Hell, how about before that and during feudalism?
You say society is so run down and terrible, why not do something about it or at least.... you know... contribute?May God give us strength and courage in the time of our darkest hours.

You WERE very happy working... I actually agree with making a bunch of those tikis and selling them next to a beach entrance on the weekends or something. It would be fun and you'd probably make a few bucks. Even if you don't, darn, you had to suffer through sitting at the beach all day.

I dont need a lecture from you, bitch tits. I am very happy working.

Do you think I should have gone on a killing rampage instead of going to the mental hospital for some help?
You are very young and have no real life experiences. Move on.

Originally posted by Jester View Postlol, guys it is not about happiness. Im as happy as anyone. just frustrated at the fact that we went from an awesome society to what we are now. we used to hunt and fish and survive and not worry about jobs and taxes and all the other stuff that has turned us into little worker bees.
I mean, the feeling I get when I bring home dinner from a hunting or fishing trip is amazing! This is all we used to do! we hunted and fished and fucked and smoked out. why did we ever stop doing that?
dont get me wrong, i like science and modern medicine, and indoor plumbing but it seems like we also made our lives really complicated and are adding to it more and more every day.
