Damn, that early?

Don quixote the impossible dream.

Yeah

This nihilism thing has gotten so fucking stale and cringe. Read Camus and move on with your life, faggot.

>>211667860
>Camus was politically active; he was part of the left that opposed Joseph Stalin
shant be doing that

Which book should i start with?

>>211667381 (OP)
Not, actually

>>211668040
Just read the stranger and myth of sissyphus. Watch some youtube videos about absurdism. Talk to an LLM about it.
Maybe learn about just how faggy nihilism and hyper-rationality are from dostoevsky.
(((OPTIMISTIC))) NIHILISM IS NOT A REAL PHILOSOPHICAL FRAMEWORK.

For someone like Craig yeah. He wasn't a Chad and probably a loser in High School. He was a district manager for Lucky Aid but screwed that up some how.

Do all Americans pronounce Craig as Creg or is it just the region the show is set in? What causes it?

>>211669028
Not so much. I've read stuff from all sorts of schizo old men and absorb whatever i can into my own philosophical framework. There's plenty of good stuff written by schopenhauer and nietzche but just pick and choose whatever works for you. Build your gospel by stealing shit from whatever source you want. Or just pray to dead kike on a stick, it really doesnt matter, though jesus was wise tbf.

>>211669261
It's typically pronounced Cray-Ig in the states.

>>211669276

My parents do the same thing. They forbid me from hanging out with friends or doing any normal teenage stuff so I became a recluse and have no clue how to make friends

it has always been "krEHg"

>>211669415
Get a job, work towards moving out, stop making fucking excuses. Blaming your parents is some straight pussy shit. There's tons of people who had a life like yours, including me. I didn't really make my first friend until I got a job in my early 20s. From there I got laid, made more friends, moved out, etc.

I turn 23 in a week and I've never had a job and am too embarrassed to apply for one because I know I'll get rejected. I had a university offer after high school but deferred it until it lapsed because I wanted to play video games. I don't have a license or a car. I have physically let myself go but struggle at developing new habits so I can never stick to a workout regiment past a couple weeks. I've never had a girlfriend, or any female attention in general. I live with constant shame.

What do, bros? I don't want to kill myself.

idk this sounds like bullshit chief

>>211670597
Get a job you retarded lazy nigger. Any fucking job, McDonalds even. Then get a car and move out. Stop eating so much and start lifting you fatass. Jesus I thought I was a loser at 24 but at least I've got that stuff sorted.

>>211670597
We live in a different age where 25 is closer to being 21. You're not behind and everyone grows at a different pace. Think about the fact that ten years ago you were only 13 and barely going through puberty that really wasn't a long time ago and you've developed considerably and been bombarded by hormones. As far as trying new things get out there and do it. I applied at like twenty places till I got hired at a shitty fast food place at 19. It sucked but I learned a lot and met some cool people.

>>211670889
as in it isn't in the show?

>>211669028
What do you think NPC even means? It doesn't mean people who read Camus, dumbass.

>>211671068
People unable to form their own opinions are by definition NPC. Reading means nothing if you can't independently think about it.
What if you didn't have breakfast this morning, anon?

>>211670838
>>211671004
They were invited but Reese didn't know they were going to take over the garage he just thought they were going to all party.

>>211671068
No he was fine in his assumption. You arguably are an NPC if you read camus and then decide to treat his word as definitive truth. You yearn to be an absurdist, to be part of absurdism and one with all the other absurdists. Camus spoke and he spoke nothing but trvthnvkes.
There really isnt anything wrong with that if it improves your life. Strength in numbers. Most people arent gonna keep going back to church if theyre the only one that shows up each week.

>>211670930
>a different age where 25 is closer to being 21
Its not that simple and its about to get way worse.

>>211671506
Because being vague is a clear explanation. You a trust me bro type?

>>211670610
I dont hang out on /lit/ so i dunno what you guys consider deep. Is he baby first because he didnt write 1000 pages of his own schizo interpretation of how metaphysics works? All that stuff is hobby philosophy for people actually interested. It has no practical use for treating nihilistic depression.

>>211667381 (OP)
I found out yesterday that the fat guy from Malcolm isn't the same fat guy from Seinfeld

>>211671506
Yeah just trust me its complicated.
The entire concept of what "work" even is, at least on a grand societal scale, has been under threat by automation for decades now. This LLM shit isnt new but it is way more serious.
Also the economy is fake and the jobs are fake. Dont ask me to elaborate.

>>211671841
This was For You >>211671574

>>211671841
It's always been complicated you're just using cop out arguments. The invention of the alarm clock put people who made a living off of waking people up for a living at certain times out of business. Invention of the printing press but scribes who copied books out of business. Invention of the cotton gin put the job of picking cotton out of business. Fake or not you still need money to function in society in some capacity or another and most people get that money by doing a job.

>>211667860
i read chewie louie and developed a faustian spirit in the manner that chewie louis had

>>211672038
No dude, you don't understand, full automation is coming any day now and the government is going to hook up up to heroin masturbators paid for by UBI. Marx predicted this.

27 here. Dropped high school and I only worked half a day at a few shitty jobs. Still living with my old mom spending my days on the computer, lifting weights and occasionally go longboarding and drink at a friends house. There's nobody more of a loser than me. Hope you feel better about your life now

>>211672131
How do you have a friend? Not meming on you, legit asking? Legacy from highschool or...?
Don't see it getting past the "So what do you do?" "Fuck all." stage.

>>211672094
At best we're 50 real years away from anything close to what you're talking about even then you're full of shit in terms of how it will work. The world is so insanely huge and there are small towns and bumfuck nowheres connected to nothing. The right hand doesn't even know what the left hand is doing and you're convinced they're gonna hijack humanity?

>>211672038
>>211672094
Im not a marxist nor am i pro-ubi. UBI hands over control of the economy to the government, does literally anyone with a triple digit IQ think thats a good idea?
My point is that the system is poisoned and failing. Are you saying that the only way forward is to double down on the fake economy and just keep inventing jobs where you are paid to do nothing? How is that fair to people who actually DO work hard for their money like tradesmen? What does the oligarchy stand to gain by keeping pointless jobs around?

>>211672187
he's a step-sibling

>>211672094
>>211672302
Youre being very sensationalist.

>>211672313
There is no realistic way to return "real jobs" (I assume you mean manufacturing?) to the West, the genie was out of the bottle the second Deng Xiaoping secured the role of paramount leader.

>>211672313
I'm not advocating for pointless jobs being kept around and the system has always been poisoned to one degree or another. You cure one type of poison a new one makes its appearance and is harder to cure. The only thing the Oligarchy gains by keeping pointless jobs around is creating a means by which people can live ok to mediocre lives, pay them enough to keep them alive and pay their bills but not enough to keep them happy and they're less likely to revolt.

>>211672332
Understandable.
>>211672131
Why do you measure your worth based on how efficient of a cog you are in the machine? You're healthy, you work out, I'm assuming you keep yourself clean, what esteem do you gain from flipping burgers?

>>211672374
I'm the second one and the only way that anon will understand is if you speak in terms they themselves are implying which is the sensationalism you're accusing me of.

>>211667860
Camus is unreadable

>>211669261
Wait til you hear how we pronounce "said"

>>211669502
That story was entirely made up tho

>>211673007
I presume you don't pronounce maid as med or paid as ped though.

Don't listen to people telling you to get a job, it's a Jewish scheme to turn you to a slave and waste your time

I don't understand how you self-pity wallowing fags have no drive or ambition to do anything. I come from a very standard whitebread middleclass family like Malcom and am completely unexceptional but I could not stand being a complete loser who works menial jobs and is chronically online with no IRL friends in my late 20s and early 30s. What the fuck went wrong for you all to be like this? I am legit an autistic retard but spent most of my late teens and early 20s learning how to make friends and talk to girls.

Still can't land a job. Shit's fucked.

They also pronounce Graham as Gram.
Honestly I don't know why they mock the bongs for their pronunciation, theirs is every bit as silly.

When your parents die you're going to be homeless

>>211670838
You should kill yourself.

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause
And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star

Never give up.

>>211672131
Sounds like winning to me.

>>211667860
Are you 19 years old? What kind of retarded faggot believes that "nihilism" or rather fundamental disappointment with one's life is something to be batted away with a book everyone has heard of and which has long entered the realm of cliche and platitude, especially on the internet where it has been shilled relentlessly for at least a solid decade? There have been millions of teenagers like you who have just finished reading Camus and Nietzsche (and nothing else, either, which is why you misspelled Sisyphus as "sissyphus"), and believe that the basic human experience of measuring up one's life that has passed with one's youthful expectations and finding it has come up short in that regard, is ridiculous or some kind of philosophical error because you are not old enough for that to have happened to you yet. Camus is a retarded faggot. No amount of retarded already performed to the point of collective nausea for anyone above the age of 19 abstraction of one's life into pithy advices regarding "accepting the absurd" or "imagining Sisyphus happy" is going to change anything -- only a moron could be tricked out of feeling a perfectly natural feeling under the false assumption that it's primarily a philosophical or abstract one, or that it's somehow not a basic and probably accurate sentiment for people who have actually lived and aged and not merely thought about living and aging, as teenagers do.

>>211670200
>Blaming your parents is some straight pussy shit.
It's ok to blame people who are responsible. It's also ok to take responsibility for the things that you are responsible for. These are not mutually exclusive things, blame and responsibility are only merged together in women's thinking.
Not blaming the correct people and taking responsibility regardless is how you end up in the cuck chair as people walk over you.

I got super lucky in life and found my way into a job that has lots of traveling. Every few months, I move to a new state, make new friends, and have a completely different backdrop. I don’t always go to nice places, sometimes I’m in really shitty parts of the country and the people I work with can be dicks, but that’s just how it is
It keeps things new and exciting just enough for me to not get bored and wanna kill myself.

a lot of neets that haven't worked a day in their life suddenly reinvent themselves and flip their life around and start working like the busiest little bees ever around 33.
if they get jobs, so will you. just stop being an insecure self-doubting little boy.

21 for me, that's when I realized I was studying a dead end degree I didn't give a fuck and that I was an outcast, and most likely that fallback friend you resort to when nobody else is available.
Now I'm 36, wizard, live with parents, have a decent job as programmer because at least I'm not stupid, and just live life on autopilot.
I'm pretty sure I don't enjoy anything at all. Whatever I don't do in order to cover my basic needs I do for escapism.
My main hobbies are reading, writing, fishing... does getting drunk counts as a hobby? It probably does.
When it comes to socializing, it entirely revolves around drinking. I don't really hang out with you, I hang out with a couple of pints, maybe a whisky sour, you just happen to join us.

I go to military bases to look for trash before a construction crew comes out there.
