He’s right too lmao, if he’d picked up Fifa instead of LoL he’d be a totally different person.
I think if he had been a different person, he might have played FIFA (which you can play on PC just as easily!)
Could you cross play during the PS3 era though?
You never played FIFA 11 with your 4 friends as an online multiplayer experience, you played FIFA 11 vs your friend at his house
The real lesson is don’t be a nerdd

He’d have no money left.
If she’d got him nothing, like he deserved, he’d have gone outside, played some football and been banging cheerleaders by the age of 16.
I would be disappointed for different reasons if my crush hooked up with a random guy in a bathroom.
Anon tries to blame his mother for his inability to interact socially.
One’s opportunities to be socialized do require parents understanding the important of playing with one’s friends. Like, it does help to be one of a four-guy team who plays competitive sports. It helps a hell of a lot for bonding.
At the age of 11, one doesn’t control one’s own access to opportunity. OP’s mom did him dirty.
What I don’t get it. Just hit those old friends up if you want to do what they are, worst they can say is no
dude its a shitpost
I dont see that stated anywhere? Seems like a typical 4chan post to me
Yeah, a shitpost
If being unable to play FIFA is the single biggest problem in your life - your life has pretty much zero problems. It’s not the mom’s decision to buy a computer that screwed you over, bud - it’s your attitude about life in general. Nobody owes you anything, you want a better life go out and earn it.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard the words “nobody owes you anything” from somebody who was a good person. Or understood how a society works. Or cared about their impact on other people at all.
I would agree in the typical contexts of “no welfare for you, nobody owes you anything”, or “no food, education, or parental love for you kid, nobody owes you anything”.
But we’re not talking about basic rights or the social contact. We’re talking about a fucking PlayStation & PC. No child is owed a fucking PS.
The reason people say that is to make people feel better in the long term. They are considering the effect on feelings on a longer time scale than the seconds after the message is received.
Like, here’s a scenario:
- There are zombies outside
- People inside don’t realize
- I warn them about the zombies
- They go from feeling content to feeling afraid
- The fear leads them to pick up weapons
- They fight off the zombies, and nobody gets bitten
- There is far less grief and fear the next day than there otherwise would have been
The pattern is simple:
- Provide information
- Receiving the information is painful now
- Receiving the information allows avoidance of bigger pain later
That’s the pattern at work when people say “The world doesn’t owe you anything”. They’re trying to help people drop the manner of a child or guest or person being taken care of, and adopt the manner of an adult, or host, or person doing the taking care of.
The words mean “There is no rescue boat coming”. It’s designed to get people off their ass and working on a solution, instead of waiting for one from someone else.
His crush owes him a drunken hookup, or his mom owes him a Playstation or maybe both.
NO ONE IS ENTITLED TO SOMEONE ELSE’S BODY.
AGREED
Did this person really think you were being serious?
Until today, that is. Now you’ve heard those words from someone who is the best person on earth. So this is really a great day for you! Now clearly I did care about my impact on you, see? This has been a good day.
