2022-08-04 at 8:40 PM UTCI just had a flashback of going to see paranormal activity with my friend, we were too young and they weren't going to let us see it. Then I phoned my dad, I think he was drinking at the time, handed the phone to the guy. He looked worried and went to a superviser or something with the phone. Anyway they let us see the movie.

2022-08-04 at 8:54 PM UTCi posted a clip from pineapple express recently and watching it gave me flash backs to seeing it in theaters.
I used to sneak into sooooo many movies.

grand torino
cloverfield
the dark knight

we also snuck into random kids movies like WALL-E because we were bored teenagers -
2022-08-04 at 10:17 PM UTCLoneliness has followed me my whole life. Everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man.

Originally posted by Obbe I'm isolated even when in a room full of other people.
heard. I have a hard time acting "normal" at work like if it wasn't for the forced interaction structure of economy and society I would probably not talk to many people. I always sit alone at lunch or even when someone invites me to sit with their group im pretty quiet and people always say "you're so quiet man" and i'm just chilling not anxious just not feeling very connected to everyone around me or something idk

Originally posted by Michael Myers I think maybe you are able to feel very happy because you've been through it all and you decided it's not something for you. I don't know what it's like being happy and I have a feeling getting into a relationship wouldn't make me happy per se, but I'd at least think my life has some sort of meaning. Going out to events alone is not something I can do, like going to a restaurant alone, or going to see a movie alone. I would just feel pathetic.
Strange. I usually go out and eat alone, then either go to an event or the movies alone, or I go hike or mountain bike alone. I go out all the time and I do it alone and I like it. I prefer it.
In the past, I actually didnt really like going out with others and always knew I would enjoy it alone.

Originally posted by Kafka The thing about meaningful relationships stood out. Would you say your life has no meaning? I think it’s meaningless without other people.
My life has meaning as far I can think it has. My goal is to make the best of life and enjoy it as much as I can, which I do.
I find other people meaningless. -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Same with going to the movies…I have a problem with paying $20-40 to see a movie in a sticky floored facility with noisy negros fucking with their phones…when I can torrent it for free and eat my restaurant style meal while watching it and throwing microwave popcorn at the cat.
I use my gift cards to pay. -
2022-08-05 at 12:20 AM UTCgoing to the movies alone is weird. My girlfriend used to do that and I think it makes me sad that she never got have the same experience I did growing up sneaking into movies with friends
it's probably "less degenerate" to actually pay and go alone
I would just wait until I can watch the movie at home alone.

Eating alone is chill I like going to a fast food place on a rainy day and getting a wendys chili and just chilling in a quiet restaurant with the rain and thunder pouring down it feels cozy -
2022-08-05 at 12:23 AM UTCthe worst place to go if you are a loner is a bar because you need to interact with someone just to get more alcohol (which is the entire reason for being there)
so your reason for being there is locked behind a social interaction. Unless you order like a pitcher of beer and just sit there and tell the servers and bartender that you're good. Bars are not my scene even with a group I always feel like like a retard and order drinks constantly and complain about not enough drinks
I knew a meth dealer that only sold in THE BAR and I hated it he would be like JUST GET A BEER AND GRAB A SEAT AND CHILL MAN WE WILL DO THE DEAL IN AMINUTE
I would be sitting there and chug like 5 beers twitching shaking winking at random girls that giggle and whisper and laugh and shake their head at me and I have to listen to everyones conversation and i'm STARING AT THE GUY SUPPOSED TO SELL ME DRUGS he is laughing having a good time being friendly making deals and im like COOL PLEASE STOP TALKING TO THEM AND SELL ME THIS BAG and im sure when he "gets to me" it's like oh it's THIS asshole that doesn't want to be cool and talk IN THE BAR like fuck man just sell me the shit PLEEEASSSEE so I can get the FUCK out of here -

I dont eat fast food. For resturants, I usually eat seafood, thai, indian, mederanian, steak, or american breakfast, sometimes mexican or itallian.
I occasionally go drink but its at brewerys or resturants that have microbrews on tap. Ive actually cut back on drinking a lot.
I agree with it being cozy when it rains. -

You aint got any friends at work, no one asks to spend time with you and much like in school, you are a pariah and an unlikeable cunt who has grandoise ideas that never come into fruition due to your lechorous lifestyle & childish brain development. -

Originally posted by cigreting Why can't you go to restaurants alone? I eat somewhere about every other day for lunch alone when im at work. Do you have anxiety or something
I would just feel pathetic. Everyone is always with someone and then there'd be me, an unattractive dude sitting by himself. Also, I kind of have this problem when it comes to ordering. I find it difficult to order food, I just find it cringeworthy to say things like "I would like a triple cheeseburger menu with hotwings and a milkshake." It's weird. I prefer to use a machine so I don't have to talk to the people working in the store. -

I like being by myself in my room but when I'm outside I prefer to be with friends so I feel less awkward. Yeah, so far I haven't met anyone who was happy to be in a relationship and the couple was loving towards one another. Everyone has something bad to say which makes me glad to be single but at the same time I don't have a sexual outlet either which is quite important. Sure I can use my hand and not get bored of it but I do miss out on a connection like that. I can go to prostitutes but there's no love involved, just business. So that's the biggest downside. But then I think "Is sex really that big a deal?" It is only when you are in love with someone but they are with somebody else, so you feel shitty about the thought about them having sex but other than that.. not really, it's not that big a deal. I think, anyway. -
