Fucking nowhere, get in , we're installing macromedia_flashMX_keygen.exe and learning ActionScript instead of JavaScript to derail our careers by about a decade.

child me taught myself a functional amount of actionscript in like 2008-9 and all i got for my trouble was a couple flash games and a massively decreased interest in game design as a career.

i also learned a bunch of batch and VBS, whole lotta fucken good those are doing me.

This is worth a lot though. It takes many people a few years of their life, a burnout and a lot of mental healthcare to get to this point.

Are you trying to tell me that there was a point I was allowed to quit?

God the actual fucking wasted youth. Just learn something slightly different and you'd make gazillionaires look like bums.
