Do you ever get the feeling that people are living by a guide, rather than natural instinct or desire?
You know, from college to partying, to careers to getting married, you just get the feeling, a lot of people doing it not because they truly want to, but because they really dont know what they want, and according to their handbook of life, its whats supposed to be done.
Grant it, theres a certain level of predictability to expect, but sometimes its a bit surreal. It does seem at times that a majority of our society is programmed, and the unwashed are few and far between. |

I see you're not one of the machines.
I could go on for hours, perhaps we can start an intelligent discussion thread sometime. I'd be more than happy to contribute my theories, conclusions, and explanations for this saturated society of conformist. |

Yes. I think that’s the reason for the divorce rate.
It’s like, “hmm, I’m almost 30, I better get married and pop out a few kids now”
People are morons. |

I just hate it, when people only think like... growing up, getting married, have sex, boring job, build a house, make some kids, and then death.
I mean. woooh life must be great :rolleyes:
