'm in London.

Bumop 445

Theres a discord for 25+ already. Feel free to join

>taHBuu

I'll take a look, but it should be a shifting age limit.

People who are 25, 26, i.e. people after 91, are just elder zoomers.

its not just about starving. there is a difference between being stuck in the woods and having to unfuck my shit and go beat a deer over the head with a rock if i want to survive, and not eating at home because i have the weepies then eventually giving up and going to mcdonalds.

What does your relationship with your parents look like when you're 30+?
I'm almost 30 and I am struggling a lot with my parental relationships. Please share your knowledge.

i moved out when i was 23 and our relationship was really shitty then. now they are super nice to me and are constantly trying to get my attention.

>there's a girl who loves me
this is the only thing i want in life, there is no amount of bullshit i couldn't put up with if there was someone who genuinely loved me

So from your experience distancing yourself from your parents is the meta?

>someone who genuinely loved me
>genuinely
That's the hard part for women. Their love seems to be conditional on the status that you can bring them. Once she can't show you off to their friends, it's game over. Then it will turn out that she never really loved you, that you were manipulating her the whole time and SHE is the victim

Yeah, it fixed most of my problems with them. I can never forgive my mom for all the shit she gave me growing up but she is as nice as I suppose she can stomach being whenever I'm around now and the rest of the family even says her attitude does a 180 when I'm present. I was always on okay terms with my dad and sometimes we do stuff together now like go fishing.
idk man, i just want to find a girl that is introverted like i am. even if things implode and my life somehow gets even worse because of it at least i'd get to experience a romantic relationship at least once. even if it was only for a little while at least i'd die knowing i got to feel that way at least once and not feel completely broken.

>also considering joining the military

i think i should just join the army and be forced into a consistent structured lifestyle with a steady paycheck provided by the taxpayers. i feel like regardless of what civilian job i would get, my life would just be going to work and then coming home to boredom and loneliness

To be fair, men's love is conditional on the sex you can bring them though. I dont' want to be in a sexless relationship with a girl, no matter how cute she is

bump FPU for quake

28 yr old checkin in.

Not quite 30 yet, but I have more in common with you boomers than I do these millenial faggots

Yeah, it fixed most of my problems with them.

It's so weird, my whole identity is built on top of my parents it seems. I'm having a really hard time creating an independent identity for myself.
Did you have that problem?

>Did you have that problem?
Maybe I'm misinterpreting what you said, but no I don't think so. They tried to semi-successfully force me into being the person they wanted but I really hated like playing sports and going to college, which ultimately fell flat on its face and exploded into a bunch of misery and drama. I never really saw eye to eye with them. Just find something that is comfortable for you and work your way up from there. I could maybe offer more advice if you were more specific.

The identity I have built for myself is pretty shit though, obviously. I'm more than self-sufficient, but suddenly I care about never having a girl care about me and it hit me like a brick shithouse. Feels like someone lit a fire in my head. Haven't felt like this since high school and its way worse than it was then. I'm fucking losing it. Its been going on non-stop for days, can barely eat or sleep, can't focus at all. Feel like I need to do something crazy reckless to completely change my current trajectory but I don't know what will actually bring me closer to what I want and I'm not so sure I even want to this feeling to stop.

>Feel like I need to do something crazy reckless to completely change my current trajectory
That thought has crossed my mind as well, I mean, what do I have to lose at this point besides my parents being disappointed in me?

>They tried to semi-successfully force me into being the person they wanted

I see. My parents never forced me to do anything so I ended up building an identy as "their kid". I don't know if that makes sense to you.
Now I'm getting older and that identity is becoming unsustainable and I'm starting to realize I am almost nothing without them. It blows. I'm trying to learn, but I don't know how to do anything.
I was just wondering how long this will last.

It has the same problem that the 25+ thread has, with under 25s joining in with elder zoomers.

The older you get, the younger you like.

>I see. My parents never forced me to do anything so I ended up building an identy as "their kid". I don't know if that makes sense to you.
Yeah, that makes sense.
>I'm starting to realize I am almost nothing without them. It blows. I'm trying to learn, but I don't know how to do anything.
It took me 3 years of living alone just to start teaching myself how to cook instead of rotting the shit out of my insides with take out and lunch meat all the time lol. You have infinite information at your finger tips, you can do pretty much anything if you are motivated to do it. How bad is it? Are you employed at least?

Can someone please explain to me why the exploding knees meme was funny?

I look at it now and think, this sucks. Which also makes me think maybe the old days were never good.

I am unsure if that makes me feel better or worse.

Why the fuck do you all seem to want a discord/IRC/some other tool when WE HAVE A CHAT FORUM RIGHT HERE?

Are you all that fucking dumb?

Cos it's a transient one you dumb fuck?

Then make another thread. Wow, so fucking hard.

I'm turning 41 in a couple days, feels strange. I might go on vacation somewhere in Asia to see if I find a green card girlfriend. Just kidding but its a fun and depressing though.

there was a thread about advice from 30+ that turned out to be pretty decent. got any life lessons to share?

That was one of the shittest discords I've ever been on, with the lowest thresholds on what constitutes 25. I'm glad that 30+ threads are more common now.

Why because nobody agreed with you on your subjective opinion? We had a 30 year old that thought your 29yr ass was delusional.

>24yo not allowed in 25+ discord
>is 29yo and wants a 30+ exclusive chat

is it difficult being a bitter twat?

>can't retreat into full NEETdom because there's a girl who loves me and hasn't given up on me yet
Fuck you you fucking normscum nigger.

>How bad is it? Are you employed at least?

Nope, I never had a job. I'm also completely shit at not being a nuisance to others, except to my family when I hang out with my many cousins and their long term bfs or childhood friends that are my parent's friend's kids.
I really want to learn to socialize and connect with different people, but I'm starting to think it might be too late for me, I really hate my life right now.

Bullshit. Women get love without giving sex all the time. See: orbiters, twitch whores, etc.

hit the gym and take steroids. I'm not fucking joking.

That's not love user

im 3 years old

>Nope, I never had a job.
That is the first thing you need to fix. Can you ask your family for help finding a job? If you are over 30 the best way to get into it now is probably connections, take any job you can get even if it pays like shit and sucks. Hell, even if its just side work you can't put on a resume. Just get your foot in the door and work like a goddamn madman.
>I really want to learn to socialize and connect with different people, but I'm starting to think it might be too late for me
Normalfag stuff is extremely vapid and shallow, its never too late to get into that if that's is what you really want. Its all really alien and offensive feeling to me though, I don't know if you'll run into that problem. Some people over the years have offered to take me along on outings with girls and stuff, but everyone I seem to become pseudo-friends with is always some outgoing person that likes all sort of normalfag stuff like drugs and partying and so do their friends so I stay away. But if you put yourself out there you will get opportunities. It will happen.

>take steroids
i don't even know where to start

31 and i feel like killing my self. No job for about 8yrs.

lots more acknowledgment of who you are as a person so mine dont ride me about things like they use to. weirdly starting to worry about my folks now like im the supervisor

how do you get a job working from home?

It's like you don't want to understand difference of what year you born in can make.

That fucking 24 yo is part of the social media driven, "geek is cool" generation.
The fact they didn't take any advantage of that despite being given all the tools and opportunities means the blame falls entirely on them unless they're severely retarded living in a small town with no internet. With so many more avenues to meet people, learn things, make money etc. Meetups, cons, youtube instructionals on almost everything, communities based on the most niche and bizarre things. He fucked himself.

>inb4 fake geeks

Right, right, it's not that the new generation of geeks just have social skills as well as a deep interest in their chosen hobby, it's that they're all fake. Faggot.

>24yo not allowed in 25+ discord
>is 29yo and wants a 30+ exclusive chat

At 24 people have a chance to turn things round, there's a big fucking difference between 24 and 25 when people's view of you becomes cemented. From 29 to 30 it's just another year.

>Why because nobody agreed with you on your subjective opinion?
Literally when I tried to clarify my point you guys just kept spamming the chat so I couldn't answer.

Whatever fuck your server.

Jow Forums and Jow Forumssteroids on Leddit.

>He fucked himself.
are you really 29 years old and have not realized its your fault you are alone yet

you are a millenial, faggot.

I'm not him and I'd argue that doesn't really correlate accordingly to people of different nationalities since different countries, different sociocultural environments.

Whats everyones favourite year for gaming?

faggot i hate these meme I'm 31 and I still think at least up until like 2014 they were making okay games but damn its been fucking dog shit for a looooong ass time. Not sure how gen z deals with this stuff. Is the biggest game they like minecraft, pubg, and that other free game?

That fucker at #2 on the blacklist in NFSU2 in his Benz always smoked me. Never got past him.

bitch, plz
all people talked about was lol

most hyped for a game before this was MKII

>engage in more transience if you have a problem with transience, retard! XD

in 2014? csgo is still pretty good couple other games came out that were pretty good too.

>i hate these meme
What meme are you on about you stupid cunt? I asked a fucking question about what was your favourite, and posted my answer. Go fuck your self you Mong.

>Never got past him
I had an action replay demo disk from one of those cheat magazines, and loaded up the cheat to unlock everything every time I played this game.

the
>gaming is shit since $year
meme

Just the current year meme the 30yr old boomer only plays quake or whatever. Seriously though games objectively haven't been very good at all unless you really like indie pixel whatever games. I just played deus ex mankind divided and the story was absolutely ass but the gameplay was fun enough for me to finish it but it wasn't worth $60 starting out at all. gaming is pretty much dead E3 showed really nothing at all. The games that have been really great this are just remakes crash bandicoot m,spyro, and Shenmue I & II. I think yakuza 0 was pretty good too

Convince her it's more important to save for retirement. Because it is.

>gaming is shit since $year
Where the fuck did I say that you doublenigger

>hurr nigger faggot kikes lmao rekt xD

Who let the child into the 30+ thread?

good question user, thanks for bringing it up.

What have you guys been listening to lately?

Been digging this Plastic Love cover, and it's making me have this false nostalgia. Might just miss Japan a bit.

youtube.com/watch?v=s5HIJRM_0hE

>False nostalgia
Term of the era, I've noticed kids these days being nostalgic for shit they weren't even alive for.

that has been happening since there were things to be nostalgic about user
see also:
>kids these don't appreciate what they have! why, back in my day...
kind of shit that people have been saying ever since kids started being born.

t. 43

Infatuation isn't love, lad.

Yeah, but they're also nostalgic about things that happened last tuesday.

yeah? what do you expect from a "culture" that idolizes and promotes constant new stimulation and trends?
last tuesday may as well be last decade for most of them.

what reasonably paid jobs can I get that don't require me to work literally all the time? every time it's "lol btw we expect you here 12 hours a day but not officially wink wink"

How do you know that a woman is into you and isn't just being "nice"?

It's a bit too late to learn now. I mean that's what your teens and early 20s are for.

if she lets you put your penis in her vagina, she's into you

Part time package handler
4 to 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, pays 13 bux an hour

I don't have that problem because they're never nice to me either.

Actually the only nice women that acknowledge my existence and treat me like a fellow human being are middle aged black women, it's pretty funny.

Thank you based black women

Can I join in? I'm almost 23 but way more mature then my peers. I'm not like the other zoomers teehee.
