Holla Forums therapy hour

Get comfy boys, it's time for therapy hour.

I'm so glad you asked, therapy hour means any user posts a picture, news event or a general statement/opiniom and other anons tell us their feelings about said thing.

Therapy hour is meant as a venting thread or discussion about certain things that may be troubling you, either in the real world, a certain person, or most obviously, a videogame. Whether it be the direction of a videogame, fond childhood memories with it, why it means so much to you, or how it changed your life. This is not a judge free zone, so keep that in mind.

Let the therapy commence!

Its pretty good you gotta treat yourself righr

You always gotta treat yourself sometimes.

How can you drink three cans of soda a day?
I barely touch the shit.
I also barely touch any food I haven't eaten since yesterday please help

Discuss this picture

Why haven't you eaten? Doesn't your head hurt? Don't you feel light headed or lack of sleep?

Looks like every minute of every day in China, except that one of the models isn't being beaten by her retarded boyfriend and nobody's trying to extort the photographer.

When you gotta pee you gotta pee.

Nothing to really discuss. At least it's in a bottle and not on the floor

>>>Holla Forums
Please, we need more content. Holla Forums is fast enough as is, take some of this tangentially vidya stuff over to Holla Forums so it doesn't die.

Someone just needs a refreshing glass of baby piss, happens to us all

...

See an actual therapist.
I'm serious, starving yourself is usually a sign of mental issues.

I feel turned on by that, care to post more?

...

This makes me angry for some reason.

no

Down to 3 user
In usually 4-6

The girl on the left is ugly and doesn't even have tits.

I don't know what to do Holla Forums. I think this is basically a /blog/ thread so I guess I'm just going to blogpost a bit.

There's this girl in my chemistry class (college level general chem, if you're wondering), who I happen to be lab partners with. She's 27, nearly a decade older than I am, and coming back for her second bachelors because her first one was in international buisness. She's really pretty (I didn't realize she was as old as she was until she offhand mentioned it), she likes anime (and spent 4 years in japan), but I think she's a bit of a ditz. Would it be a mistake to try to work towards a romantic relationship with her? She's signifigantly older than I am, and I'm not really autistic or ditzy.

I guess what this really boils down to is; are shared interests and physical attraction enough to sustain a relationship? I almost would be more comfortable around her if she weren't so attractive, because then we'd just be fellow weebs.


girl on the left looks like a man.

The mods have to actually do something with Holla Forums to save it at this point. Notice that the mods don't just let people shit all over the board here? That's part of why its successful.

Ibs need just about enough moderation that some sort of autistic can't just stomp all over the board. Holla Forums is currently getting stomped on by autistics.

Are those trannies? Also, this shit is why nobody likes Chinese tourists.

You know what? Nevermind.


Yeah, that's how relationships start. I say go for it, if you're confident that you won't screw this up, then you're in good hands. Really.


.>>10653627
I feel the same way, I wanna punch that kid.

Ditzes are fun for a while, and older women are much saner than younger ones as long as they aren't crazy. You don't know how much you really share with her yet so if you want to give it a try why not?

Have some more

I'm gonna be a father soon.
Give me tips on how to survive.

You're going to have new feelings for your child, and your inner dominant gentle giant is going to come out. Give that kid a good life, you're going to have no idea what life was like before it existed.

Shut the fuck up my dude.

Just be there for them.

You couldn't wait til you got home, you faggot?

Dont burn your wife like my dad did

What's wrong with mobile screencaps, user?

Okay, got it. Just calm down anons.


Fuck.

...

This would be my first relationship, though I've only recently gotten over some incredibly autistic waifu-ism. I'm more than a little scared of screwing it up because I really would like to be friends with her, and I don't want to destroy that by trying to take it another direction and having it fail, and failing seems reasonably likely since she's more than 50% older than I am.


You do already have those protective fatherly feelings, right? I think most people get them eventually after puberty.

Neat

...

When she turns twelve fuck her.

My PC was out of commission at that time

Nobody does facial expressions this well anymore in pron.


Who even likes that shit? Fat old men?

I'm 21 years old. You think I like seeing girls who are so hot I dream of having sex with them having sex with an old/fat man instead?

This trend in porn HAS to stop.

Maybe its the artists self insert, who knows.

Fat men or old men. "She wants the dick so badly that she'll even fuck this disgusting piece of shit so I must have a chance" is the world's saddest fantasy.

I think it's supossed to represent the lack of standars the girl has. Somehow that makes her sluttier.

I don't. That's why i'm worried.


I always believed artist self-insert in their own draws, and most of these artist are fat fuckers.

You sound like a legitimate fucking cuckold, not even in the memey sense. End it, man.

You never get them? You don't ever see a kid and think that you want to protect them, 2d or 3d? Its the heart of what makes moe charming.


My life or my hopes?

I need to get out there and get a job, but i can't muster any strength, i'm getting nowhere like i'm now.

I want to get out of this fucking life and i don't know how to get enough willpower to jumpstart this shit.

Just 2D sometimes. I'm autistic as fuck, i don't even know how i managed to have a relationship.

If you dont feel ready for kids you probably dont feel ready yet. Did you already get your wife pregnant or something? Who knows, maybe you'll turn arounf after she gives birth.

She's has 6 months already.

Write about your feelings and frustrations, it's therapeutic, believe it or not.


This isn't about you. I don't know why I thought that when I saw your pictures, but it seems you really are socially autistic.


Boy, you don't get women at all. It's funny, because older would LOVE to settle with a younger guy, or at the very least, fuck.

Put your worries aside, if you feel like this is IT, THEN DO IT.


I was in the same boat, your brain is in idle mode. Your toughts are worse than your reality.
You just need to stop thinking so much and go for it. I've been in the exact same situation.

They'll develop a few days after she gives birth. You actually have to be attached to the little bastard.

Am I really a monster for ditching a 3-4/10 because of her looks? I already feel disgusting that I put my dick in her but I was in a desperate place at the time. Also how the fuck do I regain my self-respect, I should've had standards.


It's fairly normal for fathers to not connect with their children until they're around 1-2 years old so don't sweat it if you haven't got those fatherly feelings yet.


If you're not in any hurry then take it slow, slowly build up your willpower. Start by eating right, then move to exercising weekly, then multiple times a day. Force yourself to go outside, it'll build up the confidence and willpower to push you over the edge to get a job.


Jesus lad.

It sounds like you're lonely and you're letting that cloud your judgment. Women generally don't make good friends, and failed relationships don't end in bitterness unless you let them. There's nothing to lose except your self-respect for not trying to date a QT who shares your tastes.

The guy in that pic isn't actually that fat, it's the robe and the baldness making you think he's fat.

Read the IDs, this is a different guy from unless I'm missing something

I FUCKING HATE VIDEO GAMES

Me too, after not playing them for a year it was odd to feel not attached to them anymore even though I did end up going back to playing vidya.

My IP changed, calm down m8.

I mean, ID, whatever.

You have to go back
>>>/r9k/

>>>/tumblr/
>>>/4chan/
>>>/reddit/

It's normal for humans to not want to settle with something they don't deem as attractive. Is it cold? Yea, is it normal, of course!


Me too!!


I agree, it is better to have loved then lost than to have never loved at all.

...

That's r9k, friend.

Edgemasters invading the thread

Well shit. You're gonna have to ask another user or someone who's been there before for help, I dont know jack about that sorta thing. Did you feel like you were ready to have a kid before though? I'm guessing you had to to want a kid.


Its honestly hard to feel attached to some now, I cant remember the last time I played the hell out of one game and replayed it numerous times compared to when I was a kid. Maybe its time to look for other hobbies I guess.

I DID point that this isn't a judge free zone, so suck my dick. Feelings are good.

...

Inspected!

First word that came to mind: FREEDOM.

INB4 Zero Trigger Discipline (doesn't have any)

It's spreading, and it has to stop.

No feels. Only poopoo peepee Nazi time.

I do have another 12+ weeks to make a move, though I'll probably have a conclusion and have acted on it in 6 or so weeks.


I don't know if this is IT. I think the main reason I feel like I shouldn't pursue it is I think I might be able to do "better" in terms of dating someone smarter and closer to my age down the line, but I don't know if either of those things is more important than shared interests. (I doubt they are) I'd say its just a passing interest but I do really want a relationship. is proably right about the loneliness clouding my judgement.


All my friends want me to play bad video games with them like dota.

Several things. Go ask >>>/reddit/ . If you can figure it out, it's because you're an inept piece of shit and I hope you and everyone like you die without procreating. You're all a fucking blight.

Great, I'm judging you. Fuck off.
You can express your feelings in other threads all you like without making a fucking "feelings thread". Otherwise enjoy creating a fucking fracture that allows invasion.
If you want to cry about shit go to /r9k/. Holla Forums is only for crying about video games.

I wish I talked to other people back in school; I don't like being alone, but people scare me. Things were supposed to get better.

Then i'm going to talk about the problems that don't let me play videogames :^)

This has nothing to do with vidya, and you know it.

Confession threads were acceptable, 4am is a shitty circlejerk, but this?

It's cancer.

Suspected I was missing something.

Might as well join in the blogposting fun.

There's a bunch of smashfags at the college I'm attending, should I join in or just hang around and share the banter?


At least your friends aren't like my brother who is also my roommate and pick up a game, tell you to pick it up, and when your better judgement is finally worn down and you pick it up they fucked off to the next thing.
Thank god for steam refunds.

On the bright side, I feel accomplished after rolling an 11 to attack in 100% OJ.

No. You're going to discuss video games, and video games only. No tertiary discussion.

Have you tried joining some kind of club or group? Doesn't have to be vidya but some hobby. Sure it's mostly full of tumblr and 9fag memers but there's a chance you'll find some decent people. That's what I did at least, I don't talk to a single person from my old high school anymore.

cant you faggots just ramdonly shitpost like any decent shitposter?

They can just wait for 4am, but I guess it became too much of a circlejerk for them.

I wonder why?

There's also plenty of academic clubs that, if nothing else, at least get you the connections to roneryfag with a half-decent budget.

Y'know I use steam a lot, but moving to linux has really made me despise it. I want to play 100% OJ more since its just on my shitty win7 laptop, but to do that I'd have to WINE the steam client in addition to my native linux steam client, and keep that one up to date too, all while running games through WINE.


What level of schooling are you in? Were you promised the rose-coloured campus life or are you currently having the watamote experience?

Don't leave your kid, and don't die on them.

t. depressed kid

This isn't cancer though, you're literally rubbing your own feces all over your face and crying foul because someone made a thread you didn't like.

Dislikes =/= Cancer.
Unless people start shitting it up with avatars and tripcodes, then I'll give you the upper hand.


Mark allows it. Don't like it? Get the fuck out.


Now I feel like this is all one person. Are you using VPN's by any chance, are you this autistic? You're definitely one person.

Ignore those posts man. Dont reply to them, thats what the hide function is for.

I was actually more prepared to die alone than having a kid.


I'm gonna try.

Except it is, because the discussion pertains to society rather than anonymity, which compromises exactly what this site is made for.
These threads in particular? Prove it.

Then what changed your mind? Was it settling down with the girl of your dreams, or a bunch of pressure from other people?

Life's going nice lately, I wonder what horrible things does the nearby future hold for me

Do you see a single trip or avatarfaggot here? All I see is anons, you know, the thing you said the site is made for.

Good. Losing my father permanently fucked my shit up.

I don't mean to scare you, user, but it's important that a child has their father no matter the gender.

...

Help.

You're not making a good case as to why you shouldn't go back to reddit.

This, absolutely. This spring, one of my physics classes, there was this 16 y/o girl, pretty smart, though she got pushed ahead cause >women in STEM. She had 5 exes, and was encouraged by her mother to not worry about society thinking she's a slut or anything like that. Shockingly, no father in her life.

How do you have internet and a computer.

Can't you just hop on a car and get a job in Colombia or BR?

Was the same for 4am, at first.

People who come back to these threads will inevitably become recognisable, and even introduce themselves as "[subject]user", even.

It's a slippery slope.

Time to go innawoods.

...

I've had this computer for years user. It's not like I went and bought one yesterday despite not having any money just to shitposting on Holla Forums

Internet is one of the few ridiculously cheap things because it is subsidized by the government. Less than a $1 per month. However, it's super shit tier. My download speed it's 200kb/s at best.


Frontiers are blocked and closed.

Besides, just go to another country where you know no one and have nothing and just get a job is much easier said than done.

these won't become a regularity, will they? I certainly hope not. Maybe once every few months, but nothing as often or cancerous as 4am or waifu wednesday.

Can I just take the time to say

FUCK TRAINING MODE

?

Do you have any technical skill?

My company here in Colombia is looking for people to work online in Venezuela, we pay in USD and might even consider sponsoring people to come here.

We just fugged and then one day she came saying "hey you're going to be a father lol". It didn't changed my mind, this was just a surprise.


Well then.

Do you deal in cocaine or heroin?

Computer and IT stuff in general. I got my ass to start learning programming since last week too.

I fear that i'm going to lose my will to play videogames.

Agreed.
I only posted in one 4am thread, shortly after the exodus, before any of the worst IDfags became who they are today, and it was actually pretty comfy.

So you're just waiting for better options then? I get it, it's fine. How long do you think you'll know each other?


It's true. I don't remember but there was a chart saying that kids that grew up to be a father became dysfunctional criminals who never graduated. It's terrible man.


Then why don't you come and shit up the thread then, you spergahontas? In fact, why don't you go into the 4:AM thread when it's made and piss your panties about it there? All you focus are on the "maybes", which gives you an excuse to throw nothing but hollow arguments. Fuck off to 4:AM and complain there.

I wanted this to be a one time thing, but now I'll make more. Until the attention whores invade, this will be a biweekly thing.


Damn. You're right.

I've been looking for a job for over a year and a half now since graduating college. Just got turned down from yet another one yesterday, and I'm really starting to get worried if I'll be able to find anything decent.

I'm not really sure what to do at this point. I guess I'm just too mediocre to get anything worthwhile.


I think I've been slowly coming to this same conclusion recently. I've been playing them less and less over the past few years, and none of them can really hold my attention anymore. I've been devoting my time to better things like painting and /tg/ stuff. I might start trying to write more, too.

It sort of pisses me off, though, because my knucklehead friends are obsessed with all of the latest trendy games and streaming/podcasting shit on a seriously half-assed YouTube channel. I've been trying to get them to play less vidya and more tabletop stuff, but they're only really interested in it as potential material.

Bunch of fucking faggots.

HOW DOES ONE EVEN BEAT THIS MISSION WITHOUT USING AUTO-FIRE ON THEIR LIGHT GUNS?

THATS NOT EVEN TOUCHING LATER LATER LEVELS LIKE KEEPING THE COIN IN THE AIR

*without a father

House of the Dead 3 is the best in the trilogy.

Software house, webapps mostly, we are looking for programmers and designers. Colombia is comfy as fug user.


Give me a second, I need to create a disposable email.

Whats wrong with 4?

What did you study?

I feel you user, some of the shit in those games are pure bullshit. Next to impossible.


2>3>Overkill>4>1

Frontiers and borders are closed? That sounds like they dont want anyone out at all.


Thats honestly my nightmare right there, on top of it being a shotgun wedding.

Well, good luck. Dont expect to get any sleep the first few weeks or months, but hey I'm sure there are loads of places to get advice or help nowadays

I'm not a criminal but the only reason I haven't put a bullet through my head yet is cowardice and people interfering with my business.

Losing a father isn't just losing a person, it's losing their wisdom, their advice, their guidance, their love… everything. Even things like punishment. I would give anything to see my father again even if only to get a good smack right in the mouth to set me straight.

I haven't seen this posted in a 4am thread since forever and I don't know why.

Nothing, i just think 3 is better.


I haven't played Overkill yet, is it good?


Believe me, if i knew how things were going to be, i'd picked to be alone the rest of my life. Oh well, too late now.

okay user, send me your CV or similar thing. I will check this email on Tuesday (already made the reminder) so don't feel like you need to rush it.

Who knows? I might be able of helping you.

I just answered truthfully, too. I think the test had more to do with how much of a bleeding heart are you than a desensitized person.

I dunno, any Britfags going to EGX or Play Expo this year? I don't want to be lonely.

I don't entirely understand the point of this thread, so I hope that counts

I have no idea how long we'll know each other. I'm really completely lost when it comes to something like this, I didn't go to highschool cause I was homeschooled all the way up to college (which I ended up in early), so I've been a bit socially stunted for the last 4 or so years since my friends from my time being homeschooled have all drifted away, though I wasn't too close with any of them anyway.

I tell myself I'm waiting for someone perfect, but they don't exist. I think the main thing actually driving me away from relationships right now is that I still live with my parents, and I'm kind of embarassed about that, because it seems like I wouldn't be able to do much with anyone, since it'd be awkward to hook up chinese cartoons to our TV or anything like that, and of course its pretty lewd-deterring, though I'm not really concerned either way about that.


music

It's alright, if anything it's worth playing for the ridiculous dumb B-movie story. Fun fact, it has the guinness world record for most swearing in any video game.


I didn't even know we had conventions and shit here in bongland.

Don't ruin christmas by calling the cops on their mum and then making them spend the holiday with your mistress.

Software development. I know I probably should be /agdg/ right now, but I lack the motivation, imagination, intelligence, and a computer in good condition to really do any of that.

I just answered truthfully, too. I think it has more to do with how much of a bleeding heart you are instead of how empathetic you are.

Yeah but at the same time it tells me 3 things.

1. Arcades are pretty much dead in the west.
Unless you go somewhere like Dave & Busters, good luck finding good arcade games that aren't Fast & Furious/Deer Hunter/Dirty Driving/Terminator/Alien bullshit

2. Games these days have gotten so easy now the challenging aspect of them are pretty much gone. Why bother perfecting your skills and getting rewarded with something like a funny costume or new character when they can be turned to DLC?

3. The Dreamcast died too soon.


If you're a fan of the Tarintino/Grindhouse style, sure. I thought it was meh.

Jesus man, what's with all these fucked up childhoods in this thread?

Not that mine was any better.

It'd be nice to try, but in the end, when you start yapping about personality on an anonymous imageboard, you defeat anonymity. Same thing happened to 4chan.

People wish the same of drawthreads, but there are some people who are so pathetic that they must expunge every facet of their life into anonymous discussion. It's an inevitability, like drug abuse.

It's not shitposting when OP's a faggot.

I never expected that anything would come up from posting here. I just wanted to vent a little. You are a miracle user. Thank you so much.

Where do you think we are, user? If you don't have at least one suicide attempt under your belt your a casul

I think they're making a slight return really. There's one opened up recently here in north England, it's full of classic arcade machines from the 80s and 90s and filled with pinballs too. I've heard of these kinds of relics and hobbyist arcades popping up. There's still hope user.

I mean, I'm kinda puking out one facet of my life into this thread, but most of my friends aren't particularly helpful, so it really helps to have a few outside opinions.


Not the user you're helping, but I don't see the email in the email field. Cloudflare seems to block em.

Okay, i'm in then.

Refresh the page

How did yours fail? I learned fro mine that fitted sheets make a bad rope.

Is this one:

[email protected]/* */


I'm glad, I hope I can help you user.

There are quite a few. Most of them are weebshit, but those two are are for videogames. They have a lot of arcade machines and different systems at Play Expo to play on (never been to EGX) but I feel like they removed some to make room for more expensive stalls.

Oh, forgot to add:

Even though unrelated to the Dreamcast and the games themselves, I always hope that past stuff gets future proofed and archived so that people later on can play them because I hate the thought of them being lost to time and nobody having the chance to try it anymore.

I don't go to museums but I really get why stuffed gets archived and I hope people continue to do that.

I guess those old arcades are given, I did go to one like that months ago. Wish they had games like Cruis'n, Gauntlet, and other SEGA games but I guess they'll do. (Even the trendy hipsters would go there I imagine)

And I forgot to add to the arcade bullshit: Fucking mobile games like Flappy Bird, Cut the Rope, and Fruit Ninja. Because what better way to attract normalfags and people who don't give a shit about vidya than to remind them that the app they play on their phone can be played at the game center?

Huh, I see. now I'll be able to read all those SAGE email fields that I was missing out on.

Agreed. My father left us when i was just starting highschool. I was grown-up and thought it won't affect me that much but i ended up doing some stupid ass shit in my teenage years. Never leave your children alone.

Tried to shoot myself but there wasn't a bullet in the chamber and I chickened on pulling the trigger a second time. Good job on saving my ass, dad.

Vidya conventions always seem cringy to me, although I've never been to one even though there's occasionally comicons close by in Manchester.

Link to the tests you capped plz

Well they pretty much are nowadays. I wouldn't dare myself to go one because I have a feeling it would just make me insane from all the 'Hey guise, whacky Mario references!' & how many trendy hipsters would be there eating each other's farts

I don't know how the big guys can even handle being asked the same questions and other crap

And now I am reminded of webm related

that's because its part of their plan

PE is in Manchester. I'm not a big fan of MCM. I used to go to the one in London and it's always overcrowded I imagine Manchester will be slightly less so and expensive and full of people trying to be "ironic" and "cool" and want everyone to know they go on 4chan. There's also very little to do other than walk around all day and possibly drink with other people.

That's I prefer the more videogame-oriented events. At least there I can almost experience the arcade days minus losing loads of money on the machines.

Have you seen the arcade place that opened up in Bury near Manchester? I've been meaning to check it out since I don't think many hipsters or faggots know about it and it's closed to under 18s on Fridays.

My first fucking day of university I found someone like this, I never wanted to strangle someone so much.

Fuck, now I remembered the disaster that is DashCon

Fucking 1 hour in the ball pits

reminder that someone pissed in the ball pit

That was a great moment to create some OC, like this one i did.

I hadn't heard of it. Do you know what is called?

what *it is called

arcadeclub.co.uk/

£10 to get in, free play on everything.

Awesome, thanks man. I have been in /vr/ mode almost all year with the exception of Splatoon, Mario Maker and a handful of PC games. I never really stopped playing older games, but it still fills me with joy taking in the music and sounds of the arcades and 4th gen consoles and experiencing videogames in their most simplistic form.

This is miles better than any current 4am thread, because there are no avatarfags.

I say the moment they come up we stop these threads immediately.

It's against the rules for avatar/tripfags to leak out of their contaiment thread anyway, so we'll see how it goes. I just want a good thread with good vibes.
