>I hate the outside world and I call people brainlets unironically
>I can't enjoy any other forms of comedy outside of Jow Forums even though it's not very funny to begin with

you only got the part about jerking it to 2d women right. try again sweetie

Also
>other forms of comedy outside of Jow Forums

do you ever think?

What matters is that you're honest user.
Jow Forums has had funny story threads before but ever sense 2015 they seem to have gone down hill for some reason

>be k

fair enough. heres a story.
I swing by my parents place to visit and see theyre on the couch watching big bang theory. Mom says, oh sweetie youre just like sheldon can you fix the printer. say bazginga. leave.

cute user. you're a real hoot

thanks.
Another time, my dad told me how hes happy I convinced them to get a dog because now that I'm gone they have someone to care for. They aren't the type to spam about grandkids, but theyre excited about me actually not being a total sperg and finding a girl.

Found girl. AMA.

the best jokes are jokes a small specific group can understand
jokes that 99% of the population can understand are often lame

you can feel connected to this small group and giggle and laugh together
that was what made Jow Forums fun and interesting in 2004, your little secret internet club with inside jokes, other people won't get

Well said. I've only been on g for a couple years now, but I remember some of the old memes from back in the day. It's wild to think there was a time where b was less than 90% porn

good for you user. Treat her well.

fair enough user. Normally personal stories is what I like from the angry point of view

Be me.
Look up mobo manual online for no good reason.
Look at schematics.
2 16x PCI-E ports.
Bottom one listed as PCIE3.
What the fuck? I've been using the wrong port this whole time?!
Open case, switch port, close case.
Great. Now I'll get more performance. What an idiot I've been.
Runs like shit. Reinstall drivers. Equally shit.
Look at manual again. Bottom port is labeled as PCIE3 because it's port number 3 on the board. 2.0, the one I've been using is 3.0.

Remember checking port speed not that long ago, GPU-Z. Everything was fine, running at 3.0. Feel like an idiot. Feel like a tool.

Go out drinking.

here's mine
>have job
>be recognized by coworkers as a good worker, technically speaking
>kinda tired of job after less than 2 years at it
>have dumb personal problem with coworker. coworker thinks I'm harassing her
>somehow bosses find out and ask me to not go back to the office for some months, offer me alternatives
>decline say alternatives, and after talking for some days, I decide to ask them to fire me
>do so after some drama
>have some potentially commercial ideas
>think I'll be able to do some shit by myself to make more money than what I made at said job
>barely do any shit for 2 months
>turns out I won't do shit if I don't have social pressure
>procrastinate a lot
>anxiety, laziness, depression
I should kill myself.
you can laugh at me now, OP

Not really sure where this is Jow Forums at all related tho user

aha, you are right, this could easily pass as a generic work story.
guess I'll explain anyway. I'm a programmer, and I thought I'd program some shit to keep my ass alive. turns out I can't, I lack balls for that, being a wage slave is more comfortable for me.

Don't push yourself too hard but always find a way to challenge yourself

I can relate. If I have a teammate that will do it early or no deadlines, I won't feel the pressure or need to work. Its not like im without passion, I just am hard to motivate.

>work with a two of ex-mapping guys.
>the one guy is giving the other directions to the christmas party
>they break out google maps
>I tell them to screw the map and follow a star
>they tell me they aren't wise men

ESRI has literally ruined the industry
