MrNintendo1213 10/29/19 1:27:09 AM #2:	Similar for me. Except instead of feeling like a waste of time, I'm just bored and depressed and feel like I won't be able to fully pay attention to good shows. So instead I put on bad shows or sitcoms while I just read stupid bs on here or reddit. Right now I have on The Flash and I'm playing Skyworld Kingdom Brawl on the Quest while I post here while I'm waiting for a match. More people need to play that game. I'm literally number one in the world right now, and no one ever beats me. I got to about 110 wins and 54 losses before I just stopped losing almost entirely. Now I have like 293 wins and only 65 losses. So 11 losses and 183 wins since I started winning a bunch. The game isn't even that hard. Anyway tv takes a long time to watch and it is hard to get motivated to feel like dealing with so many hours of sitting and paying complete attention. --- Dot Dot Dot... <cite>MrNintendo1213 posted [p:929373119] in man I real...
