office space had some great eye opening lessons:
- you can say no to overtime
- some tasks are totally not important, and its insanely important to have a priority order, otherwise you go insane.

Welcome to tthe NHK made me try to be more social. I'm still pretty anxious but it's slowly getting y little better.
The Matrix made me realise my whole reality was a lie and now I’m pro-Patriarchy, pro-Authoritarian and pro-conformity just like the characters.
Exactly! Cypher is the only sensible person in that whole world. /s
All he wanted was a nice steak. What's wrong with that?
I think people don't realize you're making fun of manosphere and alt right creators co opting the terms from the movies like red pill and others.
I saw Bladerunner as a teenager and it affected me so much I'm now a grown-ass man living in a cyberpunk dystopia. Follow your dreams.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry
Sometimes I laugh because it keeps me from crying.
Sidenote: I am often told that I laugh too much.
I've got a hint for you, look at their username. It's sick as fuck.
I wish the d was capitalized but still awesome.
Office space started me thinking about early retirement plans.
Yep that movie is depressing, especially that traffic scene, I go through that every day. Even the changing lanes part, too relatable.
I used to as well. Glad I can commute by train now.
I couldn't even finish that movie and had to stop after about 30 min (not because it was bad, but just way too depressing lol)
I often eat my dinner while watching a movie.
This is not a movie I'd recommend for that.
Had the same thing happen to me with the movie Hereditary (although I later finished watching it, because of the praise it was getting). I thought "Yeah it's good, but why would people watch this, why would they do this to themselves?".
I never understood miseryporn and honestly MFW people are enjoying it:
Midsommar left me depressed for about a week, so I emotionally detached myself while watching Hereditary by playing on my phone lol. I totally skipped Beau is Afraid.
Oof, not the best movies to watch after another.
That was also a move I wanted to see, but after Hereditary I thought "nah, I'm good". Probably won't watch another Ari Aster film, ever.
That kind of sounds like a reason to go back and finish it
I honestly get where they were coming from. My "I couldn't finish it because it made me too sad" was oyasumi punpun
I only finished the second of 13 total volumes and I wasn't tearing up or anything, but I developed a sense of... dysphoric dread, I guess, from reading it
If Anon is anything like me, my advice for next steps would be to start learning about metabolic health.
