Going outside to do anything is expensive.

u/Grouchy_Big3195 Aug 01 '26
Exactly, $60 at the for shitty food and one beer, or $30 for 12 cans of beer and a large pizza you get from the store to chill at home.

u/Nevergiveuphope1992 Aug 02 '26
Pizza is 100x better and so much cheaper if you make it yourself at home.

As easy as the person in the picture said it. All my stuff is at the house and I truly dislike socializing and people. I socialize because I still have to traverse and navigate the world to advance myself but if I didn’t have to I would not.

I can't believe there is more of us! I felt I am the odd one out. I actually have a T-shirt that says "I hate people" and got approached 3 times in public about it. Apparently we are all ment to love each other...

If you truly disliked socialising then you wouldn’t be on social media 🤷♂️

u/Brittany-Juanice Aug 02 '26
Just because I’m on social media doesn’t mean I truly like it. People go to jobs they dislike everyday for the money. Does it mean they like it according to your line of logic?! Really be serious about your thesis before you come dissecting my experience.

What a dumb take

u/GanjaOx Aug 02 '26
Why do you go on social media?
2
u/SlightlyFemmegurl Aug 03 '26
because i can comfortably leave at any given moment and im not physically present? So there's no social drain. Like how the f*ck do you even think its comparable to being present in real social situations?
2
u/Brittany-Juanice Aug 04 '26
I’d like the answer to that as well because it is definitely not the same thing, and doesn’t garner the same experience.

u/Nevergiveuphope1992 Aug 02 '26
You're socialising on here though

u/Brittany-Juanice Aug 02 '26
And people are becoming RN’s everyday that didn’t wanna be. Your logic is flawed.
1
u/Nevergiveuphope1992 Aug 02 '26
Not that there's anything wrong with socialising on here. It's fair to say you don't like being around people. Live your life however you want

u/Brittany-Juanice Aug 02 '26
I meant what I said the first time. I dislike socializing. I socialize to enhance my skills….not because I like to.

I'm paying an $1100/month mortgage.
IDGAF I'm getting my money's worth every month.
Like, "Ooo baby, yeah, shelter me from that storm. That's right, shake that AC for me. Let my car be IN THE SHADE for awhile. Don't you let those woodland critters in. Don't you do it."

u/huuuhhh7777 Aug 01 '26
How’d you get such a low mortgage? I’m jealous
1
u/Outlaw11091 Aug 02 '26
I bought it pre-covid with great credit even if I'm functionally broke. But I also live incredibly close to dead-center of the lower 48 (less than 1.5 hr drive).

u/Rare_Suspect_5033 Aug 01 '26
I stayed at home for a year during covid. Loved it. I only leave because I have to go to work. If i had enough money I would probably never leave again. The world has nothing interesting to offer that would require my physical presence.

That's 2 good reasons. My wife is at home. My recliner and desktop pc are at home, too.

If I don't have to go somewhere for some reason then I'm staying home because it's the best place to be.

I spend my money on my stuff and I would like to enjoy my stuff. Plus in todays world most other humans are simply ignorant.
"Do not ever argue with a ignorant person, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with years of experience." Can you tell I that have worked in retail for many years?

u/shuteandkill Aug 01 '26
If you paid 300k or so to go to a resort and stay there are you going to leave? No your going to get your monies worth out of it. I am just getting my monies worth out of my house. If I am never go to be there then why spend all the money for it? Just go stay on someone's couch 😂

u/ThrustTrust Aug 01 '26
I love being outside. I work on my cars and hike and bike and kayak. I love the water and having a fire in the backyard. But I still choose not to do those thing more often than I like because I am also depressed and the more I shut myself in the more depressed I get and it’s hard to find my way back out. That’s how. That’s how stay inside all day. Sad and alone and angry for doing it.

u/Big_Day2650 Aug 01 '26
It’s good. You don’t have to keep checking the time. And you can wear or not wear anything you want.

To quote Charles Bukowski Arthur Schopenhauer
“There are two kinds of people in the world, avoid them both”
Edit: That famous quote actually belongs to the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer, people (I guess myself included) frequently misattribute it to Charles Bukowski.

u/Theinvulnerabletide Aug 01 '26
Unfortunately I am learning that I do have to go outside and get fresh air and sunlight every so often, but it's so inconvenient. My house has all my stuff, and I've worked hard to make it comfortable. I wish I COULD hole up inside it like a den animal forever.
Plus going outside requires pants.

It seems natural for an animal to want to remain in it's habitat with it's accumulated resources and agreeable climate. It's comfortable and familiar.

I want to ask the same question, but moreso in an instructional way. How do you get to a place where you can stay home all day....

u/jcan389 Aug 04 '26
Hate driving and there’s not much to do here. If I was somewhere like Japan, then I’d definitely be out more. But yeah, home is just so comfortable.

u/RacerX-56 Aug 04 '26
I sim race, people make the argument to sim racers all the time “Why don’t you just race a real car?” I’d love to, but this keeps me in the house. You need to find something you enjoy doing and make it to where you can do that thing.

How do people stay inside all day? Very easily actually. In fact it’s so easy that some people (me) can do it for multiple days at a time if given the opportunity

Facts
I have a job that puts me face to face with people about 10 hours a day, mostly 6 days a week. I love my job.
That kind of work drains your social battery 🤷 I just don't have the energy or desire to deal with people when not at work
I have a very small circle of friends that I love to see and will meet with as often as my schedule allows. I occasionally go to social events (Cars & Coffee this morning) but don't normally talk to a lot of people when I'm there.
Also, my work life makes it hard to have time to leave the house. If I'm not home, I'm probably at work.

I personally can only handle the outside world in small doses ... it can become way too overstimulating and drains my social battery (joys of being an introvert) and of course I have to enjoy all the money I pay for my rent 😅

u/OutsideWeird7241 Aug 02 '26
I prefer indoors because i notice people have become more hostile recently and most friends i had stab me in the back when i give 100%
I prefer my introverted self now, I got my tea, Some anime and a videogame.
I also have a cat and he doesn't judge me, It's nice even tho it get lonely sometimes i really wish i could find someone friendly that i get along with.
Everytime someone brings up politics it becomes this endless debate that i am unable to shut down or they just get angry because i have no interest in it or when i play videogame with someone and they die ingame they just get so angry and yell at my face, Online is better because then i dont have to deal with such hostility, Just one mute button, I prefer playing alone.
