I understand why aspies like me just go on a shooting spree. I'm not hinting at anything, but I get why they do it. There is just nothing for us unless we already have money. Our lives are fucking lame by default.
My only actual option is to work at a fucking McDonalds. I'm a 21 year old and my best prospects outside of getting into crypto-currencies and getting lucky is flipping burgers. I couldn't even go for labor/landscaping and get that sweet $10/hr because my body has atrophied from 3 years of NEET-dom to where I'm a fucking stick and my cardio-vascular system is far from optimal.
I don't know what to do. I legitimately have Aspergers and I can't make up my mind on what to do. All of the options are shit. I don't want to have a life that is just average, working as some fucking electrician or whatever. I know that I'm better than that.
I wish I could just restart my life at 16, fuck this shit.

So, what exactly makes you better?
>>29123067
Have you seen the sort of "people" that go into trades? they're manchildren.
>>29122032
I know this feel too well. Finished high school, now just wagecucking around trying to not think about the future.
My parents want me to go into community college and then uni, but I can't seem to find anything to study that I give a shit about. It all just comes down to years of money, time and effort to land an average job for an average life.
I just want to travel or something, but in the end you come back home and you still have no social life, no gf, and no future other than wageslaving to be allowed to live with dignity

Have you ever looked into literally any trade?

Sorry this is a load. Most of those man children you see go into a trade, never even make it after school. It's the smart folks shooting down that can make it big(ish). It's like playing against retards in the special Olympics. You'll always be picked first for the best gig. You can excel while, they might just get by. Then you can always start your own business eventually. Then retards you see getting muh trade will always be just that. If your really a special snowflake you could dominate.
>refuses to work a job someone with a half a brain can be trained in
>but okay with working at McDonalds where someone with no brain can do
First option is usually better pay, second is bare minimum
Explain the logic OP
>>29122032
What a worthless waste of existence you are
>I don't know what to do. I legitimately have Aspergers and I can't make up my mind on what to do. All of the options are shit. I don't want to have a life that is just average, working as some fucking electrician or whatever. I know that I'm better than that.
>I know that I'm better than that.
No. You're not. If you were you wouldn't be a 21 y/o NEET crying about your life on an anonymous image board. It sounds like an "average" life would be an improvement for someone like you. If you want to have anything in life the first thing you need to do is get over yourself.
Community college is fine. If you do well there then maybe you will be able to get in to a big boy college and get a real degree. Don't pick an expensive school though. Only the most talented people should be spending big money on school and you're not one of them.
Also trades aren't bad either. It doesn't matter what kind of people go into trades, they're still making better money than Mr I'm-so-special who works at McDonalds. Maybe if you took a trade you could save up your money. If you're really so special, and if you really end up hating your trade that much, then maybe you can use the money you save up to do something you think is more important like starting a business.
Also I sincerely doubt you have aspergers. Have you been diagnosed by a professional? If not then you are probably just a conceited, narcissistic faggot
>>29123094
I have a trade. Working for my uncle as a plumber. I don't know how I'm a man child for this.
>>29123124
I'm OP and I agree with you.
>I just want to travel or something, but in the end you come back home and you still have no social life, no gf, and no future other than wageslaving to be allowed to live with dignity
This is what really annoys me. Sure, I could sell everything I have and travel around, but at the end of it, I'll have to come home or realize that I don't have anything actually going on in my life.
>>29123412
Is being a plumber gross? I always thought it sounded like a gross job
>>29123397
>Have you been diagnosed by a professional? If not then you are probably just a conceited, narcissistic faggot
I have.
>>29123436
Yeah it can be pretty nasty. We're on call, so in emergency calls its usually pretty nasty and gruesome. Theres dealing with toxic glue for sealing pipes, going into crawlspace covered in grime and dust and cobwebs, and fiberglass insulation....
It's not exactly half-brained work, it just takes a specific kind of worker, and generally plumbers are pretty redneck by the terms.
>>29123611
Don't you have toxic fumes and shit to worry about? I really wouldn't mind being a trademan if I didn't have to breathe shit in that was going to turn me into a fucking retard by 50. Is any of it actually mentally stimulating or is it just business as usual, outlined work?
>>29123790
Not every trade has le toxic fumes
And if you are scared of them just get a respirator
>>29123790
No it's pretty varied actually. Something different each time, much like how each house is different in their own specific way. You have to understand varying dimensions. And yes their are some dangerous fumes that carry a certain degree of health risks. But it's money to me and I know plenty of pain free non-retarded retired plumbers from the union that are age 70+
>>29123877
Sorry I meant *there instead of 'their'
>>29123836
does a respirator actually work?
>>29123897

>>29123907
Funee trole bro.
But whatever if you want to disregard everything I said, and make one vapid judgement on me based on one gramatical error even though you could clearly understand the posts clarity, by all means go ahead. I'm just going to consider you as equally low-IQ as you deem me.
Opposite for me.
I've somewhat been pressured into doing something "intellectual" and right now I'm stuck in college, doing something I couldn't give less of a shit about.
I wonder every day if not joining the military or learning a trade was a mistake. Probably was, but I've started something so now I'll finish it, I suppose.

You see how you're fucking yourself? Dumbass.
>>29125365
HEY STOP IT OKAYy
>>29125365
That's not the same. Going into a trade is a career. Getting a job at a McDonalds is just some whatever thing that you can quit anytime you want and work anywhere.
