Does the constant cynicism and overly critical nature of what I assume our personalities are ever get old to you?

This is how everyone is and those people saying stuff in chipper (wassat) voice are retarded. You have good instincts, dont worry about it

I just realized I made it about ME ME ME after asking about the cynical nature of this sub. But then again, that's that shit seeping into everyting. I probably just need to stop listening or coming here altogether. It's pathetic that this place and the show had such an impact on my life. I know I''ll regret this all in the morning and go back to my normal shitty self, having learned nothing.

I like cynicism. It's honesty. I hate the rest of reddit, and the type of people they are. They're all fucks.

O&A should be glad we're their fans. If I were a comedian and given a choice as to who listened to my shit, it'd be the people here over the alternative.

I can definitely relate to what you're saying, but for the most part I think I enjoy being cynical/critical. I definitely don't think that attitude and happiness are mutually exclusive, but I do think it probably correlates strongly with people who do have a decent amount of dark thoughts. Those are my favorite kind of people as long as there's some balance. The idea of being one of those cornballs who loves the front page of reddit and posts/upvotes "Directed by M Night Shyamalamadingdong" or "I did nazi that one coming" for the millionth time makes me nauseous.

On the other hand, actually interacting with people like that in person isn't really a problem for me. You don't have to be able to relate to people on most things to get along with them, and you can relate to pretty much anyone on some level. I don't really hold people's stupid chipper attitudes against them as long as they mean well. I just accept that we're very different people. Most people worth knowing will appreciate cynicism on some level as long as you don't just miserably wallow in it. And if you can't help but do that, then yeah it's probably a pretty real problem that you should address some place that would help you better.

Good luck budday, I hope you do wake up tomorrow. You're one of the better posters on here IMO.

Thanks man, I aappreciate the time you took to address this. It means a lot to me.

No problem man

Do you smoke a lot of weed? That tends to make people overanalyze things. Well...except blacks, but they aren't people so they don't count.

I smoke about a gram of dro a week, so not a lot at all.

No, not high at all, except for the somas and booze. I'm been fealing this for a while.

In the words of the great Mel Gibson: Stop being that!

I'm trying.

Talk to your rabbi

Mel Gibson wouldn't say that

I dont know shit but... Maybe dont think of them as idiots , see them as being lucky happy people, and see the absurdity of your own cynicism and laugh at it

That's an interesting way of looking at it. I'll try doing that in the future.

Perhaps think of it more as "insightful" and/or "skepticism" that drives you. Maybe you should concentrate more on working out what you enjoy, and less on what you can tear down. Perhaps you can channel the fact that you need to understand things on a deeper level in order to enjoy them into something enjoyable, or useful.

Maybe I'm an ass, I dunno.

Also, there's nothing pathetic about coming here.

I must realized how pathetic it is that this is the place I turn to cry for help. I guess I figured others here have gone through similar situations.

It's only a poor choice of place to turn for help because of how unhelpful these lovable cunts are, but I bet you'd be hard-pressed to find a more concentrated group of people who can relate to the problem you're having.

Smoke weed, it will numb your cynicism. Or at least heighten it and make it entertaining

I won't have weed till Friday, and haven't smoked for 3 weeks cuz I was unable to get it. Shit, I think you may have just solved my problem, or you're atleast helping me bury it, which is fine by me. Weed definitely makes me less cynical and more empathetic.

I wouldn't make a blanket statement like "everyone smokes weed" but in my experience working jobs and the like with social interactions, almost everyone my age I know smokes weed to numb their own self hatred.

Invest in good weed smoking stuff and ensure you always have weed. You don't have to become a stoner weed person to realize weed makes your life more tolerable. Once your mind goes to a certain degree of realization you become too cynical to repair and everything is insufferable.

I'm a lightweight smoker, a gram of dro last me a week. It definitely helps a lot.

oh yeah, necklace stealer? haha, jk, I dont have the attention span to read all that right now but Im sure I'd agree with it if I did.

Stay strong, brother.

Hang in there.

I hope I don't wake up tomorrow....

You and me both, pal. RIP

Until you're famous enough to babble like a whining neurotic effeminate Jew to Stern or Maron about your psychological journeys and existential crises, just shut the fuck up because no one gives a fuck about what you think or feel.

:(

I think the last time I noticed was during some red carpet show for The Hunger Games movie and seeing people lose their shit over meeting some nobody stuntmen/actors that played nameless characters in some shit movie and realizing that I will never feel as much joy and excitement for anything as much as those faggots were.

I feel the same. I also hope he doesn't wake up tomorrow.

Do you mean me? Yes I agree.

1) Get a girlfriend youre wildly attracted to and fuck 2) Get a job that gives you a sense of purpose 3) Find friends who you can bash and crack your style of jokes with.

I dont have these things but it seems to be a reoccurring solution to my (similar) problems

HA you down vote solid advice OP, on second thought the answer to your problems to eat a bunch of sleeping pills ;)

Sleeping pills don't work as well as other options. Besides, only girls use sleeping pills to end it.

Jesus dude get ahold of yourself. It's the fucking internet and yes life sucks. Deal with it faggot.

Yes, it's the internet. Thank you for reminding me. It's also a place where people can go to get stuff off their chests and vent. Not sure this was the best place, but I was expecting to get shitted on like Norton from a tranny.

hahaha I didnt understand your post very well but Im the worst drug addict/alcoholic on here and whatever your ununderstandable crisis is I get it
