Current Events > A guy on r/NEET says he's "getting sick of this shit"

Yeah it's was really cool for the first month or two, almost like a summer vacation I hadn't experienced in four years since I graduated high school.

Flash forward about eleven months and video games are getting stale, movies and anime are getting boring, tbh the only thing that really puts me in a better mood is getting up and doing chores around the house (ie. work).

Also I smoke a lot of weed I think that helps (?)




Definitely I look at my peers and old friends from high school graduating university, getting married, moving on with their careers and having children. And then I look at myself sitting in my moms basement playing video games all the time with no life experience at all besides working a couple shit jobs in the past.

The thing is, I want to change. I wish I could be like them but I don't know where to start or what to even do at this point. I feel like I'll be stuck in an endless game of catch up and turn up more miserable than before.

Waffles or pancakes?

I'm having a difficult time believing he's not just applying for jobs at this point. We want to be idle, but not bored. And he's living that revelation here.

Why the fuck are you so obsessed with NEETs
---

Yeah, the NEET lifestyle isn't as glamorous as one might think. It's actually pretty fucking boring and you can get stuck in a rut that's hard to get out of.

why even go on that subreddit

This guy constantly posts about NEETs and their subreddit, it's his gimmick

Does anybody else always read "NEET" as "Near-Earth Extra-Terrestrials" or is it just me being weird? >_>

Nevermind. It's probably just me being weird. Carry on.

"A guy ", eh? TC is the guy

The grass is greener and all that. When you experience little of something, an excess of it seems like it'd be the best. Other than a day or two off at a time, I haven't taken a week's vacation from work in over 10 years.

Yeah sitting around playing video games and drinking is one of my favorite past times, when I get free time. But I think I enjoy it as much as I do because I don't do it 24/7. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if I get bored with nothing at retirement age. Granted I am fit and able to do otherwise.

What is NEET?
---

A reclusive life style is just plain unhealthy. We should do stuff beyond sitting on our ass alone in the basement. It doesn't have to be social. Go outside and wander.

What is NEET?

Not in Education Employment or Training

Sounds like he needs to get off his lazy ass and get a job.
---

I was unemployed for 3 months after moving and that was not a fun time.
