View Full Version : POLL: Real life?
Taza Wed, 13th Nov '02, 2:36pm (My first poll)
I was wondering if there are "Real people" having "Real Life" here...´
"Real life" is (at least what other people say) to do something else than watch tv, use computers play rpgs, sleep or schoolwork.
Do you have much of this "Real life"?

Register Wed, 13th Nov '02, 2:45pm let see... i am together with a girl, having a few friends... thats better than two month ago... but i dont think that annying people that drink and have sex all the time when they are 14-16 years old is having a life...
See Ya
Sir Belisarius Wed, 13th Nov '02, 3:16pm Real Life...Now that's a noodle scratcher!
I think I have a pretty decent one! I'm not dating anyone seriously right now, but I do have plenty o' friends that I meet up with on the weekends. I have several different groups of people that I hang out with, so I'm usually never with the same group of people more than once a week - it keeps things fresh!
The most difficult thing I struggle with is work/life balance...Making sure my "real life" is fun! I don't know how it is elsewhere, but where I work there is an unseen pressure to try and work between 11-15 hours per DAY. Personally, I think that's ridiculous! I generally try to keep my workday to 8-10 hours per day...I think 40-50 hours a week is plenty! Any more and you barely have time to enjoy yourself.
Other than that, my real life is pretty full! I've completed my education, started my new career, I have a great family, good friends, and I get to travel occasionally...I have just about everything I could want...
Sniper Wed, 13th Nov '02, 4:07pm I'm in a band ... does that count? And I go to parties, conventions ... is that considered a 'real life'?
Z-Layrex Wed, 13th Nov '02, 5:18pm I don't really have much of a life. I go to school. I come home. I go on the net. I watch TV, then I play games, and go to bed...
Falstaff Wed, 13th Nov '02, 7:15pm I teach, so school IS my life.
Does that count???
Register Wed, 13th Nov '02, 8:38pm 1. a techer on sp... you are scaring me... two... IMHO a life isnt like this... spend all day smoking and bragging how much beer you drank last night... then going to a party on the evening where you get drunk, f*cking with anyone you meet, and then brag with it the next day in school...
See Ya
Fallen Paladin Wed, 13th Nov '02, 10:14pm Real life?
I don't have a life... :rolleyes: :D :p
Falstaff Wed, 13th Nov '02, 10:30pm AssWooper, why is it so scary that a teacher is on SP? All of us need good, visceral forum chat.
Turandil Wed, 13th Nov '02, 10:42pm I totaly ignore that ideotic term reallife.
Why should anyone decide wether my life is real or not?
Yerril Wed, 13th Nov '02, 11:55pm Put it this way...
Two women jumped on me at break today and tried to undress me. :eek:
Interpret that as you see fit...
Blackthorne TA Wed, 13th Nov '02, 11:58pm The only thing that comes to mind is your clothes were on fire, or you spilled acid or some other noxious chemical on yourself... ;)
The Irreligious Paladin Thu, 14th Nov '02, 1:18am By cutting out tv and this schoolwork and most sleeping (which can be done at school ;) ) i'm able to spend above average time on the computer and playing rpg's while beind able to go out and smoke with my friends.
My real life is good.
@Turandil- Anyone with a real life can spell idiotic. :rolleyes:

Atreides Thu, 14th Nov '02, 1:57am Define "real life" that's a bit vague and too general a statement.
I do other things other than sit at the computer and game (don't watch much TV (unless it's DVDs that I have (most of what's on TV is crap anyway...)) Anyway, when I'm not at the computer or dealing with college, I'm involved heavily with the Civil Air Patrol atempting to make the lives of my cadets easier. A year ago after the terrorist attack in New York the Civil Air Patrol has been put on full alert and our responsibilities have increased a great deal. So, as a radio operator in the organization I have more on my plate. I guess though that it's not a bad thing because I enjoy that sort of thing (probably makes me a strange individual but hey.)
Aikanaro Thu, 14th Nov '02, 2:28am hmm, isn't all life real. Even if something is fake isn't it still real? Oh crap, I just confused myself, bugger.
Blog Thu, 14th Nov '02, 4:34am No life here either. In fact, I hardly get enough time to play RPG's anymore. So no real life and no simulated life either. :(
Big B Thu, 14th Nov '02, 6:45am Real Life? RL? What are you kidding me? :p Real life lacks creativity. I have to employ and massage my imagination just to make real life bearable.
"Bear"-able.
:hahaerr:
Falstaff Thu, 14th Nov '02, 8:40am Hmm, reading some of the metaphysical posts here, I cannot help but think of "The Matrix."
What is REAL???
Kerric Thu, 14th Nov '02, 8:42am Real Life?????
Are u telling me that this isnt real life?????
Hmmm I better start getting out more often :D

Taza Thu, 14th Nov '02, 10:02am This poll's definition for "Real life" is what you do not have to do (school, sometimes working), you are not IC (In char), not sleeping and not "escaping reality".
So wake up, go to school/work, go to home, start playing computer/use sp forums/watch tv/play any videogames, go to sleep, wake up... is not considered as "Real life"
(i know, it is real life, but that is what is meaned with "Real life")
BTW if scool is your life... i dunno if it is real life in any meaning...

Turandil Thu, 14th Nov '02, 11:51am beind
@Turandil- Anyone with a real life can spell idiotic. Well, then mr complain, what does beind mean?
Do you see my point? Everyone can make a mistake, and theres is even alot of people that can't speak english at all. Complain about something that mathers instead.
Septic Yogurt Fri, 15th Nov '02, 2:54pm i've got friends and do stuff, but it doesnt mean i have a life, i dont want one of those, ever, they sound hard to cope with and lots of hassle.
Saruman Fri, 15th Nov '02, 3:11pm RL? Sure, if smoking weed, skateboarding and drinking beer counts;)
Pac man Sat, 16th Nov '02, 3:10am Hm... not sure about skateboarding, but the rest is real life alright.
SC Sat, 16th Nov '02, 4:49am I have a life, you sad, moronic people. (just kidding about the "sad, moronic people thing"!)
Damn proud of it too...
Taza Mon, 18th Nov '02, 12:29pm People with real life seem to be falling...
DragonRider SkyWard Mon, 18th Nov '02, 12:51pm You know real life is great and all but I really only care to live inside my head, I'm not kidding eather. I have a few friends but mostly I just like to imagain and so to me real life is not real life at all. :roll: :rolling: :spin:
Eilonwy Mon, 18th Nov '02, 2:04pm Nah..
I am not so sure that I have something that can be calld a real life...
I wake up, chain myself in my bed, get dragged to school, tries to hang myself in the ropes in PE, go home by bus, eats and takes loads of medecines, do my homeworx, eat, play putergames, watch Simpsons, eat, go on the Internet and eats candy, sleep.
Spends half the night thinking about life and trying to find something that matters in life.
Tada..
of course I know how to speak. I can say like..
lo, mornin, uh...no, nah, yeah, sure, f'ck off and Dont talk to me I am sleeping...
:)
Nobleman Mon, 18th Nov '02, 4:45pm Ha Big B! :)
Just grin and bear with it.
Anyone lives to their best anyway right?, anything else would be skizofrenically weird, aye. Skizofrenically weird. I am not a skizo. I am not a skizo. Hehe :1eye: hehe :1eye:
****
PS; Eilonwy how can you be sleeping at two pm monday afternoon? Anyway nice to hear that you are a quite normal teenager. ;)
