I have so many problems preventing me from doing basic things in life and I struggle every day to get better but for years I have been in a severely shitty situation and in two years time if my plans fail I'm just going to disregard reality completely and mentally desert my body, I'm just going to shutdown, and ignore the outside world and any people talking to me. I'm too chicken for straight up suicide but I don't want to be sane in a world where there is absolutely nothing for me because I am all around inferior dysfunctional being.

This was posted on le reddit.

Top most upvoted comment was about how that sign should be in every sketchy neighborhood.

this was my post:

That wouldn't help my problem of people stereotyping me for living there. Everytime I'm outside of the neighborhood, people openly say with a strait face that everyone in my neighborhood should be killed. I guess you are no different, Reddit. Stay Classy.

I go to school and work, never done drugs, and there are a few families that just fell on hard times living there.


Got downvoted into oblivion. And that was the last time I visited reddit.

I moved from a "rough" area to a nice area recently…Until now I had never encountered people casually saying that a whole city of people should be gassed, put in a zoo, nuked, etc.

They're usually just trying to be funny, but…feels bad man

You finally made it anon. You didn't get too much of the blunt end of the rough neighborhood because you stayed to yourself. But you survived what others say happens in the neighborhood, and you made it out. Well done.

put all your effort into learning a skill. Preferably something like computer programming or welding; something that not many people can do and is in high demand.

Move to a different town. Hustle your way into a middle-class lifestyle.

Then, move back to town with your new improved resume. Get a mid-paying job right away.

You will laugh at them, OP
You will laugh and they will try to laugh back
but they won't be able to
they will only be able to stare and gibber.
because you have become THE VERY BEST.

To all other Poorfags,
Move to North Dakota, preferably Fargo or Bismark.
The reason for so many jobs there is low population, the reason for that is because commiefornians think being in poverty is much better than having to put on a sweater.
But stay away from the Pipelines, those areas the cost of living is too much, stay in the Fargo region.

wtf OP that is not going to help. are you a grill or something?

I've mostly overcome hating being poor by hating rich people so much I don't even want money anymore. I'm not sure if that is healthy but it works for me.

Housing prices have skyrocketed in North Dakota. A quick search on Trulia or Zillow will attest to that.

that reminds me of a section of town where I live that everyone calls "wiggle town"

It's this back road that runs parallel to the shopping district, but it's far enough away that few regular people ever stumble across it unless they get lost coming off the highway. Everyone in wiggle town is inbred hicks and rednecks. there's children running around dirt yards full of broken beer bottles in barefeet, guys selling questionable produce out the tailgate of their rusty pickup truck, and the most popular store is "the wiggletown walmart", which is a liquor/convenience store and bottle redemption center.

 No.199

>>196
Wiggletown sounds enchanting

I live right by a place with no name, where a bunch of people are basically living in sheds. There is part of it/near it that I have named the "Trash Maze"…You walk into the woods a ways, following small foot worn trails, and you start seeing trash everywhere. Stuff like busted kids' toys, broken vacuum cleaners, the further you go in you start seeing evidence of small campfires, and things purposely strung up in the branches of trees. One tree has a bunch of coathangers all on one limb, an a mirror, and a bunch of cooking utensils, and a busted oven on the ground below it. You keep walking and you see CDs hung up in trees and there is a spot with an open suitcase, with clothes pouring out of it and strewn all over the place, like someone stole it and then ransacked it for fun. there's a half-busted umbrella perched on a little chair surrounded by batteries and broken CD players, all kinds of stuff, all separated out by little footpaths. every group of trees/bushes is its own little scene of artfully arranged garbage that you cant see from far away, you can only see it if you get into the bushes. basically it looks like a bunch of goblins tried to build a nonsensical neighborhood out of broken stuff they stole.

OP - insulting for being poor is just so wrong… Its a reflection on them - NOT YOU… remove these low life scum from your life as much as possible.

You golden, GOLDEN - keep on being… you!
You are worth over 9000 of them!

Maybe of use - get into some cheeper Crypto currency - i feel it will become a big thing in the future - not bit coin that boat has sailed… try Darkcoin - the anonimity will make it an attractive alternative to Bit coin, and its just starting to get established. There are others that have potential - mainly see what they bring to the party with their technology - (e.g. dark = anonimity, Feather coin is about fast instant payments on a robust buisnes to buisnes use)

These 2 have very promising attributes for crypto currency… worth a look before they sky rocket! - Will mension Panda coin too as its chinas goto crypto coin… so its goona be big too eventualy!

Fuck Reddit… they are all self sucking, crowd minds!

>to a nice area recently
might be a "nice" area pitty its filled with cunts.

yes kinda cool - but, dont bother… just elimnate them from your life… sure get skills, get flush if possible… but let them be dead to you! Don't let it be a part of your life.

>overcome hating being poor by hating rich people so much I don't even want money anymore
This, the longer I live (a fair while now!) the more I see money as the root of all evil (I don't do God BTW).

>the more I see money as the root of all evil (I don't do God BTW).


The love of money (not money itself) is the root of all evil, at least according to the Bible.

Money itself is just a tool. It's useful to have around. I'd rather not have to barter every time I need something someone else has.

Loving money is what turns people into assholes. Like the people who were shitty to OP.

Fuck them man.

I used to live in a rich area when I was a kid. Put up with a lot of shit. Bullying, backstabbing, scams, violence, all manner of bad shit and bad people.

Shit happened and I've been living in a ghetto for a few years. Thank god it's nothing like an American ghetto. People are nicer, more respectful, I barely got any shit from anyone, barely had any trouble with people. Sometimes the rough areas are better to live in.
