Help

Yes, it's very silly of me to start a whole thread for this but a) I'm desperate b) when the other sissies get tearful, you're all too happy to throw your two cents into the plate, my turn

You see, here's the problem. I'm bored to death. Usually, around this time of the year, I'm obsessing over a new PC, a game, stealing some guys girlfriend, etc.

This year none of that interests me. Crysis is gorgeous but from the demo it feels like Far Cry all over again. Portal rocked, but I'm not playing it twice. With the weather as it is, necrophilia is a little difficult. I got some money to spend... and believe it or not, I can't think of anything I want to buy. (No, you can't have some.)

Train surfing, crime, recreational drugs, babies have all crossed my mind and no, none seem like they're going to entertain me for too long.

Is this what they call "cynical" ? How do I fix it?

OMF dude, when I first read this thread I ROFL, LOLed and whatever I could do to laugh

Its classic bro!!!


On a more serious note though:
Dont worry, Im going through the same thing at the moment, Im looking around for hobbies at the moment, pool being my main one. I spend most of my time playing, apart from being at work

Come down to CT, my buddies and myself will show you a good night out on the town

Maybe Judas will have some wise words for you when he decides to login

Start playing ogame.

buy a paintball gun and shoot ho's... that's what i do... o and i play pool as well

@ Jeff - man, I'd LOVE to come through to CT, only I got family responsibilities at the moment *sigh* Thanks for the offer

Paintball sounds fun! I'll definitely look into that. Don't want to play anymore PC games though, I need some sunlight for a change

Start playing golf, its something you can blow a lot of cash on.

Good post.

You can always play with yourself...then again you might not last 1 min.

Hmmm... Let's see.. Learn something new - take a stab and learning a programming language, for instance... Programming is a good time killer, very satisfying, and an impressive skill to have on your CV. Or pick up a good book - The God Delusion comes highly recommended .

No problem PC! It is very interesting, provided you're not sensitive about religion - Dawkins has a rather aggressive style of writing .

I actually am not. I love these "going against the norm" type of methodologies

Well... Just a little bit

How are you finding it so far? Not too difficult? If you need help, you know where to ask .

I'm actually enjoying it, if I get stuck, I'll be sure to annoy you especially, thanks

QFT!

stop being in the process of "stealing" the g/f and just steal her already. You will be surprised about the amount of recreational activities one has then

Pacman?

Um well there are a few options here.

1. You could hit up facebook join the group called "Let's set and break a Guiness Record!!!! Approved by guinnessworldrecords" or "Six Degrees Of Separation - The Experiment".

Then just dis and argue with people on the discussion board.

2. Play Team Fortress 2 online

3. Go buy UT 3 and play that

4. Go to Lollipop Lounge

5. Get really drunk

6. Gym

I don't know what the hell "Lollipop Lounge" is, but that sounds good to me .

sounds gay to me... Or maybe its a teeny bopper club in which case I like my freedom...

Crysis is gorgeous but from the demo it feels like Far Cry all over again

Then spend some of that money on this game, and watch your attitude change. It's completely different, unless you actually LOOK for things like Crysis, but then thats your problem not ours.
