How is your life? - Be honest, we're all friends here

[ERROR_ENTRY]

There is a negative stereotype on the internet that the people who frequent forums like this are:

• Neckbeards
• Loners
• Autistic
• Virgins

etc.

Life is more complicated than simple stereotypes. This is the thread to let us know: how is your life actually going? Is everything going your way, or are you facing times of struggle? Need a second opinion on your troubles? We'll hear you out.

I know we have a general discussion forum, but this will be taken seriously (as based on forum rules)

Me personally, I'm waiting on a response for an interview. I had to do an odd personality test and playing the waiting game isn't fun, but the line of work I'm in (programming) means that I don't have to try too hard to at least get to the interview stage. What about everyone else?

it's pretty good, I hate my job but the pay good and my girlfriend is about as warped as us. I quite like my new flat and being involved in local politics makes me feel less alienated and powerless than most of my peers.

I am starting back up in school this fall. Things got fucked up this past spring to the point where I wasn't sure if I'd ever be able to finish my degree. But I'm picking myself back up and trying again. I hate how long it's been taking me and how circuitous my path has been. But this time I have friends who are helping me along the way, and I finally have a place where, at least sometimes, I feel like I belong. As much as some of this shit sucks, I have to admit it's better than it was.

A few people told me I couldn't do it. I am eager to prove them wrong.

I've been working a new job for about a month and a half now and I really like having a steady influx of cash. I'm going to be entering my junior year of college and my class is going to go on a trip to Yellowstone at the beginning of the year, which I'm really looking forward to. I've been in a relationship with my girlfriend for about nine months now and it feels like its always getting better because we've gained a greater understanding of each other since we started dating. She's currently about three hours away from where I live and is coming back next month for college.

On the flipside one of my friends recently died by jumping out of a car on the freeway, and I've been feeling really sad about it the past few days.

Eh, not so bad. Married, homeowner, in the early stages of working for myself. Mainly just struggling with training a dog we've had for a total of one week. I've never owned a dog prior to now, and he's a rescue, so has a few minor issues to work through first.

Damn, did he intend to kill himself doing that or were there other circumstances?

Yellowstone is really nice, I wish I could visit it but I'm not from the States and I have fuck all money to travel right now.

 

[Overcast]

Well I've passed a state exam and now able to apply for office assistant jobs for the state. So hopefully I'll land one soon and begin making a decent salary. The job I'm in right now kinda sucks, but at least the co-workers are cool.

I've had a few not so great things happen over the past year, but somehow I'm still trudging on.

I have no idea what his motivations were as of now. He never struck me as the suicidal type, so it would be extremely surprising if that were the case.

It's pretty nice! I take care of my family, live in the country-side of a wonderful European country, I own my own business.

 

[Some JERK]

My life is going well; I have no debt, and comfortable amounts of both disposable time and income. I greatly enjoy the work I do, and I'm good at it.

Thanks for asking.

I'm all of these.

I'd second this if I knew what the female version of a neckbeard is. Ladybeard? I dunno.

Got some personal struggles to chip through, though I don't know if I'm really going anywhere with it. For these last few years, I had told myself that if I could smile and/or laugh at least once every day despite how stuck I might be, I'll find a way to push through eventually. Seems to be working, I think, but it hasn't been as quick as I would've liked, so it's more like a "tomorrow's another day" mentality.

At the very least, I got family with me. I don't know where I'd be without them.

They're called "Legbeards" because the stereotype this time is that they don't shave their legs

 

[Tragi-Chan]

Yeah, it's alright.

Ah, had it in my head that was just another codeword for a feminist. Good to know I'm not that stereotype, then. Life's looking up a little slightly more there.

It was pretty shitty a few weeks ago, but I found someone really good, and it turned out great. So life is good. Smoking a cigar, drinking wine, and listening to the cars go by.

 

[Morose_Obesity]

The sweetened beverage tax prevented me from buying fucking unflavored club soda AND unsweetened tonic water recently (computers are fucked), and they cancelled byo cup day at 7-11 because of it.
Well that and that store's staff seems to be functionally rëtarded.

The fucking cunts that came up with this will be voted out of office asap. You do not fuck with a man's tasty beverages.

 

[Broseph Stalin]

Things are going alright for me. I'm hunting for a job out of town since I plan on moving pretty soon. Also I've gotten back in contact with an old friend of mine from high school. Things are pretty good.
