Welcome to the f&f tavern
Come one come all
The regular keep hasnt been around so I decided to open it up and hold down the fort.
Discuss feels or just come in for some cheeky banter and a pint
Normies arent allowed. Robo id is needed
Here's my ID sir.
Can I have some Hot Choclate if you have any? Water is fine if you don't have any. I feel bad today, I was just air drumming to some music and now I feel like a sperg, I had a rough day today and what better way to end it is to sperg out.

Here's a song for the jukebox.
Now watch me
WHIP
OHH WATCH ME WATCH ME
Rare wojak for ID as usual. I'll switch it up tonight, i'll take a new york sour.
>>24437036
You seem stressed out man. Why do you keep calling yourself a sperg. Thays a regular thing to do desu.
Hot coco
>>24437080
Requesting vocaroo if you got it lad. Ill give you a free drink
New york sour
>>24437092
How ya doin anon.
>>24437109
I don't know. I do it every night. Is it normal to air drum? I just don't know.
>>24437036
*shouts across from the tavern*
We don't take kindly to your kind around here"
>6'4 man who clearly lifts starts walking up.
You either going to git out or me and my boys are going to have to rough you up a bit kid.
>>24436927
>Normies arent allowed.
Barkeep, every time I've come in here the bar's been open to anyone who didn't try to destroy the place. That's the one unifying thing about these taverns, is there are no "No Normie/Fembot/Black/Wageslave/etc." signs on the doors.
My robot ID's the fact that I know how these threads work well enough that I know that your non-open-door policy is a sobering change. I've been on your side of the bar a few times, I welcomed all to my bar.
>>24437143
Not too bad everything considered. Had some homemade burgers, still have a leftover patty. It's about 60 degrees out, windows open, couldn't get any comfier if i tried.
>>24437158
I do it once in a while. If people think its weird theyre just no fun lad.
>>24437168
Sir this is for feels not violone. Im gonna have to ask you calm down or were gonna have to call the police. May I see your robot id
>>24437168
>6'4 man who clearly lifts
for you
>>24437168
Not surprising. I'm not looking for any trouble sir. I'll be on my way. Here's a feel for the coco. Keep the change. I'll see you lads later.
>>24437212
I don't have no robot id. I came here for a beer and want some damn service
>>24437230
>Pins you against the wall as you turn to walk out and licks your neck
Mmm you taste like a neckbeard
>>24437190
Im just following the last ones rules. Your id checks out sir. Care for a drink or discussion about feels
>>24437193
>60 degrees
It just snowed half a foot here. I wish I was in your weather
>>24436927
>tfw overheard my dad say that I am a huge disappointment
I don't even know what to do now. Should I tell him about me being diagnosed with Asperger's and a few other things? I feel like that would just make things worse.
>>24436927
Here is ID sir.
Seagrams fruit drink please.
Mostly just here to talk about no gf
>>24437230
>>24437253
sir the police have been contacted im gonna have to ask you to leave the bar
>>24437269
>the last ones
maybe I missed it, but the last F&F I went to, the barkeep made the thread and then abandoned it. I opened this thread hoping maybe the old spirit would come back.
I know the bartender can make his own rules, it just seems to run counter to the general feel of the bar. It's always, in the past, been a "we're all in this together" atmosphere, not the normie-robot "us against them" one.
"Normie" is such a user-defined phrase anyway, anywhere from "starting highschool quarterback four years running who lost his virginity at age 10" to "has ever, in his entire life, talked to a woman, including his own mother."
Call me triggered, this is just the first time I've seen "No [non-thread-disruptive thing] allowed" sign on the door. Medicate me as you will.
>>24437272
Well why would he say that. Need more details anon.
>>24437306
Heres your drink
>came to discuss no gf.
Came to the right place.
>>24437328
>drops the pitiful man
OR WHAT!?
>>24437365
Most time normies ignore the thread. I feel like the rule was made to make robots feel comfier. If you feel youre normie then feel free to discuss normie feels. Id love to hear what they worry about.
>>24437372
>Well why would he say that. Need more details anon.
I guess it's because I'm pretty far out from graduating college, even though I'm only 21. And I'm completely unable to make any friends or get a job on my own. I've only gotten jobs through his boss, but I am fairly financially successful from that. I fully own the house I'm living in right now. I just. I'm not sure. He didn't say it to me, but I was on the phone with my mother, and I heard him in a background say "anon is such a huge disappointment."
>Robo id is needed
I left my ID at home, can I just show you the texts I got back from a couple of acquaintances who said they wanted to do something with me but dipped out tonight?
True story, I'm not quite sad about it, but I'm starting to see a pattern of how hard it is to maintain a good social circle in your late twenties. Plus I'm just plain tired and would rather go to bed anyway.
I'm 26 and I'm not looking forward to how restrained people expect you to be once you approach your thirties. I don't see anything pleasant about growing older, I simply console myself by telling me it has happened to everyone who has ever lived.
Give me a pale lager mr. wojak, any pale lager.
>>24437378
Or theres gonna be a hole in your chest sir. Can your height stop a buckshot?
>>24437372
Thanks keep.
Sometimes I fall off the straight wagon and think I would bang just about anyone male or female. Just so I could cuddle someone at night. Have at least an hour of any form of intimate physical contact in life. You know?
>>24437444
Maybe he means by the fact that youre a loner or that he needed to help you get a job. Id say if your happy with who you are dont worry.
>>24437454
As people get older they get boring. They get a hivemind and only discuss taxes and football. What you needed instead of a hive is your wolfpack.
Pale Lager.
>>24437466
As a khv I kindve understand but not really. I seem to have more control over it but it still effects me. Anyone in particular.
>>24437461
>pulls out switchblade and pops it open
You're about to look like Swiss cheese when I'm done with you. Hmm...Chad's Drunken Tavern has a nice ring to it
>starts getting really close
>>24437578
It's mostly because I remember the pleasure from sex during those molestation years. Shit was pretty great. You don't know what you have till you lose it after all.
>>24437596
*busts a shot right in your chest*
Someone get the body outta here if theyd be so kind.
>>24437612
>being so deprived of contact you rejoice on molestation memories
Anon I think its time to quit the bar and try. Have you tried yet lad?
I'll take two of the usual m'good sir
>>24437680
Somewhat. I feel too weird when I talk to people in search of romance.
I get way too shaky and almost can't stand up when I talk to a QT, really light-headed. Not only that I got a statistically small dick. 3.5. So I ain't finding love easily either.
The cruel laughter that might occur would drive me over the edge.
>>24437416
Alright, well said. Hey, you're a good barkeep, sorry if I came across aggressive, I guess I'm wary of the memeposters hijacking it or trying to kill the idea.
I sometimes hang out with people and in the past my bemis has gone inside bagina, so many would call me a normie. I'm not drunk enough to talk, this is gonna be a sober night if I have my way, but I'll buy the poster below me a drink.
>>24437759
Fuck off weirdo
NOW WATCH ME BOP
BOP
BOP
BOP (BOPBOP)

>>24437709
>two of the usual
New keep lad. What would that be?
>>24437745
Just aim low lad theres someone wholl love you. Dont quit yet. Muhammes ali would talk to his dog everynight to get rid of his anxiety. Maybe thatll work. Or find a friend and rehearse.
>>24437759
>not drunk enough to talk
Well you came here for something other than a small complaint. Lets hear it.
>>24437709
maybe you should start off slow, maybe a 7 and 7
>>24437867
Sounds like a good strategy.
Lucky for me the one trait I got from Father was the Germanic will of never give up. Work hard.
>>24437906
Good lad thats the spirit. Remember. You come from a long bloodline. They did it through all the odds so can you.
>>24437867
Uh, y-you know. Just 2 of the usual
>>24437963
Im taking over
>tfw drank 7 beers
>feeling a decentish buzz
>not enough, it's never enough
>just poured some shots of bottom shelf vodka.
>>24438028
Im gonna give you this and assume your good. How you doing tonight mr mask man.
>>24438034
Im gonna have to ask you to clam down or leave
>>24438053
All that alchohal must have some feels behind it. Lets hear it.
>>24438117
There's no point. We're just ordinary boys lusting after ordinary girls in an ordinary world.
>>24438059
Y-you know... The usual.
>Taking EMR class for college
>We're learning how to put on/remove gloves (believe it or not it isn't as simple as you'd think)
>Getting assigned gloves
>Most of the class is made up of women hoping to be nurses and shit
>I'm going into the emergency responses field
>All the women wear these handlet little babby gloves
>The only other two guys in the class somehow fit these little gloves, too
>I can't fit them, I've got baseball glove hands
>Tell instructor I can't fit them, "That is ok anon, most guys can't." she says
>Women laugh for some reason, can't tell if this is at me for having big hands or at the other guys who have little woman hands
>Fast forward about a week, we get some 6'6" guy in class who is a total Chad, he transferred over from a night class
>He gets assigned the same size gloves I do
>No one laughs
WHAT THE FUCK REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>24438160
So it girl troubles eh. whats her name lad.
A whiskey on the rocks for me please.
I banged a real gross slutty girl who'd been after me for a while. It was fucking horrible, I couldn't even finish. I pretty much excused myself right afterwards.
I cried in my car a little when I realized that this trainwreck of a person was all I could attract.
>>24437867
>for something
I come here to pretend i have friends, and to go to a bar where I actually like the other patrons. Or at least, don't know them well enough to dislike them.
I don't really have much to talk about tonight, unless there are any cures for a cold, dull lack of motivation to improve my station and a dwindling bank account that isn't going up anytime soon since I quit my job.
>>24438175
They probably didnt want to roast his handlets.
>>24438167
Shut down any good isis accounts lately.
DUFF

NEXT FAG TO ROLEPLAY GETS SHOT
>>24438175
>He gets assigned the same size gloves I do
>No one laughs
They already laughed at it once. They're not going to laugh at it again, idiot.
>>24438180
There isn't a girl. That just seems to be the top if toe iceberg for most of us miserable fucks.
my rapper name is Little Dipper
>>24438175
anon she was making a joke about how most guys can't fit into their condoms
she's implying you have a big dick
not that she's into you, because then she probably wouldn't risk making a joke at your expense
>>24438175
also how the fuck do you not fit into the gloves, I too have huge hands and mine fit in just fine, you're talking about the basic EMT type gloves right? the ones that used to be latex and now are rubber or some shit? medic gloves, fuck
>>24438215
You-you know, the usual.
>>24438194
Everyone does something they aint proud of. Its how you recover from it that matters
>>24438206
>pretend like you have friends
Why so friendless
>lack of motivation to improve my station
>lost job
Care to explain a little more
>>24438229
If girl plz be in wisconsin
If guy lets hear somethin.
>>24438225
Different people want different things. What do you want anon.
>>24438312 i like you.
Youre quiet and always say the right thing.
>>24438281
The gloves are "One size fits all" or something, they are latex and blue. But she told me most guys can't fit them, and most women can fit them perfectly. I had to go up to bigger ones, my gloves and Chad's gloves are clear instead of blue.
>>24438316
>Why so friendless
Combination of lack of social skills and lack of desire to talk to random people (have some weird mental block where I don't really find new people interesting 99% of the time), the second problem kind of compounds the first, which in turn compounds the second even more.
>Care to explain a little more
Quit my job because my boss is (was, I guess) a borderline-manipulative cunt who by the end of my employment was barely paying me more than it cost to drive up and buy tools/materials, much less pay rent and feed myself. The last week I was there, on two seperate days he told me the night before to drive up to [jobsite] an hour up the mountain, through snow and several miles down a snow-covered dirt road, only to send me a text "nevermind lol" hours after I'd gotten there and sort of halfassed around the place looking for busywork to do before driving back (didn't get the text until back in town, no service at the jobsite.)
Also had a long history of "nevermind, decided I didn't want that thing I just told you to do and you spent eight hours on, so I won't pay you for your time." Pay was decent and responsibility was low, is the main reason I stayed there for so long, but by the time I quit he was pinching me so bad
>well you worked 8 hours anon, but I changed my mind and it isn't what I wanted after all, besides I think you could've done it faster, so I'll give you 4 or 5 hours of pay and no reimbursement for supplies
that I was in full pennypinching mode and still barely breaking even each month.
>>24438381
Im 225. I want to be loved.
>>24438532
Well if you dont find people interesting why do you want friends
Also you sound like a carpenter of sorts. I feel like theyre in demand in snowy areas arent they
>>24438567
Well whats stopping you lad.
>>24436927
Apple ale, please.
I don't really have an identity beyond what I project, and not even that because I almost immediately prostrate myself and show myself as a beta bitch. I'm into looking /fa/ and I can almost intimidate normies, but they quickly read into my self-deprecation and unwillingness to discuss my personal life and realize I am leagues below them. Spergs can't tell me apart from normies because I'm only slightly more adjusted. Both groups do better than me, though. They've had sex, have a best friend, and don't just sit at home all day by force. I think both groups would be surprised to know just how lame I am. Honestly, I'm so maladjusted at this point, I think I just want to make money just to fund my weeb lifestyle. Maybe learn some japanese to watch my anime. Live alone, die alone and dress like a chinese cartoon. I just wish I was confident enough to get these normies to stop singling me out.
Worked on a project with my oneitis the other day. Surprisingly, the conversation was easy and low stress. I feel like she was digging it, but about 3 hours into project her bf started calling non stop. Like every 5 seconds her phone would vibrate, and she'd immediately silence it and flip it upside down. It feels nice that she valued working with me over talking to her bf, but that still really killed the vibe. Things got pretty awkward after that.
water please, im already drunk af
>tfw have a big project to tuesday
>didnt even started
>the two chads in the group are too busy fucking girls to even think about it
>im nervous af
>probably will sperg out due low self steem
this isnt the first time to happen, I did other project with those guys and they give 0 fucks about helping me
what the fuck should I do?
I'm addicted to 4chan and its destroying my life
Please help me
>>24438668
>doesnt fit in with normies
>thinks he doesnt fit in with spergs
You gotta make them recognize you lad
Also of your fa could you help me with something?
>>24438672
Shes being nice lad. Hate to break it
>>24438702
Try and do it then.
Explain to the teacher that they didnt help
Water.
>>24438702
Do well and speak to the teacher.
Tell them they didn't do shit.
Or get on Chads good side and talk them into getting you laid. Women will fuck you if Chad likes you and he says so.
>>24438753
>>24438800
If youre addicted to 4chan find another hobby like music or something
But first check my double dubs
>>24438702
Finish your portion of the assignment on your own and speak to the lecturer who assigned it to ensure you aren't docked points because of the Chads' laziness.
>>24438820
You don't understand I have other hobbies but I'm just addicted to here
Like I physically struggle to leave here
I barely sleep
I don't really go out anything
I just want to leave but I can't
>>24438872
Well why do you wanna leave. Just keep thinking about that reason. Id say go without internet for a while.
>>24438636
>why do you want friends
I like people, I just don't like taking the effort to meet and familiarize myself with them. I'm not full autist like many on this board, but i recognize that I'm socially impaired past the trendy "omg I'm nervous around senpai sometimes therefore #handicapped" thing that's going around. Though I feel emotions and have interests like any normal human being, I find it difficult to hold conversations about anything non-objective. That's why working trades are great for me, it's like an entire career field full of people like me. I can talk about my work when my work is construction, it's hard to 'talk shop' when 'shop' is filing papers.
>carpenter
I'm currently a nonspecific tradesman, basically a general laborer, just with more tools and specific skillsets than your average highschool grad.
>snowy areas
From what I hear, you're correct, unfortunately I hate snowy areas. I worked in the Tahoe region for a while one winter, and it was horrible.
>>24438800
>>24438803
>>24438830
Thanks for helping me lads, the thing is, the project really didn't started. We didn't even decide what we will do.
Anyway, I'll try my best, thanks for helping
>>24438800
> make them notice me
here's the thing senpai, I just don't feel like I should. who are they to make me chase them, a bunch of bitter cunts like me testing me on a hobby that requires zero talent, just money and Internet access? I almost hate spergs for this exact reason, how dare they say I'm not one of them just because I style my hair and have a closet full of nice shit? It's my fucking money, I bet they don't even have waifus anymore senpai, because they can pork their angry fat goth girlfriend they got with out of convenience. Fuck spergs.
>>24438896
Because I'm trying to change and reform my life but I just can't stop being on here
I've only got about 5 shots of rum, is it worth getting drunk tonight mates?

watch you? .....you say??
Can I have a Will Rogers? When I was a kid a waiter told me that Shirley Temples were for girls and Will Rogers were for boys. I haven't had either in a very long time. The anon I met here back in February hasn't replied to my email in a little over a week. Prior to that I was the one that was slow to respond. It feels like shit. I feel like I'm crumbling.
>>24439098
Turns out it's a Roy Rogers not a Will Rogers. My brain really is turning to mush these days.
>>24438921
1.beggars cant be choosers lad
2.why not befriend your coworkers
>>24438946
Like I said above beggars cant be choosers
Why not find more fa friends
Also whats a good outfit that goes good with a g eazy haircut? Help a lad out
>>24438970
Dont need to leave here to change yoirself desu.
>>24438976
Only if you want to. Or you can discuss feels
>>24439120
Here ya go.
Maybe hes busy. You werent mean to him were you lad?
>>24439135
>why not befriend your coworkers
Heh. It was easier when I worked at Walmart. At [business name] Electric and [business name] Homebuilders, my coworkers are 3 fathers with school-aged children. I'm 24. It's not that I don't talk to them or anything, but there's just kind of a generational gap.
Part of my reason for wanting a new job, but much smaller than that whole "bossman ain't payin' me, mate" issue.
>>24439232
Well robots arent in just trades
Did you try local bars (not here actual bars) or hobbyists.
>>24439205
Wasn't mean at all. Just really slow to reply. You're right though. Last I heard all he was doing was working and sleeping. Wish he didn't have to live like that. Don't want him to overdo it but I suppose that's easy for me to say since I'm not in his shoes.
>>24439281
I have a friend that wont even be around for months but he'll still act cool to me. O wouldnt worry too hard lad.
>>24439273
I've done bars. It can be fun with friends, but it's just lacking stuff if I go solo. My main hobbies (that I'd want to connect with people on, at least) are offroading and carpentry, I've thought about it but never put effort into finding clubs.
Long-term (or I guess less than long term, now that i'm no longer employed I've got a lot more free time to look for jobs far away) I'll live on the Oregon coast and hopefully pick up boating as a hobby. Right now I'm too /poor/ and far from any coast or lake to do that.
>>24439367
Isnt there some kinda trade job for boats? Try that. Lots of robots on boats lad desu.
Here's my ID, a cute anime girl.
As far as drinks go, Cherry Soda with some ice cream in it.
I'm in a good mood.
>>24439344
Thanks, really. I tend to psych myself out a lot. Outside opinions help.
>>24439411
Here ya go anon. How do ya do.
>>24439135

>>24439444
Thanks F.A.M
I'm doin alright had some coffee and that's perked me right up. Tomorrow I gotta clean my room and then I'm gonna look for a job so I can start wagekeking and get money to buy nice things and so we don't starve as much when things get tight near the end of the month.
>>24439403
>trade job for boats
It's definitely not impossible to get into, but it's hard work. The Most Dangerous Storm, etc. etc. I do an easier day's work as a mason, for christ's sake, and I get to go home to my own apartment every night (day fishermen might get to, anyone on a large tanker or freighter has practically military-deployment levels of not-being-home. Same with trucking.)
>>24439424
No problem.
>>24439464
Thanks, what are the recommended brands for this? Im not into fashion but im trying to be. Do I really need the leather jacket seems fedora to me?
>>24439488
What job ya tryna get anon?
>>24439532
Its an option tho. Money is money.
>>24439543
Anything really.
I'm looking for a comfy job though, something like working at a daycare or working with kids (since I wanna be an elementary teacher)
But I'd settle for a grocery job or something, fastfood even.
Just something to get some monies to spend
Hello, Keep. Here's my ID. I'll have a Black Coffee. How was my day? Fine I suppose, I mostly laid in bed all day, thought about playing vidya but it just didn't seem worth it. All week I look forward to the weekend but when it comes I just don't feel like doing anything. Anyone else know this feel? Any advice?
>>24439581
>tryna to be an elementy teacher
Interstinf job choice. Why?
>>24439543
kek, I don't believe in brands so idk. If it fits your body type and you believe you look good, then confidence and execution makes you look expensive. In moderation of course. If you don't want the jacket, don't do it. If you think you look like a fag, you won't pull it off. Wear everything else, but replace the necklace with a watch.
>>24439618
Heres ya coffee
Try plannin an activity to do during the weekend
Also theres nothing wrong with kicking it back all weekend.
>>24439628
I'm good with kids, and I've always wanted to encourage them to pursue education and teach them all about the world and what lies in and out of it. Sort of, expand their minds and plant the idea that the world has some beauty in even the darkest places.
>>24439642
Would I be able to replace the button down for a plain white T or would that just look weird? Im not really able to throw cash around.
>>24439679
Glad to see someone who still wants to enrich youth instead of chase a check. Rock on famalam.
>>24439488
I've always wished I had the motivation to start a Robot Resumes thread, to help us all get jobs.
Actually come to think of it, I started a thread kind of like that once, a general professional advice thread. 404'd with no replies, big surprise there.
Here's mine, my white-collar businessman brother is helping me with it, and his resume is only slightly less impressive than Tony Stark's. If that's any help. 'Member to smile and pretend you want to be there at the interview.
Also, anyone more professional than I have any tips? Main weakness of mine is experience, namely not having been really anywhere except Walmart for very long, but there's not much you can do to hide that without outright lying.inb4 anyone telling me to outright lie
>>24439735
Of course, I've been blessed with nice teachers through my life and even now still.
One of my professors even gave us like $160 to buy a nice Christmas Dinner last year.
I want children to know that the world is full of cool stuff.
>>24439770
My resume is nothing impressive, no jobs to speak of. But I do include desirable things in mine, like the desire to work and ensure a great all around experience.
>>24439570
>Money is money.
Not at that stage yet, but I do hear you there. I do know if I get that desperate, I'll be able to find a masonry/carpentry job (bitch carpentry, carrying 12"x12"x20ft beams around and pouring concrete, not building pretty furniture for yuppies) or highway job pretty easily. It's a foot-in-the-door thing, once you have some work on your resume it's a thousand times easier to find some more.
>>24439716
It wouldn't look weird, but it would be /too/ casual for me. /fa/ might like it, though. I'd put the necklace back on.
>>24436927
>come one come all
>normies aren't allowed
Does not compute.
>>24439770
>>24439814
Forgot to attach mine, sorry family.
>nothing impressive
Mine was practically nothing when I got the job at Walmart. And my actual work history's far less impressive than it looks, I've been polishing it and exaggerating its miniscule/unimpressive shit for years.
Any entry-level job, they know you have no experience, they want a well-crafted resume and good interview appearance so they know you'll take the job seriously and professionally, not ditch a quarter of your workdays or regularly show up hungover to loaf around and listen to music.

Bartender's actually pretty cool, he just let that epic meme slide through unchecked.
Have a drink, it's on me.
Bartender! This guy's first is on my tab.
>>24439814
Nice man chase that.
>>24439820
yea ik what you mean. So youre probably gonna take a job doong that cement stuff. Then what?
>>24439824
Alright thanks lad. Also I might forget the gold chain too because im a 18yo senior in hs and I feel like my friends would roast me for it.
how do i get people to respect me
>ID
Never was much of a drinker, just a Coke or something please
*sigh*, idk anymore, what's even the point of any of this? What's the point of going on in life when there's literally nothing worth going on for? Just one friend, that'd be enough, just one, but no, I've got nothing, nothing to live for.
>>24439900
By doing respectable things and being a respectable person.
>>24439912
Well why no friends anon. Dont talk like that theres gotta be something.
>>24439926
what does that entail
>>24439873
Damn, your resume looks nice and official. Something that I'm jealous of. Mine's kinda dinky. I'll put it up once I find it.In the middle of MGSV right now
>>24439897
Thanks man, I'm gonna do that. I was unsure at first, but while i was out doing my hours for my Education classes, I gotta say that this is my calling.
>>24439912
Coke's good senpai. Drink of patricians
Uh, idk, what drink reeks of "virgin loser"?
Just give me that
Ahh, what's up robots? Me? The usual, loser, no gf, no life
>>24439991
Id tell you if I knew
Best guess would be dont act like an idiot.
>>24440017
Happy for you
Closing up bar lads.
Lounging area is still open but no service is here. Goodnight. I appreciate spurdo memes for tips
So I just finished a batch of mixed berry mead I'll be using for Christmas presents. It's ageing nicely, and is moving from a wineish, tannin flavor to more of a strawberry flavor. So that's pretty awesome.
But I'm just generally unhappy with my life. I started going back to college a few months ago. And I'm just not happy with it. I don't know. It's hard to put my finger on. I hate to whine because it seems like so many people on here have it worse than me.
In celebration of my badass mead, I think I'll have a mead.
>>24439895
Thanks, f a m. I always get nervous about posting on here because people get steamed about people who have jobs or have gone to college or whatever, so I'm never sure if I should post.
>>24439897
>probably gonna take a job doong that cement stuff
Hopefully not. I'm looking at a few relatively-cushy (for blue-collar work, at least) parks and residential maintenance jobs.
>then
Parks (or some non-military public) job is the long-term goal. I'm not financially ambitious, my neighbor makes a pretty penny working Parks and pretty much does nothing all day and competition-races his Beamer on the weekend. If I can land a job and be relatively secure in my employment for the next decade, anything much past minimum wage will be plenty. You friends in the city may tell different tales, but out rural it's much, much easier to live cheap. Even paying rent on a nice apartment, I can skim by on about 5 or 6 hundred a month comfortably.
>>24440017
>looks nice and official
Like I said, business-shark brother looked it over and tore it a new asshole. Plus, like I said, essentially everything but Eagle Scout and University Student wasn't even there before I got the shitty Walmart job (literally stood next to a conveyor belt for eight hours and put boxes marked with the correct number onto the corresponding pallet for eight hours, that fancy way I describe it is a pretty far stretch.)
My "Contracting" job in 2010 was seriously an adult-student classmate in one of my Engi classes who took pity on me/thought I'd be some cheap labor, I put shingles on a roof and scraped linoleum off a floor for 5 or 10 hours a week for his (at the time, it's taken off in recent years) shitty home-renovation business.

Not a barkeep, but depending on your age, try either a Mike's Hard or just shotgun domestic light beers as fast as you can.

>>24440257
>How's 24 on the verge of 25 sound?
Sounds like me, I'll be 25 next year.
My "virgin loser" drink is chugging Millers High Life as fast as I can, mostly because I can't take shots to save my life, and when sober I'm too lazy to mix a drink but when drunk I'm too drunk to do anything more complicated than open a bottle.
>>24440257
Plus I'm 30, so I'm the old guy in all my college classes. All these young, dumb people.
>>24440281
Has an escort once, she farted on my dick before I even entered her, no joke, made me sick, fucking sheboons am I right?

I'll try that sometime

You brew? I'm jealous, that's some good old-fashioned stuff right there.
As someone who left and went back to college/uni a few times, I'll concur it sucks. I couldn't stick it out, ragequit (so at least I can keep my head up and say I didn't flunk out, I guess) but if you can make it through then rats off to ya. There's a lot of opportunities I'd have if I had "Bachelor's" after my name. The social scene, if you're not Chad or trans-Chad (Chad-identifying), it can get pretty alienating. The worst for me was seeing my fellow adults, 20+, acting if anything less mature than teenagers in highschool.
>people get steamed about people who have jobs
Imo, it's a lot of epic meme-ing. I'm with you though, it's hard to tell memes from heartfelt sentiments a lot.
>>24440257
>just in time for the shop to close up,

Each day, I train, and train, and train.
It seems as though I base my entire life upon an event that will occur in 3 years. Each day, I feel like breaking. I see no happiness now. My entire life is based upon waiting.
>>24440490
Also, I've been listening to Dead Kennedys all tonight (never really listened before). For some reason the band reminds me strongly of *a* girl from highschool, but I can't for the life of me remember who that girl was.
I probably just had some cute chick in some irrelevant class who wore DK shirts a lot. Probably one of those cute emo/scene girls with freckles, and hair shaved just above the left ear, or something.
Here's some jukebox stuff, if you guys don't mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Lu0G1xCjEM

I want it too fucking bad to fail. Im a special fucking snowflake
Until I fail.
Hey bar keep, was getting worried I wasn't going to find this place. Feeling pretty down, last one of my friends left in the old neighborhood. My mates getting married, everyone's at school, or left town in general. So I spend my weekends here at my pc, getting pretty depressed. Let me get a vodka and tonic.
Here's a new song for the jukebox:

tfw cant find him or any information
tis sad, really wanted to be their friend.
peach nehi with vodka, please.
you know what? I've had enough. my whole life is just the same thing over and over again, and I hate it. wake up, go to work, drink, cry yourself to sleep alone in your bed for two. I hate myself.
>>24440529
>>24440595
Also, free pint for that pic, chum. We've got the general domestics, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, and Pyramid Apricot on tap tonight.

>>24440619

Ayyy, you cheeky cunt
What's with the whole sitting at the computer thing though? Why not go to school too, and what's up, your mate's getting married? Doesn't mean you still can't hang with him

Breh, brewing is easy as pie. Literally, all you need for mead is a carboy and a couple buckets. You don't even really need the carboy, just the buckets. Some honey, some spring water, some yeast, you're good to go. Put it all together, wait a few months, bottle it up. This batch is tasting like strawberry jelly, the next batch will be mango vanilla.
The college thing will be what it will be. I'm getting too old and falling apart at the seams, I can't do manual labor forever. College isn't a perfect answer, but it's better than just waiting it out.
>>24440467
Thankfully I have zero friends to be disappointed in, kek. Picture related.
>>24440701
Well, that's all I really can do. I attend college but its community, so I don't really hang out there or meet people like a go away school. I also work, but im not really looking to make friends there. My friend funny enough met a chick on Tinder, got her pregnant, and is now getting married to her. So he's moving to be closer to her.
>>24440615
>BUDS
I may be a redneck, but I'm not /k/ (too poor), don't know what you're talking about m8ey.
You can fail at one thing and still succeed at another. Fail to graduate, succeed at getting a job. Fail to get a job, succeed at finding a therapist. Fail at finding a therapist, succeed in talking to a family member you haven't seen in a while. Point is, don't take one goal and tell yourself that if you can't do it, you're a failure at everything else too.
>>24440619
>last one of my friends left in the old neighborhood. My mates getting married, everyone's at school, or left town in general.
I was in that situation a few years ago. Vodka and tonic, double vodka here. For me at least, that's the kind of problem that I can get drunk and complain about and actually make slightly easier to take. You employed, or in school? Sounds like you're sorta /smalltown/, but I could just be misreading your vocabulary.

Find a hobby, perhaps? Video games and television never did it for me, but doing physical things helped a lot. Mountain biking, carpentry and car work (though the last two are more expensive, as one requires expensive tools and the other requires a car) will get you active, and hiking is free. Even in a city, there are trails you can walk that won't get you shanked, I went on a lot of hikes and bike rides when I lived near-downtown Dallas.
>>24440826
Yeah i'm in school, and employed. So those generally keep my busy throughout the week. But these weekends are killer man. I dont know what to do with myself. Oh, yeah man im from a middle sized town too. Nothing to really do here besides smoke pot or walk around.

Vent away, then. And take my encouragement to have your own drink IRL, if you've got any in the house. It really makes these threads better, in my humble opinion.
>>24440725
>all you need
I'd imagine messing up would either taste atrocious, or make you feel atrocious, probably both.
As a manual laborer, I wouldn't advise doing it forever either, although I've certainly seen a few grandfather-aged men doing it. Mindful of your motions, lift with knees, work smarter not harder, etc. etc., stuff you probably know.
If you have decent experience in skilled labor, especially as a supervisor (even working supervisor) there's a good chance you'll land a decent office job or at least no-labor inspector slot. College degree helps a lot in that department, I'd imagine.
>>24440722
Huh. That's something. Not gonna lie, you sure? That's not exactly the best career choice if you ask me, at least if You value your life it isn't

I went hiking a lot, there's a lot of trails to discover in a small foothill town. Find some guys to drink with, if you can, that's the main appealing thing about my hometown. Lord knows it's not the girls, when every girl is either married or has dated all your friends at some point in the past 10 years.
>>24440915
Shit son. That is no easy road. Best of luck, though. But christ, failing out of SEALs is no failure of life. That's like saying if you don't have a PhD in astrophysics you might as well be retarded. And all manhood/fulfillment stuff aside, if you're not afraid of hard work (which, as an aspiring SEAL you're clearly not), construction can give ya almost as many opportunities as being a SEAL. I know I talk about construction a lot, but it's one thing I know a small amount about, so I help where I can.
>>24440916
>oneitis loves LoL
That sucks man, LoL is something I could never get into, and 40-55min/game was an awful high time investment for something I could at best only pretend to enjoy. At least it's free.
>>24440917
Anime is effeminate garbage. But there was one anime I liked, it really stuck with me. Kaiji.
There is a quote: "Normally, those people would never wake up from their fantasy worlds. They live meaningless lives. They waste their precious days over nothing. No matter how old they get, they'll continue to say, "My real life hasn't started yet. The real me is still asleep, so that's why my life is such garbage." They continue to tell themselves that. And they age. Then die. And on their deathbeds, they will finally realize: the life they lived was the real thing. People don't live provisional lives, nor do they die provisional deaths. That's a simple fact! The problem... is whether they realize that simple fact."
I dont want to be a waiting person. But that is what I am doing. Waiting. Training. My real life starts in 3 years, be it as a SEAL, or as a failed SEAL. But waiting feels like failure. Each day, I remind myself why I keep going. I only fear the reason may be unattainable.
I can do it. Thats what I tell myself.
>>24440980

Seals have the lowest death rates in the armed forces. Youre more likely to die as an investment banker, look it up.
And If I fail, I fail at my dream. I will spend every day until I die regretting something I could've done better right now.

>Anime is effeminate garbage
While this is true, there are definitely a few I like. The genre tends to tackle far more adult issues in more mature ways than Western cartoons. I know that quote/scene, it's saved to my other PC somewhere as an inspiration/reminder.
>3 years
Are you still in school, or serving in another branch, or what? I have a friend who's trying to get into Rangers after years as an Army grunt, it's some intense stuff.
>>24441060
>lowest death rates
Oh I wasn't really talking about that, honestly unless you go private-contractor the armed forces are safer than many construction and petroleum fields.
Dude I know what it's like to have A Dream and fail it, but life goes on. I used to KNOW I was gonna be an engineer and succeed, when I quit uni it felt like my life was over. But I went from working part-time minimum-wage at Shitmart Inc. to a valuable construction laborer who gets competitive and real job offers out of the blue on a semi-regular basis. And I'm way happier than I probably would be as an engineer, anyway (sitting at a desk/no physical activity makes me depressed for some reason).
