Motherfucker. This is LA, you know how much easier it would be to find a job? also, when I lived overseas, it would have mad it easier to learn the language over there.

Whites can't be robots. Women of every race want a white bf, contrary to stupid cuck memes. It's way easier to get a gf if you're white. If you manage to be a white "robot", it's entirely your fault.

I just can't fucking do it. I either come on too hard and scare them, or I come off too distant and they just treat me like a friend. I can't seem to strike that balance.

I honestly think about raping girls sometimes out of the frustration of not being able to figure out how to play their game.

I hate myself for having those thoughts and for not having the courage to go out and try and see if I can learn how to play and for being such a failure i wish someone would just end my pathetic life.

Brev just make regular jokes like you would with the m8s but without any self deprication at all. Thats all you need to do. Don't aim it toward any particular goal except with how you treat yourself (no self deprication). Don't try and be cool and distant, just talk to them, make jokes, even sometimes at their expense but not too much. Don't think of "flirting" as a thing, just be confident and interact with girls on a playful level as you would with regular human beings.
>>
>>31262162

It's not fair. I am physically incapable of conversing on the same level as he did. I should've just sat beside her and not been a pussy for once in my life. She seemed interested in me too, I managed not to spill my spaghetti and she tried to keep our talk going. Chad would've sat beside any other roastie and hit it off with her instead.

I'm too demotivated to even try to talk to girls for a while now. I'm so fucking done. Is there any chance I still have?

I had an autistic roommate who lived exactly like this. I did not ever talk to him and only communicated through email because that's what he preferred, by far.

will saying I've slept with 2 ~ 3 women be superior than saying I'm a virgin?

how would girls react to both answeres?

This is punctuated by periods of furious masturbation.

These are real robot hours. When the sky is gray and the night is moonless, you're doing nothing with your life, and the whirr of your computer is punctuated by the ticking of the clock on the wall.

These are the real robot hours, when you step outside as you hear the train rumble through town, just for different stimulus.

These are the real fucking robot hours, when you hear happy people wandering home from the bar, and the music is gone, and you know that this is all you've got.

Since /v/ is a terrible place to talk about video games, what are you guys playing?

I'm thinking of buying a ps4 now that the slim and pro got announced, when a price drop hits here I'll buy the original. I want to play bloodborne and stuff.

On Tinder do you even have to go on a date with the girls or can you just meet up with them for sex?

Do you wish you could experience such beauty and belonging? I do.

Into my heart on air that kills,
From yon far country blows,
What are those blue remembered hills?
What spires, what farms are those?

This is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain.
Those happy highways where I went,
And can never come again...

Art. To preserve the fondest memory or the most haunting nightmares to be remembered in history.

Yes. This falls under haunting nightmares. A dragon is the nightmare of millenniums past.

Masturbaiting into your mouth is the nightmare of today!

All is well.

Art can mean many things.

>>31261537
This is just one style of art. Besides, we have cameras and photoshop now so painting to 'preserve' is an obsolete, pointless thing to do.

>yfw you realize artists' or societies' arbritraily assigned defintions for symbols, culture, art, or intention/muse doesn't make them intellectual, special, superior, inferior, or dull when compared to another and that failure to interprit the aforementioned by their arbritrary defintions can be blamed on the fact that art and culture have no objective meaning and no objective metric for which to measure meaning.

Art and, by proxy, culture can be succinctly defined as self-expression and subjective opinions, ideas, and ideals; and since it's subjective, you can't really objectively compare two forms of art or culture to one another and find one or the other degenrate, inferior, or superior. If you happen to find one culture or art-form to be better or worse you've certainly come to this conclusion due to biases or subjective opinions.

Even using talent, effort, influence, age, history, or original authorship as some kind of metric in which to measure objective worth will fail since these traits have also been arbitrarily assigned worth and have also fallen prey to subjective biases.

We could use MRI scans in an attempt to objectively track how grandly and efficiently an artist's work, an individual art piece, or a society's culture evokes emotions/meanings to the brains of their audiences, but we'd still have to factor in multiple variables for individual audience members -- age, genes, biases, etc. -- that would render the same conclusion: art is objectively meaningless and unrankable; and also, even if we managed to find art or culture that evoked the same emotions at high intensity in people universally, we'd still be biased in saying that said art or culture is good because we'd be assigning worth to emotion and intensity which have no objective meaning.
