I dunno if this is an old man thing or I’m just becoming more and more anti-social. I don’t hang out with people much anymore ‘cause everything they wanna do seems like a pointless waste of time and money. eat out? nah. I’d rather eat at home. go to a bar? nah. I’d rather drink at home. go to a movie, concert, barbecue, sports game, cafe, etc.? nah. I’d rather skate or chill at home and read or play guitar. if any of my friends were serious about playing music and writing songs I’d do that but they just wanna half-ass it and use it as an excuse to hang out. fuck that. I’m sick of passive consumption and stupid fun at this point in my life. I wanna spend my time doing something. it’s hard to find people who wanna do something.
You just gave me a lot of ammo, my friend.
About mindless consumption.
I live in a brand new appartment building and work in an office. The amount of stupid bullshit people buy is beyond insane. Total typical middle class psychosis, it's all about the newest shit.
You can't just buy a phone, it has to be the latest iPhone, you have to have tons of shit on your balcony. As I said, the building is brand new and people still modify and buy stupid shit for the interior. When working out at the company's gym, nothing but brand shit.
About people not doing anything.
As many of people on here know, I'm an ex-addict, so going to after work is not in my interest at all. So when I say that I have to train/play a poker tournament/whatever, they always tell me how "boring" I am. I mean, I have tons of interests that involve actually doing something and grinding to become better at it. These cunts just sit around a table and get fat on all the shitty food and beer. When I ask if somebody wants to do something, that involves actually doing something, no interest.
Yeah, not doing very well here...
