Thread Dedicated to Life Rants

Hello Lounge.

Today I find myself ranting about life.

I'd like everyone to participate.



Let me begin.


If you don't already; one day you'll work 50 hour weeks... for months on end. You're going to wonder where the year went. In that fast paced life full of stress and hard work, you can't quite remember what you did of actual worth. Now you're 25... 26... 27 ...30. Maybe you helped a couple of people- maybe you made a nice purchase or achieved financial security for a bit- but really, if you took that all away, you'd still be there... looking for some sort of actual happiness / self-worth. You're slowly working yourself to your own inevitable death.

Finding meaning in life is tough. Look at how people jump into relationships to cover their own flaws and settle for a life of mediocrity to appease the critical mass. In the end they wake up next to a woman who also settled for you and a job that helps achieve another man's dream and you realize- ****, you're mortal and you die. And when you're on your death bed in the ultimate state of negative ****s and realize how much you could have had, had you lived for you and not someone else- well, that's troubling.

Yes. I can. It sounds terrible. Wouldn't you agree?

Speak for yourself. I love work and take almost any overtime I can get. Double bubble baby, I like the money. I still get lots of days off and have no problem with working 2 weeks straight. That's the beauty of 12 hour days, some people hate em, I love em!

You're over thinking it skip; stop complaining and get on a jet ski

I never rant about my life because I live by a motto.

Yolo.

Life is a mediocre brand of cereal that gets soggy too quickly. Rant over.

I made tacos last night and forgot to put the cheese back in the fridge afterwards, thus ruining a nice piece of Monterrey Jack. My life is so ****.

It's not that bad. I like the cinnamon kind a lot.

Happiness is the goal in life, unless your happiness comes at the pain or misfourtune of others.

Happiness cannot be created nor destroyed. Isn't that an axiom of the universe?
