Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

This is like the opening monologue to Trainspotting
On a side note, I always thought Trainspotting was a horror film. I was very surprised to learn tons of people view it as an anthem.
I always thought it was about railway enthusiasts.
Except the punchline isn't heroin, it's just living a fulfilling life.
You can chose two. Any two, but only two.
I wanted to walk 10,000 steps and hoover but I forgot to work and now I can't afford to live in an apartment...

I think we should get better at budgeting our work time.
It may sound daunting at first but when you want to work eight hours, first think : "can I afford this eight hours of work? Shouldn't I rather be playing Monster Hunter?" and take good habits from there.
Maybe in the beginning try working 5 or 6 hours. Don't rush it, but keep your determination.
You'll slowly begin to perceive more opportunities as you grow in focus : "Instead of working another hour for my boss, I'll write my own TTRPG setting or hit that solo queue".
It's hard at first but others made it. Why wouldn't you?
Why are people responding to your post like it's serious? It couldn't be more obvious satire if it had a blinking neon sign that said 'THIS IS SATIRE' next to it. Sometimes satire needs the '/s', but not when it is super obvious like this.

I commute to work on foot while meditating.
Buy food on the walk home, and cook it while I socialize with my hoover.
I eat in the shower with my clothes on to avoid laundry, and I get 8 hours of sleep at work.
That way I can squeeze 2 full time jobs into one day and don't need a car, so I can afford to pay rent.

Dermatologists have confirmed many, many times that a daily shower is unnecessary for healthy skin. Hair experts also don't recommend a daily shampoo for most people.
That said... it can be hard to tell when you stink (olfactory saturation / incrementalism)... so I don't actually have a shower schedule recommendation.

The joys of living alone... I can live like a raccoon at a trash dump without anyone to judge.
My self-expectations go waaaaaay up as soon as someone is planning to visit/stayover. Laundry once every 3 weeks vs. twice a week, vacuum once a week versus every other day, wash up once or twice a week (by hand) vs. 3 times a day, throw out trash and recycling as infrequently as twice monthly (I do not produce that much waste at home) vs. every day (because of getting takeout more often). I do shower daily, before anyone accuses me of being filthy around other people.

Now add to that
- dripping and picking up the kids from school
- dressing them up for school
- cooking dinner for them and coaching after them
- giving them a bath
- putting them to need and reading them a story
- ACTUALLY SPENDING TIME AND PLAY WITH THEM
How is that even possible? No wonder that people are having less kids
Also handling 2 hour meltdown because you put the wrong thing in their lunchbox.

As a parent of 2, I wish my daily routine was this simple!
