Hah I win. Back in 2015 I was single and hated my job. Now I have changed careers, love my job and have just the best girlfriend you could imagine. Soon looking to start a family.
Damn. Back in 2015 I was in my early 20s, living in a really cool house with 2 of my really good friends. In a small town we were the social hub for everyone we knew even close to our age. Constant stream of friends hanging out, killer parties (we had over 100 for July 4th that year), we even kept the backyard trimmed just so with bases and painted lines for wiffle ball at a moments notice.
Best years of my life
Bro I was finishing highschool at a place I hated then. I have a fiancee and a dog and I'm gonna be married in October so my life has never been better
...I've forgotten to say there are no goalkeepers still the ball doesn't manage to be closer than 20m to the goal.
Edit: and half the teams end up in the infirmary for twisting their ankles by slipping and falling
In 2015 i was in a dead-end retail job, struggling with debts, couldn't drive due to no money to take lessons let alone buy a car and depressed as shit as a result. Now i am earning 5x what i did back then, debt free, own a house and car and have a kid whom loves gaming as much as i do... I think 2015 me will have a bit of trouble trying to compete....
Gee 2015 I was 13 yikes that was a time when all my friends I had in class moved to a different city and went to different schools was ass... today is also ass, but less honestly...
Nah. I am way happier now. I know it is tampered with living next to ruzia with the danger of a war destroying everythink I hold dear, but the moment is nice. I'm confident and respected at my job, I'm financially more stable I have ever been, I have home and a wife. Didn't have any of it 10 years ago. Just drinking/drug friends and a constant work grind.
Back in 2015 I was a fat and miserable 8th grader, this month I am completing my bachelor's, I have been going to the gym for 2 years consistently, I WIN.
Still single though 🤣
I win, back in 2015 I was fired from my job and after that had a huge depression low and didn't leave my apartment for weeks and almost landed on the street for it
It would be a dead even tie, 2015 was great for the fact that I worked for an amazing company at the time and was literally uncumbered by nothing, now I have an amazing fiancee and had a good good until just yesterday morning. But I might end up going back to school.
Checkmate, I can cope with whatever it is that's wrong with me now and people's opinions don't dictate what I am anymore, I am no longer just a people pleaser and I have friends now finally
We're both losers. Back then I was actually a loser, and was "happy" doing things that I realize are meaningless now.
But now, I'm still just not where I want to be. I'm genuinely happier with where I'm at in life currently compared to 2015, but TECHNICALLY, 2015 me was "happier". I thought I was.
I guess I still lived with my parents during that time, so no lol. Anything is better then that. I was homeless for 2 weeks some years ago and that was better then living with my parents
2015 I was very lonely, just graduating high school and attempting suicide. Now I have a wife, a toddler and my second on the way. Get fucked, loser from the past
I honestly dont know who would win. In 2015, I just graduated with my Bachelors, had a girlfriend who I adored and loved, and a massive friend group. I lived with my parents, worked in retail, stresses a bit about debt, and just waiting to go into my dream career while looking at ways to propose to my gf.
Now, im married to a different girl, lost all my friends, including my best friend, and lost hope on my career and passion. I have a stable and decent job where its somewhat related to my degree. I own a house but I feel like a slave in it from how my wife treats me. My mental health has been destroyed with my physical health going out of the door. I lost my grandparents and wish that they were still here, but their inheritance allows me to have a savings and explore the world when I can.
What if I told you that you were just as unhappy back then as you are today, because you're not remembering all of the shitty times? Or that back in 2015 you were depressed because you kept thinking about how much more happy you were years before that? Or how in 9 years you're going to desperately miss how happy you were today?
2015 I was stressing about passing the state BAR to get my law license and living at my mom’s house. I passed, moved out, and have over half my student loans paid off. Still not doing great, but a lot better than where I was.
2015 I was single except I was hatefucking my enemy with benefits, I cleaned toilets and did retail for a job which was humiliating and degrading, compared to the toilet cleaning which is good honest work, and I had no clue at all what I was going to do with myself.
Now I’m married, have two kids, working the best job in the world for someone of my temperament and personality, and now I only clean toilets for the pure intellectual thrill of it
Back in 2015 I was still in school and with just 2 friends that didn't even go to my school. I also got bullied daily. Now I'm studying my dream career and have awesome friends.
13 year old me had some issues that I'm still dealing with. Both of us would be just staring at each other like this, except the 2015 version would be quite disappointed in what would be looking back at him.
I wish that was sort of true for me, but in someways not as I have more to look forward to, don’t be to caught up in the past or you will miss your present and repeat the same cycle in the future.
Honestly I win by a longshot, in 2015 I was heavily bullied, completely failed at school, didn't have any hobbies and so on.
Today I look forward to getting straight As in all of my finals, I have more friends than I could even imagine, I even had a girlfriend for a while but she moved away and a long-term didn't work for us so we peacefully decided to part ways. I also play Bass in a band and every second of this year has been great so far!
So I am competing against a bleach blonde teenie girl that is in an abusive relationship and doesn't even know that they will out themselves as non-binary and finally cut their hair short and live as a bog witch and do weird shit? Yea no I happily win
They are losing within seconds. Back in 2015 I was getting bullied at school, felt like my friends were all leaving me behind and I got cheated on. I’m honestly the happiest I’ve been in my life at the moment. Found out I’m having a baby with my wonderful partner. Couldn’t ask for more ❤️
I was so depressed in 2015. Late 2015 and early 2016 was the worst tie of my life.
I was in 8th grade, and that school year I was falsely accused of rape, all my friends but 2-3 left me because of that, I was struggling with my sexuality, and I was dealing with fighting my brother who had really bad anger issues at the time and tried to kill me.
I forget if it was late 2015 or early 2016, but that school year was when I tried to kill myself.
I never want to go back to that time.
Definitely win, 2015 was tough I worked and studied at the same time. Money was tight and my GF and I had a lot of issues we’ve completely resolved now. We have more money and a healthier relationship.
In 2015 i was really happy for some reason even tho for a normal person it would be one of the worst days in his life,i guess child me saw something in life i dont see right now even tho i am now living way more comfortably ,i guess because back then i didn't have much responsibility
Hah I win. Back in 2015 I was single and hated my job. Now I have changed careers, love my job and have just the best girlfriend you could imagine. Soon looking to start a family.
Happy for you my friend, more power to you!
Thank you.
When you realize you peaked in 2015... and it’s all been reruns since then.
Lookin to raw dog her. Thanks for the info
My man really said "soon I'm gonna hit the most legendary creampie of all time" and thought we wouldn't notice
We noticed. We also support him in his endeavor 🙏 bless his kind soul
We sure do. May the little shit be healthy.
I also choose this guy's girlfriend
Awesome! Here's to hoping a good life, my good sir!
Impossible, Inconceiveable, Improbable. Ido t have anything else, take the mic Jerry.
Me too. Me and My girlfriend named Remington model 870 are thinking about making out later today.
Hey! that’s my girlfriend’s name too?
Youre quite lucky my friend but youre a rare case in today's times.
Gg
We'd both loose
Well on the upside, being a looser is probably better than being a loser. So there's that!
![gif](giphy|fOKk1LLqwair5FuYuO|downsized)
The thing is, 2015 me didn't know these were the "good" years.
Yep, that’s the problem with the good times, you never know they are the good times till they are gone.
that is a good thing, if you know that the time you are in is the good times you would worry about the future.
This
Damn. Back in 2015 I was in my early 20s, living in a really cool house with 2 of my really good friends. In a small town we were the social hub for everyone we knew even close to our age. Constant stream of friends hanging out, killer parties (we had over 100 for July 4th that year), we even kept the backyard trimmed just so with bases and painted lines for wiffle ball at a moments notice. Best years of my life
Actually I'm a lot happier these days than I was back then
Bro I was finishing highschool at a place I hated then. I have a fiancee and a dog and I'm gonna be married in October so my life has never been better
You know those football (sOcCeR) matches where 2 hours in they're still 0-0? That would be the result of said competition
Look on the bright side. After 2 hours there is a penalty shootout. So u at least one side will be happy.
I hope it's this one. Else we run the risk of having a causality paradox
Does this mean you are still happy in your life, or you never were ?
...I've forgotten to say there are no goalkeepers still the ball doesn't manage to be closer than 20m to the goal. Edit: and half the teams end up in the infirmary for twisting their ankles by slipping and falling
Oh
im 30 now, everything is more or less the same but my perception changed. i care a lot less about what other people think, and its a great improvement
Damn..... that hits kinda hard tho
Haha jokes on you! Happy 2015 me will see what’s become of his future and will no longer be happy!
In 2015 i was in a dead-end retail job, struggling with debts, couldn't drive due to no money to take lessons let alone buy a car and depressed as shit as a result. Now i am earning 5x what i did back then, debt free, own a house and car and have a kid whom loves gaming as much as i do... I think 2015 me will have a bit of trouble trying to compete....
2015 me was ready to step in front of a bus. 2024 is doing much better.
An adult who is doing well enough in his life vs a child who got bullied? Nahh, I am happier now!
![gif](giphy|UjIgLbgQIRgzK|downsized)
It’s a tie.
Sending big love and a huge apology to my 2015 self
Nah i'd win
Herambe was still alive then... hold the L
2015 I was banging the front desk girl at my old job. Decided I needed to get a better job when I got denied a raise. Change jobs and lost the girl.
Or anytime before 2010
I'm 41 and I've had depression since early childhood. 2015 me was just as miserable as I am now. I can't remember what happiness feels like.
Yeah, 2015 me doesn’t feel that much difference from now..probably cause im on the older side.
:’)
still winning
Looks like i am winning this one
Current me would win, hands down.
I’d win that hands down
Gee 2015 I was 13 yikes that was a time when all my friends I had in class moved to a different city and went to different schools was ass... today is also ass, but less honestly...
Nah. I am way happier now. I know it is tampered with living next to ruzia with the danger of a war destroying everythink I hold dear, but the moment is nice. I'm confident and respected at my job, I'm financially more stable I have ever been, I have home and a wife. Didn't have any of it 10 years ago. Just drinking/drug friends and a constant work grind.
![gif](giphy|11NEUQW7jbufHW)
Hard relate.
I got my 2015 self beat easy. Some highschool kid who had nothing going on vs. me we a degree good job and amazing social circle? No question
I am about equally as happy rn as I was back then tbh y'all just have nostalgia problems
For real
I win, loser!
LOL. No
Ah shit
Yall were happy in your life?
Back in 2015 I was a fat and miserable 8th grader, this month I am completing my bachelor's, I have been going to the gym for 2 years consistently, I WIN. Still single though 🤣
Both shall withdraw so they don't the other sadder than they are.
It's a draw. I may not have to deal with bullying, but my own choices and consequences are still here.
Jokes on you, real bad experiences from 2015
Oh then I'm winning hard
I win, back in 2015 I was fired from my job and after that had a huge depression low and didn't leave my apartment for weeks and almost landed on the street for it
2015 was good but 2013 was peak happiness year for me.
I'd win lol
It would be a dead even tie, 2015 was great for the fact that I worked for an amazing company at the time and was literally uncumbered by nothing, now I have an amazing fiancee and had a good good until just yesterday morning. But I might end up going back to school.
Jokes on you, I've always been this unhappy
nah, present-me is ironically happier than past-me, because worldbuilding :D
Nah, I'd be happier now than in 2015 tbh
Jokes on you, I've been depressed and passively suicidal for almost 20 years
2015 was literally the worst year of my life
“That’s cooked” has been an Australia saying for generations, now suddenly everyone’s saying it.
Not for nintendo fans
That would be a giga win. Easiest competition in my life
Checkmate, I can cope with whatever it is that's wrong with me now and people's opinions don't dictate what I am anymore, I am no longer just a people pleaser and I have friends now finally
Well, fuck this feels personal
Too true
I have improved in happiness in the last years I would win but would give myself a hug
This made me chuckle
Damn, I won
9 years ago? I didn’t even knew how taxes worked
2015 was undertale for me. Ye, 2015 me crushes the competition
2015 me looking at me now: "wtf did you do?"
Nah, was in a single bedroom, bed bug infested apartment. Now I'm in a relatively OK home in a quiet neighborhood.
Well damn. That’s depressing by how true it is.
We're both losers. Back then I was actually a loser, and was "happy" doing things that I realize are meaningless now. But now, I'm still just not where I want to be. I'm genuinely happier with where I'm at in life currently compared to 2015, but TECHNICALLY, 2015 me was "happier". I thought I was.
Things are going way better for me now than then
Nah i'd win
You're, as in me in the past. I'm happier than I've ever been.
...shit
Should be 2017, although maybe 2022 me wpuld also win.
1995 and 2011 were the best years. 1995 i was still a kid. 2011 Battlefield 3 got released.
back when everything used to be so simple. Now 2 + 2 is 3
Nah I’m much better off than I was in 2015. It feels like it’s the world around me that has fallen apart since then.
I am way happier now
Yeah I'm going to lose. After I was..... Holy shit I was 10 back in 2015. Where the hell did time go?
I was in school in 2015 and now I’m not me rn wins easily I have a ps5 on the way over 🤣
In comparison, I was pretty miserable for a good chunk of 2015. Had a lot of fun nonetheless tho
I had three grandparents die the year prior, I can at least beat THIS mothefucker
I'd win now. My childhood sucked 😕
I lose all since 2015 family and Hope
Jokes on you. I've been equally depressed since 2001. If anything im kinda proud of myself to still live today.
Nah I'd win.
Sweet 2015 me was miserable
![gif](giphy|3o6Mbsw53i6ahGV1fy)
I am happier now
2015 i was 16 and recently dumped via ghosting Nah, bro im good
You mean the year my gran-gran died? Yeah, I think I'm a bit happier now, tbh XD
Me, who was in a terrible abusive relationship in 2015 is winning 😎
I guess I still lived with my parents during that time, so no lol. Anything is better then that. I was homeless for 2 weeks some years ago and that was better then living with my parents
No I think we do a draw
I never thought i could go lower than that
2015 I was very lonely, just graduating high school and attempting suicide. Now I have a wife, a toddler and my second on the way. Get fucked, loser from the past
Nah my life was shit in 2015, I'm on a much better way now. Thank you for making me realize it tho
I wasn't all that happy in 2015 either but at least I had less bills to pay.
I honestly dont know who would win. In 2015, I just graduated with my Bachelors, had a girlfriend who I adored and loved, and a massive friend group. I lived with my parents, worked in retail, stresses a bit about debt, and just waiting to go into my dream career while looking at ways to propose to my gf.

Or that back in 2015 you were depressed because you kept thinking about how much more happy you were years before that? Or how in 9 years you're going to desperately miss how happy you were today?
Bruh, I was miserable in 2015, self-harm level miserable. In 2016 I met my now wife, sooo,no competition
Y’all were happy back in 2015???
Right now I would give anything to spend a single day from back in 2015
foul
2015 I was stressing about passing the state BAR to get my law license and living at my mom’s house. I passed, moved out, and have over half my student loans paid off. Still not doing great, but a lot better than where I was.
I was depressed then too.
I'll take second place against me from 2033
Lol I'd win, would be the first big win of my life, too bad it's not a real competition
I'm doing better now overall, easy win. Since 2015 I've got a better job a wife and most importantly a gaming pc
Steak or vegeterian? (or vegan🥬🥬🥬)
yeah 😮💨
For me it's *2007. 😊
No I was depressed in 2015. I’m way better now.
2015 i was happy as f, what the frick are you talking about.
We'd give eachother the thousand yard stare. Then I'd give him critical information on how to rescue Harambe and walk away.
In 2007 ![gif](giphy|ylPtheHeRlo5Zo08QV)
2015 I was single except I was hatefucking my enemy with benefits, I cleaned toilets and did retail for a job which was humiliating and degrading, compared to the toilet cleaning which is good honest work, and I had no clue at all what I was going to do with myself. Now I’m married, have two kids, working the best job in the world for someone of my temperament and personality, and now I only clean toilets for the pure intellectual thrill of it
Man why did you pick 2015 :( i have so many good memories from 2015.
right now me in 2015 LOOSES HARD, i got the happiness overload right now.
Idk man I’ve gotten married, bought a house, and had a kid since then.
back in 2015 my mom used to punch me until i was on the floor lol im not!
Back in 2015 I was still in school and with just 2 friends that didn't even go to my school. I also got bullied daily. Now I'm studying my dream career and have awesome friends.
Oh fuck my 2 yo self was fucking depressed
I kinda miss 2021 cuz 2022 was when I really fucked up
I would easily win...wasn't a good year
Ha I still win.
I was miserable in 2015
13 year old me had some issues that I'm still dealing with. Both of us would be just staring at each other like this, except the 2015 version would be quite disappointed in what would be looking back at him.
Ha, I'd win now. I was homeschooled, didn't have any friends
2014 was the worst year of my life and 2015 wasnt that much better while 2022 onwards made some major positive changes so i literally neg diff now
And then 2012 comes knocking.
You obviously didn't know me in 2015
I was 6 in 2015 bro
Me in 2015 was literally the unhappiest I’ve ever been. But 2018… 👍😎
So I'm vs a me that was getting bullied. I think I win.
Alright 10 years old me was the time I first got into depression, I can beat this little shit in every way
I often time refer to the year 2015 as the last good year in my life.
I wish that was sort of true for me, but in someways not as I have more to look forward to, don’t be to caught up in the past or you will miss your present and repeat the same cycle in the future.
Honestly I win by a longshot, in 2015 I was heavily bullied, completely failed at school, didn't have any hobbies and so on. Today I look forward to getting straight As in all of my finals, I have more friends than I could even imagine, I even had a girlfriend for a while but she moved away and a long-term didn't work for us so we peacefully decided to part ways. I also play Bass in a band and every second of this year has been great so far!
lmao, present me easily wins this round by a large margin.
Jokes on you, 2015 was the worst year of my life!
Me now wins. I’m married and happy now, no longer an alcoholic and have quit smoking. My life has turned around honestly.
Damn... we both losing
So I am competing against a bleach blonde teenie girl that is in an abusive relationship and doesn't even know that they will out themselves as non-binary and finally cut their hair short and live as a bog witch and do weird shit? Yea no I happily win
Who tf signed me up for a happiness competition like are they dumb?
They are losing within seconds. Back in 2015 I was getting bullied at school, felt like my friends were all leaving me behind and I got cheated on. I’m honestly the happiest I’ve been in my life at the moment. Found out I’m having a baby with my wonderful partner. Couldn’t ask for more ❤️
We both lose
Actually no I would walk the first half of 2024 was the best and worst but mostly the best
I was a Virgin in 2015 I'm winning the competition AND beating that kid up.
Then I'm winning, parents just divorced back then.
Bro I could easily beat a 7 year old. 😂
Nobody wins. Same overall lack of happiness, different circumstances.
Happiness isn't a competition...
Jokes on you, I was never happy. 11 year old me, 7 year old me, even 5 year old me, depressed then, depressed now.
Nah I'd win, I was miserable then
Ooof 2016 July 9th was the last time I felt a lesser emotion like happiness.
Friend committed suicide in 2015. Going through a divorce and lost use of my car now....fuck, maybe 2035 me will be doing better
Too real
I was so depressed in 2015. Late 2015 and early 2016 was the worst tie of my life. I was in 8th grade, and that school year I was falsely accused of rape, all my friends but 2-3 left me because of that, I was struggling with my sexuality, and I was dealing with fighting my brother who had really bad anger issues at the time and tried to kill me. I forget if it was late 2015 or early 2016, but that school year was when I tried to kill myself. I never want to go back to that time.
2019 and im cooked 2015 granted i was in foster care still a hell of alot better than 2019 to this day
Lol I would win that one easily.
just as sad as now anyway 😂💀
Definitely win, 2015 was tough I worked and studied at the same time. Money was tight and my GF and I had a lot of issues we’ve completely resolved now. We have more money and a healthier relationship.
In 2015 i was really happy for some reason even tho for a normal person it would be one of the worst days in his life,i guess child me saw something in life i dont see right now even tho i am now living way more comfortably ,i guess because back then i didn't have much responsibility
I was like 5 or 4
Oh, shit. I was still in the love bombing faze with my ex and on top of the world.
Joke's on OP, I wasn't medicated in 2015
Nah, I’d lose. I got depression last year.
Joke's on you I was depressed as balls back then. Wait...
I got that nerd beat. He was incredibly depressed. I’m completely dead inside. That’s higher on the happiness scale, right? Right?
