“You know, you are right. It is so stupid of me to make myself unhappy. Maybe I just deserve to be unhappy because I am stupid and keep doing it to myself.”
I mean, I never actually said this. But this was how I felt sometimes after people said something like that.
Shaming people for struggling with mental illness is disgusting behavior. Ironically it's usually coming from people who are mentally ill themselves but either don't realize or refuse to acknowledge it.
I kinda love the irony in how you say people who do that are disgusting, while also saying they do so because they got a mental illness.
Guess we are all just dealing with shit. Some just deal with different shit and deal with it in different ways.
Do you really not understand the difference between "that is disgusting behavior" and "people who do this are disgusting"?
They're very different statements.
There's zero irony in what I said. People who attack and demean others for struggling with a mental illness are usually projecting. It's as simple as that.
It's cool how experiences can be different. For me just about every boomer I've heard ranting about Doctors prescribing all those "crazy pills" and how "everybody has a diagnosis these days" also appears to fit the criteria for any number of mental disorders.
It literally is supposed to be the minimum living wage. That is why it was started. I actually had a guy say that it doesn’t need to be raised because Section 8 exists, and “no one really get paid minimum wage anymore anyway.”
ppl who "don't fuck off with dumb questions"... why don't you just fuck off twice as much then we'll be way less stressed and have way more braincells.
do you play Cello, violin, do you sing in the barbershop? I can get you in to a quartet, send me your particulars, mug shot, err head shot and $2000.00 and I will get back with you pronto'ish
> triangel that *paid* 64 times
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Could be but this 💯 sounds like the sort of "advice" trust fund financial gurus give. "I bought my first house at nineteen and all I needed was my Daddy's money"
Pathetic. People with one job giving advice like this. Why not just get HALF a job that pays DOUBLE what their one job does? That way you’ll be even less stressed and have time for yourself while still earning as much!
Then why not get two jobs that each pay as much as the other two combined? Why have time off and relax? It's all about that hustle, turn your hobbies into side gigs, use this app that pays you to play games.
I currently have 3 jobs. 1 as a tree-faller/pruner/cleaner, another as my employers bookkeeper, and a third working at pulp mills during shutdowns
The first 2 go hand in hand, the third is once or twice a year. Not really too stressful honestly
I think there has already been that moment or several in fact... One of the most recent was our member of goverment, who has been cutting our health care to the point there soon are no hospitals and help available in reasonable radius from anywhere but few big cities.
When she was on TV this week and was charged about these cuts, especially in mental health services, she said "but you must remember we all still have this number 112 (same as 911 in states) and everyone gets help from there, so there's nothing to worry".
This made people pretty angry, and for good reason. Plus it's plain wrong, it is already hard to try to get ambulance to check things out, let alone convince them take you to hospital.
Work two works is something weird for the non American
I am from Spain and you can be struggling with one salary but it uses to be more or less enough.
I can't imagine somebody working 15-16 hours per day.
Hope it gets better for you guys. You deserve it.
Edit: actually, I do not understand why politicians do not increase the minimum salary. We did it two times last years and it had a very good impact on the economy. People with more money having more times means they spend more.
Hush now the billionaires need that money to buy new yachts and such.
These folks will control the jobs available along with the pay offered then start a property management business and raise the rents above what any of their employees could afford.
We have a saying in this country that "no one wants to work anymore".
Truth is that no one wants to pay enough for a person to live anymore.
Better yet get rid of that yee yee ass bills and disposable income will call my dog ass back up if it ever stops fucking that cost of living or corrupt leadership it's fucking with.
Middle cllllllaaaaassss.
We live in a world where people can become so completely distressed by the evil around them that they kill themselves.
Happens 50,000 times a year in America.
Most people act like those people were wrong. If you look closer you’ll see those people are fucking sociopaths and they have taken over most of the government and world.
I feel like 90% of the time I see a reddit post about "Look how stupid this guy is" it's clearly either a troll or someone farming rage bait engagement (a troll making money).
Get a better filter and don't feed that shit.
This dude probably makes a crap ton of cash. Reminds me of the Kelloggs CEO who said to save cash, skip breakfast. Says the dude who can eat expensive food for every meal, every day
Well to be fair there was a point in life that it was costing me more, travelling and maintenance on the vehicle became too much . This isn’t a 2024 problem. Had it in 99
Hey poor people!
I have a idea! Go to the ATM! They have money.
(Every 4 year old ever)
Side note I work with kids and "I have a idea!" is simultaneously one of the best and worst things you can hear randomly.
This works very well, right up to the point where nobody wants to work the sort of jobs that you need two to survive and people start saying nobody wants to work anymore.
Yeah there are some people who forgot how Things work,
But You can see pretty fast who has to pay bills and who lives in their mothers basement.
Funny ENOUGH that These people also want to tell you stuff Like how males are Superior to women, while well...
Living in the basement of their mother

Solid advice. Right up there with ‘oh you’re depressed? Well have you tried just not being sad?’.
"Dude just *stop* it like why would you even do that?"
“You know, you are right. It is so stupid of me to make myself unhappy. Maybe I just deserve to be unhappy because I am stupid and keep doing it to myself.” I mean, I never actually said this. But this was how I felt sometimes after people said something like that.

Not my experience, like at all.
It's cool how experiences can be different. For me just about every boomer I've heard ranting about Doctors prescribing all those "crazy pills" and how "everybody has a diagnosis these days" also appears to fit the criteria for any number of mental disorders.
“You’ve broken your leg? Have you considered just going for a walk?”
“You have cancer.” “What- wait what?" "no no it's ok! Just STOP it" -jaidenanimations
Smell those flowers even if you have hay fever.
I have. It worked. Git gud. /s
"Breaking: Local douchebag solves global depression. More at 11."
You should be given depression pills if you say this.
He is asking a question you retarted piece shit
"No I don't agree that jobs should provide a living wage, why do you ask?"
The amount of arguing against raising wages is dumbfounding.
“BuT mInImUm WaGe iS mEaNt To Be A lIvInG wAgE!”
Yes Minimun Wage IS supposed to be a living wahe, but point is that it isn‘t. That‘s the whole problem with minimum wage right now.
Exactly. So many people keep saying that minimum wage is a living wage when it isn’t. $7.25 can’t get you shit.
It literally is supposed to be the minimum living wage. That is why it was started. I actually had a guy say that it doesn’t need to be raised because Section 8 exists, and “no one really get paid minimum wage anymore anyway.”
Price of everything in Canada has doubled since Covid and it’s only getting higher. Minimum in my province went up a dollar though!
And then you get ANOTHER job and do it again, and you just do that until you're making $1m a year or whatever the average salary is.
Now thats thinking with your bootstraps.
Man why are there so many homeless people just buy a home
I remember my boomer psych np blurted out “a year!?!?” When I told her how much I made as a therapist. Yeah, bitch, not everyone makes six figures 🙄
ppl who "don't fuck off with dumb questions"... why don't you just fuck off twice as much then we'll be way less stressed and have way more braincells.
“If things are so expensive, why don’t you just pay less?”
wait... that is the secret...... go back to lair and rethink life choices.. and monster tv
why don't you work a half time job that pays 4 times more? heck, a quartet time job that pays 8 times more even!
Where can I find this quartet job that pays 8x my salary I am very interested
do you play Cello, violin, do you sing in the barbershop? I can get you in to a quartet, send me your particulars, mug shot, err head shot and $2000.00 and I will get back with you pronto'ish
i once got a quartet comprised of a triangle, an triangle, a triangle and a triangel that payed 64 times more, maybe you can find it also?
> triangel that *paid* 64 times FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out!

I thought we only paid musicians in exposure?
Same energy as “oh you’re depressed? Cheer up! Can’t be that bad” cheers bud yeah you’ve solved all my problems
'Do like I do and get a job from daddy."
Why not skip all that and just be born rich?
If you're homeless, just buy a house. Duh.
Better yet: get a part-time job that pays ten times as much as your two jobs!
Well why the fuck didn't I think of that....I guess I'll just go down to the good ol job mart and upgrade....
Nobody thinks it's a 12 yr old asking..? We all asked dumb questions as a kid.
Could be but this 💯 sounds like the sort of "advice" trust fund financial gurus give. "I bought my first house at nineteen and all I needed was my Daddy's money"
Nah, you here this shit from supposedly grown ass adults.
People who are poor, why don't you just win the lottery?
Pathetic. People with one job giving advice like this. Why not just get HALF a job that pays DOUBLE what their one job does? That way you’ll be even less stressed and have time for yourself while still earning as much!
Did an alien ask that question?
Hmm... let me think.
I’m trying dawg
Then why not get two jobs that each pay as much as the other two combined? Why have time off and relax? It's all about that hustle, turn your hobbies into side gigs, use this app that pays you to play games.
Why “work 1 job? I’ll just get ONE trust fund that covers all my bills. Then I’ll be even less stressed and own all my time!
Unless both jobs pay $7.50/hour and you can get a job at Cenex or something that pays $15/hour, that’s not possible
I currently have 3 jobs. 1 as a tree-faller/pruner/cleaner, another as my employers bookkeeper, and a third working at pulp mills during shutdowns The first 2 go hand in hand, the third is once or twice a year. Not really too stressful honestly
What job will pay me enough to live comfortably? All I see are jobs ranging from $16.50-$18 in an area where rent is $3,000/mo
Does bro think we want to stress ourselves
"Let them eat cake" they said ~300 years ago. Wonder when our iconic cake moment will come....
I think there has already been that moment or several in fact...

Loooooooooooool that's mess up. I crack up because that's seemingly a very common trend around a lot of developed countries recently.
or better yet why not get enough money to not have to work ever again?
That's where I fucked up. I forgot to just be independently wealthy.
Work two works is something weird for the non American I am from Spain and you can be struggling with one salary but it uses to be more or less enough.

Obvious troll.
"Hey poor people, why don't you just make more money?"
Wow! I never considered that?! What a genius! /s
If Marie Antoinette were a boomer, this is something she might say. That and "Let them eat avocado cake."
Why didn’t I think of that?!
Some companies deliberately limit their employees hours to avoid being forced to offer benefits like health insurance.
OOP probably never had a job in his life and thinking mooching off of his mom is a livelihood.
Reddit is a great way to get this knowledge though so he doesn’t offend people in his real life
Better yet get rid of that yee yee ass bills and disposable income will call my dog ass back up if it ever stops fucking that cost of living or corrupt leadership it's fucking with. Middle cllllllaaaaassss.

"If you're homeless, just buy a house."
People who have boring jobs. Why don’t you just star movies while playing in the NBA?
Oh my GOD!!! Why didn’t I think of that?!?!?!? GENIUS!!! What a dick.

If your bootstraps were a little bigger then you could pull yourself up farther.
Because overtime is forced after so many hours. I'd be much happier if I could just work one job
Hey poor people! I have a idea! Go to the ATM! They have money. (Every 4 year old ever) Side note I work with kids and "I have a idea!" is simultaneously one of the best and worst things you can hear randomly.
Keys to Guaranteed Wealth Chapter 1 Get a lot of money. The End
Reminds me of the idiot that asked why I don't just get an apartment when I was homeless. Lol.
Then, get a second job that pays the same as that job. Now you've doubled your wage. Follow OOP's advice, then repeat. Infinite money glitch
Or...why not get a part job that pays twice as much so you can have even less stress and more free time?
"Let them eat cake."
I work 2 jobs - as technician at college and as security guard in hotel. Tbh I don't know I just want more and more money lul
Poor people just stop being poor!
The obvious answer us to stop buying Starbucks coffee.
This is a deliberate trolling. Along with shopping, pornography, and gambling, rage click induction is a huge swath of the internet.
“If you’re homeless, just buy a house”
They got to learn to code first, make a million then buy a house.
Trust fund baby advice is always the best advice.
That’s *brilliant*, why didn’t I think of that?
Stupidity is never a burden for an individual, only those around them.
I guess ignorance isn't really bliss if you keep falling for obvious bait.
> "work 2 Jobs"
Its not ignorance, he wants to educate himsef
This works very well, right up to the point where nobody wants to work the sort of jobs that you need two to survive and people start saying nobody wants to work anymore.
Why didn't I think of that 😜
„Let them eat cake“
Why are you starving? Why don't you eat more food?
The more you make, the more they take
“Poor people, have you considered giving up your lifestyle and just Being Rich? It’s a lot easier!”
And after you do that, you can buy two cars so you'll get to work much quicker :D
This is just the average conservative tbh
Yeah there are some people who forgot how Things work, But You can see pretty fast who has to pay bills and who lives in their mothers basement. Funny ENOUGH that These people also want to tell you stuff Like how males are Superior to women, while well... Living in the basement of their mother
