    I have been unemployed for nine months. I think I’m gradually becoming a NEET shutin. A part of me wants that.

    Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase

    Hakuna Matata! Ain’t no passing craze

    It means no worries for the rest of your days

    It’s our problem-free philosophy

      Trust me you don’t want that. Or if you do want that you really should not. It’s not as awesome of a lifestyle as it’s made out to be and can be very depressing.

      I have an online buddy I play games with who basically just sucks the govt teat and lives in an apartment alone. I don’t think it’s healthy to just scrape by and have no physical social life and physical intimacy. Dude always is complaining about not having enough money but then doesn’t try to get a job or otherwise increase his earnings sooooo…

      Go get any job at this point, even one you don’t really want just so you’re active and doing something! It will make you feel better. Plus it will help you while you keep looking for a job you really want, a 9 month (and growing) gap on your resume is brutal.
