Life is good

[iLikeHippos]

Meh, life is a video game that we are connected to using super servers from the REAL reality; This is all just an illusion.

life is assassin's creed?

Aaah.... You got me! Was worried no one would reply for those 2 minutes.

I suppose it is. It's none the crazier than any other theory I've heard so far anyways.

I really, REALLY need a bigger picture of your avatar! Pretty please, tell me where you got it, its awsome.

Well, The Escapist only allows a 75x75 avatar pictures I believe. If you buy premium you can make the avatar bigger, since they can host 200x200... Or something like that. I believe that there was a thread about it.

Otherwise, the picture comes from here.

Hell yes, go life! What a wonderful life it will be, too.

Having lost all 3 of my jobs 4 years ago, I went into massive debt the likes of which I'll never recover. I'll never own a house or be able to buy a new car. Hell, I'll be lucky to get utilities in my name again. What a wonderful life it will be indeed.

I'm living in a time when my state has a 10-12% unemployment rate. I won't be able to find a job for the next 5 or so years. I'll almost be 30 by then. A wonderful life indeed.

Wait till you get a taste of the real world, when come tell me how great life is. I'd trade every possession I've ever owned for a less than minimum wage paying job right now.

lately i have not been myself thinking about how bad the world is....but it just hit me that life is a wonderfull thing and that we are very lucky to be liveing it. sure the world is gone down the shitter lately but think about life itself....its great, we have games, we have the sunshine, we have family, and we have eachother. so from one human to another, i say to you fellow escapists....have a wonderfull life.

Personally, I live in a first world country, so things are going fine. My biggest worry is that I just ran out of bourbon, and I have to choose between rum and Scotch to keep my buzz going. Shame about all those people who weren't good enough to be born in the right country though. I sure God has a reason for putting them through all that though.

life is packed full with shit, and any second someone thinks abou tit , they get thrown in a catatonic state of depression. However depression and negativity is for pussies! cause life is so shit that it's awesome!!! in fact...I love my life!!!

I have been through sooooo much shit, soo many problems (bigger than most people think)
yet i manage to stay positive and smile!! enjoy the great things, like my cozy home, my loving mother, my playstation 3 and so much more things that fill me up with warmth.


life is shit.

life is awesome.

No, YOUR life is fine. There's much more people suffering from TRUE pain (not your boyfriend dumping you, or having to move away) than there are people who are happy and live a nice life. I enjoy my life, but I know life in general isn't good. The idea is, but humanity as a whole, executes it terribly.

well then I guess you are the weakest person Ever! I too have been through more pain than a a girlfirend dumping me or whatnot, you gotta think outside the box..think that the only things that are important are the things beyond the physical existence, the things that mean more than just a physical attachement..and even when you lose those things, or something bad happens...your bad attitude isjust pollutin gyou and others around you..you can't say you are being more realistic by depressing over how shit life is...in fact you just appear stupider to other people. weaker, in fact..for a person that can't cope with pain, which is a big part of the challenge of life, is in fact very weak.


so stop bitching, open your FUCKING EYES and get the fuck out of the closed shell of shit you have surrounded yourself with, for remember


REALITY IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT, so if you enjoy being a closed depressed guy..then go the fuck ahead

 

[FeetOfClay]

Live is beautiful, incredibly awesome, and I mean awesome in the most literal sense of the word. The very fact that it exists is so fantasticly positive that it easily drowns out the negatives of the few individual human lives that aren't so good.

Are you mentally incompetent? Would you mind telling me what you thought I said?

 

[The Arc of Eden]

It's happy people like you that make me look more evil and miserable than I am. I dislike life, but I seek to enjoy it like everybody else.

World population, once thought to be a problem that would destroy us all, is levelling out.

Really now? I find that rather comforting, as I thought if nothing was done and if no one was willing to do anything about it there would be quite a problem. Is there a particular reason it's levelling out?

Yay for happiness.................*high fives*

Damn you lightning fast-ultra ninjas! Okay, I was kinda slow... But that song is just brilliant. I am now also happy that I'm not the only one who watches discovery!

[HEADING=1]I'M HAPPY[/HEADING]
No, really. My friends are the best I have ever had. I finally feel as if I have now got the people I wouldn't mind seeing for the rest of y life. I always was a slightly lonely and anti-social child, but that is improving.

Happiness to all and may you live long and prosper!

 

[adam352]

Being as i'm having a really bad day I have to say i don't like your optimism...

But congrats

 

[SmartIdiot]

Probably the only thing that can genuinely stop the human race from progress toward brighter times at this point is a big wave of uneducated trendy Internet nihilism.

That is the greatest sentence I have read today.

OT: And hey, when life does get you down, there's always grindcore.

And if you enjoy attacking other users for little to no reason, go ah- Wait, no that's against the rules and you are the one bitching here.

Anyway, life. It's all, like, totally subjective and stuff. Man. Seriously though, life is 'ight sometimes, and not great at other times. It all depends what kind of person you are and what you've been/are going through.

Fertility rates falling in developed countries, mainly. At the moment the world population is expected to peak at 9.22 billion in around 2070 and then remain relatively steady, and even start declining somewhat. 9 billion is not significantly much more than what we have right now, and it's a number the planet can easily support, especially if people adopt more sustainable ecological practices (which is gradually happening). Some countries in the third world are projected to experience an internal population crisis (such as Afghanistan, proof that war does nothing to halt population growth), but globally, we're basically in the clear.

Straight back at you, I like your attitude. This tends to be my outlook, except all the time. It just irritates me because this attitude normally gets me labelled as some sort of eccentric, which I am , or some ridiculously optimistic teenager who "simply hasn't realised life's true miseries yet". Probably because I live in Britain, where everybody is either completely repressed (goddamn British reserve!) or simply a whiny, miserable SOB (See Russel Howard's stand-up for the inspiring rant I normally send such people's way). Forget that! So have a good one!! And thanks for all the fish.

Life is neither good nor bad. Life is just there. And I try to make the best of it.

 

[Not-here-anymore]

I've recently got past clinical depression, the sun is shining, my xbox hasn't died, and I'm going to see Muse in September. For me, life is good. Or... what's better than good? Great?

Actually, getting past the depression is enough reason by itself for me to be feeling good about life at the moment. I have my mind back! Woo!

 

[Jedoro]

I'd have to say I'm one of the lucky ones:

-No car, but my family's willing to drive me around so I can make it to my full-time job
-I'm also about to start my second year at Uni, where I have an excess in scholarships so that at the beginning of the semester I get $1000 to pay for books and then pocket
-No girlfriend, but for the past nine months I've been dating and talking to a pretty girl, and will fly down to Disneyworld in two weeks to spend some time with her
-I have the money to keep paying for Xbox Live and my World of Warcraft subscriptions so I can game with my friends when I can't leave the house

Yeah, life's pretty good, and it just looks like it'll get better soon.
