Are you sick of modern society?

Now I'm just not sure whether you simply want to "go against the grain" or start some new Kevin_123 tribe in the forest

I'm just saying you don't have to follow the template that you laid out in your first post. Yes you have to live by the laws but that doesn't mean you have to live by the rules. Few people push the boundaries of what they can actually do, they just stick it in the "too difficult" box. Go places, see the world, don't settle down for a while - you probably won't be rich but if that's what you want then you'll be happy. If you have your wits about you, and you're smart, you can do what y'like (within reason)

Modern society can suck but in a way you have it all laid out for you - blessed with high living standards, long life expectancy, efficient transport, efficient communication. It's just what you do with it.

Start a rebellion!!

Nah, I dont know to be honest.. it's one of those things where an individual can't do a lot about it, and I think there is enough people who doesn't want things to change for anything to happen...

If only there was an abandoned country somewhere..

It can't be just me.. this whole.. school -> college -> uni -> job -> marriage -> family -> death thing!

Buy an island?

Buy an island?

Yeah sure, I'll just use the £3,000,000 I have stashed in my bank account..

Everything is so damn unnecessary, we're all stuck in this controlled society believing we live in this great democratic world but it's all so ****. If you've seen fight club you'll understand what I mean..

Dont you people feel like you want it to change? I just hate it so much.. stupid big corporation wanting to make money, our food is full of colouring, preservants, fat and salt.. proccessed food is becoming stupidly cheap and fruit/veg is getting more expensive... dont you wish the world would just change and all people would just start living..

There is soo much depression and crap and we're just given pills to surpress it, diseases like cancer are increasing soo much, we're just creating problems and finding temporary solutions...

I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE WHO FEELS TIS WAY! WHY DONT WE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!!

Intellectual stimulation
Physical Stimulation
Spirituality (Religion is everywhere and i can follow what one I like) People follow religions that make them believe they should kill other people and crash planes into buildings.
Outlet for any violence (martial arts, boxing etc)
Safety (so many more people live for longer than ever did)
Security (I feel reasonably safe) There are still a lot of unsafe areas and there is no means of protecting yourself.. if a maniac comes in your house and you kill him, you are likely to go to prison.
Sex (all I have to do is find a partner) Finding a partner is easier said than done.
and kids (of which I can have as many as I want). Not if you live in China

Whats so bad about that?

Anyway, start living?, how so. Should we not have pills to suppress depression then, should we all cut our wrists and have mindless sex and lots of other crazy destructive things.

Start living, do you mean start fighting? Trust me, smashing your fist into someones head, seeing their eyeballs roll back and their neck relax and their head snap forwards as they hit the ground already unconscious is not fun. Nor is being beaten up, punches hurt and if you swallow lots of your own blood you feel sick. Again, not fun. Booze is depressing. Fags don't do much. Drugs are expensive. Controlled, controlled by what. It's just other humans at the top. A carefully organized group of 100 people could bring this government down within a month. Nothing stopping you killing the CEO of Citi Group. Hows that for power and control. You can control whether he lives or dies. The same goes for most humans you know.

What do you suggest one does, what specifically bothers you about this society. I'm all ears lol.

That everything is so intense, it is almost impossible to survive without a job, you can't just decide to build your own house and go hunt animals because all land is either private owned or government owned.. it doesn't seem like it at first but when you look and think deeply about it, there is this "template" to how our lives have to be like, you have to spend years learning about things that are completely pointless that dont really matter...

Then don't do it.
Don't do the whole "school -> college -> uni -> job -> marriage -> family -> death thing!" and live your life like you want to.

For future reference, this is where you lose your credibility.

+1

Why though.. can someone explain!

Ill be impressed if you manage to skip the last stage.
