I have seen in many US shows where they portray guys who are living with parents as losers, or there are jokes or memes about it, I never get it.

    So i started living back with my mom when i was in my late 20s, i lost a 70k job due to bullshit. Then i got back to working hoping to move out… and… covid hit… i was laid off after a year, and i just havent got back to working. I live with my mom who is disabled and in very bad health over conditions i dont know how to spell. Then i got a dui after my old boss died, i wasnt even driving just sitting in the car drunk by a lake. So now i cant drive for another couple years and am finding it hard to work some whete close that i can get a ride that also doesnt make me be around a shit ton of people who i might get sick from and then bring it back to my mother.

    No i didnt answer your question, but i tried to outline the why of someone living back with their parents.

          Because he was open and vulnerable and shared a very personal part of his life and immediately someone down voted him.

            Dont down vote him, he’s right in questioning me. I actually thought more about my response because of him.

                    Naw i fucked myself over. I soberly parked on a boat ramp. Then drank like 5 shots, or something but i consumed enough to get me drunk on police scales. When the park ranger said i had to leave i went back in the drivers seat and tried to drive off, but i couldnt because i i waited to long by the river and my back wheels starting turing and losing traction. So i asked the park ranger to call the cops to help and i was charged instead assisted

          I shouldnt i know, but thinking about all that really bothered me. And then i see not even 5 minutes later a downvote. Im drunk right now so it honestly bothered me. Im not sure what else to say.
