Idk where all the based bartenders went, but i miss these threads. Come on in, have a drink, vent your feels, put a tune on the jukebox if ya don't mind. How are my brobots doing today?
I'm worn out, even though I haven't done anything all day. Back at home after my degree, getting bitched at for not having work yet. I just wish I could find a decent job; the NEET life is killing me.
I'll take a pale ale if you please, barman.
I've been in bed since 9am
Help me
>>26680797
where de you live?
Its a sad day for /r9k/ when these threads are ignored. I'll have a hard shot to kill the pain of it all.
>Idk where all the based bartenders went
He had cancer. Guess.
>>26679256
I got laid off Friday without warning.
I wasn't even told by my boss, IT came over to take my computer away.
I had a great job, now it's gone out of thin air and I have to reapply to places all over again.
Where I live, there are 500+ MINIMUM applicants per job. I was very lucky to have my position, in a big company too, now I'm back to NEETdom for a few months again most likely.
>>26682133
Sucks man, I feel for you. What kind of shit country can you just be fired without warning though?
>>26682288
USA.
Happens more than you think around here.

I have two jobs. I got no shifts all week for one of them, meaning that my next paycheck will be abysmal.
Meanwhile, I got assigned a bunch of new duties at the other one. I'm flattered that they think I'm responsible enough to handle it, but I'm worried I'm going to crash and burn.
Didn't the original bartender have a terminal disease? I-is he still alive...?
>>26680683
Do you have a car? If you do, pizza delivery is a pretty good job. You're guaranteed at least minimum wage, usually closer to $8 or $9/hr though. Literally just pick up a pizza from the store, follow the directions to the house, they sign the receipt and take the pizza, drive back. You'll wind up spending 5-10 minutes of minimal social interaction and 30 minutes driving around listening to your music.
If not, try mturk. It won't make you enough to support yourself but it's a productive way to spend your time on your computer and get enough to buy some tendies or a game or something.
If you're semi-gud at economics and stocks, you could try using that money to flip bitcoins for more money.
If you can, learn a trade like welding, pipefitting, or millwork. The requirements are little to none, coworkers are based chill guys, the pay is good, and it'll get you in shape. Plus then you can look down on all the people who, while they may have A job, they don't have a REAL job.
Lads, I've been thinking that I might actually go through with my greenland suicide plan. It's going to be really nice, I'll head out on snowshoes, dig myself a nice hole, get drunk, and go to sleep.
>>26683530
What's troubling you, Anon?
Can I get you something to drink?
I texted the girl who I mentioned in a previous bartender thread,she didn't even text back once. But I'm going to try to not let that eat me alive, a White Russian please
>>26682522
Probably made it up for attention/unearned pity
>>26681947
>These threads are ignored

/r9k/ is in its death throws.
>>26683909
Plenty of fish, anon.
Here you go.
I just got done watching an old romance movie on TCM, I should be doing homework but it isn't due until Wednesday. I have a big test too that I should be studying for but I don't have the motivation. I'll take a vodka and red bull please, actually make that two.
I am starting to come out of my shell more and am socializing with people at work finally. For the first time since elementary school, I don't feel like an alien trying to blend in with other people.
Although, I found out the girl I like is gay. But maybe we can at least be good friends at some point? And maybe I can turn her straight with my newfound normie charm. Or something.
Sorry, don't mean to shit up the thread with my normie feels, things have just been going pretty fucking well for the first time in a while, and I thought I'd share that.
Hope you all have a stellar night.
>>26684068
Which film was it? I love Silent Sunday Nights but they postpone them in February. : /
I've been pretty productive all day but the loneliness is crippling
Swiping through tinder in vain wish of female attention, between pining for an ex who won't have me.
Academic work, hospitalization, and loneliness - this is my life for the next two years. Then I get to start wageslaving.
>>26684109
It was called High Society, it had Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby in it. A lot of really good songs and the romance was very nice to see, the good guy got the girl in the end when it looked like it would have been impossible.
>>26684102
Can't turn someone straight anon but here's hoping you can be friends with her
>>26684102
Glad to hear things are on the up, friend.
If you want a bit of advice, use your normie charms elsewhere. If she doesn't want it, she doesn't want it.
>>26684102
Does she know that you're into her? I tend to think girls have a radar for that sort of thing but if she doesn't then maybe you should tell her. If she says no then you should look else where, there are always other fish in the sea even when it looks polluted. Congrats on feeling better though I'm trying to get out of my shell more too.
>>26684068
Enjoy, buddy.
Hope the studying goes easy.
>>26679256
I just had a Brooklyn, I'm looking for something a little stronger, I'm trapped in that downward spiral of "my Nation is dying" again...
>>26684158
I've actually seen that one before. It's very jazzy. Well, I hope you do well on your test.
>>26684234
No, but we work together so it'd be really awkward. I think >>26684185 >>26684189 are right, it'd be better if I could just be friends with her. All I really wanna do is play videogames and geek out about shitty webcomics and flash animations with her anyway.
>>26684235
Thank you sir, everyone on here tonight deserves a beer.
>>26679256
do you or anyone else happen to have a higher resolution version of this
Been working away from university at an internship. Go home everyday and am alone. Been trying to find a cute gril but am too awkward and partially hesitant due to being manipulated and controlled to a breaking point in previous relationships. Hope everything works out for everyone.
I'll have coke and rum.
>>26684275
I have a girl like that at my job too, I tried to get with her when she first started and she just wasn't feeling me. Turns out she's great in small doses, nerdy girls are awesome if you can remain friends.
I keep thinking about things I should get done, and that's all I do. I fucking think about them. Instead of doing them like a normal person I overthink and procrastinate. I hope I can make it better.Maybe tomorrow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bi0iwNvNs50
Oh, and give me a glass of water. Don't feel like getting drunk tonight.
>>26684263
What's your kind of drink, Anon? I might be able to reccomend something.
>>26684395
I think I have slav spirit, I'm fond of silky vodka, Belvedere is very nice. I enjoy lemonade and a slice of lemon and crushed ice... simple but you'd make this man smile.
>>26684311
I like to go a little heavier on the rum. What's the point if you can't taste it, right?
>>26684451
How was your day Bartender? Been busy so far?
>>26684451
You've got a point.
Down for shots then?
It's one of those kind of nights.
>>26683973
>Femanon feels get 100 replies
I hate this feel
I'll have a gin and tonic, barkeep. I've been drinking every night and having a drink in the mornings for the last 2 weeks. I've also been skipping class every other day and I haven't even started my paper that's due on Wednesday. I skipped my first test for my other class today. Everything is falling apart and I really don't want to be alive at all anymore.
>>26684447
Sorry about that, had to duck out for a moment.
Don't have any crushed ice, hope this'll do.
>>26683530
think about the last time you were uncomfortably cold
now imagine voluntarily being that way for any amount of time
you literally can't do it
>>26684687
That's lovely thank you. I was worried for you then. When I finish this I think I'll go for a stroll.
>>26684524
A bit hectic, it's nice to settle down for a chat and drinks with you Anons.
>>26684536
Sure. I'm all ears if you want to talk about it.
>>26684612
That's rough, man. It's hard once something starts to slip. Try and power through though. Here you go.
I'm never happy with anything I do. Every day I over analyze the last conversation I had, the last text I sent, etc. I pick it apart until I find something wrong and I worry about it for too long.
I never finish anything either. I started a woodworking project a month ago and I just have no motivation to finish it. I'm in the middle of Hard Times by Charles Dickens and I've completely lost interest.
I just want to do things. I want to set my mind and my hands to something and see it all the way through. I don't want to be a sad cunt who hates himself and leaves things unfinished.
Sorry for the lost post Bartender, I'll take a pint of Spitfire.
>>26684843

I can't even post on 4chan correctly.
What do you do to cheer up after a particularly depressing stretch of time
drinking a vodka cran right now

>>26684824
Stay safe out there, Anon. See you soon.
>>26684843
I know what that's like. Sometimes it helps to just give up on things, don't set your mind to too many at once.
No problem. This what you're looking for?
>>26684875
I like to chat and serve drinks. What's something you like to do, Anon?
>>26684936

That's the stuff. Thanks.

Thanks for working tonight barman, you've given me a reason to smile tonight.
>>26679256
I've been trying to get over my oneitis after 3-4 shitty years of being an orbiter. I've just been completely avoiding her/ not responding to her at all.
It's great to finally be at a point where I'm not always thinking of her, but I feel guilty just avoiding her like this. I don't really know how I can explain this to her.
just a beer for me, anon
>>26685037
>3-4 shitty years of being an orbiter
>orbiter
>FOUR years
>>26684994
My pleasure.
>>26685037
Best of luck getting over her. You'll get there, Anon.
Here's your drink.
>>26685037
how did you meet her? is it purely online?
I really, really enjoy threads like these. 4chan used to have so much more of a sense of community way back when. Now it's all reddit this, cuck that, normie, SJW, /pol/fag, Chad, roasties, arguing over who can or can't be a robot... It's just tiring. I miss when we were just a bunch of outcast anons who could share our feels and silly in-jokes.
Do you have anything dark and malty? I'm not picky.
why do people hate others randomly? it's like everywhere I go people call me a loser, school shooter, unabomber, etc without having said a word to me before. I don't understand. whats so wrong with me that everyone hates me?
vodka please.
About a month ago I stopped feeling bad about >no gf
I don't know how it happened, I just woke up one day and realized it wasn't worth it, because it probably won't happen. I feel like I'm changing in some way. Definitely not for the better, but not for the worse either. It's a truly weird feel.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P3-AFGGvks
>>26684825
Eh, it's just shitty when you put so much trust into a single person only for them to spit it back in your face.
Besides this shit is good to get off your chest anyways.
My gf and I were on a break over the summer, (her idea not mine). Everything is going well, we start chatting again and she suggests the idea of getting back together with me. I ask her if there is any reason as to why I shouldn't be with her. "No, of course not Anon."
A month or so passes and she calls me at work saying that she has something very important she has to tell me but she doesn't want me to be upset. I think to myself, "Oh shit she's pregnant, better convince her to stand at the top of a flight of stairs". But she goes on to tell me, that why we were on""break" she thought it would be a marvelous idea to get drunk with her best guy friend whom she knew had feelings for her. By an act of God they end up fucking, and she claims that she was raped. (Not the first time, she was "raped" by her tai kwon do instructor, (or however the fuck that shit is spelled). After she fantasized about how awesome it would be to fuck a man as old as her father when she was 16.) People just use alcohool as an excuse for their actions which is the biggest crock of shit I've ever heard of.
I was fucking furious she lied to me and I never forgave her. People are so manipulative, fulfilling their own wants even if that means hurting other people. This world disgusts me as I know that I am guilty of this too. Human beings are good at one thing. And that is holding each other back.
Hit me with another rum boss.
My girlfriend/roommate finally left me alone in this apartment, it feels hollow and I feel awful constantly every time I see anything outside my room. I have to close the door or I basically feel like crying. I know ya'll probably hate the fact that I had a girl for even a brief time but just never move in with anyone, it sucks, and moving sucks too. I just want to browse the web and fuck around but the network is down so im shitposting on my phone. I just want to be in a nice cozy little grotto for myself like I was when I was 13 or whatever but now I've gotta 'man up' and buy all this shit again and do it all over again and I'll probably just lose it all again. I dunno if I can keep doing this. Pic related she took the fucking weed, so I can't even smoke.

How do I get a new family, like one that listens to me and I listen to them and were logical about shit? Do I just end it all? They found my exit bag ready to go and put me in the ER so yeah, next time I know how to not fuck up, fucking parents, going to have to do it in my car. Helium tank, med tubing, CPAP mask, duct tape and my favorite music and alcohol all ready to go under the bed, not sure why they looked there, they rarely touch my stuff.
>>26685268
I'm afraid I arrived too late for the best years, or so I've heard. Glad I'm bringing a bit of it back.
How's this?
>>26685281
It's hard to know, Anon. Lotta people just take you at face value. It's rough.
>>26685321
Hope it ends up for the better, Anon.
>>26685281
Oh, sorry about that. Here's your drink.
>>26685281
Not ripping on you, but maybe it's the way you look? I know in high school I wore the same 10 inch black jungle boots, jeans, and a grey shirt with the white Prussian eagle on it, or a just a plain colored shirt. I had short hair, and was pretty fit, but people avoided me because I was quiet and had a "mean resting face" whatever the fuck that means. They made a judgement without even talking to me.
>"hey man, let me know the morning you decide to do it haha"
>"anon, you know a lot about the holocaust, you participated right?"
>learning about the SS
>"don't get any ideas bro, haha"
I wasn't a Nazi, I just liked the shirt. It fit me and it was comfy af.
>>26685491
Forgot to ask for a drink sorry barkeep. Underage for drinking, but primed for shitposting.
Captain Jack's Spiced Rum, a lime, and some coke.
Just the rum I got the lime and coke. Sorry for the bitchy long post.
>>26685492
Looks great, thanks bud.
>>26685491
That seems really rough. I'm sorry to hear it anon.
>>26685181
kek. I still don't even know I ended up suck in that mess for so long. Just glad I'm out of it now.
>>26685225
Nah just went to school together and got along really well at first, but she didn't see me in that way. I was a real dumbass at the time and I figured she'd come around.
>>26685386
That's rough, buddy. Glad you're out of there.
Enjoy.
>>26685465
You're in good company here, man. Hope you get a break soon.
>>26685491
I don't know man, but I doubt ending it's gonna make you any happier. If you want someone to listen to ya, I'll be 'tending for a while.
Quit my job, which I'm excited about but it means I've go to go back to living frugally.
So gimme some cheap whisky, with a splash of ginger ale and a bunch of ice.
>>26685936
Glad you're excited. Where'd you work?
>>26685864
Thanks anon. Appreciate it.
No no, I don't want to burden you with that. No one likes listening to this shit, even if we mean well it takes an emotional/mental toll on the person receiving.
I'll tell you something happy instead.
There is a girl I met in Uni before my mental break down. I went in a year early to study Biotechnology. My dream was, is, a cost efficient forearm prosthesis with 20+ degrees of motion and response time faster than modern myo-electric EMG based forearms, while being built cheaply (but sturdily). I still dream.
She was the FIRST person in the WORLD that listened to, reciprocated, and genuinely talked to me about stuff, about my autistic ramblings. For a year and a half (few months gap sometimes, my fault) she's kept it up. Whether it be out of pity or guilt, she gave me a spark, not her person or personality or some other "self" bull shit she just made me happy. Being around her made me happy. No need to bull shit. No need for superficial conversation. Sometimes just silence, and that was nice. Now she's off doing better things. I'm going to be alone in life. I'm sure, I'm just a terrible person when it comes to this stuff, but once I make the forearm, I'll show it to her first. Then I can die happy, once its made and she sees it, would like for it to be used though.
So thats the dream man. I'm hitting the sack. Early therapy tomorrow morning. Meds wearing off, can feel my heartbeat rising again, have to sleep before it gets worse.
Thanks for reading, really appreciate it.
>>26686060
Sleep well if ya can, Anon. Best of luck with your dream man, sounds noble.
>>26686024
At a law office. The work was boring and the office was very far from where I live.
I don't have another job lined up right now, but I've been applying like crazy. I've got a lot in savings but I don't want to spend too much of that, so on stuff like booze and food I'm gunna have to be stingy as fuck.
Probably going to buy a box of cask wine and readjust to drinking the shit stuff.
I don't know if anyone remembers me from the other threads, but I started doing push ups and jogging to get ready to join the military.
I honestly feel like this is my only chance at getting out of NEEThood. I'm trying to pick what branch to join now, leaning towards the Navy because I hear they travel the most and right now that sounds ok. I don't know where I'm going with this, if it is going to be permanent or if I am just going to wind up doing this for a couple years then retire back to being a NEET. I'll probably sign up for something in the next few months, I'm tired of just sitting around doing nothing but this all day.
>>26686060
>I went in a year early to study Biotechnology.
Well, fuck that's more than I'm doing. It seems like something that could make a difference in people's lives, and that's a great pursuit. Good luck with that, brother.

How's the exercising going? Don't know much about the Navy, but it's good you've got some plans laid.
>>26679256
Nothing has been happening, I guess that's better than terrible things happening. A Rum runner please
>>26686163
Navy is a good choice, but expect lots of gay jokes from other branches.
>>26686227
That's rough. Gotta keep looking, Anon. Don't settle for not happy.
>>26686236
A little bit of nothing's good. Too much something can get bad fast.

Hello me minus bothering to look through tinder.
>>26686235
Its going ok, not easy to adjust to it because I've lived a pretty sedentary life, but I am getting used to it.
>>26686278
I've actually already gotten a little bit of this from an Army recruiter I spoke to. I'm still pretty undecided on who to join, the Navy just sounds like it'd be nice. Especially the long stretches of being out on the ocean alone.
>>26679256
how does this work? can I start drinking now?
Starting to worry I'm becoming depressed or something.
I've been feeling so insanely irritable recently. Everything sets me off. And tired, and sick, but I haven't come down with anything I just feel physically ill. I have indigestion and headaches a lot. I started drinking by myself a lot over the past few weeks and hiding it from everyone.And I still feel tempted to. Plus I started smoking again. I feel like crying a lot, and just lying around. I dunno, it sure sounds like depression to me.
>>26679256
OP .. I don't know how to tell you this, but he apparently died of cancer.
I'm having one of those days where I despair over the fact that I have another 50-60 years of lonely, meaningless tedium to slog through.
I'll drink anything that's strong enough to make me stop thinking for a while.
>>26686423
>Especially the long stretches of being out on the ocean alone.
I work on ocean-going container ships. I shit you not, long periods at sea are comfy as hell. I don't know what it'd be like on a military ship, but during my free time I got out on the bridge wing with my buddy and we smoke, shoot the shit, and look at the sun ducking beneath the horizon. Out in the middle of the south pacific there is ZERO light pollution. You can see the entire galaxy unfold before you, the entire sky is populated with constellations and the occasional pale reddish orange dot of a nearby planet.
The work isn't that great though. I tighten lashing gear, chip rust, and hose the deck while we're underway. When we make a dock I move lines and pull late-night gangway watch. There's 30 men total on the 900 foot ship I work on, so you get to make some friends too. It's kinda hard to get into now, because there's only around 250 ships left in the US merchant fleet, and the spots usually go to people with experience. But it's worth a shot if you can deal with a small amount of union and certification bullshit.
>>26686631
Hope ya get something to break the tedium soon, Anon.
Does anyone else ever feel like everyone you meet is just full of shit?
Like everything you encounter is just so plastic and fake and everything is an act.
Your pet died? Say this.
You are pregnant? Say this.
You are sad? Say this.
There is no substance anywhere. Everyone is just struggling through life and they are going to act in ways they can't predict but are so predictable.
It's hard to put it in words.
>>26686766
That sounds pretty good
Navy is my back up plan for if I fuck up
My buddy wants to be fucking Neal Armstrong of Mars or something close to that so no navy buds
Qt friend also said the military is her back up
Is this common to have military as a back up
Sorry, Anons. My shift's over, I'm off to sleep.
If someone wants to take over, be my guest. If not, you Anons can help yourself to whatever's behind the bar.
>>26687292
Thanks man. This was a good night, sad to see it didn't get as much business as they used to.

I'll have a porter, thanks barkeep.
Haven't felt this bad in a while. My life situation hasn't changed, I still have a shit-tier job and some failed normie friends to hang with on the weekends, but I guess it's finally sunk in how hopeless it is and how horrible I feel has come to the surface. And now I'm piss fucking drunk on a Monday night, alone. If I had to use a single word to describe it, it would either be 'trapped' or 'despondent'.
