/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I'm only 25 so not yet, I'm guessing I probably will in a few years. I have arthritis in a few places from past injuries though, that kinda sucks.

Why?
It's not like /jp/ is experiencing wonders of youth anyway.

Baka! Eye will live forever, in the hearts of everynyan

I don't think that overused image is appropriate, I'm just not afraid of aging.

Not so much scared of aging as I am scared of dying.

I always talk myself out of doing anything worthwhile on the off-chance I have cancer and it would be a waste of my final days

I just want to grow up!

No, not really.
Gonna kill myself in my mid 30s anyway, if not sooner.

I think the main concern is how you percieve life. At this young age alot of what we say is going to be false, as you get older things change, you adapt, no sillyness like, "im never going to have kids or a girlfriend!" or "Im going to kill myself when im 40". You change.

>>9970224
It's time to go be a normal somewhere else.

>>9970224
Mao in the bush.

I'm not afraid of getting old I just don't need all the responsibility that comes with age.

>>9970227
Its a time bomb, give into the innevitable, you wont be there in the future, a new developed you will be there

Not really, I've started to grow some grey hairs and I take pride in them. My father always dyed his hair, but I will never do such a vain thing.

I look forward to the perspective on life I'll have when my grandparents and parents die, and no one in my family is above me. I want to see with free eyes, and see what influence I can have over others as I become older and more experienced with life.

>>9970196
No, I'm scared of never finishing all the stuff I have backlogged, things I wanted to experience but ultimately dying or losing them before I ever got around to it. I wish I could have like a 0 year where nothing happened so I could catch up on everything.

I am scared of women aging, however. Even if I got over everything else and got a wife, in just a matter of years, she would turn into a gross old hag who wanted to sleep in my bed. Even if the was some ridiculous age like 13, she'd end up being 43 before I even become old enough to retire. I don't know why they age so horribly compared to men.

I'd like to live a long time, like how trees live for thousands of years, but I fear having to watch all my stuff break down and fade away. Even if they last for decades, even DVDs will become unreadable after 40 years, your plastic things will warp and deform and decolor, your paper things will become brittle and fragile, and if you live for a long time and you'll never be able to get them back.

So scared I'm trying to stop it.

Good to know I'm not the only one. I guess that's what hookers are for.

>>9970245
I disagree, I read a book that was created in 1921 the other day and it is still readable and perfect, as for the aging women thing, its your wife so you find her pretty regardless

>>9970240
I will always be me. Nobody is allowed to replace me. I will not accept such paltry endeavors to bear my name.

Why would I be scared of aging? Aging is the reminder that this awful life will end, even if I'm not courageous enough to end it myself. It's a very relieving thought.

>>9970249
I meant they would degrade over the centuries if I lived for thousands of years.

>its your wife so you find her pretty regardless
lolno

>>9970254
>lolno

"hell have no fury like a woman scorned"
RIP Anon, they rip out your soul

>>9970255
That does not make them not become ugly as sin.

>>9970254
It's not hard to believe that if you're really really close to someone than a gradual change in their appearance over time will never change how you feel about them. I guess if you married for shallow reasons and don't really enjoy the person you marry you could feel grossed out by her aging. You need love in your heart.

I don't like the passage of time.

Eventually, things I don't want to do will be forced upon me.

It's somewhat tempting to die now, so at least I have the future at a constant.

If I won the lottery, I would create equilibrium; ensure that every day of my life is going to have the same conditions, so that I can do exactly what I want, every day, instead of having to build around things.

>>9970249
> its your wife so you find her pretty regardless
I often found myself thinking that my 18 years old girlfriend was ugly, even though I didn't think so in the beginning.

She'll just leave you for a rich guy.

>>9970258
You know how people say first impressions are important? I find I very rarely, if ever, come to like someone I do not like the look of. When I see a character or a person, I can tell how much I like them and if I should care enough to try. I found I have very rarely, if ever, been wrong, which makes me wonder if they become someone I cannot stand the sight of they will not also become someone I cannot stand the thought of. The good thing is that I would not have to push away a wife, someone I had known for many years. I could take solace in her suffering, in making her suffer, like nobody else can. I have often reflected if I ever had a wife, I would try and prepare as we move along our life, so that when I grow bored of her I could convince her to kill herself.

>>9970264
You WILL be forced to changed at some point in your life. Take comfort in knowing you have no choice.

>>9970264
With how governments and rich people treat the economy they WANT you to do that. They shouldnt get to live life great at the expence of us commiting sudoku, its all mind games

>>9970272

I would rather die, than give in to that.

>>9970271
That's edgy bro, but take a second to look at all the marriages in the 1st world and you'll see that girls won't hesitate to divorce your ass if you try that shit and you'll be lucky if they don't press charges against you.

>>9970271
I doubt you have the mental capacity to even do that, you undermine others so much Freud would date your ego

>>9970280
No, that is honest.

>>9970271
You're insane.

>>9970286
Is it really wrong to be happy?

>>9970286
Its just a random guy acting edgy on here, or its a really really naive guy who doesnt understand how emotions and relationships work

>>9970258
Loving someone does not mean you find them pretty. If your wife gets her arms and legs cut off and her face melted by acid, you'll still love her, but that doesn't mean you'll love having to carry her to the toilet and wipe her ass, cleanup her periods, and kiss her melted face so she doesn't think you hate her.

>I guess if you married for shallow reasons
On an aside, there's no point to marry for any reason than you find them attractive or because it provides some mutual benefit. Being attractive generally means being healthy and your kids will probably be healthy and attractive. Benefiting mutually means you'll be able to depend on each other rather than one carrying the other, or that at the least, you're better off together than apart. Love isn't really a good enough reason; you don't need marriage to affirm love.

>>9970289
I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm just saying that you're insane.

>>9970295
>If your wife gets her arms and legs cut off and her face melted by acid
you kidding me? This would be great. She'd be so scared of losing you that she'd be a lot nicer, and up for anything.

>>9970302
>and up for anything
Like what?

>>9970302
Really? Are you really that desperate? How depressing

>>9970312
No, but guess why there's a correlation between limb loss and her not divorcing and taking all your stuff

You can't be the fat bald old rapist if you don't age.

>>9970295
I can think of plenty of fun things to do to lighten my crippled wife's mood as well as my own then.

We could sit around masking weird masks for her face and make whacky prosthetic so she can have an axes and swords for hands and rifles for her legs.

I have forced myself to think that I will naturally live 200-300 years. Maybe I will age slower while thinking like this?

I am a god and the son of myself.

>>9970196
yea.
>tfw you've turned your life into shit

I don't care about aging in the sense of numbers I just really don't want to get saggy and ugly but i'm sure I will just get fillers or something then so it's not a really big deal.

>>9970338
lol epic feel br/a/h

Remember, suicide is always a viable option

>>9970366
Suicide will make you age really really horribly.

>>9970370
What do you mean?

I'm 25 and I want to stop aging so badly.

I want to stay alive and healthy and watch the next few centuries of the world. Medical science just advances much too slow since the 1980's.
They need to hurry up and save me.

>>9970373
Skeletons are ugly

>>9970406
do skeltons real?

/v/ le meme

The only thing about it that concerns me is that I probably won't be able to find a wife in time to enjoy the younger years doing lewd stuff. I guess when we're both 40+ it just wouldn't be the same.

I've had a bit of a shake up lately with people that I knew back in University emailing me to get in touch. I guess it just puts it in perspective how things have changed since then, while its only been a year I just kinda came to the realization that not only have I graduated, its also been a year since then. I basically went full NEET right after school, so it was extremely difficult getting back to people and took a week or two for me to man up and write replies. I just got it over with, my heart was beating really fast and I probably made a bunch of errors and such but its over.

What I was trying to get at is the fear of aging just hit me and I'm scared.

Nah I'll kill myself once I notice that age is taking a toll on my body and mind. I'm pretty afraid of dying though and I hope that scientists will find a way to stop aging and turn us all into cute little girls before that.

Yes, and that's why I always use sage.

>>9970474
They wont
You wont

You will die of old age, withered and pathetic

>>9970476
Didn't I say that I'd kill myself before that happens? Life is no fun once you're no longer able to enjoy life to it's fullest.

>>9970484
I don't think you live life to fullest right now.

>>9970511
I'm happy and I can do all the things that I enjoy. For me that is what it means to be able to live life to it's fullest. I don't need thrills or goals as long as I can take it easy.

>>9970202
The z axis is in the wrong side, what a bakawww

>>9970196
>Anyone else really afraid of aging?
That's an alternative way of saying that you have no idea what you're doing and you're already regretting it.

>>9970440
>I probably won't be able to find a wife in time to enjoy the younger years doing lewd stuff.

Older people do lewder stuff than younger people as they grow bored with sex and lose the shyness of youth.

I'm scared not exactly of aging but of losing things I don't have yet or I won't even have, time after time when I finish a work and I happen to connect with the characters I feel a void inside scorching my soul as something important it's gone forever.

To this day I still feel it fully from Rozen Maiden as these characters became a part of me and then they were gone, somehow, I'm scared of the same thing happening with Touhou in a larger magnitude, it will crush me.
Even so the thing most scares me is finding love, having children or friends because one day one of us will disappear and either me or them will force that horrible feeling on others, I'm kind of depressive but I always manage to find something good in every aspect of life, but this one, really hurts me and it's unstoppable.

Neither I want to lose you, guys.

Being a grown up sucks, I wanna stay a child

The day /jp/ gets deleted is the day I end my life.

>>9970644
Don't go away from me, if it ever happens we will find other place, sites are expendable people are not, /jp/ may have got a heart already in its short life time but that doesn't mean it's irreplaceable, you, on ther other way, are unique.

>>9970644
I don't know if I'd end my life but I'd definitely have a mental breakdown. I've loved every minute of my time spent on /jp/ which is around 15 hours a day so its nothing minor. I don't think I've had this much fun hanging out with people ever before, not in real life or on the internet. After being on 4chan since the beginning I can honestly say that I've never felt so attached to the community as I have to /jp/. Things have been kind of changing around here but I've been sticking with it, because I love this place more than anything these. I can honestly see myself looking back to /jp/ in my old age with only the fondest of memories.

Above all I love all of you, thank you /jp/ for being what you are, I love you guys so much.

>>9970666
I don't think anything could ever replace /jp/. It just wouldn't be the same. Sorry but I'll see you in Gensokyo once the time comes, Satori.

hey im 25 and still look 18..dont know if that is a good thing

>>9970666
7 billion unique people?
Yeah right.
Being worthless is worse than being dead. At least when you're dead you're not thinking about killing yourself every day.
