To quote the article,
just do it—do it right now.
Ok fine. Wait I don't have a PS5 and now I don't have a job. Dang it.
You can come use mine and I'll use you as inspiration to quit.
If I did literally nothing else and limited myself to only the barest essentials, I could do that for the rest of my life.
Because you commit suicide after 2 weeks?
What are you waiting for?
Well, some like a little bit of comfort. Just sitting a cold house all day and drinking only water is not for everybody.
Well look at Mr Money Bags over here with access to clean water.
And a house!
A cold house at that! Where I am it's 30 degrees C in September and everything's on fire so you can't even open the windows. I'd love to be in a cold house right now.

Please don't tempt me, I am barely holding on.
I've made it 9 months since I quit.
Lotta chicken and rice but I thought I'd take my retirement before I die in the food wars
Bruh, I aim to the water wars. That's starting next year, I believe.
Hmm that's an interesting chicken or egg problem. Which will come first, the food wars or the water wars?

I've been jobless for around 2 years now because of depression and shit, finally got back into working and I hate myself for not starting up my world of warcraft career back up. I could be a wow king by now 🙃😂

i did this last winter; i firmly believe everyone has and needs slovenly unemployment periods to remind you of the perils of not working [but in equal measure, the bliss of not working and the amount of luxury you can just coast on]
I'm doing this right now. It's the first time in 10 years I haven't had someplace I needed to be 5 days a week. It's really changing my perspective on what I need out of a job and what I could be improving in my life if I weren't spending that time working.

If only I had a PS5...
The guy in the picture is not playing FIFA. If he was he'd be frowning and smashing his controller

Literally what I have been doing since last month. I made it a bit more challenging by going on a vacation for a week too.
