When people say "get a life", or "you have no life".... what exactly does that mean anyways?!

Kay Scarpetta · 08-29-2004, 10:23 PM

Good question.. when I say I have no life, I mean that I have absolutely no social life whatsoever.. I'm always at home, reading or watching TV, or just being bored.

Get out and...do things? People need to **** themselves. It's not possible for everyone, or hey...here's a thought...maybe not everyone's idea of a life is going out, ****ing and partying

I don't like parties. I don't drink. Bars suck because I don't smoke and the drunks are obnoxious. I'm not a social butterfly nor do I want to be. I'm content sitting here and talking to my friends. So if that means I have no life, then I never will. I'm happy.

You have a life if you think you're doing something useful.
If you think useful means making sure the entire internet community knows that last week's episode of your favorite show was the
WORST
EPISODE
EVER,
then you have a life.

dawsongirl · 08-29-2004, 10:29 PM

Oh, and just because you like sitting on yer arse and watching the "idiot box" does not mean you don't have a life. Pretty much everyone has a TV. Even people with "lives" have TVs.

That's a very broad term really. It can mean different things to different people I guess

I know alot of people who think just because I watch soap operas I have "no life"

Me I'm the type of person who doesn't like to spend the night out on the town. I guess I am a "homebody" I prefer quiet nights at home to partying, drinking, etc.

But I understand what they mean with Soap Operas.

it's pretty broad, I think it generally refers to a social life though
