/jp/ - Otaku Culture

YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THIS.
Just you wait I'm going to call my over 9000 /b/rothers and ruin your thread.

writing more of this unpublishable piece of

>>10244459
Or maybe not...

I am just going to play some Ar Tonelico 2...

>>10244460
What is it? A story?

>>10244463
Yeah, one more novel in a series. I'm doing my best to finish it till the end of the year, but it's even harder than the previous two to get down.

Probably going to be on the computer. Although tomorrow will be different. I'll be last minute Christmas shopping.

I might go to an end-of-the-world party with my onee-chan

Shooting off guns and then drunk LoL.

>>10244469
What kind of novels? Have the previous two been published or seen any success?

>>10244466
What are you going to buy?

>>10244473
Sounds like the climax of a VN.

>>10244474
Underage, get out.

Fapping.

>>10244475
Light novels, and just published on Baka-Tsuki. It's The Longing of Shiina Ryo.

Got to go out and buy shoes now. Hope you have a good day/night.

>>10244473
The end of the world just happened to be on a Friday shortly before Christmas?

The Mayans planned this. A party 3000 years in the making.

>>10244484
It was the aliens

>>10244476
Some stuff form Bath and Body Works for my Mom, and probably a gift for my nephew.

I'll also probably pick up a book or two from B&N for myself.

The funniest part of this so called "apocalypse" is that everyone totally seems to forget the year 2000 shit from back then.

I'm gonna be going to work..

>>10244499
The fuck are you talking about?

>>10244499
Y2K was dumb and based on idiot logic that rarely applied (durr, the digits will reset!)

Now 2038, there's a real problem involving integer overflow:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

>>10244500
Work is the hardest part of the NEET lifestyle.

Also, I Just realised it's Christmas in four days. What the hell.

>>10244503
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem
They'll keep guessing until they get it right, huh...

>>10244503
So what exactly will happen as a result of this? People will miss their trains or something?

>>10244505
Well you know those conspiracies nuts they won't give up till they're proven right.

>>10244505
The world ending then resetting has been a thing since the 1800s. Some preacher said the world was going to end in 1850 or some such, then kept pushing the date back when it didn't.

He probably wasn't the first person to do this, either, and it's been going on ever since.

>>10244503
It seems the problem involved COBOL storing the last two digits in the date as a string for some stupid reason.

Freedom Unite, and fruitcake.

>>10244506
Planes will fall out of the sky, robots will run wild, and 4chan filenames will reset to -2147483648.jpg.

I'll be watching my usual Friday animes and Fringe. I had planned to buy alcohol, but it's extremely windy out and rainy, so I don't think I really want to go outside. I'm probably going to try and get the last few trophies I need in Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation, too.

>>10244460

it's the novel's fault for being written in a shitty manner

not yours. nope

>>10244529

How can you hold a video game controller with these?

Well I am just about to head to sleep after having done nothing all day except watching shitty SA videos and playing old star wars games.
Life is hard.

>>10244524
I would be concerned about that last one but by then 4chan will inevitably be pay-to-post censored liberal feel good echo chamber normalfag heaven, so I don't really give a shit.

>>10244531
Stop right there bullying scum.

>>10244534

sorry about being smarter than you d00d

i know it's hard being a conservative cave-dweller

I make it a point to spend as much free time as I can on the computer.

Whenever I go out in public, I have a distinct fear of everyone judging me, despite the fact that I come off as very confident.

Am I NEET?

What things could you do on your computer for the next ~5 days with broken earphones?

I already have something in mind but I want more recommendations.

>>10244547
No, you're just an insecure faggot who needs to toughen up, like ME!

>>10244547
Answer the following three questions:
1. Are you in education?
2. Are you in employment?
3. Are you in training?

If you answered "No" to all three questions, then you're a NEET!

>>10244558
Order new earphones.

Can someone buy me a runescape membership?

>>10244547
You're just socially insecure, can't say I don't know that feeling.

>>10244558
Program? Read comics? Watch silent movies?

>>10244562
You could always buy it with GP. It's only 15m for 30 days after all.

>>10244560
You forgot for more than 6 months.
Also don't be a retard, there's absolutely no advantages to being a NEET, probably the best way to enjoying your hobbies is to take a really easy college course, just miss half the classes and half-heartedly do your homework.

>>10244561
My bank account got locked due to a silly mistake and I can only unlock it after Christmas. Now I must thing about something I can do without the need for sound.

>>10244566
What? really? Since when you can buy membership with gold?

>>10244567

But college courses take a lot of cash.

I'm trying to install my first linux distro on my older PC so it can be free, but my disc drive is stuck. I need to get in there so I can burn the disc, but it won't open and every time I press the eject button it thinks I want to play the game left in the drive.

I tried putting a paperclip in the little hole but the drive screams at me and stays shut. This drive does not seem to respect my freedom either.

Nothing, but I've been reflecting though... I'm turning 21 in a month and I still haven't be able to quit /jp/ forever. I think it's time to KILL myself outta /jp/ m8

>>10244569
Suck some cocks.

>>10244570
You buy it off blackmarkets like sythe. Looks like they're 20m+ each now though.

>>10244569
Use speakers.

>>10244567
>You forgot for more than 6 months.
You're getting confused with hikikomori. NEET means pretty much what it says on the tin.

I think the proper definition for "unemployed" is like that, though. You need to have actually sought work within the past six weeks to be unemployed, which is why unemployment statistics usually don't include the young, the old, or the disabled.

>>10244575
I'm 24 and don't feel like I fit in on the whole internet anymore.

>>10244573
Boot it from a USB drive. If you have the ISO for the CD, you don't have to redownload it:
http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/

>>10244581
You're right, don't I look like an ass now.

>>10244586
I guess I'll try it, but I really would like this drive to be open at some point...

>>10244582
I'm 30 and I wish I could start again.

>>10244599
But wouldn't it be sad to forget the nice memories you have?

>>10244595
My drive doesn't open either.

Try to get the disc out and learn to cope with your loss.
Maybe run "eject" in the Linux command line, see what happens.

>>10244605
Actually, I managed to get it open, though I had to turn off the computer first. I poked a paperclip into the little hole, then used another clip as a hook to pull it out. So I put in a blank CD, which will hopefully be the only one I need to put in for a long time...

>>10244599
damn m9. we should kill each other out of /jp/.

Sleeping cutely

>>10244616
I want to sleep with you.

Snuggling with my daki, enjoying the view of the new snow from my window and probably playing some Persona Arena later.

Enjoying some nice music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haNhwOv13JY

>>10244635
Careful though, looks like she's drooling all over the place.
Unless you want to sleep in drool, I wouldn't advise that.

who CUTE here?

I can't be the only one interested in dating cute, shut-in /jp/sies, right?

>>10244644
I cant stop fantasizing about meeting up with a cute /jp/sie and sucking each others cocks

>>10244644
I met up with another /jp/er this summer, he looked pretty normal.
Good luck on your quest, anon.

>>10244665
Ironic gay is worse, yet it's accepted.

>>10244671
Real life is like that too. Men get touchy-feely with each other but it's okay, they're not gay! They're just comfortable with their sexuality and being ironic!

>>10244671
What if it isn't ironic gay

>>10244678

>>10244678
This is a family-friendly forum and we intend to keep it that way. The fags can go elsewhere.

I was bored and went to a paranormal forum

People were talking about a email address that supposedly belongs to a Illuminati agent. He responds to almost every email, but here's the catch: if your question isn't interesting, he'll just send you a bunch of gibberish or some cryptic quote from a old novel or film. I sent him a email saying I wasn't happy with my life and asked him to share a piece of wisdom with me.

he responded with a copypasted article from a medical journal

"The treatment of ADD begins with hope. Most people who discover they have ADD, whether they be children or adults, have suffered a great deal of pain. The emotional experience of ADD is filled with embarrassment, humiliation and self castigation. By the time the diagnosis is made, many people with ADD have lost confidence in themselves. Many have consulted with numerous specialists, only to find no real help. As a result, many have lost hope. The most important step at the beginning of treatment is to instill hope once again. Individuals with ADD may have forgotten what is good about themselves"

the illuminati just called me an ADD kiddie
can you imagine how I feel?

I want to make friends on /jp/ to play games with and skype with but im so scared .pls no bully pls.
I dont mind being alone but maybe an anon could cuddle me once in awhile.

>>10244696
Not really.

>>10244702
>Yuno

Entry level yandere, back to /v/ with you.

>>10244702
<s>Do you have a steam account ?</s>

>>10244702

Every time I ever get to know anyone from anything on any kind of personal level, all of the magic disappears from the relationship.

>>10244706
who is Yuno?

>>10244616
i just took a nap

>>10244705
Well I'm devastated.

>>10244713
Yuno exactly who she is~

>>10244713
what the...

mirai nikki, gasai yuno, psycho stalker and shit

>>10244696
Getting humiliated by a Illuminati agent, I feel bad for you

reading Man with No Talents; it's about paring work and human interaction to the barest sliver

right now I am on ssi but i have been caught up in family and it is exhausting

>>10244722

>>10244702
This never works out because all the guys here are faggots. Every time without fail they would eventually bring up crossdressing and then when you actually discussed something /jp/ related they hadn't a single clue what the fuck you were talking about.

It's some /soc/ level shit let me tell you, son.

>>10244732
>something /jp/ related they hadn't a single clue what the fuck you were talking about.

This is why I gave up on joining in on circlejerks with /jp/sies. They're either low level secondary trash that doesn't know shit, or they're complete normals/r9k crossboarders with depressive disorders.

>>10244747
So the /jp/ experts all turned out to be secretly normals? Crazy.

>>10244771
The "/jp/sies" who usually go to circlejerks are what the anon you were replying to stated, the real experts don't go outside.

I'm out of money until monday and my fridge is pretty much empty. I was looking forward to having 5 eggs and some eggnoodles today, but turns out 2 of these eggs have frozen.

There goes almost 50% of the main part of my meal. Fuck.

>>10244771
Hardly experts if they don't know what the fuck they're talking about. It has nothing to do with them being normal, cockbreath.

>>10244706
But i dont wanna. I like it here :(

>>10244707
No i am a cute boy.
>>10244711
Yes, but i am not very good at any of the games i play, i just try to have fun >_<
>>10244732
There must be some other Otaku that wants a /jp/ friend to share a NEET friendship with.

I found this really attractive cosplayer a week ago and I'm saving all of her pictures and even setting her as my wallpaper on all of my computers.

I've never felt this creepy before but seeing her smile just brings a smile to my face.

How do I get rid of this feeling?

>>10244778
You said they're either secondary trash that doesn't know shit, or normals with depressive disorders, which would imply that there are at least some normals with depressive disorder who do know their shit.

In any case the people you're looking for either don't chat in the first place, or they formed their own circlejerks long ago.

>>10244787

cum inside her

>>10244791
Why are you even assuming I'm the one who said that?

>>10244778
You are the true secondary here, son.

I have 50 kanji left before I finish Heisig, so I will be doing that after I finish my reviews. I'm very glad to be finished and I'm looking forward to moving on to grammar.

>>10244725
I'm starting to think some of his responses are automated. He emailed this link earlier today

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nkx3pd5ULJs

>>10244799
Because you replied to me, and you seemed to be referring to the "normals/r9k crossboarders with depressive disorders" that you had encountered. I didn't realize you were someone else who was just pronouncing judgment on complete strangers.

I feel kinda sick, so I'll probably just sleep most of the day. Otherwise I might finally start a VN I've been putting off. I have nothing really thought out beyond that...
>>10244779
You gotta try to make NEET friends in small groups, it gives everyone a chance to remain silent for a while. So much less pressure!

>>10244779

>There must be some other Otaku that wants a /jp/ friend to share a NEET friendship with.

You don't care about any of that. Look at this sentence. You want an "Otaku"? No, you want a boyfriend. "/jp/ friend"? /jp/sies don't want friends. "NEET friendship"? No, you just want a friendship.

You are literally attaching /jp/-related buzzwords to a /soc/ post in order to trick us into thinking you're on-topic. The depths normals will sink to continue to amaze me.

>>10244747
This would be easier if you told exactly what kind of person you want to chat with. Use bullet points and list the attributes you're looking for.

>>10244814
I'm a different poster but you're making me sad, anon.

>>10244806
Oh, right, I'm the secondary for wanting to discuss visual novels or /jp/ related video games. I forgot this board is about sucking dicks, crossdressing and hooking up. my bad.

>>10244747
I'll never be good enough to be friends with anyone on /jp/ ;_;

>>10244791
Of course there are exceptions. I'm not implying that normals or people that are depressed can't inhabit any of the traits I'm looking for, it's just that the majority of them that are in either of those categories usually are crap at the medium.

Sorry for being unclear.

>>10244779
<s>What's your steam name ?</s>

>>10244787
Get to know her, form a close bond with her, realize that you're both in love with one another, then, just when happy times are at their peak, have a friend seduce her and make her fall for him.

You'll be so upset that you'll never smile again.

I swear every neet thread there are some false floor shitters that goes around complaining about soc garbage

>>10244841
just relax!

>>10244814
Ive been NEET for two years, fuck you. Your just assuming a ton of bullshit. I dont want a boyfriend. And im not interested in normal friendships. /jp/sies can want some companionship, you cant just say "ALL /jp/sies WANT THIS AND NOTHING ELSE" You dont know? I have no interest in norms, or people like you who think their /jp/ police.

>>10244811
Thank you anon I will do my best.

>>10244844
Go ahead shoot me motherfucker. squeeze dat shit.

>>10244841
And also false neets like you thinking ironic hookup/gay/crossdressing is funny.

Die.

>>10244823
*hugs* It's okay, I'll protect you.

>>10244854
No irony yo, I want to cuddle with another /jp/er and suck his cock.

Why do Sentai masks have lips?

>>10244839
Calcifer218

>>10244854
It's /jp/ heritage.

>>10244841
Do you mean that as in falseshitters who try to hard to be board police and derail threads complaining about obvious trolls or falseshitters who complain that their girlfriend doesn't like the same kind of music as them?

guide to making friends with NEETSL

1) please chill out and relax and be courteous.
2) have the same interest where you know you can spend many hours discussing
3) never say words like "its been a while" or "we havent spoken in a long time". its insulting and neets have a broken sense of time
4) never ask details about a neets life
5) answer quickly, nothing makes a neet more annoyed than someone whos attention they don't have 100%
6) never be a conversation stopper or use excessive ellipses in your sentences "yeah..."
7) if you and the neet is in disagreement please play it off as a joke and forget about it, don't hold grudges or extend a nasty argument
8) act like you are familiar with your new neet friend, say hello and bye
9) please speak up if a neet is doing something to bother you, chances are he really isn't being a jerk and you are misunderstanding
10) if you do run into a jerk he isn't really a neet or from /jp/ he's just some epic trollerface from a shitboard and wants to make his "epic lelz" at your expense

>>10244853
You are not worth the bullets. Punk.

Falseshitters? Get the fuck outta here with your lame ass buzzwords you just made up in your aol chatroom

>>10244863
The first. The latter is what makes jp a fun place.

>>10244865
What a shitty guide. You should be ashamed of yourself.

>>10244872
I thought it was okay..

>>10244872
NO BULLYING.

>>10244861
<s>..c-can I add you, too? I don't have the nerve to message right now, though..</s>

>>10244877
I'll bully your ass with my dick, faggot.

>>10244865
That was actually quite helpful, thanks. I feel guilty about not respodong so quickly now.

What people need to understand is that each /jp/sie has his/her own quirks and differences that make them unique. Each one has different standards and personality types, making it difficult to make a list on how to become friends with them.

>>10244881

Don't bully please.

>>10244882
I get nervous when people take a while to respond, but I think it is also good for me and others to realize that not everyone is used to such focused communication. If you can convey this without causing a misunderstanding, I think it is preferable. Friendship should be about helping each other, right..?

/jp/ is for my friends.

>>10244879
Of course ^-^ I'm shy too but lets be buddies! just don't judge my non-existing gaming skills >_<

>>10244881
You don't belong here.

>>10244787
I wish I know man.

>>10244779
Post your skype or msn, mate.

>>10244911
The irony in this post is unreal. Good job.

TFW a /jp/ thread turned to shit before you even posted in it.

Also, 2012.

>>10244861
I'm dumb and can't find it for some reason, just give me your profile url if that's not too much to ask.

>>10244865
>5) answer quickly, nothing makes a neet more annoyed than someone whos attention they don't have 100%
>6) never be a conversation stopper or use excessive ellipses in your sentences "yeah..."
I wish I could do both of those but it takes me for ever to think clearly and chances are even if you're talking directly to me i'll lose interest and my mind will just wander off.

>>10244928
Take it to your e-mail addresses, homolords.

I have one cherry jolly rancher and four grape. Has anyone else had a similar NEET crisis?

>>10244888
This, the fags assuming that all "tru/jp/sies" should be the carbon copy of eachother are deluded beyond saving.

>>10244575
Why not just kill /jp/ outta you, m-eight?

Gonna be trying to watch Cross Game, eating roast chicken, and shitposting on 4chan. A day well spent.

>>10244984
not if the /jp/ kills you first.

Is this a contact thread

Did you guys not notice that I posted in this thread or something?

Where are my replies?

>>10244997
hello!

Omegle with /jp/sies was an absolute disaster albeit hilarious. Making contact here not a good idea.

>>10244984
You're right m9... you're absolutely right.

>>10244995
By killing both of you, I will free your souls outta /jp/ and once I'm done freeing all of you there will be no more jp and thus killing jp outta me...

I'm leaving for Japan in less than a month. I want to say I'm excited to go, but I'm really not. I'm going there to work and to see family which I have only ever spoken on the phone with. I'm nervous and don't want to leave my (online) friends behind. I only speak the language half-fluently and feel like my mastery of the language won't pull me through.

When I get back to the US, I'll be 21. I'm afraid I'll have accomplished nothing in that time. I don't want to go back without having made a friend or earned a small amount of money.

>>10245048
You're not alone in feeling alone. I'm beginning to think I'm not meant to even have just a basic friendship as a NEET.

>>10245062
;_;

>>10245091
Well, aren't you fucking lucky...

>>10245097
Why would you be mad about someone having to work? It's not like he's going to Japan for holiday.

>>10245097
I'm really not. I'm being forced to by my parents who won't let me be NEET.

I just want to stay home and play GS games all day.

>>10245096
>>10245048
I dunno if you both are just joking around, but..
>I'm beginning to think I'm not meant to even have just a basic friendship as a NEET.
this in particular hit me.
email me if you (or whoever) feels like it, I want to possibly attempt some sorta small group..talk..thing.
;_; sorry if I am bothering anyone else.

>>10245100
Fug you, I'd take a nice job in a foreign country anyday.

how the hell can people afford to be neets anyway

>>10245108
But it's not like I already have been hired. My parents are shipping me off hoping I can teach English. My father still thinks it's the 80s where they hired everyone English-speaker to teach, but I don't know if I can get a job doing that or not. I don't know what else I could do. My grasp on Japanese isn't terrific and if I can't speak Japanese, what other job could I find?

>>10245111
Living off their parents, and/or autismbux. Did you not look up the history behind this term?

>>10245103
Of course I'm not joking around. I've been trying my hardest to connect with even just one damn person for over two years now. I've even went out of my way to find people with the exact same niche interests and tastes as me, and even started distributing content (such as books I imported from Japan and scanned) to the community. But niceness alone doesn't seem to be of any value to anyone these days. I'm probably just a horribly boring person and have no actual value as a friend to anybody.

>>10245103
I emailed you

>>10245117
You sound pretty cute. As long as you are not fat, I will put my dick in your butt. We can connect that way.

>>10245117
if you haven't, please send me an email.
I don't want anything solid from you, I just want to talk. Please? I'm pretty boring myself, but maybe we can work something out..?

>>10245115
So its basically lazy fucks, bad parents, and fake disease sufferers? hm. Neet-o.

>>10245138
Oh I've had bad peanuts before. I felt sick for a while and threw up. After that I was fine, though.

>>10245131
That's not even slightly funny as one person I knew even tried to take advantage of me and actually sought after a gay relationship with me only because he got rejected by someone else. I was merely a temporary replacement for his loss.

>>10245138
please dont say we are lazy

Posting here because I want the neet lifestyle but want to live as an independent neet.

Any of you manage this?

>>10245140
Oh yeah? Were you interested in that gay relationship?

>>10245136
The problem is, that I DO want something solid from somebody. Just a basic friendship where someone would actually be interested enough to message me at least once a day. But I'm always the one initiating any sort of communication with my "friends", and usually all I get out of them is a single pity reply. I could stop speaking to everyone I know and nobody would notice or care. Being NEET is suffering.

>>10245159
my new years resolution is to start learning japanese. yeah i'm a guy too

what's yours?

Is this homoautistic /soc/? Sure feels like it.

>>10245140
If that was me I'm really, really, really sorry.

I'll never forgive myself...

I'd like to say that I'm artistic, but I'm still pretty bad at drawing. I like to draw a lot though, so I'll only get better at it, I hope.

>>10245162
You need to find somebody with a similar interest, but also at a similar level of interest. Some people just don't have good chemistry.

>>10245171
You think this is hilarious don't you?

>>10245158
I've been doing it all year. But I'm British; the government here caters to NEETs.

>>10245173
That's impossible then. I guess I really am meant to be alone.

>>10245177
no. please im sorry. i just, i did that with someone before. i don't know if it was you, and it probably wasn't you. we didn't really break up though, just sort of stopped talking but he hated me at the end I think... and we considered ourselves in a relationship sort of. so maybe it wasn't you. but if it was I'm sorry...

victory.meal, check your email.

>>10245169
Welcome to modern day /jp/, where these kind of threads are allowed. Enjoy your stay.

>>10245178
Living off the government is not an option for me, I'm 32 and have a job in London.

My aim is to buy 2 houses, 1 to provide rental income and the other for me to live in with optical internet

>>10245197
Where are you going to get the £1 million required to do that in London

>>10245162
gaaah, by solid I meant things such as 'contributions', I don't want you to do things FOR me, I want you to do things WITH me.
..is that too forward?

invitations to email me and join the current set of people open, and if I didn't reply, I got overwhelmed with replying to others so... please tell me to hurry up!

>>10245254
disgusting.

the only way I would be friends with someone is if they promised to be friends with me, and only me.

>>10245267
th-that's okay... I know I'm not an amazing friend, so I would probably fail in that promise. If I make a group, perhaps I can at least facilitate other people?

>>10245254
Maybe tomorrow or something. I'm sure you're getting flooded with emails anyway, and I'm just feeling incredibly depressed today. I don't want to be just another guy out of the many that sends you a message anyway.

Universal Jobmatch has far less results than the old Directgov site, and they're all highly-specialised like nursing and HGV drivers.

I think Her Majesty's Government WANTS me to remain a NEET, which is fine by me.

>>10245196
I used to think that this was a temporary state of things until moot added new janitors, but now... I'm... not so sure...

>>10245275
>th-that's
Also please don't stutter. It just makes your post sound insincere. Like that Alice RPer.

>>10245307
I've just learned to accept them at this point so I might as well participate in them. At least they are contained to one thread and usually saged.

>>10245311
My apologies, I generally do it to lighten the mood and make people think I am joking around, but I am rather sincere in that belief. Normals don't like that sincerity though, so I look for ways to tone it down.
>>10245303
I want you to email NOW! Or you'll just make an excuse not to..

Spending my night listening to the NES Ninja Gaiden soundtrack.

>>10245169
...ah, and I'm sorry for ruining this thread. I'll contain it to just this one, I swear.

>>10245340
That reminds me of when I'd listen to the Japanese Castlevania 3 soundtrack. I should do that again. The audio quality is superb for its time.

1. Someone who is a NEET, who spends the majority of their time on the computer, free to talk at any time.

2. Must start conversations with me once in a while (very important).

3. No roleplaying, crossdressing, and other faggotry. (S-stuttering, Japanese honorifics, etc) Also no smileys.

4. Open to discussion about a variety of topics at a shallow level.

I could go on forever with this, speaking to people is hard for me.

I'm starting to forget how to be creative.

Help me /jp/. I'm losing all interest. All I do is listen to music and watch anime.

I need to be saved, /jp/, save me. SAVE ME!!! PLEASE!!

>>10245393
If you are doing the things you enjoy, then you're already saved.

Congratulations.

>>10245393
Just rip things off. Unless you're required to be creative for a living, it's fine. I write and draw solely for myself, and all the characters and settings are obviously stolen. At first I was like, "Heh, I obviously just drew Parsee...what the fuck am I doing? This is so stupid."
Now I don't give a shit any more. Nobody's judging me but myself.

>>10245398
>>10245401
There's this feeling, I can't put my finger on it but it's telling me that I have more potential but I can't find the fucking key to this safe.

And shit man, I hate ripping things off unless I'm making a profit, which rarely ever happens seeing as I'm literally turning into a mindless sack of meat.
SHIT, sure feels edgy.

>>10245417
you now have your first blog entry.

enjoy.

>>10245417
write a story
seriously

>>10244458

Just strokin mah dick as I type this.

>>10245434
Lewd.

<s> Captcha: submarine ughtiny </s>

>>10245434
what a coincidence. I was just playing with my dick as well.

>>10245424
My writing has really gone down the drain. It's painful. I enjoy being a NEET and all but I hate not being able to do the things I want to be able to do.

>>10245441
>>10245434

>>10245449
Find people who care about what you like. If you are having difficulty finding intrinsic value in your hobbies, maybe you can find extrinsic value in them by surrounding yourself with people that actually care.

>>10245449
At least try writing something if you want to be able to be good at it.
I'm currently in the process of writing a story and I'm at chapter 13.
I can really notice the difference in my writing from 1-13.
They're really short chapters too.

>>10245441
*Penis high five*

You find it hard being creative in what way exactly?

You find it hard to find motivation to actually start working on making something, or you just can't come up with ideas to make something that's your own?

I want to make music for videogames.
I have all these tunes in my head that are just waiting to be made real, yet I have no way of doing that.

I have a small amount of musical experience (grade 5 classical piano. No piano at home anymore though and no money to buy anything). I think I just need a decent piece of software which uses good instrument samples and get this all written down. I hope to build an online portfolio and get it seen by people who might take me on.

If I want to live as a NEET when I'm older (I'm 22 now and pretty much unemployable due to never having a job before. Nobody takes on people like that, trust me I've tried.) I'll need a foundation. This is my only chance.

>>10245474
I hear FL Studio is good.

>>10245470
Up High. Down Low.

>>10245471
I have a hard time finding motivation and I can't come up with any decent ideas.

My thoughts are pretty cloudy and I can't really learn or create anything.

>>10245474
I'd suggest downloading a copy of Famitracker, it can emulate a wide variety of chipsets.

Isn't it just the greatest when he calls you cute?

>>10245483
Please don't remind me, I get this woozy feeling.

The NEET threads seem to fill up thrice as fast during the Christmas season.

>>10245500
Probably because we know we're going to be spending Christmas alone like every other day.

I had a nice dream about cuddling with my cousin. We were in my bed, I was sitting down against a pile of pillows and she was laying back onto me. I'll probably be masturbating shortly.

>>10245477
Fruityloops eh? I'll try it out though I only ever heard about FL when people are joking about making music.
With that said, I haven't seen or heard anything of FL in many years, so it's probably grown past my current expectations of the software.

>>10245479
I want to start out just writing piano scores, so a tracker might not be my first stop for the pieces I have in mind currently.

That doesn't mean I won't do any NES-like mixes, as getting to grips with the tracker might be fun. Heck, I might even make something worthwhile in it.

>>10245479
I find the best way of motivating myself is to be shamed by others.

Ideally in real life, back before I dropped out people who didn't have the talent I had but worked ten times as hard as I did were a great motivation for me to avoid complete stagnation.

Now I just watch some anime or read a manga(and there's even been one or two VN)related to my particular passion and the hard-working fictional characters therein motivate me to work harder myself.

Luckily, my particular hobby is drawing and painting, so I have a lot to choose from.

I can't really recommend anything for coming up with original ideas, I have lots and lots and lots of things I want to do, I mostly lack the skills to do them, so I'm working on that.

Anyone else have hard time enjoying tv shows / anime because they get extremely depressed after the show finishes? I just laid in bed for 5 days after finishing The Wire and Madoka and I dont really want to start any more shows because I end up feeling depressed when they finish.

>>10245541
Not depressed, but I feel frustrated before I find a new one to watch. I am very picky.

>>10245541
You sound familiar. At least you're not depressed enough to where you can't even enjoy watching anime anymore.

>>10245541
watch experimental animated shorts. They have really great animation that really makes you appreciate the medium rather than what it brings to you. Even if it's sad, there isn't much of an emotional impact because it's so short.

>>10245541
Not really. Once you've seen enough stuff you build big enough base of favorites that you can just enjoy re-watching stuff you've seen previously in an endless loop.

(there are, however, precisely two series I refuse to finish because I don't want to deal with them ending, but those are extreme special cases)

>>10245541
DO NOT WATCH SIX FEET UNDER. As a NEET that show put me into a week long depression. Made me feel like I was wasting my life

>>10245424
Not the same guy, but I wish I could write. I've tried to do it a couple times, I always end up getting carried away and writing trashy stuff about werewolves, vampires, demons, etc. I have no imagination

I am recovering from hang over

>>10245566
They don't even have to be experimental nonsense, just animated shorts that aren't botched episodes or something. Studio 4C, NFB, some Disney and other less affiliated studios.

>>10245572
Because you wanted to be an undertaker?

I wish that someone would bully me. Maybe I wouldn't feel so alone.

>>10245573
>I always end up getting carried away and writing trashy stuff about werewolves, vampires, demons, etc.

Considering how things like this sell, you ought to just stick at it.

>>10245573
I never knew darren shan browsed /jp/.

>>10245572
Which ones? Please tell, try not to relive them. I'm really curious.

>>10245541
Omar-san.......

>>10245581
Go to /a/ and make a recommendation thread.

>>10245580
Not at all. If anything it has motivated me to go to back uni for nursing.

>>10245588
I didn't feel overcome with emotion until the last few episodes but that is because of how invested I was in the characters. Start from season one its a great show overall

But it's embarrassing. And if I get rid of the paranormal stuff it just comes off as edgy and pretentious. I just want to write a normal adventure novel

>>10245591
You will never be a lovable gay stick up artist in the hood.

>>10245474
Oh what a coincidence.

I need a composer for a game I am making. I have a budget of $200, are you interested?

I could teach you how to make sounds and what software is used. I have no composing skills so I suck.

Email on email field

What's a cheap tablet I can buy with my autismbux?
I always wanted to draw but this mouse isn't cutting it.

>>10245622
I think you should practice with pencils and crayons first. I do that when I get bored

>>10245506
No, it's because all the people that work/study are on winter break.

>>10245616
You need to read more so you can get rid of the immature belief that paranormal stuff is something to be ashamed of.

>>10245541
I was extremely lethargic for a week after finishing up every single episode of Miami VIce. Holy shit that show is amazing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UmOY6ek_Y4

>>10245643
That show is far from amazing

>>10245648
Its by far and away the best TV show of the 80s.

>>10245622
You're using your lack of equipment as an excuse to put off starting.

You can get an HB pencil, some paper, and start drawing.

Ideally get some bigger format like at least A3, doesn't have to be high quality or anything, just the stuff they sell to schoolkids, but if you can't even afford that, printer paper will suffice.

Getting a tablet first is a recipe for learning bad practices and and endless fuckarounditis.

>>10245620
As much as I'd love to take up that offer, I want to have some examples of what I do first.
As I said before I want to build up some sort of portfolio showing what I can do.

I apologise if your offer is genuine and you do need someone for music, but I'm not your guy <s> yet </s>.
I'll keep the address down in case I want to contact you again in the future, though.

>>10245668
It is fine, as I said I know how to make sounds but I suck at composing.

And I have waaaay too much work with programming and art assets. I don't mind if you suck at it, you could practice with me.

>>10245643

I was drinking cocktails called ``Miami Vice'' last Friday. It was some odd semi-frozen take on a strawberry daiquiri and tasted sublime. I really felt like I was in Miami with Crockett and Tubbs

>>10245636
Anything you'd recommend? I haven't read anything in a long time but I love watching cheapass slasher flicks from the 80s.

>>10245694
Miami Vice really is amazing. I was born in 1989 but it makes me feel nostalgic about the 80s.

>>10245703
Nice to see some fellows 80s kids around here

>>10245643
Miami Vice is the ONLY TV / anime show I own the full box set of so yea, its pretty good. Had a huge effect on me and every time I think about it I wish I could experience it again for the first time. I even like the weaker later seasons.

>>10245643
are you a miami vice otaku too?

i just saw your thread on TV

go buy an Oberheim dude!

>>10245706

anyone born after 1987 doesn't know SHIT about otaku culture

>>10245732
>Oberheim
I love the Miami Vice music so much. Do you know any other artists than Dan Hammer that make music like it?

TV shows any /jp/sie should watch:
Carnivale, The Wire, Treme, Mad Men, True Blood, Deadwood, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Sherlock, Luther, Six Feet Under, Breaking Bad, Sopranos, Game Of Thrones, Homeland, Arrested Development, Gossip Girl, The Vampire Diaries

They should keep you busy for a long time

>>10245739

>>10245742
aren't you forgetting one in particular that you've been spamming every fuckin day, /tv/-kun?

>>10245736
1987 was a shit year

>>10245750
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4ueaD22hg8

>>10245742
>Gossip Girl
>The Vampire Diaries

No Spartacus, Dexter, House, Homeland.

Are you a troll?

I wish I could find a cute NEET boy/girl to come live with me
I'm so lonely

>>10245753
what would that be?

>>10245756

no more tears /b/ro... just be glad that at least one of us was born before the influx of shit neo-scum (any time after december 31st 1987)

>>10245767
oops, i forgot it's not a tv show. nevermind for the love of god

>>10245766
Where do you live?

>>10245742
what about twin peaks

>>10245784
Ontario

>>10245789
His list didn't have the A-Team, Miami Vice, The OZ or The Wire. Obviously born 1996 or some shit. Why are you listening to him?

>>10245795
his list had fucking Vampire Diaries on it for gods sake.

>>10245793
Not him, but I live there too. Are you that person that bailed when we agreed to meet up and commit suicide together?

>>10245795

He did mention The Wire, but that's a fair point on the lack of A-Team.

>>10245798
No I don't want to kill myself.

>>10245519
If you just want to write scores and compose 'traditionally', try Sibelius if you haven't already. It's good and pretty intuitive if you're not a philistine and you know how to read and write music.

>>10245620
>>10245675
What kind of music are you talking about here? What kind of game is it?

>>10245795
He also didn't have any non-American shows. That really detracts from his authority on what is good.

>>10245799
Alright my bad on the wire but hes still some retarded teenager. There are far more essential TV Shows than fucking Vampire Diaries ROFL

>>10245808

Name one show from that is
-worth watching
-not made in the USA
-not some shitty brit comedy

>>10245769
Homeland is listed. Dexter and House have more bad seasons than good ones. Spartacus is entertaining but not really a quality show especially since the lead actor passed away

>>10245789
I forgot to include that but Twin Peaks is a good show

>>10244513
http://pastebin.com/u2npzLAV

>>10245742
Can't believe Gossip Girl is over. At least I still have TVD as a guilty pleasure.

>>10245795
They had TV before the '80s as well

How's your relationship with your mother?
I'm genuinely curious.

>>10245742
Gossip Girl, Breaking Bad and The Vampire Diaries.

No MASH, Miami Vice, The OZ or Hill Street Blues. Could you be any more of a 10 year old?

>>10245821
They're good shows. /jp/sies can't enjoy them due to the lack of edginess

>>10245832
Only pre-80s show worth mentioning is Hill Street Blues as far as I know.

>>10245838
>awful sitcoms and a christian prison show
Yeah no

>>10245843
Nevermind Hill Street Blues was 80s. Even stuff like Happy Days was total garbage by todays standards

>>10245843
The Twilight Zone?
The Honeymooners?
All In The Family?
Saturday Night Live?
Johnny Carson?

>>10245834
Great. She's almost too accepting of my lifestyle if anything.

>>10245855
She wants to help you dress like a girl

>>10245846
You like Vampire Diaries and Gossip Girl. Get the fuck out. could be any more of a teenager?

>>10245882
I'm older than you nitwit!

I hate when people call me by my name. I went to pick up a pizza just now and I was called by my name. The girl even opened the box and exclaimed "Wow, it looks good," before closing the lid and handing it to me. I wish people would just call me something generic and neutral.

>The girl even opened the box and exclaimed "Wow, it looks good,"
For some reason, I find that a little bit hard to believe. I have never had a girl deliver a pizza to me, and I've ordered many throughout my life. I also never had the delivery person comment on the pizza, let alone open it.

>>10245947
I went there and picked it up. I said that in my post.

>>10245742
This is bad.

>>10245807
It is hard to explain (the game itself).

I have to make from sound effects to ambient music. Probably I will steal most of it for the first beta.

>>10245937
uh, you can give them whatever name you want

>>10245937
When you order your pizza next time, give them a generic and neutral name then. They truly don't care.

>>10245937
HA! You're way more autistic than me! I only get mildly annoyed by that!

>>10246019
It's not pizza places, everywhere. Family calling me by my name is the same, I don't like it.

>>10245937
You must have a really shitty name.

>>10246030
What's your name, dude? You can tell us, you're among friends here.

>>10246058
I'm not falling for that one.

>>10246058
Susan

>>10246067
yeah it's shit

You realise you can give a fake name to pizza places? It's just so you can be recognised when you pick it up

>>10246067
That's a girl's name.

>>10246067
What a terrible name. Reminds me of those bitter 70 year old women.

>>10246076
>>10246080
>>10246083
Guys, my name's not Susan.

>>10246101
If it's not Susan then what is it, Susan?

>>10246101
Is it Medicine?

Only television worth watching is PBS.

>>10246101
Well what is it?

>>10247649
Their fundraisers are Oscar-worthy. Love seeing a condescending old man tell me I can't delay and should just give him my goddamn money.

>>10245742
I began watching Luther from your list. That's some 11/10 level NTR shit. Please tell the bitch dies horribly.

>>10245742
I've never seen any of those show, and I've heard that about half of those shows you listed are shit.

>>10247119
