Hermits, mount up. Tell us about the unpleasant events that turn you away from society. Tell us about the asshats that ruin your evenings out. Tell us about the great moments at home. Let it all out.

My home has: my bed, my boyfriend, FOOD, backgammon, Scrabble, a Playstation, AIM, decks, two duvets, all my CDs and all my books. And no students. Why *wouldn't* I hate the outside world?

Once I passed the age of 24 I started staying in more often. I was never big on the bar scene anyways. Plus the bars around here and the patrons of said bars are all giant asshats. Baseball caps on backwards, chest sticking out, muscle shirt, gold chain wearing shitheads. Everyone is always looking to fight for some stupid reason or another.
Im 29 now and have been to a bar twice in 6 months. Plus, i get tired around 10pm now and thats it. And the fact the drinking for two days in a row now does not happen ever anymore. One night of boozing and two days of recovery.
At home I have a wife, a giant tv and dvd player with surround sound, an extensive DVD and CD collection, playstation 2, new pc and can buy a 12 pack of beer for the cost of two drinks.

Normally, home is GREAT for me, but right now it's just lonely. We painted the walls back to white since we're moving out, so it's blah. Plus, I'm packing up everything, so there's not much left to play with 'cept the good ol' kitties! I want my boyfriend back.

Perhaps you need to embrace the bullshit to 'win friends and influence people.' That's me fucked, then.

Out: assclowns, the aloof, elitism, cold winds, heartbreakers, car wrecks, police, stubborn ignorance, "patriotism", coked-up shitfaces, even colder winds, hydroplaning, hate, fear, bullshit
I'm sorry, I'm in a shitty mood today.

Like Lawrence, I find it all a mental strain, even being perky/chatty around my own best friends for gods sake. I end up getting drunk to cover my strain/shyness and regret it hatefully later.
I love having people over, but they're all starting to get the shits with me cos I never go to theirs. Its always "come back to mine everyone" and unless I bribe people with roast lamb dinners and booz, no one does. But I like cooking roast lamb. And any time any of you hermits are down Melbourne way, come drop by mine for roast lamb, some cones and like, Donnie Darko on the DVD. We can all sit in our own hermitage =)

Stence, the breezes are the only things down here that are free. If you need to eat, that will cost you. Need clothes? Ch-ching, etc. Need to drive to your job (if you've got one)? Petrol is damn high.
