Silly! Why do we need to talk about what we want to read when ultimately we will read what we are supposed to read. Even though are will is free, freedom is not free. It must be won by slurping frappachinos and writing fan fics which I am ultimately going to write because I will choose to right them. That is the beauty of consciousness, it affects but is not affected, of course, if you wish to expand your consciousness then you must devote yourself to works of Paul Coello, Eckert Tolle, and John Green. Praise J.K. Rowling.
I know people who travel a lot but can't pass past a bum searching the trash in their own city without being emotionally altered

Ok. You're projecting hard, but wouldn't accept any kind of counter-argument.
So what do you see as a fulfilling life, frogposter? Being a NEET and insulating yourself from human contact as much as possible? /r9k/'s bitter misanthropy honestly saddens me. It's the same mentality I had when I was a suicidal freshman in high school.

The years of youth collectively wasted by our NEET underclass is truly staggering. Future generations will look back on them and sigh heavily.

Phenomenologically speaking, your conception of NEETness lies within your representation, ergo, NEETness is a part of you. To contain is partially be, ergo, a NEET is within you. The NEET within is a transference derived from your a posteriori knowledge, ergo, to know a NEET is to have been acquainted with the concept. To form the gestalt concept one must form a picture drawn from ideas, such as how a picture on a computer screen is the result of pixels. This concept, NEETness, is a derivative of an internal constellation, which is based on a posteriori fixations. These fixations are a complex, that complex is a part of your character, and your character is a part of you. Ergo, you are *sniff* a NEET.
