I don't want to watch capeshit and play D&D, or collect Funko Pops. It's all so cringey

Same goes for anime and all that, too. I wish normies would just 'take over' all these dumb hobbies and make them not so embarrassing to like.

That won't stop people from judging you and making fun of you, though.

Why do you give a shit?

Besides, all I see you do on here is judge other people, why do you dish out the judgment when you can't take it yourself?

Literally everyone, lmao. Even some of my nerdy "peers" from back in the day. It got worse by being in two consecutive abusive relationships where I was constantly made fun of.

That, and I have a sibling who is a textbook consoomer and it's embarrassing. All of this shit's just embarrassing.

No, and you made this topic before. This is why you are unhappy; you are ashamed of your own interests.

So he was right then? You are ashamed of them, or at least have a weird complex about the whole thing. You should work on that by asking yourself why it keeps bothering you so much. Probably ties back to insecurity of your own self and the way you're perceived. Or something.

I've always been that way. I've been constantly made fun of and belittled by pretty much everyone in my life.

Topic creator cares way to much about what others think of him and what he likes.

He needs to learn to tell them to eat shit and how lame their bullshit hobbies are.

If you only care about liking stuff because it is cool or you wont be made fun off then youre just a sheep who has no sense of independence or independent thought.

What would "normies taking over" these hobbies do exactly? Why not just ignore people and do what you want... I'm currently sitting in my nerd room writing D&D stuff and not caring if it's "cringey" or whatever...

Then be a sheep and not like the hobbies you actually care about, when you become a real adult you can reflect on this regret later in life.

Seems like you got to them and exposed their insecurities, if they got mad you say awe you angry about your hobbies belittled ??, now you know what its like and if they threaten you tell them if they touch you the cops will be locking their ass up in jail for assault.

This. Ive always disliked other nerds, but more bc of their childish attitudes than what they're into. Its not the hobby its the person. You in particular could be a succesful normie and still be cringe.

Someone, somewhere will always think you are a dork for liking whatever it is you like. Life is too short to live in fear of judgement of everybody else. I am a grown man and I still play Pokemon. If you think I'm a loser for enjoying that, then I guess I don't want to be your friend either. Sorry not sorry.

You can find providers that will help financially either through it outright cost reductions or typically government run facilities have sliding scale pricing.

I've tried before back when things weren't so financially bad and the quality of care was so awful that my therapist would constantly reference hip hop lyrics and plugging her yoga class. I tried to apply for Medicaid but in my state there's a shitload of requirements that I apparently don't meet.

I have seen enough of Cron to know that he isn't made fun of nearly as much as he thinks. He thinks he gets made fun of for simply walking outside. I wish I knew how to get through to him...

Celebrities like Henry Cavill and Idris Elba play video games and like nerdy shit. Rappers are huge anime fans. Everybody loves superhero movies. Its already mainstream. Nobody cares if youre into that stuff

theres definitely a limit to this that I can tolerate. Just find a good group. But it sounds like everyone in your life is pretty crappy from what youve said. So maybe start there. Thatll solve most of your problems.

Really? I know there's groups who play it more like just a game but most groups I've seen or heard actually do the roleplay... Like our group does it... It's just a part of the experience...
