>>38494784
Not OP, but I think I understand. There's something to video games that anime, music, and walking can't replace. They offer reward structures, a strong sense of progress, and they send you on complicated adventures. In other words, they're a pretty good surrogate for real substance in life.

>>38494359
>stopped playing video games

It's called growing up, friend. Now if you stopped watching anime all together and replace it with books your life will be better.

>>38494904
Oh I see. I remember how exciting and absorbing video games were as a kid but now I'm a jaded asshole and they feel like a chore. If OP wants a strong reward structure, setting clear goals for his guitar practice might be good. For example "everyday i will learn 8 bars of this piece" or something

>>38494951
>books

the most boring mind numbing way to entertain

I'd rather fucking shoot myself

>>38494951
You should grow up and leave 4chan too, friend.

Buy ETH
It filled the void for me

>>38495002
Haven't been here for years, I'm just waiting until my flight arrives.

>>38495057
Shouldn't you be reading a book instead?

>>38495097
Don't have any at the moment. Would normally talk to my friends or gf, but they're most likely sleeping.

At least u can do those things all I can literally do is drink and go on 4 chan everything else is boring

Was a robot about 6 years ago until I decided to improve myself. Funny enough that it took a self-improvement thread to get out of this hell hole.

>>38495192

And now you here to humblebrag because you're a terrible person who needs to shoot fish in a barrel.

>>38495216
>humblebrag

At what point am I being humble? I don't give a fuck about people who don't want to improve themselves and would rather make these "tfw no gf" threads.

>used to play pic related a lot all day in 2010 when I was in 8th grade

Now I can't play it because all it does is remind me of all the time I wasted playing in middle school and in high school. I could've actually got good grades and get a social life but my younger dumb self was too busy playing this stupid fucking game with libturd Eurotrash players that still think rage comics are funny and poo in loos with shitty internet.

>>38495247
this isn't a "tfw no gf" faggot. I hope your plane crashes into the ocean

>>38495253
It's good anon. I feel like it need a steadier rhythmic pulse though. It feels a bit aimless at parts. Otherwise it's a good start to a piece

>>38495282
>brag

Tell me at what point am I bragging, friend? Is it because I said the forbidden g word? I gave you a reason why I'm here.

*"tfw no gf" THREAD is what I meant to say

>>38495320
Don't be sorry I'm the same way. Do keep developing the piece though I think it could be very good based on what you have so far

>>38495320
Get yourself a busking permit for your city. That'll fix your anxiety up right quick.

>this isn't a "tfw no gf" faggot.

I know this isn't. I'm just commenting on how people would rather make stupid threads like that instead of doing something about it.

Wow anon were so glad you're here

What thread would you prefer to have? Cuteboy/femboy threads? Vagina envy threads? Chadposting threads? Normieposting threads?

I am actively doing things that are "self-improvement" but deep down it feels unfulfilling. Why?

>>38494904

This guy gets it, it's because there doesn't seem to be a tangible goal, instead it's just aimless grinding of real life.

>>38494359
How about a gf and a job? That pretty much fills the void

Nobody wants me to work for them. I've been fired from every job I ever had. I am destined to be a NEET. At least I have a 16 credit course load this fall.

I don't have a car anymore and I can't get a job because I don't have a car anymore.

How is this bad?
>wow I read books I'm so cultured compared to you plebs
I've known people who reads books from this board. What's the problem of gaining more knowledge?
>I don't have any books on me but look I have a gf AND friends!
Like I said, I'm waiting for my flight which should be here at 8:00.
>I'm too good to post on 4chan but just this once I'll grace you with my presence losers
I bet many people from this board would want to improve themselves and some have started already. Like I said been a robot before.

I know that feeling, until I've thought about the long term goals. Trust me, keep going or else you look back at yourself and regret not doing anything while you still had the chance.

>>38495545
You act like you're so much better than everyone here because you're a normal person and we should be so grateful for your simplistic advice. Could you please just leave? OP seems like a nice guy who's just trying to have a nice thread

>>38495545

>Like I said been a robot before.
>Still posts on r9k

Quit fooling yourself. You're still a fucking robot you fucking clown.

>>38495355

What kind of music do normies even like? I always thought they would just want some pop songs with singing and simple chords. I might consider it since nobody wants to hire me.

>>38495637

>>38495657
That's cool. Maybe some people just need a break

Video games are still fun, its just that everybody is a toxic little shit.

Video games are enjoyable to me still but only certain very specific ones. I remember I used to be enamored by just about anything I picked up and play for hours on end. Now I get bored by most games and have to take breaks often. Anime is still top tier it's just about finding the right stuff.

>>38495655

Back to you, fucking delusional cunt.

>>38494967
sad but true, I can only truly enjoy a novel if it's masterfully written. I'm basically limited to classics as nothing that good has been written in the last half a decade.

>>38495044
>ETH filled the void
Yeah, because if you didn't buy in May or before you should really hang yourself now. Gets rid of the void 100% of times.

>>38494359
Hey doesn't sound like that bad a life Anon. Better than what a lot of normies do with their time. My life isn't that much different except I read and fuckaround on the internet instead of Anime

>>38495545
I bet your definition of robot is wah can't get a gf but you were otherwise normal and had friends etc.

>>38495657
The souls series revitalized my love for gaming. It sucks that 3 is their last one but understandable.

I still enjoy gaming. It's just that I feel guilty for playing them since I could be using that time to learn a new skill or some shit.
