The thing I like about the doomer memes and wojaks is that you can replace the specifics, and the feel is the same. His job, where he lives, The music he listens to, whether it's anime music, or video game music, it all shares the same thing. They're ways of escaping reality, in those waking moments, when you're fully conscious of whats around you, and you're gradually changing life. By fixating on the past. On the good ole days. He wants to escape reality. Not because he believes the world is all bad, or that there isn't any good out there for him to find. But that he will fail trying to find it. And only sink deeper into his hole. So to avoid failing. He stops playing the game. All the while hoping that he'll wake up, and have what he longs for, not happiness or a good job, a loving wife, or even success. But drive. The drive to be more than what he is. He's a unwilling protagonist. Who wishes desperately to be something because he chooses too. This is almost contradictory in a way. He wants to have the strength and passion to do something, searching for that passion, chasing it down. But doesn't want to, because he knows doing so, may lead to failure. He doubts himself, all the while knowing he can do it. This is what he ultimately wants to escape. Something he never can. His own conscience. Himself. His own judgment. Which is why he seeks to relive the past, Because thats the only thing that can satiate his mind. A time before he "grew up". But that doesn't mean we can't make it bros. We all can. We just gotta face our fears. Ourselves.

@@lazybonebone8723 Depending on what kind of forklift you drive and where, it pays pretty good and if you like hand-eye coordination tasks it's actually pretty fun and engaging. Keeps your mind busy and the time flies by. Worked in a warehouse in my early 20s and while driving a forklift was not my primary job, it was one of the tasks I enjoyed most and getting better at it was rewarding. I ended up going to school to become a technician, but sometimes I can't help but think that the guys making $25-35 an hour driving forklifts in an air conditioned warehouse loading trucks had the right idea. They certainly had less student debt.
@@Teesquared00 beacuse i see at my job pepole driving open forklifts outside cause they dont fit in the warehouse earning pretty medium to low salary and i thot beeng in a clean environment and air conditioning is a advantage.
scarily accurate. If you feel trapped in life like this, take inventory of your resources, figure out what you're working with. What sources of power you can tap into. Check your spending and form a balance sheet, figure out your income, assets and liabilities. Determine how much free time you have and how much money you need to survive. Often you might think that you have to work more hours a month to have more money, but it it is usually your lifestyle and spending. If its that you feel too tired after work it might be time to find a different job, fix your sleeping or improve your diet + exercise, perhaps all of the above. Once you have established the rules of your game and its constraints, you have taken the first step to getting yourself out of such a problem- by identifying the problem and understanding it. In life preparation is key. The more you prepare for things possibly going wrong in the future, the less setbacks you have, as you find yourself masterfully deflecting problems life throws at you. "luck is where preparation meets opportunity"- Seneca Gods speed
Being "prepared" requires a surreal level of discernment. Being able to see right fro. The start that you're co.pletely doomed and nothing good's ever gonna happen to you and that you need to fucking wake up and stop with the wishful thinking. I requires reconciling yourself as a loser before life shows you. It require ending all your hopes before life does. And this is something most people aren't able off. Especially young people, we're naturally hopeful even the most negative of us is somewhat hopeful.
Man this guy is making really good videos. Touching scary topics in life. My last boss destroyed me mentality while I worked there for 6 months. One day my boss had bullied me so much that when I thought he had left. I broke down in tears. He bullied me for maybe 5 months, everyhing I did was never good enough even my coworkers left but I stayed. He saw me and asked what was wrong. I told him how it was and he said nothing. I quit that day. To this day I dont work construction anymore. Having a boss, no having a inspirational leader is truly how you can enjoy your work
That is the thing they don't tell you about those "trade jobs" They pay decent, yes. They are constant and you always got work, yes. But they leave out the parts bout how they are soul sucking and dull. That you end up working long hours and watching the world pass you buy while you perform a long dull task. "But you work outdoors, its so beautiful!" yes, but you cant actually enjoy it. You are stuck moving dirt from one place to another for 12+ hours.
Yeah I love the trades and have nothing but good to say about them especially if you are just trying to take care of your family lives great now we used to have to settle the wildlands lmao 1st world problem are nothing

I always thought people who planned out their lives and stored their homework in appropriate folders were always some kind of crazy control freak. And now, over two decades later my homework jamming into backpack ass doesn’t even know how to schedule a week properly. Oh well, now I can live in the moment and associate my life with the doomer memes UA-cam keeps recommending me.
Every time I watch this video it reminds me of this quote from Fight Club: _"We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won’t. And we’re slowly learning that fact."_
19 year old here, working as a welder, bought an apartment, got a 25 year old volvo, guess life is fine but i still feel the doomer memes, were more into that kind of stuff when I was 16-17 but its starting to creep up on me again.. broke up with my gf of 4 months last sunday.. well life goes on
Did you take classes to be a welder? I want to be a welder too. Or did you just apply for a position and they accepted you and trained you I'm 20 years old haven't spent a dime of my cash still saving for the future I've worked a few places just so that i can better prepare my self for any future house disasters. (Well mainly like fix any plumbing, remodel a house, landscaping that type of work) I want to be a welder, mainly because i want to make custom piping for my Rx7. So i can have the cleanest welds lol.
@@Alex-vz2jz you can take classes to be a welder. That’s what I did. It’s also possible to take a low paying production line job because they’ll teach you on the job. However you only learn MIG welding. Classes at least you can be certified in everything and have more options. What counts as entry level also changes for you. Instead of staring at minimum wage, you could start around $15-20 and hour. I also recommend specializing in something like pipe or a specific material or process. I do aluminum TIG welding which is a bit harder and has fewer people, but more demand.
Guys, don't get stuck on being a welder forever. It'll literally destroy your health.. I've been talking to old welders and you can jus tell how much they regret they never switched to anything else. They are only in their late 50's with shot lungs, eyesight and hands shaking. Study an other profession, just in case at least..
Having just graduated from high school and now working a full-time job for some time now, I feel this feeling every so often. However, reading all these comments really gives me a bit of hope to push through to the next step in life. Thank and good luck to you all moving towards that spark in the night.
I just don't know how once you reach a certain age, you're able to maintain any drive in life. I guess if you're lucky to find something you're truly passionate about, but for the vast majority of people who don't? I really don't know what you do for the rest of my life. Once I turned 30 I felt like I lost passion and interest in virtually everything. I guess that's why people get married and have kids, it provides them with a sense of purpose, but that shit ain't for me lol.
It's good to see everybody in the comments listing all the reasons to be grateful for that life. If you relate to these, you need to understand that you are responsible for the direction in your life and at any point you have the right and capacity to change.
i wish i didn't have to find out this way that i'm a "doomer" or whatever. had no idea wtf this shit was or what a doomer was until i ventured down this shitposting rabbit-hole. fuck.
As someone who also works 2nd shift, this vid was too relatable I end work at 10, make myself a shitty microwave meal. No matter how hard I try to wake up at 7 or 8, I end up waking up at 10 or 11. Shit sucks

Ive been there, midshift makes your life miserable, got home at 00:30 then be up till 05:00, wake up at 13, have lunch and work again, all repeating until friday, thank god i have a 9 to 17 job now
Working in an office now, spending the time with my coworkers trying to amuse ourselves. It’s good pay, but it’s boring. And to think this is what life is and I could die at any moment. Deep down inside I know there’s others that also recognize that as a collective we have great power to change our society and need to involve ourselves with our own democracy, rather than outsourcing it to others.
I can relate to this, although the job title is different. Doomer is not complaining about anything. He is thankful about his car, job and overall condition, even though it may not seem so. Doomer wants to feel and do something different. He doesn't like the normal routine of waking up and already know how the day is going to go. That's why he's listening eurobeat while driving to feel something, buying a more exotic car to make driving more enjoyable, drink beer at the evening to feel something before going to bed and waking up into totally similar day than the day before. The problem is that at some point you don't know what to do and what motivates you. Changing routines is impossible, because there is not much else you could do and if there would be, the new thing would eventually be part of your routines in the future. Anons he's referring to are the people, that seem to be happy just to work and exist. He thinks anons do not have high dreams and are totally happy to live like they do now. Doomer wants to think that he's better than anons, while also knowing that he's becoming a part of the gray mass. And there is realistically nothing he could do about it.
there is actually, trust me. He needs a girlfriend, not a girl, a girlfriend. doomer will start to Trave and give 0 fuckxs, doomer happy trust the process
Depression isn’t a life choice. No one chooses being depressed. A real life mental disorder that exists according to medical professionals and the DSM-5. Do you think suicide and self harm is something people with a normal brain do?
idk why you guys think this guy has it made he spends all of his time working and misses being free like he was in highschool and it wouldnt be so bad if everyone didnt leave him and he had someone to relate too but he just lives alone and remembers the good old days when things had meaning.
clinging to memories is the most counter productive thing one can do, what's the problem ?? you lost all your high school friends and now have nobody to even go to the pub with ? this video is too exaggerated
I did not expect this video to be so relatable xD the construction job, the thoughts on the job, before after and during, on the way to and from work are all me sadly
Failure to prepare is preparing for failure. Living in the moment is a fun idea, but not realizing that it's unsustainable early enough is guaranteed failure.
Excavator operator is one of the highest paid jobs you can get, many people with master degrees would burn that back because there is no work, instead ex op there always is

And only sink deeper into his hole. So to avoid failing. He stops playing the game. All the while hoping that he'll wake up, and have what he longs for, not happiness or a good job, a loving wife, or even success. But drive. The drive to be more than what he is. He's a unwilling protagonist. Who wishes desperately to be something because he chooses too. This is almost contradictory in a way. He wants to have the strength and passion to do something, searching for that passion, chasing it down. But doesn't want to, because he knows doing so, may lead to failure. He doubts himself, all the while knowing he can do it. This is what he ultimately wants to escape. Something he never can. His own conscience. Himself. His own judgment. Which is why he seeks to relive the past, Because thats the only thing that can satiate his mind. A time before he "grew up". But that doesn't mean we can't make it bros. We all can. We just gotta face our fears. Ourselves.

I mean, it's not a bad job, I'm getting my forklift certification soon in hopes of escaping the unemployment hellhole.. At least it would be more interesting than being stuck in an office
how the hell you get stuck in a office and then wana get on the forklift, wasn't suppose to be the opposite?
@@lazybonebone8723 Why should it be the opposite? Offices are life-sucking
@@lazybonebone8723 Depending on what kind of forklift you drive and where, it pays pretty good and if you like hand-eye coordination tasks it's actually pretty fun and engaging. Keeps your mind busy and the time flies by. Worked in a warehouse in my early 20s and while driving a forklift was not my primary job, it was one of the tasks I enjoyed most and getting better at it was rewarding. I ended up going to school to become a technician, but sometimes I can't help but think that the guys making $25-35 an hour driving forklifts in an air conditioned warehouse loading trucks had the right idea. They certainly had less student debt.
@@Teesquared00 beacuse i see at my job pepole driving open forklifts outside cause they dont fit in the warehouse earning pretty medium to low salary and i thot beeng in a clean environment and air conditioning is a advantage.

>the mid-2000s microwave tone that any doomer has because there hasn't been a reason to replace it
scarily accurate.
If you feel trapped in life like this, take inventory of your resources, figure out what you're working with. What sources of power you can tap into. Check your spending and form a balance sheet, figure out your income, assets and liabilities. Determine how much free time you have and how much money you need to survive. Often you might think that you have to work more hours a month to have more money, but it it is usually your lifestyle and spending. If its that you feel too tired after work it might be time to find a different job, fix your sleeping or improve your diet + exercise, perhaps all of the above.
Once you have established the rules of your game and its constraints, you have taken the first step to getting yourself out of such a problem- by identifying the problem and understanding it.
In life preparation is key. The more you prepare for things possibly going wrong in the future, the less setbacks you have, as you find yourself masterfully deflecting problems life throws at you.
"luck is where preparation meets opportunity"- Seneca
Gods speed
Good shit
Fuck all that give me booze and hookers
Solid.
Being "prepared" requires a surreal level of discernment. Being able to see right fro. The start that you're co.pletely doomed and nothing good's ever gonna happen to you and that you need to fucking wake up and stop with the wishful thinking. I requires reconciling yourself as a loser before life shows you. It require ending all your hopes before life does. And this is something most people aren't able off. Especially young people, we're naturally hopeful even the most negative of us is somewhat hopeful.

One day my boss had bullied me so much that when I thought he had left. I broke down in tears. He bullied me for maybe 5 months, everyhing I did was never good enough even my coworkers left but I stayed. He saw me and asked what was wrong. I told him how it was and he said nothing.

And now, over two decades later my homework jamming into backpack ass doesn’t even know how to schedule a week properly.

19 year old here, working as a welder, bought an apartment, got a 25 year old volvo, guess life is fine but i still feel the doomer memes, were more into that kind of stuff when I was 16-17 but its starting to creep up on me again.. broke up with my gf of 4 months last sunday.. well life goes on
You bought an apartment at 19? Where do you live?
You got it good right now bro, be happy because your life could always be worse.
Did you take classes to be a welder? I want to be a welder too. Or did you just apply for a position and they accepted you and trained you
I'm 20 years old haven't spent a dime of my cash still saving for the future
I've worked a few places just so that i can better prepare my self for any future house disasters. (Well mainly like fix any plumbing, remodel a house, landscaping that type of work)
I want to be a welder, mainly because i want to make custom piping for my Rx7. So i can have the cleanest welds lol.
@@Alex-vz2jz you can take classes to be a welder. That’s what I did. It’s also possible to take a low paying production line job because they’ll teach you on the job. However you only learn MIG welding. Classes at least you can be certified in everything and have more options. What counts as entry level also changes for you. Instead of staring at minimum wage, you could start around $15-20 and hour. I also recommend specializing in something like pipe or a specific material or process. I do aluminum TIG welding which is a bit harder and has fewer people, but more demand.
Guys, don't get stuck on being a welder forever. It'll literally destroy your health.. I've been talking to old welders and you can jus tell how much they regret they never switched to anything else. They are only in their late 50's with shot lungs, eyesight and hands shaking. Study an other profession, just in case at least..
Having just graduated from high school and now working a full-time job for some time now, I feel this feeling every so often. However, reading all these comments really gives me a bit of hope to push through to the next step in life. Thank and good luck to you all moving towards that spark in the night.
Now this is epic
Bro woke up with the cigarette in his mouth 💀
At least he has a good job
Stopping by the gas station after work when you work this shift is such a beautiful feeling.
My friends a teacher and feels like doomer. I guess eventually everyone burns out and just goes through the motions in life till we die.
I just don't know how once you reach a certain age, you're able to maintain any drive in life. I guess if you're lucky to find something you're truly passionate about, but for the vast majority of people who don't? I really don't know what you do for the rest of my life. Once I turned 30 I felt like I lost passion and interest in virtually everything. I guess that's why people get married and have kids, it provides them with a sense of purpose, but that shit ain't for me lol.
It's good to see everybody in the comments listing all the reasons to be grateful for that life. If you relate to these, you need to understand that you are responsible for the direction in your life and at any point you have the right and capacity to change.

Working in an office now, spending the time with my coworkers trying to amuse ourselves. It’s good pay, but it’s boring. And to think this is what life is and I could die at any moment. Deep down inside I know there’s others that also recognize that as a collective we have great power to change our society and need to involve ourselves with our own democracy, rather than outsourcing it to others.
This was personal..
Instant sub i feel so personally attacked i love it lol
I see gas in the 2 dollar range and its already better than my life
I can relate to this, although the job title is different. Doomer is not complaining about anything. He is thankful about his car, job and overall condition, even though it may not seem so. Doomer wants to feel and do something different. He doesn't like the normal routine of waking up and already know how the day is going to go. That's why he's listening eurobeat while driving to feel something, buying a more exotic car to make driving more enjoyable, drink beer at the evening to feel something before going to bed and waking up into totally similar day than the day before. The problem is that at some point you don't know what to do and what motivates you. Changing routines is impossible, because there is not much else you could do and if there would be, the new thing would eventually be part of your routines in the future. Anons he's referring to are the people, that seem to be happy just to work and exist. He thinks anons do not have high dreams and are totally happy to live like they do now. Doomer wants to think that he's better than anons, while also knowing that he's becoming a part of the gray mass. And there is realistically nothing he could do about it.
there is actually, trust me. He needs a girlfriend, not a girl, a girlfriend. doomer will start to Trave and give 0 fuckxs, doomer happy

clinging to memories is the most counter productive thing one can do, what's the problem ?? you lost all your high school friends and now have nobody to even go to the pub with ? this video is too exaggerated
