This post is like in a mirror. Very similar background, ethics and opinion of peers as you. Like you my upbringing and frustration with the education system has pushed to me to pursue ambitious goals rather than ride the entitlement cruise like my peers.
Realize however you're the snowflake in your situation. Like myself, you're driven by a superiority complex (https://analyticalpsychology.wordpress.com/2011/04/08/types-of-psychological-complexes/).
There isn't anything wrong with that, if anything it's an advantage. Realize however you have to set aside your ethics in social situations and be emotionally flexible enough to be comfortable around your peers and vis versa. Personally I only spend time at parties/social situations when I feel it would bolster me emotionally. My work/projects/ambitions are my priority.

I just want to say, back off from Dyslexic people. They legitimately have it hard. If someone is faking it, be as harsh as you want, but any non-bum Dyslexic would kill to not be fucked over like that.

Chill out, Grimey.

nope

Engineers are an order. You need to be qualified to be able to call yourself an engineer.

It's a fucking joke today. Go to Udacity, Udemy. And priate the fucking courses and take the fucking degrees in a less a month.
Current Java EE, Python with Django, Ruby, .Net. If you have good damn logic and understand peopple you are one of the best programmers. But if you don't understant peopple but have a good logic, you will a regular programmer. And if you don't have logic and don't understand peopple just give up. The People will give you a lot of impossible shit to do, and you have to do someway.

No, you get a degree in software engineering. No one's going to hire someone who's 'self taught' if they don't have years of work experience in the field

Sounds like b8 but she should just ghost them.

>>17258328
Post pics of your sister.

>>17258328
Time for her to make a new account.

Well, you really dont give much info on whst you want but it sounds like you're a newbie so get ubuntu.

>>17258327
Kali is not at all acceptable as a desktop os. Whoever reccomemded it is a complete moron. Just use ubuntu or mint it really doesnt matter.

>>17258441
Not even being autistic, ignore tails and parrot also they are absolutely not usable for a person who needs a computer except for specific uses.

Use ubuntu or mint only difference is the gui.

>>17258308

>>17258308
So what are you saying? You are a "cured" trans? Or?

Either way it sounds like you are still unhappy. Not sure how to advise without more info.

>>17258308

Yup, OP. That's that. Onto the next. Don't try and force the issue: it's an enormous waste of time. People are expendable. Find another.

>>17258301
Exactly. She made her choice, don't waste anymore time.

And this is why all religion sucks - because some people take it too literally.

>>17258293
Judging by the /tv/ meme you posted: you are obviously a moron with no hope.

>>17258293
Join the club. Or more, I know what I would like to do but have no methods of overcoming the roadblocks, and I have no plan B.

So I know that feel.

Do you have a job currently to serve as a placeholder and source of income while you figure things out? Or are you waiting for divine inspiration before even thinking about applying anywhere?

No, it's a valid criticism on him as an individual, and says nothing about the whole. However Jews are stinky bum holes and claim that every criticism of any Jewish person is anti-semitic.

>>17258255
To my knowledge that isn't a Jewish stereotype.

>>17258255
This applies to pretty much everything with rules, guidelines, laws, etc. Some people ignore it, some people adhere to it in spirit, and some have massive sticks up their asses and see it as the infinite truth.

Nothing antisemitic about it. Although coming from an anti-religion guy, you could take it as very anti-christian and I wouldn't correct you.

>What do all girls mean when
They didn't all get a handbook or something OP, just watch what she does like a regular human being and respond appropriately

>>17258169
dont forget to bring your own

Also how do I not make my first time awkward as hell
It's probably gonna be this Friday and she's super hot
I don't want the reputation of the awkward fucker and if I do I'm not getting laid ever again

Elaborate.

Did you ever consider that maybe it's not a complex, that maybe you're just inferior and the reason you perceive yourself as such is because you're being realistic.

>>17258154
Short answer: cocaine.

Long answer: become someone that you can be proud of, don't game 24/7, go to the gym, become fit. Working out will make you feel less insecure, and mentally stronger.

Give open, honest speech about your drug experiences. Get A+ grade. Proceed to next assignment.

For what it's worth, i got really bad memory loss too, man. Treatment-resistant depression on my end (the serious kind, fucks memory after a while).

This is why i keep my facebook account around and all that shit. Try checking yours (or any other account), might help jog your memory.

>>17258149
Same here OP, probably the weed, I only can remember fragments of highschool. Maybe better tho because I was a loser.
Well you can make up a story, and if everyone is telling possitive stories you should tell that one.
But if you got balls, you can tell them how drugs in highschool changed your life.

Yes, see a doctor immediately.

When in doubt, ALWAYS go. Never risk it. One screwed up time is all it takes for you to drop dead.

Also that is an extraordinary amount of blood in that mucus, christ.

>>17258127
Sheeeeeeeeeeeit!

Might want to see a doctor, friendo.

Colored mucus means a bacterial infection.

Yes, you need a doctor.

>>17258121
She sounds way out of your league.

Get you a nice fat girl ;)

>>17258121
As soon as you allow her to be out of your league, you immediately lose the game.

Never put a girl on a pedestal ever. It never works.

I remember the first time I met the girl I am currently dating. I tagged along with some of my friends to her 21st birthday. I had never spoken or heard about this girl prior to this, while at her party people were giving speeches. There were a ton of people there.

I was just talking with some of my friends that I came with and about 5 other random guys. They were all talking about how amazing this girl was, how they ALL had huge crushes on her, how guys dont just like her they fall inlove with her. This is no exaggeration it is literally what they were saying them, Now some of them were significantly more attractive than me. Were intelligent and overall great people. I just remember thinking to myself jeez these guys are really strange about this girl, almost obsessive and I told them to never put a girl on a pedestal. They all just looked at me like I was an idiot. What would I know.

Even in the speeches her friends were giving they joked about how much attention from guys she gets.

Anyway I just remember laughing to myself thinking surely this girl cant be that great. I bump into her and I casually start chatting to her later on in the night, I wasnt trying anything as i just thought she gets so much attention from everyone else why would she choose me anyway. Just wanted to see what the fuss was about, so I was pretty much being myself. Confident because I didnt really give a fuck what she thought about me, I just was curious.

We started chatting, found out we shared a few hobbies. Messaged her like two or so days later on facebook about something we spoke about, later asked her on a coffee date and well shit just happened.

Pretty funny how someone as average as me landed the most fucking beautiful, intelligent and funny girl that I have ever met.

No one is out of your league anon. Unless you smell funny, are fuck ugly or are just really creepy or strange.

Been considering it a lot myself this year. (sorry for long post)

Hmm, well. I wouldn't recommend overdosing on pills, because usually you just end up in hospital for a bit.

A big fall would both definitely kill you and be painless. Just make sure it's a huge fall. Doing this on a sidewalk would be kind of a dick move, so I think you should do it somewhere without making anybody uncomfortable.

It's not that much to clean up if you do this, as it's not like your whole body shatters. There'll just be some blood. This type of thing is just another day at the work for the people cleaning it up, so don't feel too bad. They get paid.

I hope you find a solution to your problem before finally doing it. I'm trying to avoid it at the moment. I study all day every day to make myself not think about it. When I'm stuck on something or during the weekends, I usually drift towards depressive and suicidal thoughts, but they don't last as long anymore.

>>17258104
Just look at wikipedia for the most deadly suicide method.

>>17258104
Oh it's ok you'll get better

Your dad needs to pivot.

Stop being like your dad, and help him or leave him.

I can't really give good advice if I don't know what is bothering your dad.

Same here, my friend.

My dad is one of the most antisocial people I know. He has made it clear that he goes out of his way to ruin relationships with his friends and family. I can't even speak to him on the phone.

He retired a couple of months ago, and all he does now is watch movies and complain about how the world is going to shit.

I bought some tickets to a convention related to a hobby that he's really invested in, and he chickened out because he "didn't want to sit through that car ride" and wasn't sure if he could smoke whenever he wanted.

There's a certain point that you have to just let them grow. They took a shit in their own bed, and now they have to sleep in it.

Him 'making things clear' is a call for help/attention. If your really is going through a bad stretch, the best you can do is to make him like are happy and believe in him. It's about raising his self-esteem. The worst you can do is not let him work through it.
