>Oldfags give youngfags advice based on their mistakes and regrets from the past

Don't pick drugs over getting laid

don't be a fag

Stop voting or giving a fuck about politics. You're wasting your time.

avoid herpes, and when a woman seems like a dickhead sometimes it's because SHE IS.

Thanks dad

You want to be successful in life learn to sell, if you can sell you can always get a job. You can apply sales skills across all sorts of other sectors / industries.

I wished I'd learnt that when I was a teenager.

Isn't it illegal not to vote?

Don't sweat the small stuff
Things that seem important to you now are not in the greater scheme of things
Honour your commitments
Women are people too
Don't fall for the macho knuckle-dragging "alpha" bullshit
Study hard - it's only 3 years and it's so much easier than trying to do it later
Don't measure yourself by what others think of you or what possessions they have
Try to avoid debt, except for a mortgage, and pay that fucker off asap
Social media is bullshit - everyone lies about their lives and they are not your friends
Don't observe your life through a viewfinder or over your shoulder in a selfie
Enjoy the small things - take pleasure in a drink with friends and a simple walk

How do you learn that?

Punch him in the face if he fucks with you. Don't yell, don't react none other than punching the motherfucker in the face. It's quicker, less drama and all you get to do is walk the fuck away.

no matter how pretty a girl is, no matter how perfectly formed her bone structure, how bright her smile or how wide her eyes, no matter how sexy and alluring a girl is, no matter how shapely, no matter how boner inducing - she's still just a girl

she's one of 3.5 billion people with a vagina and has millions of clones

she's space dust like you or i or your cat or your dog or your hamster or the tiny shit particles on the toothbrush you left uncovered in the bathroom when you flushed the toilet

if you live in the west and have a roof over your head and no cancer then chances are, your problems and worries are completely meaningless

Shitty advice, stay out of trouble.

Why were 6 years of my life shit?

Elaborate pls

Warning. This advice can lead to a criminal record and permanently damage any employment prospects you may have had.

Use this advice only if you are mentally retarded or live in a macho fantasy world

Or in Detroit.

Mental problems, nobody understands me.
I'm at home alot at the moment.

This animated gif will help you when you feel as though you have problems

More info, how old, how you ended up like that? How was high school.

Sorry. I should have added that to my list above
- Move out of Detroit

True story. I work in the auto industry in Europe and had to visit Auburn Hills on business, with Ford I think. I got a taxi and there was a piece of 1" thick perspex between me and the driver and a little rocking hatch for me to pass money to the driver, and the doors only opened when the driver let me out. Being used to UK and European taxis I asked the driver what the fuck was with the armour - without batting an eye he said that the company bosses sometimes expected them to take fares into Detroit. I vowed then never to go there.

Sex is OK, but it's honestly kind of boring to me. Never once have I been bored on LSD.

How much you making?
I'm from France and desperately looking for a job.

How funny, thanks haha

Not in the US

>How much you making?
About £50k per year, plus benefits. Getting close to packing up and retiring - the wife and I have over £1m in funds, two cars, house and no debts.

Nice man, hope you and your wife live a happy life.

Don't waste time looking for a purpose. there is no ultimate end to reach on that front.
Pick whatever you want and make it important to yourself, then focus on it.

Or kill yourself.

T. Nihilism

Thanks. She earns more than I do, married many more years than the average faggot on here would believe. Been good together for the last 40 years

Best of luck with your search - if you've got a numerate degree you should be golden eventually

Run while you still can

Dont do drugs
and if a girl likes you, you should give her a real chance

one of the most important realizations you have to make is that you are the center of the universe you yourself perceive.

if you are happy, your universe is happy.
if you are sad, your universe is sad.

nobody matters more than you do, so don't waste your mood on someone that holds you back.

do what makes you happy and find people who will tolerate you doing it.

Its not gay if the balls dont touch

i prefer the term pragmatism

dont eat yellow snow

What does that mean?

it means you're a fucking retard

Contrary to this user, voting on local levels can change a lot. If you stop giving a shit that's when politics turns into a shit hole and a private corporation takes control of the nations wealth. jmo maaannnn

My wisdom is college is a waste of money in most cases and you better make sure you have a job before you even start your degree. If you're hoping for guidance counselors to help you find a job with your degree in philosophy you're going to be out of luck. Don't discount trades school and remember a lot of the time parents are trying to live their own goals through you, keep that in context when they're telling you what to do.

You mean like... Piss?
Or what?

LALALALALALALALA CAN'T HEAR YOU GO FUCK YOURSELF NIGGER YOUR MOM IS FAT

why would there be piss in snow, he clearly meant mountain dew

Get out somewhere else. The world is big, I mean vastly big. Staying in your home town will only cement you staying there. Take chances, you will only have to eat the regret you have from not doing it, for the rest of your life. Know yourself..it may take some therapy or even a group of people who sort out their emotional problems together, just get it over with while you are young. We are all fucked, bad parents, PTSD, low ego, high ego, depression. Etc. Go see a professional and get to the root of it, if the psychiatrist gives you drugs, find other means or another psychiatrist. Just fucking fix yourself and be comfortable with what you really are. When you are older this is much more difficult. No one else should define you.
Then, you will find that you shape your environment to what you want, because you know what you really want.

thanks

Bumping this

It doesn't change a damn thing. You're deluded. As soon as they get any office higher than "Town Selectman", the higher ups get their dirty meathooks in em and the shakedown cycle begins again. Fuck politics and fuck politicians. Round them all up and fucking shoot them.

This

For the guys in uni that think they're gonna make it big time.

You are not your job. You are not your bank account. You are not the BMW you get from work.

Don't give up your health, both mentally and physically, for your career.

Do not measure your success by what others think of you, but by how happy you are.

If you don't believe me now, you will in 10 year from now.

What if you live in a first world country where you get paid to go to college?

In what age should i get a girlfriend?

Do whatever. It's all going to go away soon thanks to China's carbon emissions. We've got 50 years left as a species, tops. We're not able to settle other planets and won't be ready by that time either.

Especially you do not need to vote. Pls don't

Shut up, pussy

My greatest piece of advice is to leave this place. Those who come here with perversion know that they will grow, those who come here with curiosity know that only misinformation and trap porn shall be found here. For some there is no leaving this place. Leave while you can or else remember that you're here for ever.

I just don't want to have to worry about money in the future. I also don't want to be stuck working with something I don't enjoy doing. Getting both requires some sacrifices.

The people who I though were my friends turn out to be Just aquaintances who I spent time doing bullshit with, how do you get real friends ?

That's a bit paradoxal

Sex is great, child support, not so much. Get laid, don't make it your life, just a fun hobby, have kids in your 40's.

>China
Fuck off, the US releases almost three times as much per capita.

Churchill was autistic with women and married only in his thirties, but he was happy with his wife ever since.
Don't speed up things too much.

Ask him/her out
Don't waste time on idiots
Stay in school
Do drugs in moderation
Talk with your parents
Don't get married before 25
Don't get kids before 25
Don't trust "i'm on the pill"
Punch first

*before 35

Plan for the long term. Don't opt for short term satisfaction. Sometimes "fun" has to be put on hold.

Fair enough

what if she's in the same class / at the same job as you for the foreseeable future?

Is everything before that pointless?

If you have to ask yourself, "Should I be doing this?", the answer is most probably no.

Significant others can come, and go. A great friend or friends are more likely to last a lifetime. Sometimes the line can be blurred on which to keep or move on from. In these cases take note who was the first one to bring up ditching the other group. As well as considering which group aligns more to where you want to be. Whether in the present, and future.

You can always fall in love again, and make new friends. But, these two seperate relationships can, and should work together in an ideal situation.

Never take back a cheater. Basic concept, but hard when you think you're in love.

Don't work hard, work smart. Dont lift more than you should. Ask for help. Documnet injuries at work heavily. Etc. Doing what you love is the worst advice ever. Do something that's practical, that you can find some pride in. To allow you to do/live where/what you want.

Don't stress over being alone. Or what your peers are doing or what they've accomplished. Focus on bettering you always.

Learn to lie. Learn to do it naturally, and well. Lying is an invaluable skill. Learn what your tells are. Learn to play poker. That helps with spotting tells on yourself and others. Plus its a good game you should know to play.

Always carry a weapon of some kind or have an escape plan in mind. You never know these days when shit could hit the fan..

Always assume someone your fighting is the best fighter in the world, and that they're armed. If a fight is unavoidable, or simply needed.. fight for your life. Dont fight fair. Fight to destroy your opponent. Learn some basic takedowns, and moves and work out a bit.

Take a daily vitamin. Its easy, and helps in the long run.

Find a few hobbies. (4 is a good number) to devote time to. Gardening. Wood working. Reading. Music listening or making. Videogames are fine. But find other outlets for enjoyment. It makes your life richer. And makes you a more interesting person. It enriches your life.

If you don't know where to go in life, just do something. It' better than doing nothing.

>Is everything before that pointless?

I mean is it pointless to get a girlfriend before 20?

Honestly I agree with him, it's not being macho it's being practical and knowing when to stand your ground. Some times it's better to roll out punches and GTFO ASAP

Go for it. Besides getting murdered what's the worst that can happen? She says no? ;)

tl;dr do it faggot

Dropping knowledge here

This, by far the best advice. A lot of people get stuck on everybody else or trying to prove something. You have one life, make it how you want it but be happy about you.

Most important: Base your career choice on what you want to do and not what others or yourself expect you to do.
If you realize you made a wrong choice don't follow the path you are on just to proof something.
Be friendly, smile and look other people into the eyes if you interact with them.
Move out of your parents basement as soon as possible
Go to the gym 3+ times a week

This is the part of your post that I dislike. In which third world country do you live in that you would need to physically fight? I have had a few fights in my life and one thing I learned is that the damage is permanent. The scars from stitches never went away, dislocated jaw reminds me of itself from time to time. Broke a finger beating a guy senseless. It looks crooked and doesnt work 100% like it did.

I could've just ran, but I chose to fight and now I have to live with the consequences. Till the end of my days.

Other than that, I fully agree. Quality advice.

I used to hate programming in elementary school, but for some reason I chose to study it in high school. I gave up after a few months, and changed to something else (I felt it was too difficult). But it kept nagging me for 2 years, so I went back a third time and did and got a university degree in games programming. It wasn't something I wanted to do, It was something I felt like I had to do. Now I kind of like it, and the pay is great. I guess, if there's something you regret not doing, it doesn't mean it's too late.

There's a difference between some sacrifices and living your life for the job.

It's all about finding the right balance although that sounds gay as fuck.

Cont. And tl:dr altered.

> never get married
> if you go into the military get trained into something that transfers to civilian life easily
> Assume she is NOT on birthcontrol.
> Be respectful to cops during traffic stops. Be up front about potential contraband. 9/10 they'll be cool, and just throw it out etc. No tickets.
>when gambling or buying anything with cash only bring a set amount. Whatver you need etc.
> never carry cash if you can help it.
> prayers for healing may be bullshit, but keeping a positive attitude when dealing with sickness or an injury is a good thing. Surround yourself with loved ones if possible. Good vibes etc
> its okay to make assumptions about people based on what you know or see. Just keep in mind what you don't know when it comes to assumptions. People are predictable if you know enough about them
> don't date for a life partner. Date to date if you're up for it. Men or women can introduce you to new friends, interests, and enrich your life. Just don't get to attached.
> if you hate your family make sure to find some friends that you can stand then. Sometimes family is toxic. Blood relation isn't an excuse to be terrible to someone.
> the little things have more meaning than over the top things. A hand made christmas card for your mom. Versus a singing hallmark pos. Its also arguably cheaper. A win-win
> learn to budget, and save. The further you can think in the future about possible expenditures/ways to save the better.

Thanks, I think I know what you're talking about.

People overestimate what they can do in 2 years time, but underestimate what they can do in 5 years time.

Love is like a business partnership, it's not magical.
There are globalist cabals trying to brainwash you so question everything ESPECIALLY in college.
You're probably not special so you may have to do things that aren't "you" to make money. There are ways to avoid this but don't bet the farm on the first idea you have.
Whatever you want to do, dont' get caught up planning and thinking. Do it. Don't try to do it or think about doing it or plan how it'll go when you finally do it. Just do it. Small, steady steps every day but do it.

Well, my advice might not work for everyone. It sounds like you were in a situation you regrettably could of gotten away from? Or maybe not.

Situational awareness is a great thing to have anywhere in the world. People are dangerous. Not all the time. Or everywhere. But they can be. Being prepared can make a big difference for some.

Sometimes, in my opinion violence is needed. To because I seek it out. But, because it seeks me. In such an unavoidable situation it pays to be prepared. A weapon may scare off an attacker or attackers.

If you absolutely have to fight, especially with numbers, show you mean business and fight to kill. You never know if someone plans to take your life before its to late.. let alone how much damage they can do to you. They won't make sure you're still breathing in said worse case scenario..

So as I personally advised. Prep for the worst. Hope for the best. And ideally know the difference between unavoidable, and when you can get away.

Tip to overcome procrastination:
Just tell yourself you're gonna do the thing for 5 minutes. Everyone has 5 minutes, just do it. When you're done, congratulations, you're done!
But if you want to, you could always continue, chances are you will.

What kinda work do you do?

You aren't good enough, talented enough or lucky enough to make it in the entertainment or music industry. The sooner you realize this the easier your life will be.

You will not 'make it'. You aren't special.

What type of music are we talking about?

Bad advice because some people are good enough. More better advice would be to be realisticer.

I'm a programmer at a triple-A games company in southern Sweden.

I guess the only downside is that people think you're living the dream playing games all day.

Bumping

I guess I'm just a faggot who cares too much what people think of me. I'm afraid of all the questions that will arise from people around me when she says no.

when/if*
I guess that shows what I think of it.

They may be good enough, but they aren't good enough AND talented enough AND lucky enough.

This applies to any kind of music.

I'm not saying abandon music, I'm saying Don't quit your day job.

this, local politics is alright, but forget the rest, if you care about your own happiness

Maybe so. I hear you, but no one will remember it. Do it next time you see her or post your nudes. It's on, son. Make us proud.

Never reveal your hand. You have power over people when they don't know your allegiances.
Learn to listen to people.
Don't stress about women, they come and go and the right one will find you.
Have hobbies that get you out of the house.
Eat well. If you can't grow or kill it then it's probably bad for you

find you a woman that enjoys cooking

try to live off the rat race, or escape it if that's your thing, but don't race it

contemplate if you really want to live the next decade or more of your life paying for a house when there are other more practical options

avoid stress

>If you stop giving a shit that's when politics turns into a shit hole

You're a few thousand years late. Nothing to be done now. Politics is for lulz. If you didn't sit back and enjoy the rare racist pepes this election you did it wrong, but it's not too late.

If you get more than 50% of the vote you win in democracy. Protip: 50% of the population has double digit IQs. 1% has an IQ over 130.

My advice is learn what you can't change and then learn to be okay with that. Don't get worked up about shit unless you enjoy getting worked up.

What have you talked me into.. fuck fuck.
