Whats So Good Bout Responsibility

[MikeMcMann]

But isnt all of your choices and freedoms tied to being responsible? Like most of the choices you made by your responsibilities.

Not necessarily.

 

[BillytheFish]

Well some people act or speak like they don't give a fuck, but in reality they give a lot of fucks about different things. It's just that we all have different priorities on what to give a fuck about.

There's a book called "The Subtle Art of not Giving a Fuck" or something like that. It was a good read.

I dont give a fuck what the book is

I think it's a trickle down effect, if you're responsible it pours over into other/all areas of your life. As a result it multiplies the benefits you receive for being responsible. Just as being irresponsible has a chain domino effect of things going bad.

Slackers don't age well.

I think they age the best. They have no stress and get to sleep in all day.

That’s the recipe for good skin and hair lol

 

[Otto!]

I own my choices, good or bad.

 

[JabToucher]

I know some very irresponsible people who are also lazy and do the bare minimum. If they have good social skills and can make people laugh they can still go far as people like them at least. Like they are a bit of a character so get invited/included in everything, even when they don't deserve it.

 

[Pugilistic]

I don't think this is what you're talking about but you should take ownership of your life and choices. It makes people happier and more free because they realize they can change their life rather than having shit just happen to them. People who are irresponsible complain about how things always happen to them rather than realizing they could act differently.

Reminds me of the sad fucks in coach who try to use the 1st class bathrooms when I'm flying.

responsibility sucks but its so much better to be responsible on your own terms.

for example, it is A LOT more fun running your own business than showing up to work for someone else.

Equally you could argue a lot of people take on responsibility that's expected of them by society without real consideration of course, especially in terms of consumerism.

I don't think that's the right question but I'll answer it. Being responsible builds your reputation as a solid dude. Your word is mostly good, you can be counted on and so forth. I don't want any unreliable, bum ass friends anymore. They are facking useless. They might talk to you, you might entertain them like a buffoon but you'll get no respect being a bum.

There's no question you want a solid rep. The question is how much responsibility do you want? I have a full time job, bills to pay and a few really good friends that can count on me. ATM that's enough but I may expand.

Others might want car payments, mortgage, four kids and etc.

I'd likely be a terrible employee these days, just not used to working to anyone elses orders or indeed interacting with people on unequal terms anymore.

 

[Renard]

I think at some point the mess of living an irresponsible life becomes more exhausting than keeping your shit in order. You can get away with it in your teens and early 20s, but it's bad news if you can't stop.

 

[Phlog]

Responsibilities are what you get for being a successful/good person.

 

[punkmother]

Do you feel good about being responsible? Are you responsible. Who is happier, the person who responsible or the illresposible?

I am responsible and its cool but sometime i hear people talk about not giving 2 fucks and I think dam I wish I could be more like that. Illresposible people seem to be way more happier than the people trying hard to get ahead.

What do yall think?

everybody gives 2 fucks about something. they could have differing priorities; there is no designation who is "right" or "better" in your scenario without context. if they couldn't give 2 fucks about their kids, they are likely unhappy, shitty people.

in general, people who don't shirk responsibility are likely to be happier because they are likely more accomplished and likely to take on rewarding challenges.

I agree. It's appears to me that the less responsibility people take, the less they try, the happier they are. They know someone else will always pick up their slack. Those people are dbags who make life harder for those who give a shit about putting effort into things.

 

[boingyman]

Questions like this is why we can't have nice things. Irresponsibility can have a cascade affect not only on your life, but others as well. Of course it's not that black and white and really depends on the context itself. There are aspects in life where responsibility should be a priority. For example family, career, money, health and self-care and wellbeing.

I disagree, the more goals you set and achieve, the more accomplishments you reach and the more targets hit the more satisfying your life will be

Funyuns
is the brand name of an onion-flavored corn snack introduced in the United States in 1969, and invented by Frito-Lay employee George Bigner.
Funyuns consist primarily of cornmeal, ring-shaped using an extrusion process, representing the shape and texture of fried onion rings. A salt
and onion mix gives them their flavor. They are a product of PepsiCo's Frito-Lay company.

They were named "Funyuns" by University of North Texas professor and copywriter Jim Albright, after it was discovered that the first choice of
name for the product, "OnYums", was a registered trademark of Rudolph Foods. Initial television advertising for the snack featured a variation
of Susan Christie's 1966 song, "I Love Onions".

In 2005, the "window cutout" showing the actual product inside the bag was replaced by a photograph of the product, falling in line with the
design of the rest of Frito-Lay's product line. The big-bag Funyuns was one of the last Frito-Lay brands to completely phase out the "window".
In Brazil, Funyuns are sold under the name "Cebolitos".[3] In popular culture, they were a favorite snack of Jesse Pinkman in the AMC
television series Breaking Bad.
