Life is already a waste of time.

>>379492002
that's just ... wow

All entertainment is a waste of your time unless you are directly making money from it.

>>379491854
If cared about wasting your time you wouldn't be on /v/.

I'd say only games like multiplayer ones or free to play shit, are genuine wastes of time. But still, why are you playing games if you don't have job, gf, or own place. Get on it faggot.

>>379491854
They are.

It's just... I'm 24 and I've never done anything else in my life.. I try to stop but it's impossible

Lenses

Everything is

>>379491854
Only when you deny yourself very specific and actual opportunities just to play games. Otherwise, don't bother too much. There are worse ways. A mediocre book, a sunday at the stadium... Relax and go a bit with the flow.

RPGs are the most time wasting genre in existence, the rest are ok.

>>379491854
I found out time run faster when i play vidya.
So, i'm just playing vidya to pass my time because there's nothing interesting going on in my life, and i'm basically just waiting for my death to come.
hopefully it will be sooner.

People who post on 4chan don't care about such things.

is posting on 4chan a waste of time? people on here always say it's okay to waste your time on normalfag shit like facebook and twitter because it's social, so I wonder if the same logic applies to 4chan even though we're anonymous

>>379492471
It has to do with addiction and recognizing the anonymous collective as someone we want to approve us.

if you want to go by the basest of thoughts, doing literally anything that's not having kids and acquiring wealth is a complete waste of your time.

>New day
>Open catalog for your favorite boards
>Open interesting threads and go through
>Close browser
>Carry on
If you're still here constantly refreshing the catalog day, then you've become addicted to instant gratification and you need to stop for a while.

>>379492674
This. Wanting your seed to prevail and be carried on. Yet nature also gave you the means to enjoy games and feel at peace with the flow of things. Forgive yourself and relax.

>addicted to instant gratification
this is a serious fucking issue for me and I don't know how to fix it.

Close tab, do anything but going on the internet for a while, and when you're on here, just do it for 10 mins tops.

>>379493026
Try jogging or running, without exaggerating. A moderate physical effort does wonders. Take a shower. Self-indulge a bit less. Then, when you do it, no sense of guilt.

Not a waste at all

>>379493185
This. Balance your life out so that 4chan/vidya/fapping is something that you can do for enjoyment rather than necessity out of boredom or compulsion

>>379493336
>videogames
If they're actually your hobby, why don't you know that video games is actually not a compound word?

You're implying that time inherently has value which is ridiculous. However, games are almost never the choice if you want to get as much enjoyment out of life as possible. Then again you have to remember that people who spend all their time playing games rarely do so because they truly want to. Our brains are wired a certain way and you simply cannot escape that fact, looking into an attractive girls eyes and getting a positive response from her lights your brain up in ways that even the most fantastic game cannot come close to, there are no words to properly describe the difference.

>>379491854
Only if you're a speedrunner.

Not living with her at my side is a waste of my lifetime.

You yourself can only experience present, you from your past is not the same as you in present which is different from you in the future. For all we may know future and past might not exist and present is product of complex simulation. You may not change or influence in anyway the past and present you will never experience the future so why not doing something fun right now?

Too brainlet to enjoy books, too ugly manlet to bother with lifting. Movies are boring
What else is there for me to do?

>>379494907
Suicide, but I'm sure that's obvious by now.

What a worthless statement.

>>379491854

Literally everything you do in life is just a way to pass the time until you die. So, waste your time in the way(s) that make you happy. That's all there is to it.

>making money isn't a waste of time

ohohohoho boy. Try having a job that you only work 4 days a week versus 6 days a week. I used to do 6 days and make 52k, now I only do 4 days and make 38k. Making more money is a waste of time.
