I'm 28 and I feel ancient. I wish I could start over in life, but I can't. I wasted my teens/20s and now, right when the long painful shitty grind until death is about to start, I still don't have shit, have accomplished nothing, never traveled or dated or moved out or got a degree or hit any of the typical milestones and am an unlikeable, crazy, unemployable pathetic loser everyone's forgotten about. Being born as this specific idiot person that I am is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.

I have stuff, a job, kids, a wife, and all that and i’m still a miserable loser. Enjoying life is a thing you have to chose to do in spite of your circumstances, rather than because of them.

For further reference, see Elon Musk: the dude literally has it all and i catch myself genuinely feeling sorry for how pathetic he is from time to time, that man couldn’t enjoy life even if he had literally everything

Dude has an unlimited supply of ketamine. He probably is actually enjoying life most of the time, unfortunately.

Not quite there yet. I’m thin and pretty active. But I take a lot of beatings and my bones just…fucking ache.
