  • I can’t even tell you how many times I tried to put together a big event and had two or three people there.

    For my 21st birthday, I didn’t even do the planning, my best friend had invited all our favorite people that we worked with and went to school with. He made plans for someone to drive us around and a list of the local bars that he wanted me to visit. In the end, it was me, that friend, and my girlfriend. We sat in a dive bar for about two hours until my girlfriend took us home because she wasn’t feeling great and didn’t drink.

    That’s probably not even the worst one. I’ve had so many nights just sitting and waiting for everyone to arrive only to entertain the same two people that I hang out with every day.

    I don’t have any great tips for you, because I don’t try to do things like that anymore, but I understand how you feel, and it just really sucks. Sorry it fell apart like that. Take a day to focus on you and I hope you feel better.







  • Now is the time for empathy.

    Imagine your favorite game was getting shit on by literally EVERYBODY on the Internet. You’re probably going to want to defend your favorite game. Especially if you’re in a community dedicated to people who play that game, you’ll probably have many other people jump in and help you defend it.

    I don’t know why people enjoying a game you never bought bothers you so much.

    For reference, I also tried it on Gamepass, but I didn’t make it through the tutorial because the game kept crashing. So, no love for it here, but why bother complaining about those who had a better time than us?
