Hi robutts, I turned 21 today. Is it actually worth doing anything for birthdays? I never found them very meaningful.
>>35397061
How would it be worth it? You could do it any other day as well; given that you're free.
>>35397069
I guess that's true, but I always hear how much people do on their birthdays especially these 'milestones' such as 21, it really doesn't appeal to me that much, although I do feel like I should do something.
>>35397109
because normies love to celebrate ANY little milestone of their lives.
>>35397289
Yeah, honestly never understood that mentality.
>>35397305
The need all the attention to feel special. There is a reason that suicide rates are higher around major holidays and i dont think its robots, but normies who get "sad" and "depressed" that someone they know (such as a sibling or close friend) is getting more attention than they are.

i honestly forgot it was my birthday last year until my mum sent me a text about it. Id honestly rather not be reminded that ive no friends
I dont celebrate them at all - its depressing having a cake or something when youve nobody to share it with. I dont want to be the guy in those pictures.

If that adorable dog's name isn't Venom, the owner should be put down immediately.
Also, no. Birthdays are stupid. I just end up having pie with close relatives because my mom insists on doing something.

Oh and the constant materialistic nature of complaining if they don't get showered in gifts, I got given one gift by a Chinese girl I've been talking to online and I am honestly grateful for the thought but I felt like a bit of burden for accepting it.
>>35397377
Yeah, kinda sucks really. I have some friends I'd just rather not inconvenience them.
>>35397381

Yeah I've already explained that I don't really feel like doing anything.
No, birthdays are just another day anon. Another day in our meaningless, shitty lives that ultimately don't matter one little bit. Celebrate if you want, get drunk, smoke some weed, eat some benzos or painkillers if you want, sit down and play some comfy vidya.
It just means you're older, and you can hear the ticking of the clock just a little bit louder now. Tick tock, tick tock, that's the sound of your life slipping away one day, one minute, one second at a time. Tick tock.

>I am honestly grateful for the thought but I felt like a bit of burden for accepting it.
I feel this too. Whenever someone does something for me i feel indebted and id rather they just didnt so i dont have to repay them.
>>35397429
Yup, that's always how I feel too. Shopping for gifts is really tough, always doubting my own choice.
>>35397429
Whenever someone does something nice for me it is literally physically painful. I deserve nothing, especially small acts of kindness.
>>35397061
you stop caring after some time.
I turned 21 this year too and the last time i celebrated my birthday with friends was when i turned 16.
The houseparty escalated pretty quickly, the attic turned into a room to smoke weed and shisha, in the living room people were drinking and dancing and in the first floor they were making out.
People I've never seen before were there but i didnt care, a door got broken and parents later found weed and traces of fire in the attic...so yeah i got fucked.
If you celebrate do it big and you will have fun memories. But i wouldnt repeat it because its a pain in the ass to buy all the liquor and clean afterwards
I'm 90% sure that my grandma sent the same exact card for my birthday last year...

I would never run a house party in my own house, I've only ever attempted going to one house party before and that was just to buy some weed off a friend then I left and went home to shitpost.
Also parties are overrated as fuck, I would much rather just spend time one on one with someone or a small gathering, way too much going on otherwise.
>>35397641

>>35397679
yeah I agree with that I just felt like doing a big house party once. Now I know the experience got the memories and will never do it again.
