    Yknow, I see two sides of that coin :

    • the one that person thinks about, pursuing a goal that you actually shouldn’t have pursued (and that’s painful)

    But the one I immediately thought as I grew up in public middle school where so many children where doing nothing but fucking around

    • spending your young years doing jackshit and fucking around despite everyone telling you you should be more serious or at least stop annoying the others, then complaining the rest of their life that society is unfair.

    Yeah I’m resentful.

      Then there’s me, overachieving and doing both of these things. Pursued a career I ended up hating (high school teacher) AND knocked up my girlfriend of 3 weeks at 20 years old.

      Worked out though! One step at a time.
