Do you want to give the kid good advice? If so, here's his problem: he has no decent adult men in his life to look up to. No coaches, no teachers, no dad, his stepdad sounds like a loser, and I'm guessing no uncles of any worth.
First thing he needs to do is quit sitting in his room playing Guitar Hero and go get into a hobby or activity that requires interaction. It doesn't matter if it's the chess club, a sport of some kind, working on cars, joining Boy Scouts, building model rockets or whatever the hell else is out there. He could start doing charity work. Nothing helps a person to quit thinking about all of their problems like helping others. Many social workers you meet often come from pretty bad backgrounds themselves.
Really, he should do anything that gets him involved with people, specifically normal adult men, who he can look up to and learn from, and more importantly, who can accept him and bring him into the adult world and away from his mother.
He's socially awkward because no one has taught him social rules of interaction, which he will only learn by exposure to and acceptance by adults.
In the meantime, he should get a job (any job) that keeps him out of the house and interacting with others for as long as possible -- ideally one where he has a good boss who he likes. That can be tough to find for a teenager, but not impossible.
Finally, he needs to quit with this "pity me" emo crap and take some responsibility for building his own life. Some of the finest people I know came from reprehensible parents who make his look like angels.

I'm wasted right now and I got something about guitar hero and a cadillac out of it. You've eclipsed my reading level while drunk. I saw something about 40mph which makes me think of Akili Smith driving drunk. I'd love to offer you advice about the rest but it would probably resemble the Karate Kid and How High.

I give up. This board is too hard to understand.

Well, that depends, is Donnie really BKB? If so then this might get a little confusing, especially if you go back to the Donnie thread and read the interaction between the two...
