I grew up with my fairly Red Pill father telling me constantly that life wasn't a game. I didn't know what the he'll he was talking about. Tiny me thought he was being ridiculous. I internalized the idea unknowingly and became a massive prick. My dad is also a massive prick, but he seems to get what he wants year after year.

How much of the, "life isn't a game speech" is true based on your life experience?
