@lilytheamazingfaintingpony I am, thank you ^^ Are you?

@leonkfox @koen Actually, things are not too good on my end. I'll be thirty in six nonths and three days, so I took a long hard look at myself in the mirror. I do not like what I see in myself. At all. I'm a lazy slob who still lives at home. I occasionally lose my temper at work, I can't quit watching porn, and I'm a pot addict. I...I just never go all in at something...I want to be passionate, I want to do my best, but I never do more than the bare minimum. My attempts to correct always half-hearted, my personal economy is almost dead(I keep buying junk food and candy and magazines and little things that I want there and then, I never save up for something really valuable). The worst thing is, I'm not really motivated enough to change. I have dreams, but not the drive.

@lilytheamazingfaintingpony I have the same motivation problem & I'm only 16 :\ I feel for you man.

@fortecanter Don't know why, but that sort of helps. Found anything that helps, if only for a while?

@lilytheamazingfaintingpony i was like that for ages -.- i'm 15, after a good friends father lost his life, i clicked and thought that life's not worth wasting... nowdays i've gotten into trying like 100% with everything, and even joined the gym xD ...remember, life is never worth wasting on nothing, live your dreams to the fullest, even if you lack the willpower, surpass your state of mind and become better than that.

@koen But I don't know how. These moments of epiphany never last. It's not enough to say that I want to quit porn, quit weed, stop wasting my money, start doing what I need to do to achieve something.l. I want those things NOW, yes. But I don't want them when I am tempted. Take the money thing. I want to save up for a state of the art computer. But if I go by a bakery, then I never think "computer", I only think "donuts". I don't know how to keep in mind what I really want.

@lilytheamazingfaintingpony i do that too.. impulse buying is everyones weakness i'd say :3... i quit porn because every time i think of it slightly, i think of rainbow dash just shaming me, same with when i swear xD

@koen Will try that. Next time I want to do something stupid, I'll try to think of ponies voicing their disapproval of me.

@lilytheamazingfaintingpony The cake is a lie. The interwebs were built by people just like the one you described but only a few years older. At around 35, a man has grown to discover that labels are used to pin things down, and had you known then what you know now, nary a single virgin would remain. The internet was made for porn. After we nuked Japan, all of the people on each side of the water were in the same boat, so they began exporting things that we have decided to legitimately deny ourselves. We have /b/ and girls that look like they are less than 18, but it really doesn't matter, because it is only pictures and words and no sticks and stones. Many people that play with electronics all of the time are disproportionately out of shape for strenuous athleticism, but many are on the other end of the spectrum, too. The thing that we have in common is that instant access to information and to other real people really going through the same stuff.

@fnordly I'm not sure if I see the connection between my post and your answer, but I'll make an attempt. I don't want to quit any of those things for the sake of quitting things, but because they keep me from achieving other, grander labels that pin down things that are more awesome in the long term, but less satisfying here and now. I want to quit porn because it makes me less interested in having sex with my girlfriend. I want to quit weed because I've started enjoying it more than everything else. I want to save money so I can buy a good computer instead of the one I have now. And I want to be hard working so I can be proud of myself. But none of those are as satisfying in the short term as slacking off, getting high, murdocking and wasteful spending. So I always, always, ALWAYS end up doing that which ultimately keeps me back.

@lilytheamazingfaintingpony Quit applesing if you have a gf. Start again if you are alone. Using marijuana is similar. You get into a different mindset and can go so many more places if not incumbered with trying to stay in phase with another sentient creature. Pot costs money, but if you just have a smoke for breakfast, handle your business, retire with friends in the evening... Eating Twinkies and drinking pop or beer is not bad if it is only you and your internet and the sunshine, but health problems can begin to accrue if you try to run with the big dogs IRL. Porn is handled through posting favorites somewhere and eventually desensitizing yourself to them. There is nothing wrong with looking at pictures or watching commercial advertisements interspersed with clips of what passes for popular entertainment these days, but make sure to enjoy the sun and the moon, too.

@fnordly I see, has someone had a little to much to smoke? Or is this a case of not enough>?

@lilytheamazingfaintingpony All is great and getting better every minute. I love your bio. Do you have any stories involving Lily, the Amazing Fainting (like the amazing fainting goats and also not anything like a goat) Pony?
