| everything The Troops said |
Except my parents aren't dead. They're still alive. And I think he showers more often than me.
I'll probably just live with my parents the rest of my life. When they die I'll live off whatever money they leave me I guess. Seems like a sound plan to me. I can't really stand having to be somewhere at a certain time. And I like going to sleep when I'm tired, if I want, and waking up when I'm not.
I have some friends, and I sort of feel bad sometimes because I don't really like "hanging out," so I think that they think I dislike them for some reason.
If I could do anything I wanted though, then I suppose I'd be a ...mystery solving monarch, of some kind... yeah.
I played lots of King's Quest as a kid. |

Parker, you sound almost proud of that.
I just don't understand how people can want to /not/ do things. There's a difference between "I'm going to live off my parents and play videogames" and "I'm going to live off my parents and volunteer and do art and solve intellectual problems that fascinate me". |
I'm not proud of it, but I'm not ashamed or bothered by it either.
There isn't really anything that interests me enough that I want to spend the rest of what little time I have in this world doing it. If I'm only going to live 60-80 or so years I'd rather do something important or not waste my time at all. So I sit around and read and watch old movies and whatnot, trying to educate myself for enjoyment and just in case I might finally find something worth doing someday.
For awhile I wanted to be a world travelling bum, but I'm not very good at talking to people, so I thought I'd have a hard time with that, and I probably wouldn't fit in with all the hip world travelling bums they have nowadays.
When I did go to college, I tried to see if I could not pay them. I had the money to pay them, I just didn't want to. I figured, "How about I not pay you and you don't have to give me grades or anything, just let me sit in the classroom. How does that sound, huh?" Well they didn't go for that.
Anyway, I appreciate independence and self-suffiency. I just don't appreciate working to pay off bills that never stop coming. I don't want to get stuck in anything. And I don't really need money for anything I want. I can get books from the library, download any film or television show I may want to watch. And I guess I just feel like the minute I start to do something I'd be limiting my options and wasting my time when I could be doing something else, something better, so I just do nothing. Which is also fine with me. |

So what, The Troops is awesome because he's living off his dead parents and I'm just a sad pathetic dude cause I'm living off my still-alive parents? Blast it! If only Joe Chill had murdered my parents as a young boy, then maybe I would find social acceptance among my peers!
And thanks vinculum gate, I had forgotten that I had said the exact same thing in my first post. I'm glad you're here to remind me of the things I've said already.
I just wanted to thank you guys for taking the time to try and understand your fellow man and not being quick to classify and catagorize him like some sort of piece of fucking meat or something! Here I was, all worried about nothing. Assholes. |

| Well that must be some amazing talent or gift you have, being able to understand people by skimming over two messages they've posted on an internet forum then being able to discern whether they are indeed "sad" or not. Actually that's sort of sad in my eyes, which are more important than your eyes, because I bet my eyes are bigger. In fact, I'm known in certain circles as "Mr. Peepers." That's how big they are. |

park, you should chill out. you sound like you're really sensitive about your living situation, even if you play it pretty "oh i don't care either way" so maybe you should stop talking about it here?
also yeah being a constant drain on anyone's resources is kind of a shit thing to do. the troops' lifestyle isn't negatively affecting anyone, really. your parents could probably enjoy their twilight in relative comfort without having to feed you!
then again, i don't know your situation. i'm assuming middle-class, where having a dependent is actually a big deal financially. if you parents are rich i'm sure everything will be fine.
ps calling everyone ignorant when someone presents the idea that your lifestyle is a bit unreasonable to those around you is kind of hilarious |
Well I would appreciate it if people try not to pretend that they are an FBI profiler or whatnot who think they have every detail of my life figured out. I'm not sensitive, I just get a little tired of people who consider living with their parents to be so dishonerable and incomprehensible and whatnot that I must be some kind of degenerate to them.
And I hardly consider myself a burden, I come down every once in awhile and eat some fucking muffins, or cereal or maybe a can of spaghettio's, I'm hardly awake during the same hours they are. Hardly a fucking burden who's crushing the life out of them and preventing them from watching television or sleeping all god damned day.
And I thought it was already decided that this thread wasn't for people in god damned college trying to get jobs. You don't count. This is for emotionless, schizoid machines like myself who can hardly muster enough give-a-fuck to feed themselves, so what are you even doing here other than criticizing other people you consider below you? |
