Do you feel sorry for people who take life seriously?

Life is a game, not a test, you either win or lose, not pass or fail


But i feel bad for those too logical people, they just  dont know what fun is, you may say fun is crunching numbers and staring at spreadsheets, but really, thats not fun, we all know that, DONT DENY IT

Deny your life and you will be given life in return. It is only the dead that can live.

Taken literally this is simply incorrect.

Taken figuratively it is praise for suicide, or at least self-destruction.

Just because something sounds clever, (and it does, it's a pretty sentence) does not mean there is some truth to it.

Sometimes you need to take life seriously, but it's also important to loosen up and enjoy life as well. I mean, YOLO and all that. >.<

A life that is always flippant can be just as empty as one that is always serious.

And there is nothing inherent about a serious life that it could not also be fun.

Yeah.

And OP, who ever said "staring at spreadsheets" and working in general was fun? It's just what you do if don't want to live with your parents your whole life.

If you take life seriously, you don't have to worry about skipping off a cliff. Or standing in the middle of the road to proove to your friend that you can be as stupid as they can. And I'd rather not talk to another person who has a message for me and won't get to the point because they like seeing me irritated.

So, yes. I suppose I feel sorry for those who take life seriously - the ones who don't don't have to put up with themselves. Wow! I changed my own mind, there!

Nope, it's their life that they be too serious and miserable about. I'll just sit back and joke about them :)

True, it their life why should I worry about them...But if its making them all miserable and stuff then why not try and give them a good pat on the back...Hey you never know what could happen!? Lol!!! Now or Never is what I say!! ^_^

I am a person who takes life so seriously that I decided to leave my friends for I saw them as a nuisance and bad influence. This sacrifice has granted me success in my craft. And people envies my achievements

But deep inside, I regret everything. My chest pains from the loneliness. And debates is my only solitude which further adds burden.

However, one of the most hurtful insults you can throw is to say is that you are sorry for us. We made good use of our life. We gave up ours to be useful in the society. Unlike some people who sits on their computer all day long just to ponder why the relationship between a man and a goat is illegal

i don't feel sorry for the people who take life seriously, in other ways i think they are doing the right thing.Because the more serious you are about something,the more likely you are to achieve it.In school you learn the lessons before the test,life is the test and you learn your lesson after.

I am an IB student, therefore for the next 1 and a bit years the IB has replaced my life. :(

If you don't take the IB seriously you go to IB hell. The IB is like a religion. Except it's real. You must offer essays and other work to the IB demon-deities or be punished with bad karma and cause-for-concern notices. You must obey the IB learner profile and complete your CAS hours. Waaaaah!

There is a time to be serious and there is a time to have fun.
