Why are you being mean to me?
mijitdragun
5 years ago was just a less bad version of what I'm experiencing now. Toxic positivity is a helluva drug.
AbsolutelyNotBacon
"you dreamed about where are you NOW" what kind of sentence is that?
apneax3n0n
5 year ago, feb 2019 is a few months before shit hit the fan.
CaliforniaCornucopiaVegetableJubilee
True, I did dream about me sitting in front of a computer.
FarQuad
we are in the biggest club ever. "Not were I want to be" Club.

Bruno Fernandes in the last five years, signed for Manchester United and now captains them as well as being captain of his national team (Portugal) I dreamed of that many many years ago and still do
afroniner
LOL AHAHAH ABSOLUTELY NOT
bingotown
That is not correct and also very depressing. Thanks a lot.
MoriMeta
Never dreamed there will be war in my country.
sunnydayingermany
isn't this an interview question?
mthrndr01
If you were to say this to me at ANY point in my life you'd be wrong. And never in a happy way.
dragonfliesfantasize
Where you are now*
cousteau
Maybe you dreamed about "Where are you now?"
ThatTransformersDude
Honestly I didn't dream this scenario but appreciating I'm somewhere stable
HoiPolloiBoi
I call bullshit. I am nowhere near Castle Anthrax. Or in peril.
QotU
Yeah, I dreamed about a slipped disc and constant pain. I think I need to dream a lot smaller.
Exyr
The fuck I did
Frogblender
Hell of a stable life if you can say you had a plan 5 years ago and it worked out exactly like that.
nosimpleway
that is a very bold assumption to make
henriekth
I get this is supposed to be wholesome and uplifting. But the note is not fun to read for anyone where their life is not going in the direction they were hoping for. "Is everyone except me fulfilling their dreams?" - of course not everyone is that lucky.
cousteau
It's not "where you are" as in how nice your current situation is, but about how much you have endured and survived. Look at how little you knew about the world then, and you still managed to make it here.
DefinitelyNotMadeOfBees
Wow, these comments are bumming me out. Sorry, everybody, I hope things get better!
Madalchemist2018
Don't worry man 5 years from now is gonna kick ass I got a feeling this time.
Narrator: That feeling was the first signs of the tumor.
Sooner70
No, but I am dreaming about where I'll be 5 years from *now* (I won't be retired yet, but I will have backed off to part time in preparation to retire...4 day work weeks should be nice!).
IAmGodot
5 years ago I dreamed about winning the lottery and retiring in my 20s. That definitely hasn't happened.
nitemayr
13 years ago multiple people asked me "where do you see yourself in 5 years" and none of the answers I gave turned out to be accurate.
cousteau
Not a single time "on a mirror"?
quietwalker
The closest I've come to 'dreaming' about where I was to go was during freshman year of highschool when they asked us to research 3 careers. Everything from then on has entirely been reactive, and until recently, I've been one of the happier people I knew.
DukeDarkwood
Yup. I haven't thought where I might end up since before I went to college. (Maybe my first year there, at the latest. MAYBE.)
arfysdad
Nope. But I'm in such a better place now I think every day is a gift. Never thought life could be this good.
I hope in five years (or fewer) all of you feel about life as I do now .
HoneyBunchesOfStoats
Thank you, that's very kind. I hope for happiness in the coming years for you as well.
someguy7734206
In 5 years, most of us will probably be fighting over food, clean water, and usable land.
NotAThrowAwayJustDontWantToUseMyRealName
Wow these comments. I mean, having a good but easy job in this shit-ass economy and laying in bed with my wife and cats is about right. I am thriving. I'm a damn Stewart Smalley affirmation.
DrMarioSThompson
I'm leaving on a trip on Monday to see Vietnam. I never dreamed of Vietnam but I did dream of travelling to Asia and here I go! I know times are tough and the world is scary but I'm glad I'm not the only one here seeing some sunshine through the clouds once in awhile. Good luck to everyone
Them3OtherGuys
Nightmares are technically dreams.
justfiguredoutimc4azyanddumbb
....... so I am living my dreams. THANK YOU.
Lanaux
I have never felt more attacked.
myotheralt
Living the dream, baby.
Snowdemoman
Please, even in my nightmare I'm at least fighting off mythological creatures and monsters from space, even if I'm only equipped with the super slow-mo bodysuit.
MenloPart
In Afghanistan, when we asked each other how we were doing, we often answered "Living the dream." I tended to respond "Wake up, this is a nightmare!"
wrathofgrunge
It is a good viewpoint to see the world as a dream. When you have something like a nightmare, you will wake up and tell yourself that it was only a dream. It is said that the world we live in is not a bit different from this. - Yamamoto Tsunetomo
VanessaBludgeons
Even in my nightmares I never imagined getting engaged, married, and divorced all through a global pandemic in a country of cultists that tried to overthrow the government. Whirlwind. Rollercoaster. Bullshit.

Dude! I'm literally on season 4 of Scrubs right now. Like, RIGHT now. It's on my TV. Crazy.

Why the fuck would anyone assume that
cousteau
The note was written pre-covid.
Vortexhelios320
The post-it note could easily be a personal affirmation. The person writing it would thus have a unique and perfect insight into the past mind of the recipient. This way it would not be an assumption, but rather exactly what it says... a reminder. *John Watson mode deactivated*
dralin
If it's a personal message for an unique recipient, why post it publicly on the internet?
Vortexhelios320
Why do people post anything personal? Workout routines, Food about to be eaten, Photos of loved one... the list goes on. My best guess is sometimes people want to "show off" things that mean something to them, even if it may not have value to any other of those that see it. A sort of way to be "seen".
andydicktracymorganfairchild
A sort of way to exhibit intense, inveterate narcissism. That's why I do it anyway.
Vortexhelios320
I'll give you an upvote for honesty.
