sounds badass, but really it involves a lot of fucking up and pain. but that gives contrast to the comfort that is the endgoal of life for most humans. if you just take everyone else's advice about what to do, you may be comfortable but its boring and you feel no purpose. you have no purpose either way, but tension creates interesting but not necessarily comfortable facets of reality to explore. in fact a lot of the time, the more uncomfortable an experience is, the more interesting it is.
anyways i was thinking about going traveling a bit and then i started to second guess myself because i started to remember the shitty hostels, exhaustion, loneliness, boredom that at least occasionally accompany the experience. and how the fake sort of "gap year" culture is stupid and those people are all faking their "passion for traveling" and they know fully well they will have a kid and a 9-5 within 2 years of returning. but then i thought of all the random cool shit that happened too. it was almost never anything that was planned for. but when you put yourself in those situations, weird or awesome shit can happen. it always does happen, we're just too busy being comfortable normally.
i could go out of my house right now and go find some random people at a bar or something and start conversations with them. maybe i get a new friend. maybe someone irritates the shit out of me and it gives me a funny story to remember later. maybe i get in a fight and get a bloody nose. maybe i weird someone out, or get a date. maybe i walk around and help someone find their lost dog. idk. it would all be interesting tho right?? but none of that shit happens often because room and stuff. the lull of the comfort is strong. it pulls us in slowly over the course of our lives, making us crave it more and more, encouraging us to take another drink or benzo or candy sit down and just let yourself blank out to the tv or something until we start to nod out and the tv become the gently unfolding waves upon the beach of our dreams. until we reach the maximal amount of comfort, death itself. then the game is complete, you've won, you will never have to live with any sort of pain or craving again.
so maybe we need to convince ourselves that there is something about us that must be a certain way because we just couldn't bear it to be different, so that we are forced to take action to rearrange things in our reality so that our idea of ourselves is correct. but that hasn't worked so well for me in the past, and on some level you always know you're bullshitting yourself, so why not just experience discomfort and weird shit just for the experience?

It’s not about actually trying one way or another to follow advice or resist it. It’s fun and entertaining to be abrasive in the right situations, with people who are in on the joke or people who can’t negatively impact your life, but it takes a true man of experience to know or be willing to shut the fuck up and listen. You might learn something. Trick is to be able to distinguish which situation calls for what behavior.
Ultimately, you should just be honest with yourself about who you are, your goals and your capabilities. If you can do that, it’s easy to spot when it’s time for jokes and when it’s time to be serious and show respect to an elder. Not everyone who gives you advice is trying to control you. If you live in that mindset, you’ll destroy relationships and opportunities that could have been immensely beneficial to you.

Your dad sounds pretty chill. My dad once went through my room and found a bottle of bourbon and pictures I printed of gorls asses and he was like.. "I'm taking this away you.. shouldn't have it but at least I know you're not a gay.."

That's the funny thing about subjectivism, it can be used to negate any obvious truth, even when it's right in front of your face. A better word for it would be contrarianism, because really you're just trying to argue that something obvious isn't true so that you look edgy and smart. By all means tho, use subjectivist language to tear down every established foundation this society has, you're gonna fit right in with modernity.
WOW, Mind. fucking. blown.
