Codename Shrimp Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) My solution to survive the grueling boredom and routine monotony of work week is basically by trying to be a machine until Friday. I hate this. I hate it so much. But i don't think i can stay sane otherwise. I need to shutdown my inner self to not become crazy Edited June 19, 2023 by Shrimpy -Limited Edition- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Oh, c'mon, the protagonist promotion in FE6 breaks if you move it to a different chapter for no discernible reason. Why is this game so annoying... 20 minutes ago, Sooks said: They think that’s bad, you should tell them about Mari.

Well, it was a simple trick, but effective, pretending that the red herring was the actual spoiler. And when you got there, you went "yeah I knew that." And Ruben smiled bigly that day. 6 minutes ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: o7 I will give you one: Enjoy college/university to the fullest! You know, one of the harrowing thoughts I remember from when I was an 8 year old who constantly beat himself up over not having the courage to slit his own throat was this absolute terror that I wasn't enjoying my childhood, because I thought adulthood would be misery without end, devoid of all freedom and meaning. Then I grew up and things only got better for me. What I'm trying to say is, nobody knows what the future holds. So uh... Yeah, ultimately, I agree. Try to enjoy this next step as much as possible! But don't go to the other extreme and assume life will end the second education ends. Sooks doesn't live in Japan, after all. 3 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Well, do go on, don't leave us hanging. Noooo Acacia! 3 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Of course, if your college/university time sucked to begin with... I consider myself better off now that I'm working. Yeah, likewise. I spent three months in college before I realized "oh fuck I'm falling into depression, no way I'm getting the hell out of here." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know how I like my fioritures in text, but in this case it would've been better to skip the details. But uh... yeah. I have vivid memories of sitting in kitchen, feeling sad that I couldn't just do it. Not to worry, though, I haven't had such terrible thoughts in many years.

Well, here's a thought: tax evasion-- Nah but in all seriousness, there's a lot wrong with the modern life. All we can do is take it one step at a time and try to find small joys in life so it doesn't bring us down. I know it sounds like armchair psychologist bullshit, and that's because it is, but well... There's not much we can really do, is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The small walks i take every couple days?
