Based Brittany and Kevin and Daria's parents.
Jane having a husband might be the most shocking thing in there.
At least it's realistic
>YOU'RE STANDING ON MY NECK!
>2017
I always assumed the end credits of the last episodes worked as an epilogue to the series, Quinn becomes a workaholic woman like her mom, Mr DeMartino finds a less stressing job as a mailman and Daria and Jane become host in a talk show.
Is that really surprising? Daria was destined to grow up to be like her middle aged single aunt
I'm not sure her aunt didn't look as tired and miserable as OPs pic.
Honest question, why are people so afraid to live alone past a certain age?
Also why are people so fearful of others that chose this life. Or are convinced these people must be lying about their happiness.
that or with another woman
>not going full tina fey and giving her this as a husband
>Honest question, why are people so afraid to live alone past a certain age?
It means you're a loser and never accomplished anything in life.
Because it means you've failed.
>It means you're a loser and never accomplished anything in life.
How does this make someone a loser? You aren't thinking through your ideas. Explain
Vestigial awareness that people should be living for something more than themselves.
I don't think I could live with ANY woman and get away with some of the kids ive done, drunk driving, buying stupid shit like cabins in western states, disappearing to foreign countries for months at a time, reusing clothes and socks till they fall apart and other things. Find me a little girl that is fine with all that and ill consider it.
Isn't this the same set where Jane looked like she got hit by a car and then healed herself with bootleg meth?
Humans are social, pair-bonding animals who prefer to live in medium sized communities of between one and three hundred individuals with relatively small family units of two parents and at least one child with extended families of relatives and elders for support.
If you deviate significantly from this average state of affairs by choice to live alone with no significant other and no offspring, a plurality of people will probably wonder what is wrong with you, because that's a good bit outside the human norm.
No amount of faux normalization through media will change that. Living alone and isolated socially from other people and refusing to reproduce or commit to a relationship isn't healthy for the vast majority of human beings.
Yet you fail to understand others personal choices? Again you fail to make a real point.

Because you might choke alone
>Explain
Have sex!
so you fail to prove a point
Honestly I see myself loving alone in about a decade or so and I'm not afraid of that, I've yet to meet anybody worthwhile relationship wise and social gatherings are draining to me.
>Brittney and Kevin having a happier more fulfilling life than Daria seems like a weird knife twist.
does that really sound surprising
I mean, Daria was kinda an asshole, people would probably view her in a more negative light if she wasn't the protagonist.
Imagine being a slave to your internal programming of wanting to constantly mate & reproduce, sad!
That's kinda what I'm getting at here. If it's not for you what's the point in forcing it? You won't magically end up happy.
Daria was so far up her own asshole, she actually thought she was an outcast even though everyone at her school was super nice to her.
Well first, it seems you yourself can’t be satisfied without validation and knowledge from others. What if there was no Zig Forums you could talk to people on? People get lonely, people doubt themselves and some need company more than others. If all your life all you’ve known is living alone in the woods, you’ll fare much better than most. But even that guy sits alone at night wishing there was someone to hold or be near, if he’s not too distracted with daily tasks. It’s one thing to dismiss a life without isolation when you’re still fairly young, but the older you get the harder it is to find friends and partners. That’s where the regret and loneliness really sets in. Even if you do find someone it won’t be the same. Typically when you partner with someone, you start to mirror them and that deepens your bond. When you’re much older, everyone’s much more set in their ways. Thus, you don’t get that special kind of bond.
Me personally I don’t think there’s any “right” way to live. But i think it’s important not to ignore what might trouble you in the future.
Brittany was mostly a decent person and was generally nice to other people, and was also smarter then she looked.
Daria pushed away fucking everyone except Jane, and arguably fucked up Jane's life by being clingy and keeping Jane from doing other stuff on 2 or 3 occasions.
Sure she's smart, but that's only like a 1/4 of what you need to be successful.
You need fucking connections, career wise the stronger the better, but fucking ANYONE aside from the artist aging at the speed of sound(seriously future Jane aged like milk)
Jodie probably has her shit together and is going places, glad to see where she ends up.
I mean..........it works for every other animal pretty well.
Also Genghis Khan made it work
The people that post regularly on Zig Forums are mostly such loners that didn't make it in the outside social world. That should answer your questions well enough.
>tfw Kevin won and is living the dream
I personally can't be around people too long without getting annoyed and have to leave. I like talking online because no physical interaction necessary.
I deleted my post because in my skimming I missed that the cocreator also worked on that video. So whoops, whatever.
Honestly, yeah. I figured they would be burn outs with high school being their glory days, never to come again. They were both too stupid to succeed in anything really. Despite stereotypes, most TV weather people really are college educated with degrees in meteorology. I didn't expect them to be broken miserable wrecks, but not this.
I remember a few characters pointing out to her she was about as full of it as anybody else, she just thought she was better. I could 100% be misremembering that, I admit. It seemed like she should loosen up a bit as she got older.
I think there is a certain sadness to doing almost exactly what you did in high school 22 years later. If the only difference in this she was married or in a relationship with somebody, whatever, it would be fine. But she essentially has 1.5 friends and a cat, and makes fun of society. And that's it. Man that's pitiful.
>not being willing to learn not to be a drunken slob
>expecting love
To go places in life, you need skills, connections, kindness, and luck.
Brittany has kindess and luck(and some skill)
Jodie has skills and connections.
Kevin has luck(alot) and arguably connections.
Daria essentially just has her brainpower. She pushed away everyone who was ever kind to her, and her one friend she constantly got controlling over.
She cut ties with her mom(her only solid connection) and her luck dried up in Season 3, so TL;DR her odds ain't good
just enjoy the booze and keep to yourself I always say
I remember one character was secretly actually much smarter than she looked and was actually trying to get into good colleges, though wasn't it one of the popular/hot girls?
And not to repeat myself, but in my memories Daria had learned she was a bit full of it too. I figured that was some character growth so she would be just a little 'better' come college and the future.
Same.
Doesn't feel any better knowing Zig Forums, of all places, is where you belong to, though.
This is why you gotta get young girls and groom them while they are young. Then take them with you.
After this a pitch was coming around to have a Live Action Spin Off around the black side characters.
Wonder if that's back on the burner.
>The people that post regularly on Zig Forums are mostly such loners that didn't make it in the outside social world.
I wish. There are way too many normalfags with gfs on here now.
Also, maybe this is because I'm a paranoid fucker with abandonment issues who's been screwed over by several disturbed and evil individuals I thought of as my friends, but personally, the way Daria treated Jane on several occasions fucking pissed me off.
There's a solid three seperate canon occasions where Daria gets clingy as fuck and gets upset when Jane tries to spread her wings.
Jane is legit. She's a realist, and she actually got a fucking bad hand in lifer, and she tries to improve.
Daria is, to be blunt,a cynical asshole with a distorted view of the world who pushes away people and then claims to be an outcast, who has an unhealthy relationship with her only friend, and all of this, despite having a pretty decent homelife, especially compared to what her father and especially Jane had
same here, though as a child i’d typically have a maximum of 1 friend so i’m more accustomed to being around a partner all the time. But it’s really difficult to be around anymore than that, most people aren’t worth being around unless you’ve known them since childhood. Even my own family was too much of a headache to deal with (a lot of cat ladies that don’t even have cats). It feels like, if you’re not social by 25 you typically never will be or will desire to be. But that doesn’t make one safe from loneliness unfortunately. Online interactions can only do so much
Apparently that's been retooled into an idea for Jodie and Daria in college.
Or just Jodie? Something like that.
For a while it was just going to be a remake with Jodie as the friend instead of Jane. Wouldn't that be sad?
She SORTA did, but ONE, it's a bit too little too late, should have come earlier, doesn't really fix anything she already did, and still puts her mostly in the right, and TWO, clearly she didin't fucking do anything of this considering what Susan and Karen are saying.
I don't expect love. That was the point. I was saying I don't expect them to put up with some of the crazy things ive done. The only way I think I could make things work is to find another young kid and groom her.
Yeah, I figured she had learned SOME lessons by the end.
For a show that used Daria as the wise sage to point out the crap in society, to have her have zero growth in 20 some odd years seems like some weird bit of cynical self hatred.
>the POC characters don't even get a shitty zoomerized post-show narrative
I mean it's high school by the end. People aren't done growing in high school. Frankly I thought throwing Daria in college with a bunch of other cynical big brains would have her, to some degree, realize the self indulgent bullshit that attitude is. That going through life like that is ridiculous. Give her a whole reflection of herself sort of thing.
Sick, Sad World
I think it was a new series just focusing on Jodie. If it's a sequel show that's fine. I mean Daria itself is a spin off of Beavis and Butthead, so it makes sense to just continue that retool and sequelize thing.
