You do have that option.  I do it purty much every day.  Wtf are you waiting for? :satansmoking:




Yeah, okay.  You do realize you're talking to a majority of impoverished, college-age stoner kids, right?

Same as I was at one time.  I was paying $16 a month rent, with 6 other people, in Michigan winter in a farm house with no insulation.  The warmest we ever got that house was 53 degrees. Most of the winter the pipes were froze and we had to take our shits at school.

And now you're livin' the dream!  :nicesmile:

There needs to be like a stoner version of 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' with stories like these.



I don't have a problem with 'working' towards your own goals - if they are actually 'your' goals and not some pre-planted lofty symbol - what I mean, is the kind of work where you're just considered one of the 'worker drones' in the big mechanical cog. We aren't little ants scurrying around like a bunch of headless chickens, obeying our glorious Queen mother. We should have the option of settling down in a quiet valley somewhere to pursue libertinage if we so desire.  :ducklol:


But unfortunately, a group of assholes, with help from their pretentious line of ancestors, have acquired the resources, technology, and legitimacy to preordain a list of hoops we have to jump through so that they can continue to feed on their truffles and power-trips.

Actually I've never really had any concrete goals.  Most everything I've tried to get behind has been so much pie in the sky.

I just ended up where I am. I got here but there was never any formal plan.  I was just trying to figure myself out and had no time for anything else.

Are you satisfied with where you ended up?
