This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The parents were most likely thinking that the problem will resolve itself and it's just temporary. Speaking as a person that will write a similar greentext in 9 years.

Honestly? I know nothing about your situation. So maybe this is completely off. In that case, sorry for being cliche. But try burger flipping (or shelve packing, or...) at least once. In the worst case, you have a better reason to hate the system now, in the best case, you get some routine. Or, I don't know, help some people with stuff. Does not even matter what it is. But humans were not meant to do nothing.

I hope you find something you are interested in

My life would be much easier now and Id be able to buy whatever I wanted if I had applied myself earlier instead of just coasting and partying
