How much time do you spend at home?

IrishLad90

Since I became unemployed I have noticed a lack of reasons too leave my home and a seriously chronic addiction to the internet.
HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU SPEND IN YOUR ROOM?


my room has become a mini sanctuary to all things irishlad
xbox, laptop, beer cans, food wrappers, more deodrants than i will ever need
and a collection of Guinness world record books i never got rid of.

Menas

We had a thread on this a few months ago....some of the answers in there were shocking...people who had not left the room for weeks.
I go stir crazy after a day.

Get some exercise, or perhaps go look for a job.

Is your own house not home?

I can't see why you'd need any deodorant if all you do is sit on your own in your room?

Leaving the house is bad for you.

You could be murdered.

Ah so your parents house is home and your own place is something else?

Other way around, i read somewhere that he is left handed and likes to masturbate.

I'm on the dole too and don't leave the house much. I don't need to. I have plenty of stuff to do here. Lots of people tell me I should leave the house more but what the hell am I meant to do? Walk around town? Boooo to that idea.

davlacey

ah sure with the internet theres no need to leave the house apart from once a month to sign on.

In Japan (where else..) they have a word for exactly that. I don't think OP has gotten to that stage quite yet, but for some the outside world is a source of social anxiety.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black though.

Educate yourself in quiz knowledge. Sporcle.com helped me memorise all the US states, countries of the world and top Premier league goalscorers.

I also learnt to play guitar, piano and harmonica to a basic degree.

Learning a new language is next on my agenda although it sounds quite hard.

+1 Sporcle. Sort of things that would only ever be useful in a pub quiz. Fun though.

Kahn Academy or Coursera, I love my house, it's filled with all my favourite things (except for the hoover and mop and bucket, **** them) and nobody else is allowed to touch them, everything is where I left it, nobody is there to talk to me it's magical.

I leave to do my course, run errands, see friends etc. but I spend far more time at home than I probably should, quite frankly I could not care less.

I find you have to get out and see the world occasionally. So I go out to the shed and read an atlas.

These days my house is either for cooking and eating in - or sleeping in - or shagging in.

The rest of the time I am out working - gardening - running - cycling - at one of my classes/hobbies - visiting friends - hunting/fishing - or at the shops.
