Good grief, how many serious/joke posts are there going to be about the OP being a lazy slob? And almost everyone seems to view collecting comics as some kind of of extremely nerdy and unacceptable hobby.

So women can't have genuine, or at least passing, interest in comic books? I'll remember that next time I'm talking to a woman and instead I'll explain why women aren't good drivers. Why would you even bring this up, anyway? Should every man's hobbies and interest revolve around trying to pick up women, and ONLY trying to pick up women? Horrible Smutbeast posted:

Leopold N. Loeb posted:I think it's odd that you find misogyny in my post, but can't see it in the OP's demand that his mother continue to care for him into his adulthood, and do so without complaint. Or with his viewing porn(which objectifies women). I say this as a man raised by a single mother, who started willingly paying rent to her at 17 because my father never paid a dime of child support. Good grief, are you just selectively reading what the OP writes or what? -The OP is working at some kind of political internship that, while unpaid, will help him with other work opportunities in the future. While this probably isn't optimal since there's no payment, he's not at home playing video games and all day. -The OP does what he can by dipping into his savings to help pay for groceries and whatever around the house. It's not like he's not contributing anything to the household. In fact, the OP is going to stop buying comics now and put that money toward household groceries. -Do you honestly believe that every person that watches is a misogynist? I don't even understand why you brought this up, the OP just mentioned it as a past example of how his mom flipped her poo poo about inappropriate media in the house, and you paint it as if the OP is some sex-obsessed, porn-watching godless heathen. Your reaction to it is almost what I would expect from the OPs mother herself. What I bolded just makes you seem like you're bitter because you didn't have it as easy/didn't have as much help from your own parents. OP, its probably a good call that you're gonna stop getting comics to try to help your mom more, but as for the ones you already have, just find a safe way to store them, a lockbox, a friends house, under the floorboards in your room, whatever. As for moving out/money, just keep trying, the economy's rough on everyone right now. Get a LOT more proactive with your internship, try to stand out with your boss, get some letters of recommendation ready, whatever it takes.
