I think, I'm just going to stop doing what people tell me.

You know, I think I'm just gonna stop doing what people tell me. Parents and authority figures included. I don't care about any sort of punishment or consequence, I just don't want to be told what to do anymore. In the end, I'll end up doing absolutely nothing, and that just sounds wonderful.

I won't go to school if I don't want to, I won't clean the house if I'm told....

How I end up doing nothing, is, since I've decided to express my own free will and not do anything people tell me to do, I'm pretty sure my parents will begin revoking my things, such as my Xbox and my computer. Until I no longer have anything, inevitably leaving me to do absolutely nothing. Which, as I said, sounds wonderful.

If I end up going to jail or something, I can just do nothing there.

Worst case scenario, I end up a hobo. Then I can do nothing outdoors, laying on the ground looking at the sky, waiting for sweet, blissful death.

Yeah, thats how things are gonna work from now on. At least with me.

This basic idea was inspired by the movie Office Space.

Hmmm... how old are you?

Sometimes doing the norm is for the best. There's a reason some things are requested of you.
But I get what you're saying: it's bothersome to obey all the time. Make your own goals and follow them, but don't completely ignore the input of those close to you.
Just take what they say with a grain of salt, might help.

I don't ignore input- if I feel like doing the requested task, I might do it, if it's not an inconvenience to me.

But you see, I'm an Atheist- I don't believe in any higher power, I don't think we go anywhere after death, I'm pretty sure this is the only life we get.

I want to live it the way I want, not how someone else thinks I should.

As for my age, I'm young. That's it.

Sounds like someone's feeling blue.
If this is the only life you get don't you want to live it to it's fullest?

The fullest might not be getting a 9-5 job, 2 weeks vacation a year and live in suburbia for the rest of your life, but that sure beats doing nothing, just bumming around.
I'm not telling you what you should to, but sometimes you might have to do things you don't like in order to make things easier or better for you in the the future.

I think my point is, I don't really care if I am miserable or not... I think, I'm just trying to achieve complete freedom. Freedom from rules, authority, freedom to do what I want, even if the options of things to do are limited. I want to see if, in this world of rules, it is possible to truely be free, without being dead.

You remind me of a young me when I was younger. I was a big nihilist and actually thought that everything in the world is meaningless and nothing I ever did would matter, crimes and sins included. What made me change is the realization of nothingness. If I were to do the things you say you will do, then I wouldn't do anything, no job, no responsibility, no worries. That sounds great but on the other side of the coin there would be no friends, no family, no love. A life without love or piety is a sad life since without it one has nothing. I tried what you are attempting and I found out that I was miserable, I was lonely and seeked the light in an allegorical sense. I don't mean to preach, but dude it sounds like you need a good kick in the ass so you can wake up and grow up. A lot of us wish we didn't have responsibilities but we do it anyway because the alternative would be living in a very deep hole with no one else except our own lonely heart. Since you're young you haven't experience the world much so you probably won't heed my words. Either way I hope you wake up soon, or at least find a different solution than what I suggested.

Hmm. I'll think about that.

First thing you should do to celebrate is to RAPE EVERYONE AROUND YOU and then slit their throats when you're done. or you can slit their throats then rape them. Whichever you prefer.

i think i love you

What a waste of a life. And an education, tuition, etc....

Just do what is right. If you think you are opposing them because they are doing something wrong then why not? But be rational in your way of thinking and actions. In short, you can do anything but be responsible in your actions.

He's probably an idiot

That sounds more like a horrible rant/cop-out to me. Maybe if you organized your case a little better, but as it stands it just comes off as someone whining about not getting their way all the time. Like the five-year-old who tries crying his/her head off to get the toy they want in a store, only to find that they didn't succeed and then really begin throwing a tantrum.

"Worst case scenario, I end up a hobo. Then I can do nothing outdoors, laying on the ground looking at the sky, waiting for sweet, blissful death."
-Sounds good when your under a roof and sitting behind that computer screen doesn't it?

Wake up and smell the coffee buddy, if everyone thinks like you do, there would be no future. Stop whining and look for something you can do to contribute to society.

OP, those thing you said are easier said than done. I seriously thinking about that as well, like me a few years ago. That's just emotion dude. Get a hobby and live with it, it's much better..

Taking that logic, you try raping someone just because you like it, then ??

So you just want to be free but you don't care if you're miserable? That sounds like a pretty crappy life buddy, if you want to be free then try using that freedom to be happy and enjoy life. If it really comes down to it hell just settle for being somewhat free, total freedom that gives ya a shit life is worse than somewhat free with a happy life don't it?

Everything you said was fine until I read this, then I just laughed. There is no such thing. Once you're a hobo, you're still bound by rules, authority, and liberty to act however you wish. Hobos can be denied entrance to stores if they're deemed so smelly that they repel customers, they can be arrested for lying down on public streets (an actual law in my city, a stupid law at that), they still require help from the community if they want to live.

You say you're fine with just dying or going to prison, how is that freedom? That's accepting the lack of freedom if anything else. It's known as being institutionalized in the prison industrial complex, so used to prison and unable to cope with society that you end up committing crimes simply to go back to prison. Being in prison, you're forced to follow a strict routine and being told what to do. Don't follow the rules and you'll be beaten, not only by the guards but by other prisoners. Since you supposedly don't care for authorities, the prisoners won't even worry about you reporting to the higher ups for help.

Now, on the subject of dying. How is that freedom? Liberty is the freedom to live. Certainly by dying you'd be released from the pressure of government and society, but you'd be leaving yourself to the fate of the unknown. Atheism is fine in that you believe there is no higher being, but the fact is that no human has ever given proof of what lies beyond. What if we simply go through a complex system of reincarnation, you'd be brought back to this shoddy world possibly worse of than you are now. There are infinite possible scenarios in the possible after-life. Even if there are no events after death, still how is that freedom? You would not be able to do what you want, you would be bound to the unmoving and unthinking state known as death. Slavery was bad in the sense that the people were forced to move as they were told, but to be unable to think is far scarier in my opinion.

There is no such thing as absolute freedom. The most freedom you can achieve is to be uber rich, and even then you're dependent on the amount of money you have. The sovereigns of the various countries are bound by the will of the people. Hobos are bound by the support of the government. Prisoners are mostly bound by the support of their fellow inmates. The average citizens are bound by their wages and society. Absolute freedom doesn't exist (unless you're a god).

Well, you had freedom in that. BUT. It's not limited in doing right or wrong.
It's your choice. It's your own way.

I see begging for change and living under a bridge in your future. i can say this with confidence because it is my past. i stopped listening to people, it got me fired from my job, kicked out of my home, hungry, and all alone.

just remember, the farther you fall, the farther you have to climb back up. i've seen people fall pretty far. some too far to climb back from. life in the gutter is not fun, but just hearing it isn't always enough. some people need to find out for themselves. i did.

good luck. if you make it out alive, you'll be a stronger person for it.
