Sounds like you live in rural Scandinavia or something bruv haha. So tell me more about some goals you have in life. You said you work at a petrol station, do you feel like you could be doing something more? Maybe you want to travel the world or start a family if you haven't started one already. Maybe it's to make an impact on your community. What's a milestone you want to check off your list?

I don't have a globe to look at but Scandinavia might be as opposite as it could possibly get.

I have almost no goals or ambitions. I want enough money to be co.fortabke and then just wait for it to be over. Not interested in a family, hate kids in general because I can't really deal well with people I can't ommunicate with and kids have that issue for many years in a row.

I work at a petrol station because minimum wage + casual loading fee means I don't need to work a whole lot to get enough money. My expenses with the new car are like 22k a year so if I can avoid a ton of work by keeping expenses low, I'm gonna avoid a ton of work haha.

Very interesting indeed. So what keeps you motivated if you have no goals in life?

[–] RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Absolutely nothing. I'm here, one day I won't be. I just do what I can to not be particularly uncomfortable andeave it at that.

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This is quite something. I don't think I've ever interacted with someone who basically lives for the day like you. Do you have any worries? Although I'm guessing your answer might be: "being uncomfortable" haha

[–] RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Living for the day makes it sound I'm interested in the day, whereas I merely let life happen to me. The majority of my worries are just bullshit anxiety issues that will never actually happen.

It would take a hurceleun amount of effort to change my life in any meaningful way, or someone giving me 7 figures for fun which obviously will never happen, so I just do the bare minimum and will likely continue doing that til I die

Alright. It was very interesting conversing with you, but i must now attempt to guess your age. Due to the anomalous nature of your personality, it was hard to make any inferences using any of the methods i know of, so i can only make an educated guess here, and say that you're 32 years old

[–] RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Close, 28.

Anomalous is an excellent way of saying weird lmao.

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah, definitely a weird life script for someone 28 years old lol. But i guess what matters most is that you're comfortable. In your particular scenario especially haha.

Thanks for participating:D
