Which Life is Better - Neckbeard or Normie?

[Lune]

I've been both. I've lived for years in my sisters basement off my family's money, spending all my time playing EQ and other video games while collecting many different greasy residues in my beard; no contact with the female gender for years. In many ways a carefree time... no worry about jobs, responsibilities, honey-do lists, just pure hedonism. But also very depressing because all of society basically looks down on you and you begin to internalize that. I was a disgusting gollum-like creature at the worst of it. I did this for most of my 20's. I watched friends and peers from high school and college get jobs, buy houses, and start families.

But then I got my shit together, got in shape, went to a professional doctoral program with excellent job prospects. I met a rich girl that I love and married her.

Now I have a house and, in a few years, a guaranteed high-wage job. I have a great relationship with the girl of my dreams who loves giving me blowjobs. But sometimes I look at my life and at the path ahead of me, waking up early working 40 hours a week, and I can't help but yearn for those neckbeard days, staying up until 3 AM doing Sebilis with my guildies while laughing my ass off in TS. Waking up at 11AM and doing it all over again. For large periods of that time I was truly happy and carefree. The lows were a lot lower, the highs weren't as high, but the baseline was comfy comfy. And I had absolute freedom.

In objective terms I've achieved all the things that neckbeard Lune dreamed about; the things that brought him unimaginable sadness and angst for not having. But I feel now that I've traded a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage, that this life does not fit me. Another part of me recognizes the powerful and near-universal tendency to want what we do not have, and the fact that I was depressed and suicidal back then, and I'm not now.

I know many of you have lived either or both of these lives. Which was better?

[ScaringChildren]

Ignorance is bliss - Normie is better.

Plus sex.

I would vote normie. Having never really been a true neckbeard in the poopsock raiding sense, maybe my opinion doesn't matter. However, you are correct about wanting the things we don't currently have, but that is part of the human element. If you were to do another role reversal, get divorced, quit your job, and be a haphazard layabout, I think you would regret your decisions after a certain amount of time.

Life is all about finding balance and having the control to limit yourself in all aspects, even the things that make you happy.

I enjoyed your story.

[Raev]

Read anonymous conservative, realize that you are an r-selected rabbit with a weak amygdala, and everything will make sense.

[Cecily]

Sounds like your situation has improved a bit. I'm happy for you, Lune! I'm clearing out the neckbeard baggage of my old life atm. I'm finding myself in several states of liminality between me getting older, transitioning, and going back to school. I can't say with any authority that the other side of any of those will be better than the earlier state of being, but I'm operating on faith that they will be. Things are always gonna suck, just differently, but I guess we can change how they suck into something we subjectively think sucks less, like you did. Proud of you.

[loramin]

So you were a child that grew up, and now you miss childhood. I think just about everyone feels this way sometimes, with the only difference being that your childhood lasted longer than most people's did.

But the guy who waxes nostalgic for his high school football days, or the girl who misses staying up all night talking to her friends on the phone, are basically the same as the nerd who lived off his parents and played computer games at their expense. We all miss having the luxury of not having to be adults.

Welcome to the (grown-up) club :)

[Cecily]

Also I've been listening to the overly loud vocal flailing of the local tribe of male and female nerds at school today for a couple hours and that's no way to live. Shoot me before I turn again. Normie wins by a mile imo.

[maskedmelon]

life is suffering. we can hide from it and wallow in the meaninglessness of our existence every time it finds us, or we can face it, shoulder the burden responsibly and enrich other people's lives in the process. be a light ^^

Seems like society has successfully converted you into its tool. And remember the purpose of the state is to serve the ruling class. It's not that 40 hr a week job that makes anyone happy. It's all the things you a deprived of if you don't have that, that's what makes people depressed.

Which I guess could be justified if we actually needed most of the high-paid employees in the economy. But we don't. Most are useless at best. Or they are positions that serve to siphon off wealth from those that actually generate it.

We need to get to that point where your balancing your tendency to want to be a neckberd with your family obligations. Rather than spending most your time working for some wealth extraction operation or as a useless bureaucrat.

This is the kind of thinking that kept me where I was for a long time. The idea that I had figured it out and everyone else had it wrong, that I was only depressed and miserable because other people told me I should be, and that participating in society only meant I was signing away my life to line some capitalist's pockets so he could buy a third yacht.

In many ways I still think there's some truth there, but it's also nice to be a part of a real community of real life human beings. And to tell you the truth having a wife is nice, and the fact of the matter is women want nothing to do with you if you don't pledge allegiance to normie life.

[loramin]

NORMAL women want nothing to do with you if you don't pledge allegiance to normie life.

FTFY. Women are not a monolithic species.

I'd have to assume everybody reading this thread was in the same boat at some point.. I also went down a similar path after high school.. Skateboarding and smoking weed was my life. Thank god i had fantastic parents, i for sure woulda gone off the deep end if i followed my friends. Eventually i realized i enjoyed video games and undisturbed free time, more than i did parties. So eventually i stopped going out with friends. Opted for video games instead. And skateboarding when i did want to go hang out.. so video games saved me, but then it got carried away.. Didn't do anything but game, skateboarding was a thing of the past. I gained weight, and all those thoughts you mention, slowly filled my head, i felt like a piece of shit. Somehow friends getting laid on the weekends, and their drug use seemed like the right thing to do, and i was the one who had problems.. Then the need to become a "normie" hit me. Exercise became my vice. Healthy eating, and finding a girlfriend was my priority.. To this day, it was the correct path to take. And although i miss dungeon days of gaming, it's not healthy.. And if and when i feel the need to grind a serious game day? I take a day off work :) I earned that day off work :) Sorry, feel free to TLDR! Love ya'll!

not a communist but the ideas of it are extremely depressing. i think that's part of the hook, some people like feeling bummed out all the time. magnified by the improbability of it ever happening lol.

Reading this post has helped me realize how women are largely responsible for this brand of mega capitalism that exists in America.

Look -- working for Negan is better than getting your brains bashed in or spending your life running from the saviors. That doesn't mean Negan isn't an asshole that set up and entire system for his own benefit.

People a rough time with this one. It's like if something is benefiting them personally -- then it couldn't possibly be all bad could it? Well, yes. Yes it could still be a bad thing. Even if its your best option in life.

All I'm saying is you can criticize capitalism for what its doing to you and other people -- and still play the game so you can do the best you can for yourself.*

You can raid dragons on p99 and think the stupid race-up poop sock system is retarded and say so on the forums.

But unfortunately, people tend to take the bait and use whatever they can as an opportunity to feel superior to others.

*At least we used to be able to. I'm not as sure now that we have big companies tacking all your browing history and comments and creating little profiles on everyone.

I just want to take a min to reflect a common type of guy I see. They go through a period of involuntary celibacy throughout their 20s. It's lonely and their miserable because really they just want a simple existence. A sense of progress, a static female partner, and not too much stress.

Finally they get to that age where your brain starts to develop into a fully adult one (28-30 or so) -- they start reflecting on their life and truly taking accountability for their role in the way their current life looks.

So they do something, usually getting a job and getting in shape or both -- then they find a girl. They usually meet a girl who has dated a long line of losers that were "hot" and "fun." Otherwise, the more lucky guys meet a girl more like them that also took awhile to develop...but sense the bar is so low for women (look fuckable in your 20s) -- this girl is pretty uncommon.

They immediately pledge themselves fully to whoever this girl is -- and live their lives completely around this girl. Trying to please her all the time and plenty happy as long as they get laid once in awhile.

I haven't seen how this ends for most my family and friends that fit this profile. But I got to tell you -- I'm not optimistic. It looks to me that often the girl is put on a pedestal she won't be able to live up to. She'll get used to getting spoiled...but you're unlikely to keep up the spoiling behavior for the rest of your life.

I predict a bitter marriage where a kid comes it at some point to give the relationship meaning. The kid proceeds to be neglected like their parents were -- and the cycle repeats.

Meanwhile this dude eventually gets a southeast Asian trophy wife that takes half his shit or some other nonsense late in life compensation maneuver that ends badly.

Again this is all guesswork. But what I'm sure of is the women these guys find are extremely mediocre. They tend to get with these types of nice guys probably because they are the only ones left that treat them like princesses in their 30s/40s. Most of them have that ex-hot girl syndrome where they are constantly annoyed people still don't treat them like they did when they were fresh out of high school.

Edit: I guess what I'm saying is you should ask yourself: "Is this girl really some kind of special girl I found?...is it more that I finally found a girl for once in my life that wants to be with me?" Remember that after you improve yourself. You don't have to go back to crying and beating off alone. You can just find another girl. And it gets competitive among women as they get older for halfway decent guys. That medicore looking mailman starts looks pretty appealing to a woman in her late 30s.

Shallow, douchebag, ex-man-whore who refuses to commit is more my speed.

My friends laugh because I can still shotgun a beer through my nose but they have to leave at 7pm to tuck their kids in.

I then scroll through my phone, trying to find the one last girl I haven't pissed off permanently.

Then I go home and fall asleep alone, spooning my dog.

I occasionally look up at my closet where my 9mm is and laugh at myself because if that happened, then who would feed my dog?

When my dog dies, all hope will die with him.

While I truly am happy for you, physical therapy isn’t worthy of saying doctoral. Don’t get too big for your britches there. You’ll never be persian rich

As for the wife and love, if you actually know what the L word means then “normie” is far better. A good woman makes life worth living. Everything else is shadows and dust

No, it's not. I usually just say grad school but I was trying to be more specific. The pay is horrible compared to the cost of school, too. But I was fortunate enough to get to pick something I enjoyed without worrying too much about the cost. When I said I was living off my family's money what I meant was I was born Persian rich.

Persians may be rich but they'll never be "let's build a nuclear weapon" rich.

lol. comic is funny, but topic isn't really. pathological thought is not something to be taken lightly or ridiculed.

melon's generalized steps to happiness:
1. Question yourself
2. Recognize and surrender to the truth that you are a piece of shit
3. Recognize you are a piece of shit with a few good traits.
4. Decide you do not liek being a piece of shit.
5. Leverage your few good traits to initiate productive behavior.
6. Work to minimize or mitigate your overwhelming set of negative traits in the smallest ways possible, baby steps.
7. Assume responsibility
8. Become needed

we're liek mules (particularly if equipped with cockenballs) and cannot be truly happy or grow without sufficient load.

Guy told me the other day, “If you’re not stressed, you’re depressed.” That was certainly an accurate description of my life, but I do chalk up unwillingness to do -anything- and lack of sun exposure as a major contributing factor to me looking 25 still. I feel like I’m there mentally as well, for better or worse. People comment on how young I look, often, but I suspect the stress of the upcoming years will age me quickly. If all goes well, I’ll have access to middle class white woman anti-aging snake oil solutions, so I’m not too worried about it.

I’m gonna go with the resident Asian on pho

Hope that helps

Resident P99 Asian here! Chicken will always be my go to.. In her defense, i'm japanese, sooo my pho expertise is really non existent. And in school, I was always exluded from the asian crew, never asian enough... My white peeps adopted me, took me in, taught me things like skateboarding, smoking weed, wearing shoes inside the house, and pogo sticks, Halo and of course, EQ.... I love white people :)

God I hate shoes on in the house, and it’s definitely true that only white people are retarded enough not to realize how disgusting that is
