>Implying I listen to something other than Eurobeat

I fuckin' love betas!

Those are some unusual lyrics.

This i why I listen only to Piano.

ur right, i'll replace it with lady gaga and justin beaver

>Cute girl
>talks to you
troll detected.

I don't get it, why did you greentext something like it happened to you if all you wanted to say was "HAY GUYZ YOU SHOULD TOTALLY GET OUT OF YOUR BASEMENTS ROFLM XD"?

I was always a sad kid, but when I found my mother's diary five years ago and read about how she had another secret family that she was going to leave us for, I really cracked. I left for college soon afterwards still having some symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, with nightmares still occurring nearly every night.

A few months afterwards, I had gotten to the point where I was oversleeping to avoid my problems, usually sleeping 15-20 hours a day.

I finally sought psychiatric treatment 3 1/2 years ago. They initially put me on Provigil for the over-sleeping and Lexapro for the depression, and they were both crap. Then they put me on Wellbutrin, which just made me feel jittery about 4 hours after taking it, but was still crap. Then they moved me to Effexor XR with a Cytomel (hypothyroid med) supplement; they kept increasing the dosage of the Effexor, and I am now at 375 mg/day. If I forget to take my pills, I feel like I'm getting electric shocks to the brain.

I still want to kill myself every day.

Stay classy Anon.
Any recommendations?

Pa-pa--pa-pa- Panda Neko!

Well excuse me... Some people grew up with it and is part of there culture aka asians. Also its a good thing to do when ur bored. + your list of anime is prob less thn 0.001% of whats actually on the market. Not all anime are or children and nerds there are large varietys targeted at different groups.

Also teen titans is not really anime tho drawn in a very similar/same style as anime. There are certain rules it does not follow making it a cross breed

And yes i am awfully offended at your steriotyping.

Thankyou. P.s. and no animes not just about hentai... Add more variety to your gallery...

Keep posting this thread OP I'm sure you'll get someone upset to make yourself feel better about listening to MCR.

I think Beta is a pretty cool guy.

>>6269427
This. I hate to say it, but this is one of the few instances where OP really should "lurk more", preferably on another board.

>>>/v/75465545

>>6269457
sup Beta

>>6269430
Don't do that, do hardwork to be famous and great, and then, when your mother runs to you, you can say to her that you read her diary.

>>6269458
Apart from the greentext, I sort of agree with him. If and when you go outside, you should conceal your powerlevel, etc. You don't want to be listening to video game music in public, even if you are wearing headphones.

I dress in a fashion to conceal as much of my appearance as possible, move quickly and make no eye contact with any one. I would never leave the house(and only for good reason) with anything worth stealing or commenting on. I am as undesript as possible and if someone still had the gall to try and chat me up I would feign deafness/ignorance of the language until they give up. OP you've got nothing on me.

>>6269495
He's mostly right but could have made his point without trying to sound like an alpha male...

I think there's an appropriate time and place for everything and listening to video game music in public is a minor faux paus compared to, say, shitting on the floor in a public restroom, but there are some public places where it might be ok (i.e out at a game store or arcade or PC game cafe with friends)

>>my face when I'm lifting at the gym and Atelier Rorona battle theme pops up
>>alpha as fcuk

Deal with it OP nerd.

>>6269535
We all know you are a normalfag, ZUN. No proper sense of shame.

>>6269535
ZUN!bar what do you wear to bed?

This is a true story:
>Cute girl from my class stands next to me, we are both waiting to get picked up.
>We are both listening to music.
>She asks what I am listening to.
>I proudly proclaim (I forget what it was, but it was srs hardcore otaku music)
>She knows it!
>Turns out she is listening to some anime song and is totally a hardcore otaku
>I never talk to her again

Okay, so my story ends in a failure because I suck at human relations but the point is don't hide your music or otaku status. Because there are girls out there with similar interests. You just need to find them and not fail like I did.

>>6269544
>This is a true story:
>I never talk to her again
This actually sounds believable, for once.

>real music
I'm curious now; what could be called "real music" for normal people? Lady Gaga?

And I really wonder if there are people who are so close-minded they can't even listen to INSTRUMENTAL Japanese music.

>>6269532
I don't get it, why is that?

I like my video game music. It's on my MP3 player, no one else should hear it. Where the fuck is the problem?

>>6269532
Because of your choice in wording, if ever I leave my house I will promptly find my nearest game stop and shit on the floor there.

>>6269564
But it's from a video game, right? Then it's not real music anymore than pixel art is real art.

>>6269587
Yeah, normal people are stupid. Thanks for the confirmation.

>>6269568
Oh, I meant blasting the music from your car or boombox or having it play in the background at a game-related place

I listen to touhou all the time outside, and people don't ask.
Never display your powerlevel, it just isn't worth it, ever.

>>6269598
This has nothing to do with being normal, just don't do things like that in public. If you want to avoid being in public all together, that's fine, too.

>>6269568
Most headphones bleed like crazy. Unless you have a good set, people around you can hear it.

>>6269654
And why would any person with working common sense play music in public instead of wearing headphones?

>>6269658
>>6269660

>>6269658
>>6269660

>>6269658
Considering how low I keep my music, they would have to be unnaturally close to me to hear it.

>>6269658
He could just get a pair of IEMs

wear IEM.

90% of Touhou themed musics are non-vocal anyway. I would think people would be more put off at not having any vocals than just Japanese ones.

True story: I once knew someone who played some Japanese salsa in their car.

>>6269658
Just don't turn the volume all the way to maximum then. That shit isn't even healthy.

And I guess I now understand why this thread was made here. >>>/a/41195320
thank you sion

"This cool Japanese indie band, you probably haven't heard of them, they're called Nakadashi no Ii Kimochi".

Crisis averted, OP.

>>6269700
>you probably haven't heard of them

This works all the fucking time.

>90% of Touhou themed musics are non-vocal anyway.
You need to listen to more of the c78 album releases, you're missing out.

>>6269677
>>6269676
Anyone know a good pair or maker? I've actually been looking for a good pair of IEM for myself to bring with when I go out. I'm not bringing a pair of full sized headphones with me, that would be dumb.

>>6269495
Why in the hell no? Random bypassers wont come and ask me what I am listening to.

>>6269708
Also all high-end headphone make you look retarded.

Get a Sound Magic PL-50, awesome sound good price, and can be improved with exchaning the tips for Shure one.

>>6269694
I don't even like music, I just can tell from people who listen to music on portable headphones that they don't really do anything to conceal the sound like normal full sized headphones do.

This gets all the chicks man

Listening to my MP3
>cute guy sits next to me
>asks what i am listening to
>tell him it's the Megaman X soundtrack
>have conversation about how awesome the Megaman games are

>>6269708
How much are you willing to spend?

>>6269432
Try Everfades - Reverie.

>>6269740
Oh, Touhou related.
No thanks.

>>6269729
Recommend him the Mega Man X arrange album made by Capcom from 1994. It's really good.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG4FuUjlHyE

>>6269694
Game music > moe moe desu Lucky Star anime vocals or whatever.

Oh my gosh
How do I tell if my car is bleeding my Miku music all over the place?

Cute girls never sit next to me. Only hot milfs sit next to me occasionally.

you gelatin?

>>6269759
That's just because game music tends to be instrumental and not silly character voices. If you listen to real instrumental music, you would realize it isn't nearly as good.

>>6269764
That's the thing, it's impossible to tell. That's why you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.

Listening to my MP3
>Cute girl sits next to me
>Asks what I am listening to
>Realize I don't go outside
>Realize she's a home invader
>Get under my desk and cry

>Listening to MP3
>No one sits next to me
>No one asks me what I am listening to

It's actually DJ Shadow/Nujabes/DJ Krush/Dillinja/Fat Jon/anything nice and soothing.

This is what I am listening to now.

Feels good....I feel good man.

>>6269768
Neither teenage girls nor middle aged women sit near me. Instead, adorable preteen virgins play around me. Are you jealous?

>>6269768
>u jelly?

Nope, enjoy your washed up, rode hard put up wet whores. Besides, you're not going to do anything anyway.

>>6269759
Hey thanks; I'll look it up. I only have the normal ingame stage music but a remix/arrange version is fine, too.

>>6269410
Well this did happen to me once. Only that the routine was that I was standing next to her on the bus everyday to highschool and it wasn't otaku music but Dark Reign 2 OST. She found it cool, I complimented on her hair's natural color and asked why she dyed it black.

>>6269771
>>uses real instruments
>>made by people who have been composing music for decades
>>game music actually sells well in Japan and has been a viable genre since the '80's

Nope.png

>Listen to Child Rebel Soldier
>She wants to fuck

>>6269730
If they're good I'll pay for them. I like getting nice things for cheap like anyone else though, so the more bang you get for the buck the better I guess. If I had to give a price limit, I'd guess about 175 for some IEM.

>>6269806
Songs from musicals are made by real musicians and sell well, but that doesn't make them real music instead of music that you are just listening to just to remember the story.

>>6269410
FUN FACT: I have a girlfriend & a cougar I'm trying to get with (she's only weird w/the 20 year age difference). DESPITE being a blatant weeaboo. Feelsgoodman.jpg

You are a faggot.

My sister told me she thought Suwa Foughten Field was neat.

What now?

>>6269786
How did you get a job at a kindergarten?

>>6269806
Awesome shitpost. Reported.

>>6269823

Put your penis inside her vagina.

>>6269826
I don't, I just like to spend time in this one park and read, so the neighborhood children are used to me.

>>6269495
What's wrong with listening to anime & video game music in public again? I do that shit in the ghetto and no one gives me shit for it. Neither did people in high school

>>6269759

Got links to where to DL this?

>>6269838
Because everyone is laughing at you in their minds. You don't want people to laugh at you, do you? Then don't do anything that calls attention to yourself as a geek.

>>6269818
EVEN FUNNER FACT: No one gives a shit. Enjoy your AIDS.

>>6269644
Fuck yeah ghetto niggaz

>>6269640
Why is it 'not worth it' exsctly?

>>6269846
Because I'm sure a whole lot of people can tell what I'm listening to when I have fucking earbuds in.

>>6269846
*sigh* No, listening to asian themed music does -not- make other people laugh at you. If I didn't have t worry about this from the ghetto kids who were cool w/tihis when I really don't see a problem. Of course I had a rep in HS....

>>6269849
Sup OP? u jelly that I put my foot up your ass for spewing normalfag garbage?

>>6269660
Street Parties/Street Demos/events (say Critical Mass), city fests (same shit), musician sampling (aka people who do stuff on subways) etc

>>6269872
Were you one of those people who actually thought they were popular, while everyone burst into laughter the moment that you were out of hearing distance?

>>6269685
nope. EDM is popular, people play that in headphones and in cars where I live (Chicago)

>>6269904
Pray tell, how would he know they burst into laughter the moment he was out of hearing distance, if the distance between them wasd sufficient enough that he could no longer hear them.
