You zoomers just can't understand the pain of wanting to share your hobby or interest with someone and just realizing they can't even understand enough to get their foot in-the-door. You end up having to try and sell them on the entry-level shit just to explain to them what you're into and then if you manage to pull that off, you have to explain you hate all that entry-level shit and you're much further down the rabbit hole. Everyone thought I was bizarre growing up just for spending time online while they couldn't even use Microsoft Word. I've watched basically everything I loved as a teenager that I was ostracized for be later embraced and made mainstream by a new generation of people who have never known what it's like to be bullied.

26. No, I just went to college, got a degree I didn't end up using, and now have a very limited amount of options. I don't have the money to move out or go to a city where I could use my degree. No experience doing anything besides cold sales for a few months. Might go to McDonalds or something.
And scratch that, I NEED to leave this hobby behind. The last few months all I have done is play video games and watch vtubers. My mom knows, when she cooks, or I cook, and when we eat together, I put livestreams and clips on the television.
She asked me if I had the girls numbers at least. I need to stop.

If you got an English degree thinking you'd get into law school, you just wanted that for the money and didn't go through with it because of how ridiculously competitive it is and you'd probably end up an overworked ambulance chaser before going anywhere else, then yes.

Boomer Asian parents watch news constantly, they're aware of influencer culture because they broadcast documentaries about streamer houses constantly, especially the Chinese ones where entire apartments are dedicated to housing camwhores and food/fashion vloggers. If you told them about VTubers, they wouldn't be too surprised as it's just streamers but with an anime avatar.

I am a depressed man. My life is nothing like I imagined it would be. My existence is defined by consumerism. What broke me is my mother's worry for me and her perceived "failure" because of my misgivings.
I can go 6 hours straight watching streams and clips. That isn't healthy. I need to stop, because I have no control over this.

[Anonymous No.]

>>18796738
Jesus Christ anon, why are you making your mother cook for you and forcing her to watch vtubers? I'm also 26, didn't go to college and have a job. You need to get your life back on track, man.

Anybody can watch 6 hours straight of streams and clips. Hell, I watched Kson build a gunpla for 9 hours straight the other day. And the cute and funny bear stream for about 24 hours (except a couple of naps) on new years.

Know what else I was doing while watching those streams? Excel, nigger. Because I have a mortgage to pay, food to eat, and memberships to pay.

Get a fucking job. I was also depressed when I was a NEET. I lucked out by being allowed to work from home after 2 years of being in the office because of the pandemic, but there's a bunch of remote jobs now. And again, if you move to the third world, getting a job is easy if you're white, specially if you have an English degree, and the cost of living is low as fuck.

Getting a job without connections is impossible unless you have a specific in-demand skill. It's why people shill learning to code so much, it guarantees you a job even if your the biggest antisocial autist in the world. With most degrees you're going to have to network and meet the right people if you want to get a job anywhere. Most online job listings are fake, and those than aren't almost always just hire someone who is friend with the manager's brother.

Do something you hate for most of your waking hours, that'll be sure to cure your depression! Normalfags continue to amaze me. There's nothing inherently bad about the NEET life. Most people are NEETs because they're depressed and mentally ill, not the other way around. The entire retired population are technically NEETs and you don't see them clamoring for the chance to wageslave again. There is something to be said for being productive and doing something with your life, but you don't need a job to do that. Spend some of your infinite free time as a NEET learning another language or practicing art and that will fill that need perfectly fine.

Nigger, I was a NEET for 8 years. I legit hung myself, unlike Rushia who only baits it for fancuck akasupas. Sadly managed to cut the rope once I started thinking about my family finding me though.

The depression pretty much went away once I had to get busy with work because otherwise I wouldn't have a roof over my head. It was replaced by high levels of stress and anxiety, and of wanting to be a NEET again for sure, but the depression certainly went away.

You know what I'm not any longer though: my parent's embarrassment. Now they're actually proud, and you know what my mom does if she catches me watching a vtuber? Ask if I want something to eat while I'm either toiling away or resting, because she knows I'm actually not being a waste of space for at least 45 hours a week.

Shit sucks, yeah. But that anon has to decide: does he want to be a burden for his mom, or a wagecuck? Unless you strike the lottery or something similar, there's no other options.

[Anonymous No.]

I'm not driving her insane; she can see how sad I am, how she has tried to reach me but failed, and she blames herself for me being a stupid, lazy faggot when it's my fault. At most, she sees/hears vtubers for 45 mins every other day.

If it's your fault then you need to take responsibility for your actions and do right by her. Become someone she doesn't have to despair over. From one diagnosed depressed person to another, you are wallowing in your own self-pity. You know what you need to do.

Some of my friends are into them & I used to discuss it with them, but we never watched the same streamers. I don't want to hear them talk about whatever NijiENs and I'm sure they don't want to hear me talk about indies/small corpos so I just don't bother with talking about them outside this board & dedicated discords.
I few weeks back we had a "remote happy hour" and one fat neckbeard guy got asked by our army veteran 3x divorced 50 something boss what his most recent watched youtube video was. He proceeded to say it was a VOD of Millie playing Slay the Spire and try explaining the concept of vtubers to said manager and I wanted to fucking die. I've accepted that I'll never bring up this activity with anyone IRL because it isn't worth it.

for my family, "visiting" pretty much just means stay in the same place, but keep our distance and do our own thing except for a few minutes of passing through conversation. we're all very reserved around each other at the best of times, at worst it got very very toxic (though that went away once they divorced)

they know what my job is and that some of its work is take home so if they see me goofing off and not doing it = lecture, even if I actually had a week plus from that point to get it done and it wasn't that much work to do

If that guy is still reading the thread, it's not to late for him to change. He has family supporting him and probably doesn't have to pay rent. He should take advantage of those circumstances to the fullest instead of making the same mistakes over and over again.

I have no social life. I only talk to me dad. I tell him about the rivalry between two anime streaming people companies one where men are kings and the other where females rule and the males are in their own designated ghetto. I specifically tell him about how the fans are all lonely faggots that throw hissy fits over MALES. He gets a kick when I tell him about the latest spergouts over MALES "Some white girl they championed as being pure is doing a stream with some of the jap anime pretty boys so faggots are throwing a hissy fit" or TAIWAN style yabs "Chinese are mad again because some southern jap american woman". My dad's a bigger weeb than me but has no interest in watching anime streamer people. He only wants to watch prince of tennis, gate, girls und panzer, and that index anime all day.

Most of my interests are niche and very few people i know irl understand the type of things i enjoy and the ways in which i enjoy them. Thats why its so refreshing when you find someone with similar interests who understands and appreciates things in the same way that you do.

29. Weeb my whole life. Had a Bachelor's Degree in Maths/Statistics and a Master's Degree in Business Administration. Currently an accountant, making good salary, having decent saving, living alone and independently. I still watch Vtuber everyday, while meeting my deadlines, cooking, working out and socialising (not necessarily at the same time). A couple of my friends are actually also into them. It's really not hard. Just don't get a useless degree like Art or Pink-haired study, while being less lazy. Wake up early. You can stay up late but still ensure you get at least 6-7 hours of sleep.

I got drunk with my dad recently and told him about vtubers since I'm going to start streaming as one soon. I didn't go on and on about it and he was pretty supportive.
He still doesn't get why anime seems to be so preoccupied with prepubescent girls, and I find it funny that that's even on his radar since the only anime he's seen me be into are Dragon Ball and JoJo.
