kid i read one text, simply if anything you all are proving my point...
1. Ish probably couldnt hold a normal conversation with one person irl, without* being shy/embarassed hints why hes got no job/license(not sure if license is true but if so LuL)
2. Im confused im a dumbass cause i tell a kid how logically smart he is *sarcasm* for claiming to put out / completely shut out irl FOR RS? and he is proud about it O_O?
3. Lets see where you guys get in a couple years when moms nd pops aint around to pay the bills :>
Point #1 - Based on what evidence? The reality of it is that, as far as I know, in my state if you fail a drivers education class you cannot retake it until you are eighteen. I failed mine when I was fifteen, due to two main reasons. Number one, we did not have a car I could practice with - I was allowed zero minutes of driving outside of school, and about two-three hours total in School during the course, and number two excessive absence due to medical conditions, which thankfully have since cleared up a bit.
Point #2 - I didn't say I was proud of playing RuneScape. It's a simple task. I said that I was glad I spent my time the way I did, because I really did learn a lot about life, that I feel I would have not learned had I not been exposed to them. I think the things I've learned here, as a bi-product of playing RuneScape excessively will in the long run help me out. How you can and cannot treat people, how to spell (Obviously you need to work on this), how the world works, how to see through people, etc.
Point #3 - Well I know for sure I've got at least six more years before anything comes up. However, I have no intention to be sitting around until twenty-five. I've been recently looking into classes for a degree, and I've taken some mock tests for them. I got a 95% in Science, felt pretty badass. Aside from that, once my hand I recently broke is checked off and cleared, the plans are to go in the direction of a license.
See, what I've learned, friend, is that you can't just look at someone and be like 'Well fuck, they're a loser because they play RuneScape.' Each and every person has a bigass story behind them, and generally it's an interesting story. All of the people online I've truly gotten to know have been pretty unique cats, and all of their stories combined have taught me a different way to look at things. It's not about being an asshole. It's not about being better than anyone. It's incredible how much of what we do is meaningless, and once you realize this, the peace of mind is amazing. I used to think I was better than everyone in every possible fucking way and I stressed myself out about it. It seems in a strange way that you are still in that state, and I can only imagine the stress you put yourself through on a daily basis. That is, if you realize you're doing it.
