Then one day I meet a man,
He came to me and said,
"Hard work good and hard work fine,
but first take care of head"

LARPers boast that their games are full of magic and adventure and intrigue and drama. They're not. They're full of ILLUSIONS of those things. I didn't know that 'til I was out. LARP cannot, CANNOT give you anything substantial. It cannot offer anything tangible or soul-sticking. It cannot add to you, it can only subtract. And usually what it's taking away is your connection to the world.

This is hilariously over dramatic. Like, if your mental state is so fragile that some nerds in capes can gently caress you up this much then something, anything, was going to get you. I guess at least if it was like model trains you could sell them to get some money back out of it.
