I haven't lost all my friends, but most of us barely hang anymore. 2/3 have kids, the other 1 is busy with "music production".
#8 you changed job BKA you stopped selling weed to your anime loving friends >.<
Another good reason would be they burned up in the atmosphere while entering Earth recklessly trying to take down the MK-II. (yeah talking to you here Kacricon)
number 5 for me. although i still retain a small circle of close friends.
Wait, the top one there isn't "You admitted your sexuality and said you're not attracted to women."
I mean, I'm sure plenty of people lose all their friends because they're gay or something. I lost them when I told them I was a mechasexual.
Well, In that case you wouldn't lose any friends, as they weren't friends in the first place, just acquaintances.
12. because you can't stand those bastards now...
Or they just can't stand you anymore instead.
most of my "real" friends are dead, hey -shit happens.
all due to natural causes, some of which were naturally un-natural,... like smoking, farting in an enclosed elevator packed to the corners with displeased co-workers, car accidents, other forms of cancer, doing stupid things like crashing into trees on skis or a light post while riding a skateboard - getting hit by a train in one case, while ridding a skateboard (it happens when the rail crossing is at the bottom of a really steep hill), going off a cliff on a snowboard on a black diamond course,.... drug OD's, ex-spouses having it in for them,... on the job occurences (fire fighter, cop, army+marine grunt),... Though only one that I know of actually suicided.
cheers guys and ladies
you should be more careful when practicing your marksmanship or at least take someone unrelated to you (spares you some trouble :))
11. Because you realized that money will never betray, hurt, talk shit, or leave you.... So you became good friends with MONEY!
Money WILL leave you.
In order to not lose your friends you must bury them close to you
but better use the neighbours garden
10.5: Turn a stupid fagot otaku
so true
my friend and I dont hang out as often anymore for the reason no 1 and 2
7, biggest reason and also 3 for (most of) them.
imokaywiththis~
wow... nothing about "you like booze and I prefer meth"????
"10. You came of age"
LOL, what?
I thought it worked the opposite way most of the time.
This is sad. Anime nerds need social outreach it seems. Why aren't there American "Neets" or are there?
*raises hand*
Bah. #7 here. Moving to a distant continent sucks, especially when there's nothing of note on said continent.
its a conspiracy
My best friends either moved away, went to different schools, or became complete douchebags.
11. Religious differences. They're Buddhist and you're a Haruhiist.
4. you had kids
no, that will get you more friends...mostly those who're pedophilic sex rapists
10. you came of age
senior citizens can have friends, too, just in the same retirement home
Who needs friends anyway!
shut it kira
12. your internet service is suspended
AHAHAHAHAHA nice one.....
;_; *crouching in the corner and cry*
LOL dude....
I agree
All you really need is one friend. And even that, that one friend doesn't even have to be a friend. As long as they pick up when you call your good to go.
It's probably the notion that you have a friend that healthy versus actually confirming that you have a friend.
IE. Saber came to my party last night. We know thats bullshit but at least this guy made it happen. in a sense.
Which means in the end he's calm and sane and doesn't go columbine on us.
Show me a loser ass hikkomori or NEET and I'll show you a guy who ain't causing any trouble.
3d. You prefer 2D.
11. You came
... all over them.
no all over their schoolbooks or uniforms
Where is the ‘Friends from school… WTF is that?’ option?
my friend is my friend till death.thats what we believe.lol.
I see it as "my friend's friend's friend's...is still my friend" at the first sight lol
OK, I admit the infinite loop is added by me (_ _)
Sound like pretty shallow friendships to me.
These days, most of them are. Sad but true...
The real reason #1: you've ran out of money to be swindled out of.
That's Japan for you; most cases I have been through use the term 'friend' loosely, and that doesn't work with me at all.
At least he's got chicken.
For the moment, til Saber eats it anyway..
dammit. leeroy jenkins
Lets hope his chicken won't leave him or he will need some charge from juuden-chan
He is shock.
When it works the other way around, nobody wins.
Course that works the other way around too. Hoe's before Bro's.
my friends are still the same friends from elementary school
Hommies over ho`s? Are you GAY?
It is said that your uni/college classmates will be your last ring of friends.
Because people don't really get along with people who don't have the same interest in study.
As for myself, all my former high school friends don't know me anymore.
You can also say hoes after bros
So friends before women - in which case, why bother with the women?(unless one is bisexual) "Bros before hos" = the battlecry of the emotionally stunted manchild masses.
>It is said that your uni/college classmates will be your last ring of friends.
well, sadly i lost my last ring of friends when i moved to a different city to study and failed to gain new ones at university.
Bro's before Hoe's
An otaku variation of Leroy Jenkins?
If you really need to ask...
LEEEEROY DESUUUUUU!
SAAAAAAAABEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!1111!!!
JEENKIIINNNNNSSS!!!!!1
"You've become an otaku + hikikomori + NEET"
You celebrate birthdays for your favorite anime character by making them cake and serving it to them in front of monitors, then post it on the web for all to see.
I didn't have friends...
Just Peers and Acquaintances...
HIPSTER DETECTED
"Friends" are people you can really trust.
Everyone else is an acquaintance or colleague.
Only a few should have privilege to that title
My father always told me that the only friend that can get you out of troble and could only have the tilt friend is the almighty dollar...
That it
I agree... very people deserve the title. I have more trust in my father and brothers taht I just can't place into someone I know so little. In fact, I have only what... two friends? Whoa... I must be quite the nitpicky bastard...
Friends help you move..... true friends help you move the bodies.
i have about 2 acquaintances and zero fiends. i aim for a hikki lifestyle since grade school, some poeple are just born losers.
I prefer my left, personally
Agreed ExtrovertedOtaku, I can't stand people who add others to a friends list, and they are automatically "friends".
Great come back.. made me lol soo hard
Like your right hand, for example. :B
Godammit. How many times have people told you that your avatar matches your comments?
and it matches again, lol
Several times...
Don't forget lolicon too.
No
You can form "pedobear" alliance
same here, and I'm ok whit this.
I'd go for "changed college and careers". Most of my pals are graduating from Degrees (if not working) while I'm still stuck in Diploma.. :<
But he still got Saber.
PS: count 2D friends too ? :)
How about 'I realized they were not my friends after all and now I can finally get some sleep without them.'
So true...
I find it interesting that the 2D characters i like, are WAY better then the friends i use to hang out with.
Because 2D characters don't have shortcomings, unless given some, and it's almost always something you could "deal" with.
12 You found out they were gay
Outch my ass. It's happened to me ...
Damn they are everywere...
1b. You've come to hate all your friends because you turned into a sociopath shut-in.
thats what I have become...enlighten me, brother. How to boost my confidence...
{You moved away} kinda obvious that you lose yore friends right?. but i still had them when i moved.
You moved your friends too? Man, you must be rich or something...
online friends are better
69. your friends were arrested for pedophilia.
69b. YOU were arrested for pedophilia.
What friends? Do you mean backstabbers? Liars? Thieves? I follow one rule...D.T.A. - Don't Trust Anyone. Friends don't steal money, your girlfriend, or your job. I help no one, I'm done helping people only to just get ***ked over. I was always a nice guy, not anymore. There is no such thing as "friends" only "acquaintances". Remember D.T.A.!
Seira-tan is that you?
then why should i trust you?
What are friends? and why do I need them anyways?
