real confessions

[@thewilleasley]

Real confession: I sometimes stress out because my girlfriend is way more succesful than me professionally. But than I grab her ass and eat the chocolate she brings me from her Swiss united nations conferences.

Dating a woman like that shows that you're very secure with yourself. As long as yall move as a unit and you're both happy together, fuck it! You know that saying like if you're the smartest person in the room then you're in the wrong room? and you should always surround yourself with people who're at a higher level than you at something so you can be influenced by them? I figure if anything she should be a source of inspiration, not insecurity. just gotta flip that perspective in your own head.

[j....soy.....]

The sick thing about not being the smartest guy in the room is that it don't matter when you got a TORADO BALL flying around your fucking head.....

[BraveUlysses]

I sent a dm on IG to Jake Johnson of myself doing a front wallie back 180. I just wanted to see if he'd say something back but he hasn't....yet.

I have a legit gambling problem.


I spent 6 weeks in the USA recently, and came home broke, I've been working 30 hours a week since September 2010, and literally had nothing to show for it, other then a bunch of product, a gut, and a great 6 week holiday in the USA. I started 2015 when about $500 in my savings account.

As of today I currently have $21,000 in my savings account.  All through putting on insane (not even my money, I have a credit card which has a limit of $11,700 which I use as a cash advance) bets, mainly sport. NHL/NBA. I get a great rush from doing it, and it's been highly addictive. The last week  or so I've gone a couple of days with out betting or only putting on small $10-$20 bets, but there are moments where I've been tempted to put on some serious money on what I think is a sure win (and trust me, nothing is ever a sure win)


a 24 year old,  living rent free with no real expenses, and disposable income can be quite dangerous.   I don't really keep it a secret, either, I openly admit to friends that I have a problem.  When I win, I'll gloat and tell my friends and show them a screen shot. The last few weeks, I've seen 2 of my friends starting to bet, not big money, just small money, but I don't want to be that type of negative influence, so I tell them not to do what I do, and they appear to have fun with it.

That's not a problem, that's a success story. Congrats.

For real dude, you stated the year with 500 and now have 21k? That's like half my salary and were not even three months in yet. You're killing it.

 Well, success is kind of subjective. Society's meaning of success is the professional success, because someone has to give you a goal to fight for and a reason to work your ass off to make someone richer(except yourself - meaning that you keep making the system working). Thats only one aspect of success in someones life, and sometimes when you are trapped in a job you that doesnt fullfil you it may be just disillusion, to keep you going. Its kind of sad when success is being defined socially and not personally.

[Bronson]

Dude, a year ago you were stressing out about losing your virginity and now you're nailing some chick who goes to UN conferences?

Bravo dude!

Thanks man. It happened pretty naturally and we have been together for almost six months. Its actually pretty incredible how it all turned out, funny how you (I) always find some new things to stress about.

True. And I love listening to her educate me everyday. She likes doing it too. But I want to be able give back to her, also. Emotionally, financially and fuckially. Ive read plenty of studies about how men feel threatened by their wives’ or girlfriends’ succes, which is ridiculous, but kinda makes sense, culturally. But than I think about what if she was a depressed couch potato who just watched Jersey Shore and complained about her life. I'd hate that.

I completely agree. But I am not really defining her professional succes on the grounds of how much money she is making for herself or anyone else. Its more about how her job exites her, how good she is at it and the fact that it goes along with her personal values and morals. She works as an environment law researcher for a public university. 

Have you seen this Ted-talk by Alain de Botton on the subject of success? You might enjoy it.

Whats wrong with drake?

Try to enjoy it man. Having the bills paid sure is nice! Make sure you're doing something to better yourself or your profession or hell even your skating. Just be happy that you like her and she likes you cause some people get together for the money and at least you got something real with her.

[Turtle Boy]

I'm listening the ILOVEMAKONNEN album because of the noisey documentaries about ATL trap scene. 

Some cool shit, the original version of Tuesday without Drake is better tho.

He should do more shit like the song Rumor:

I only make about $18,000 a year so I'm a bit jealous. I'm stoked to just win $20 at a casino.

[Numeral]

So exactly 3 days before my 1 year wedding anniversary I got fired...
what pisses me off is that the reason I got fired was because I requested a transfer to a different team, my old boss felt -=betrayed=- so instead of just letting me move on, he kicked me out. fucking bummer.

[BraveUlysses]

My brain feels numb a lot of times when people are talking to me or when I'm doing something, like I can't bring myself to care or process certain thoughts normally. I think it's depression. Also I wish I didn't spend all my teenage years trying to feel superior to others thru skateboarding and liking certain music while acting like I didn't care what affection feels like and other normal people stuff like that. The woman in my life who I've become really close with often sends cute texts or photos and sometimes I feel weird replying back with similar messages. It's like I have to remind myself that liking someone a lot isn't embarassing.

 Is it a skateboarder thing?

 I feel like skateboarding has made me very picky on choosing people that I like. Its kinda hard to explain it. My parents think that I only care about people that skate but thats not true. It is about the attitude and perspective of life mostly, that most skaters of my generation have. Some people that dont skate share the same attitude. I would say it is the misfit attitude. Most people are so boring and lame that I honestly feel bad for them.

i feel like skating definitely had some influence on my cool guy attitude when i was younger. like id go to parties and just stand in the corner with my hood on or my hat pulled down super low and my arms crossed and drink instead of going around and meeting new people. i just thought that "normal" people who listened to normal music and wore normal clothes and did normal things were lame, but as i got older i realized that i was just an asshole. most people are pretty decent, even if they buy their clothes at the mall and listen to journey.

like tufty said, its kind of hard to explain how skating influences that kind of attitude, but skating has always been my biggest influence in just about every aspect of my life.

[Useful Idiot]

I think the reason why i have been drinking a lot this month was because my dog passed away this time last year. I mean i didn't think about it but it just makes sense to me. Damn i miss that dog

I feel you man. My dog passed away a couple years ago. I miss that little fucker everyday. Strangely enough, his name was Toby...

[tobey]

I think my dad is coming down with alzheimers. He's getting pretty old, hes turning 60 this year, and his mom had it towards the end. Now im not to sure if he is coming down with it i mean he always has to write shit down to remember stuff, like i have to do. But this past week he seems like hes losing it. He forgot his favorite pizza place's name and its the only pizza place he goes to, he also called my sister by accident when he was trying to call my mother, he also forgot to wake me up for class today ( i have an alarm but it didn't wake me up and hes home from his school cause of spring break) and he just asked me what day it is, he never asked me what the day is. Probably just a bad week for him but still got me wondering

[perverted super otaku!]

Think I might be hooked on the "Asians Gone Wild" reddit. I have GOT to bang an Asian girl to get over this I think.

So they've taken the motions to insult the dog's good name by calling me by it then? Make some sense already!

I've felt this pain before.

In a vain way, I'm happy my gf is part Japanese. Asian girls are incredibly attractive.

[Useful Idiot]

My GF is half Asian. Her 70yr old mom looks like a goddamn sherpa.

It is. Learn a few lines, ask them to help you speak Japanese or whatever thy speak. Here is a tip, find a female friend who is of their nationality an get her to to get her number for you. It works Our thoughts become our reality, so believe you can & you will. As soon as I get my new place, I'm picking up this big ass Dominican milf from McDonalds. She gave me the eye & we flirted, she speaks English so so.
