Thats closest Ill ever get to real partying
Happy 2016, robots
It only gets better if you improve yourself and the world around you. If you're a fucking NEET loser than nothing will change.

Well, I almost got to make out with a girl on a New Years party
Too bad I passed out from too much alcohol before I could. But felt nice nevertheless, even if it lasted a mere few seconds
But hey... maybe it's better that you never had anything worth losing. You're just numb... that's better than hurting from losing something you loved, right?

Knowledge.
The bible was right about that one.
I quit smoking drugs and cigs. Not some new year resolution bullshit, I just happened to realize I should start trying to self improve the little bit I can. I go to a uni and have a 3.0, a few friends, but fuck getting a girl to even be friends with me post high school is going to be harder than going to fucking space. I know its fucking day three but I've never wanted to off myself more. I know I'll be able to quit, but I don't know if I will ever feel ok again with out pumping dopamine into my brain artifically. I feel like a fucking sack of shit and I hate that I'm a pissed off little dickhead to everyone I come across. I just wish I could keep my fucking mouth shut arround people I like. I almost wish I'd get an attitude with the wrong person to get put in my place.
>>25414623
story please.
here's my fucking original comment
>>25418464
turned 19 about a month ago, I don't think it will ever get better. Circumstances will change but everything will have the same outcome
I mean i would try to change and have a better life, but i have no idea what i want.
My idea of perfect life is getting a random job that pays enough, live with my family/parents and play videogames in my free time.
Feeling numb 24/7 but at least i wouldn't be sad and still have some fun untill i die
Damn, i'm feeling worse as days pass by, i might be able to outgrowth the fear of killing myself. Not even the people (family) i grew up with and had a wonderful time as a kid/teen want to talk to me...at 1st i didn't care, i mean, i liked being alone, just thinking and wasting time, but now i'm 23, haven't had a relationship since i was 12 or something, no friends, no job, doing nothing all day. I tried to change, tried to make friends, but i couldn't because i don't understand people and they don't seem to be interested in me in any way, i know a few people and team members from sport related stuff, but even when they are making plans to go out and have fun, they don't consider me.
So i tried to get along better with my family, my cousins and siblings, but it was the same, and that got me even more depressed, the realization that not even your own family wants to talk to you or include you in their plans.
I don't know robots, this year might be the year for me, when i get the balls it takes to shoot my brains out.
>>25419124
I just want to ask these guys if they wanna hang out and play some vidya
>>25419780
>hang out
>play vidya

>>25414090
>tfw the girl taking the picture is laughing
>>25419780
>>25419385
Oh yeah, vydia doesnt even appeal to me anymore now that i quit drugs. I guess most of my hobbies are fading too. All I do now is clean shit and lay in bed. I feel like Im fucking flatlining now. Literally the only reason I havent and wont off myself is because of my parrents and my siblings, but existing in perpetual depression, anxiety, and bipolarism is making every day exponentially harder.

Is dropping out of uni a common occurrence for robots?
>depressed and hated course so didn't both going in most days

ughuuuuuu this thread is so depressing... it feels nice to not be alone
>>25420609
i didnt drop out, im still pulling a 3.0 somehow but yeah it seems common for robots.
>depressed and hated course so didn't both going in most days
me too, that and being on drugs most of the time. but quitting like i've posted earlier leaves me feeling hallow
>>25420674
>not be alone
Fuck off, normie
>>25414567
what a lousy cake
I wish there was a government program where robots were drafted into the army by force and put into robot companies consisting with at least 90% robots. They would act as a reserve and would never be sent to fight abroad, but they would be paid minimum wage and would have to live together in standard quarters with no internet or computers. After 5 years of service, the robot would be allowed to leave the compound for a trial period, to see how well they've adjusted to other people.
It may sound harsh, but there are different kinds of suffering and this would be the type that mostly do good and serves to strengthen character.
>>25420693faggot
I am anything but a normie.
>>25420712
mental illness and the military doesn't mix well. There would be a lot of suicide attempts, people going AWOL, people doing anything in their will to try to get out. That happens even when people volunteer. Imagine if it was mandatory
>>25420686
As much as I hated the course I miss all of the few friends I made there.
>>25420765
Then let them kill themselves
>these pictures of robot birthdays
This is my future
>moving
>gonna have almost an entire 24hr period with no internet
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>25420351
The only friends I have are online now. We'll pull through somehow.
>>25420609
I think about it everyday. The only reason I haven't is because I'm so far in (4 years) and my mom freaks the fuck out and tells me I'll work at McDonalds the rest of my life if I don't continue. Couldn't even take a semester off because of this. The lack of a break has really fucked with my grades.

What do you robots wish for when you blow out your candles?
>>25421692
its not important and every day is a repeat of the same shit for me

I actually graduated uni, but I've been unemployed for 2 years.
>>25421923
This pretty much. If I havent succeced by the time im 30 then in going to off myself. And yes I am trying dammit.
Just fuck my desu up desu
>>25421874
I used to be all four of those things, now I'm just a friendless kv. It took failing out of my previous school and having to move back home to turn around academically, but I rededicated myself and now I'm on a steady path, getting A's and B's. I have an alright part time job to help out at home and have some spending money while I'm going to school. Trying to solve those other two points this year.
>>25421953
I don't doubt it. I remember seeing this picture >>25413986 when I was younger and not wanting to turn out that way. Now I'm 3 years older and in still in the same boat.
>>25419038
1st decade: 0-10

What did you study?
Keep getting muted
>>25422097
I studied English Literaturepls no bully, I had no idea what I was doing at the time.
I graduated with high honours, but I don't want to do law or teaching so I might as well not even have a degree.
>1 (one) day into 2016 and things are shittier than ever

>>25422158
Better than what I want to study. Why don't you try writing some literature or something
>>25413930
It gets better
It better!
It gets better
It better!
I'd like to ask a normie what makes him happy to live his life, like really. I have no clue on why even keep breathing other than my family and friends which will probably get a real life and leave me alone once again
Anyone else has literally no ambition in life? Don't want to become anyone, don't feel the need to earn big money, don't want kids
I' just live out of sheer curiosity of how will the world look like in the future

I know the pain, anon. I've been depressed forever, it seems, and even when I was a kid and felt like killing myself, my parents just yelled and kicked, calling me a lazy shit.
I don't have to deal with them much anymore, so they don't even know enough about me to call me a piece of shit.Even though I am.
>>25422325
pretty much but I have few things I need to do before I actually commit to full no one...
>>25422325
Another one here.
I really want to kill myself, and leave nothing behind, but the only thing that keeps me going is curiosity.
I mean, I've probably got 60-80 years left in my life if I just keep going. A lot can happen in 60 years.
Just the last 20 years have been absolutely ridiculous for human advancement. I just can't wait to see what the future will be like.I just want to be a time traveler, honestly.
>>25413930
Jesus, if you think this is sad,
I just turned 50 on Christmas Eve
The "Big" party was just me and my blind dog
I had a Domino's Pizza and my birthday cake was the Chocolate Lava Cake they sell
I toasted to my mid-life with a bottle of Boone's Farm Blackberry Ridge, this flavor has been discontinued, so the store I got it from ordered me 5 cases, I have enough to enjoy a bottle on my birthday until I turn 101, it was the first hard liquor I tried when I turned 21, I am a creature of habit, the 5 cases ended up being .89 cents per bottle, a pretty good investment
Had a few friends years ago, but we drifted apart, so now that my parents have passed it's just me and Bob
Wouldn't have it any other way, I enjoy my life and look forward to new adventures in my second half century
>>25423043
1/10
-9 points for thinking boone's farm is hard liquor

>>25421988
I haven't had a birthday party since I was 12
I have no friends so nobody says happy birthday to me besides my grandparents and sister
My mother tries to make me a cake every year but my dad throws them in the trash occasionally because he hates us (including the one from last year when I turned 23)
This year I'm just going to take a day off from work and leave in the morning without telling anyone
It got better for some people. Actually it got better for a lot of people. It definitely got better for people that I know. There are people in this world that started 2016 really well and their years will go on to get even better.
Good for them
>>25423146
Keep busy, read a lot, take 1 major trip a year, go to museums, art galleries, ballet, concerts, lots of free stuff to do in my city
I have a small apartment, but no car, plenty of public transit, if I take a driving trip I just rent a car
I volunteer a lot, soup kitchens, places for people worse off than me, keeps your perspective
I have a a great 401k, other investments, so retirement is going to be OK
I walk a lot to keep in shape, eat pretty good, except for my birthday
After a while you just don't care about sex or having to compromise with someone to have a relationship, I do and go where I want, no one around to "fix" me
Never wanted kids, they are uninteresting to me until they can have a proper conversation
Thought about ending everything when I was younger, but I decided if I did that then "they" win
When I die no one will miss me, no one will probably notice, won't matter to me by then
I will join all the billions of people who have died before me, unknown, anonymous, forgotten, I will just be one more grain of sand added to an endless beach
Only a very few of us really matter when you step back and look at it, doesn't mean my life was a waste, it mattered to me.

>Facebook wishes aren't worth shit
I have a facebook account that I don't log into and it made me feel alright when people posted on it, because I'd get e-mails saying who sent me a birthday post. I didn't get a single post last year though, so I guess people really don't care about me anymore.
>>25423600
Went to community college, to get all my lower courses taken care of, really cheap, then I transferred to a four year to get my degree, I have a basic Liberal Arts degree
Got a job with the federal government, pushing papers around for Social Security, most local, state and federal jobs are always listed, now the do it online
I just kept my nose clean, completely a-political at work, just the nice guy down the hall, my job and benefits are more important than wearing my opinions on my sleeve, always early, stay late, make yourself the go-to guy, I have taken more classes to keep myself current, time and good reviews, up you move and more money you get
I buy what I need, not what I want, try to save so I can pay big items off at once, keep stuff to a minimum, quality lasts, junk is just junk.
I have always "paid" myself first, full amount into 401k and IRA, a simple low risk mutual fund is what I use
My job is not high profile, no excitement, but it pays my bills and lets me do the other things that I enjoy.

If you weren't such a naive faggot, you'd know some people are doomed from the start, or that "better" doesn't always exist.
I'm the latter. I don't want a job. I don't want a gf. I don't want money. I don't want to kill myself. I'm just tired. I don't care about anything, so there aren't any goals to fight towards.

haha
I'm so lonely. I'm 29 and I've felt this way for almost a decade. Most everyone I used to know has drifted off onto normie lives. I'd do anything to meet a new, real-life friend.
I had a terrible dream the other night. Random mundane events from the past unfolded in my mind's eye as a voice screamed over and over "I'm being tortured!" superimposed over the moving images of my memory. It was my inner voice that has been silenced by years of sadness and apathy. I can't even figure out how to meet people over the internet anymore. There seems to be so many new technologies to help people meet each other but my own life just keeps drifting farther down the spiral.
>>25424320
Normals don't understand this train of thought.
I'll be 20 this year. Probably a 20 years old virgin. Who's never had a gf.
Damn it kinda hurts. Mostly because I can still do something about it but I know I wont.
Starting a new course at tech school this year.
I'll make friends this time...right?
>>25413930
How exactly is celebrating your birthday with your family bad? Pretty sure you're more of a robot if you don't even have a cake or family that cares about celebrating your birthday.
>>25426364
I wish my family would just leave me alone on my birthday. I hate receiving presents and I can buy a cake myself.
>>25426414
You should stop being an autist. Our families are the only people that care about us. Normies are our enemies, not our families familia.
I know I sound like a faggot but
>>25426465
Defending family doesn't make you a faggot.
We just have different opinions. I just prefer my own company.
>>25413930
I'm glad no one took pictures of my birthdays except when I was little. Other wise they would've looked like those pictures...
My 20th Birthday was more depressing then most of those kids though, because my Grandpa died the day before my birthday and I found out the night before my birthday.
>>25426297
Yeah, look confident and bold. Someone will talk to you since first impressions aren't around yet, but you only get one chance before the normies tag you as "qiuet worthless beta". You should try to greet one of the less chad-looking dudes, it's all or nothing
>>25426465
I agree, anon shouldn't complain anymore
>>25413930
Guys, I was thinking the same thing coming into 2014, I was broke, a community college dropout and lonely as fuck, 2 years later and I own my own home, have my first car, my own basset hound puppy, and am engaged to the type of girl where, if I described how perfect she is, you all would accuse me of being full of shit. It wasn't easy, I had to work my ass off to get here, but goddamnit it was worth it. I have been in the darkest depths of despair, as in homeless after I caused an FBI raid on my dads house with no one willing to take me in, to having the life I never dreamed of. Don't give up guys, if you try your hardest, it really can get better.
>>25426977
I hope that can help or inspire someone. I'm not stupid wealthy or anything unobtainable, I just put myself out there and am now the top of my sales team at Lifetime which, in conjunction with the help of my fiancee means we can afford a mortgage. It got better, and this time 2 or 3 years ago I was seriously contemplating giving up. I'm really glad I didn't and you will be too.
anyone want to try job corp with me at any location in southern california? i've already tried college, trade school, army, regular jobs, and my anxiety gets me everywhere i go. maybe a fellow robot could ease my suffering. 22 male here.

if anyone is interested, basically you give up your freedom to the government in exchange for nothing. welfare education tier shit, but maybe my parents will think i'm doing something for once.
kik:joej818k
>>25427034
So you sell cable to people? Like, you cold-call and get people to sign up?
>>25427073
Lifetime is an athletic facility. I do some 'cold' calling, as in people who expressed interest in the past but wound up not signing up, but most of my sales come from people bringing their friends in or web leads. I recently sold a membership to a person who happens to be a recruiter for a financial advisement company who thinks I would be a really good match for them, so if that pans out it could get me from $50k a year 100% commission to 60k a year commission + 15k base salary which would be pretty incredible. I'm definitely learning that the harder I work, the luckier I get. I used to sit around doing nothing and lamenting that nothing good came my way, when all I had to do was go make good fortune come my way manually through hard work and giving myself a chance.

I read posts like yours and I never know what to say. I know all those feels, especially not being able to even make internet friends.
Sorry anon, have a (You).
In the past year, I got robbed, my bike was stolen twice, got fired twice, my roommates kicked me out, and I went to jail. Still waiting on my lawyers and the DA to hash out a deal for me, but I'm probably not on the top of their list.
On the plus side, I vastly improved my grades and slept with 2 girls. I also markedly improved my morale and decreased my sense of jealousy towards others' lives.
I'm feeling actually pretty decent despite all of the negatives. Jail was probably the worst out of all of it.
I guess my point OP is that I already feel like rock bottom came and went, so fuck it, here's to looking ahead.
>>25427299
Not the anon you were replying to, but why do you people browse /r9k/? what is the point of being so hostile to the few others who are like you?
>>25427062
perhaps united we can achieve mediocrity..anyone interested?
>>25427062
just give me my (you) please
>>25427461
>my bike was stolen twice
what like the same bike?
Well my mom can't die twice so this year is going to be better by default.
>>25427461
How was jail?
>>25427662
I ask the same question to all the shitposters whining about "normalfags" etc. when they see someone doing anything that's not complete and utter social failure.
>>25416710
at least you don't have to worry about getting kicked out because of your master's grades. i just wanna be NEET again
>sibling wants me to take her to the movies to see star wars

tl;dr star wars is a bad movie don't go see it
>>25427884

Flat out awful, never go in there anon. I was lucky enough to get bailed out before being sent into genpop. I will never forget it.

Holy shit, bro, I'm so sorry.
>>25428059
12 hours maybe, I'm fairly well off and my parents give a shit about me so I made bail almost immediately.
The worst part was the food, being cold as fuck, and having zero communication with the outside world. The other dudes were either drunk/high, completely quiet and creepy and didn't bother anyone, or generally nice and helpful. Most of those dudes understood I had made a mistake and probably didn't belong in jail. I talked to a dude that was in and out of jail like 7 or 8 times that year for a slew of charges. He was a pretty smart dude, just addicted to drugs when he was outside. Some people flat out didn't deserve to be in there.
The worst part, now that I think of it, was seeing a childhood friend of mine in there for a really serious charge. He looked like he knew he was in for a long time.
>>25419124
Fuck, I'm gonna give my friends a call.
>>25414170
This is why I stopped trying to ask people to hang out or do things way back in high-school. It just hurts so fucking much when you realize that you're the "unwanted friend".
>>25428248

>"i lied"
why did I always believe him when he had such a poor track record
>>25428264
It's now been 10 years since high school and they all still hang out together... it gets so awkward when my dad tries to ask me about my "old friends" and I just lie and say everybody got married/moved away... but they still get together every weekend to drink,party,go on vacations to Mexico and shit together or just organize a game of ball.
I wish I never had "friends".
guess i'm shadow b& or something. exiled from the exiles, guess it really can always be worse...

i wanted to do a job corp thing in cali when i was 19. it was a forestry thing, but i was going into uni and had responsibilities. i cant remember the name of it anymore but wanna do it before i get too old. you had to be younger than 24 i think
>>25428438
thanks
>>25428478
yeah i think younger than 24, someone from KY told me about it while i was briefly in the army, no way in hell i'm going in alone though, and don't have any other options at this point.

There's no way this picture is accurate. Her parents probably begged for her to take a pic with them before she hit up the club with her buddies and got railed by 3 chads at once.
>>25420162
Fuck you anon. I don't want these feels
>>25419722
Good luck. It might be the year for me as well.
>>25428223
Lol. 12 hours?
I was in for 16! Maybe 18!
Like you Im thankful I never got transferred to the spic and nig filled county jail. Even the noise level in the police station jail was terrible. Crazy druggies and alcoholics raging, people banging on the doors, and slamming doors. All. The. Time.
I was in a fight (and lost) before the police showed up. It sucked being hauled into jail looking like a complete mess (even though it probably helped my case). Some people wanted to know what happened and I didn't really want to talk about it. I just gave them the concise answer : "some dude road raged on me, and I really dont even know why I was arrested."
I shared a cell with a sleepy old hobo at the station. We made some small talk, and he just fell asleep while we were talking.
Luckily my case was rejected in less than a month and I never had to go to court.
Unfortunately, I haven't improved my life much since then. I have consistent (near min wage part time ) work now, and I am going back to school(even though I already have a BA), but Im still a no friends, no career KHV loser closing in on 30 fast
It will never get better, when I was 18 I thought it would maybe get better, then 20 years later I don't even hope, it just won't happen.
Protip: get money, money will fix everything and bring you happiness.
>>25428917
Going on 25 and can confirm that everything just gets worse and alls I want in life is a job where I can be financially independent but haven't figured out how to make that happen
>>25428943
The only way to make the real big bucks, is to make your own company, you won't get anywhere just slaving away, unless you're in some sort of a higher up position where you get paid tons.
I've been thinking of setting a firework off next to my head.
>Fucked up college so I still have debt and didnt graduate

I"m 27 and I've realized that friends only hold you back. You're kinda right... make lots of money, make sure to get a pre-nup, impregnate some bitch and pray for the best but prepare for the worst.

You'll likely just end up blinding yourself or something

26 here, it doesn't get better.
You either kill yourself or just learn to accept it. It's not so bad once you give up hope. Kind of a relief desu.

What, do you expect that your anime waifu will just knock on your door one day and ask to get married? Do you think you'll just wake up one day without your neckbeard in your own house with wife and children and 5 million dollars? Do you think it takes no effort to achieve anything? Not even to switch off your computer and get a hold of yourself?
Sorry if I'm too "normie" for your standards, but you're not getting anything you won't fight for, or at least ask for. You guys really are just crybabies like everyone says.

This is very nice to hear and I think you are a lovely person. Thank you for giving us a new perspective on life and I truly wish you the best, as well as your dog. I bet he really appreciates your company and you are a great person. Thank you
Im so tired
I just get sicker and sicker every day
Wake up multiple times a night to fight puking
Never sleep right
Just want my families love but they don't love me
I just sit in place for hours now everyday just sobbing
I want the pain to stop
I just want to be normal and worried about normal things
I can't even hold a normal job anymore
>>25414567
This one always gets me
He looks like a childhood friend of mine
>>25414351
>That gif
Fucking got me. It's just a stupid dog that wants to have fun and found a way to play by himself. I know it's just staged and it has an owner and such but it's the idea.
For some reason the ones that really get to me are innocent and enjoying their loneliness like it doesn't bother them. They've just accepted it. It's nice maybe but it's still sad.
