School, Antidepressants, and why I still play -blam!- games: A Panzer Post

Hello, the 3 people interested in what I have to say. (I am not sure that they are not past and future me.) Welcome to the next Panzer Post. Yeah, this time it has a title! Wack, right? Anyways, as my wonderfully concise title states, I will ramble on about School, Antidepressants (and the whirlwind that is withdrawal), and games like Rainbow 6, War Thunder, and my first "bad but I won't stop playing" game, Trove. I may also, due to my funny-looking pear-shaped brain, randomly tangent into random things. Honestly, I would love it if people cared enough to read all of the things I have to say (if I didn't want people to read it, I wouldn't post it), but I know most of the people on this forum have better things to do, so feel free to skip to my questions. Unless, of course, you don't even want to answer those. That'd be fine, I guess. It doesn't hurt at all. School. A student's main social outlet, stressor, and oppressor. The place where adults have a field day looking down on kids, and then get confused when the same kids reciprocate the respect they give us. (I am not coping, I am not coping). Most of you here are fortunate enough to be the few kids who become adults and cycle out of an oppressive teaching environment into a possible (but maybe, just maybe, not) oppressive work environment. "What do I know about work environments?" I hear you thinking. Nothing at all. I simply am parroting the nihilistic -blam!- I hear your (whoever you are) age group spout online. Is it correct? I don't know, I am an idiotic, impressionable kid. Moving on, so I don't dwell on my many ramblings and ravings against School (mainly the American, but it seems most cultures have many, many things wrong with theirs,) I'll briefly touch on the madness of forgetting to take my name-brand happy pills and suddenly being pissed at anything possible and 100% ready to commit crimes (in Minecraft) with a sword strapped to my hip, the same I am shaking at my younger siblings as I type this. As we neared the god-forsaken first day of school (to which I wore a 2-piece suit), I would often stay up later than I should've, drawing or mindlessly watching video essay #45 about some obscure philosopher. When I finally dragged myself from my screen, I would often forget to take my night-time meds, which include the titular name-brand happy pills. This led to the day before school being misery-filled and soon fury-fueled. In anger, I swung my sword about at the punch bag that my father has continually forgotten to put up. The whole point of a punching bag is that I stop punching my siblings, but they seem to think that I have gained enough self-control to not fight my siblings anymore. (I have, but it is continually wearing thinner.) Remember to take your meds. If they aren't helping, try telling your doctor, your parent, or whoever you need. Seriously guys, talking helps (helps me, at least, and it may help you, Reader 7.) Also, Rainbow 6 Siege, while produced by an annoying and uncaring company, is randomly still fun. Not alone, of course. Grab some friends, and try it, if you play/played in the past. The game's state annoys the piss out of me, but hey, the memes and fun -blam!- is still fun. Eh, I was gonna talk about War Thunder and Trove, but they are in a similar boat. Trove is still a rather satisfying game to play and loot, War Thunder is great for some solid tank/plane gameplay. Alright, alright, I'm done. I'm done! I'll stop assaulting your ears- eyes...? with my rambling. Mandated questionnaire portions: 1. If you are unlucky enough to be young(er) and still in school, who is (or was, I don't discriminate based on age unless I am doing a little trollin- Sorry, I'll stop) your least favorite teacher/peer. Feel free to whale on them all you want, insults are funny. 2. Do you have a game that you know isn't really that good, but you play anyways? Is it just me? 3. Did you actually read any of my ramblings? (Saying no only hurts my feelings a [i]little[/i] bit, don't worry/) 4. Uh, a favorite song, go!

  • 1.) We had a classic Disney Channel villain in our grade. There was no redemption arc by the way. It was this rich, popular kid. She was [b][i]terrible.[/i][/b] She emotionally abused and bullied a ton of kids in my grade including myself. I was really insecure at the time so it hurt a lot. Saw her a few years after she left. She hasn't changed. 2.) Human Fall Flat gets old for some people, but it's beautiful to me. I also play the EA Battlefront 2, which is EA. ('nuf said) 3.) Yes. You whacked a punching bag with a sword because you forgot to take your name brand happy pills. You also like Trove. You think it is satisfying even though it's crap. 4.) Southern Accents by Tom Petty, Wind Up by Jethro Tull, or Time by Pink Floyd. Can't decide.
