'Welcome :) Although I'm like a one week old newbie, is that gauche for me to say welcome?
Who? Lol Growing up my parents nailed it into my sister and I's head to conserve EVERYTHING like crazy, not just money but food, water, food, plastic bags, and yes, candy. When classmates...
Haha, it's all good bro (now you can rage at me for lousy American colloqualisms :D). Thanks for the welcome! There's that INTP social harmony. Sorry to hear about the heartbreak, that shit will...
Dayum. No wonder I failed out of college. So now not only have we learned that all men are gay, also everyone is sexist :D I'll bite, speaking for myself only. Again, there's not a single...
I feel ya. 639034
Holy shit, I'm so down. Oh man. Whenever I start playing a game I quickly feel like I'm not playing to play, but playing to solve it. But then when I find out all of the underlying mechanics...
Damn dude. I'll keep this open and read it little by little. Can I meet you in person sometime? Lol. You know, do some drugs, solve the universe.
Indeed. Wikipedia: Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is an American businessman, television personality, politician, and the 45th President of the United States.
Same, but I guess my viewing experience has only been limited to the popular ones. My brother-in-law, who lives with me, is super critical of all the mainstream anime (think he rated Naruto 4/10 or...
LOL I was a sheltered 90's kid, so if I tried to watch Star Trek I'd have trouble seeing him not in a wheelchair.
Lol, interesting. Now that I think of it though, you're spot on. I do hear a lot of I prefer animals over people, etc. It actually angers me, as that seems the type to be obsessed with all of the...
U of C? Don't answer that, I'm not about making things weird. Clever. Anti-Intellectualism I'm actually a bit more optimistic than you guys on this. Sure some social media activity is...
Sigh...I'm not. Just elaborating on red pill concepts gets me lumped in with redpillers, even though I continuously qualify my statements saying that I'm not defending or advocating anything. I...

Lol this reads like the perfect opening scene for a thriller with an awkward genius hero protagonist
R3 is coming out next year!!!! Not joking!! Lol everyone shits on Bleach but it's my favorite :( I was the biggest sobbing mess of a man I've ever been watching SAO (Season 1 only). Best...
Thank you, it's a sign of my fragility right now that some kind words from a stranger online mean so much. I'm surrounded by so much negativity from Alice and demanding people in business. I do...
Yeah, I 100% agree with your perspective on redpillers. As with every post I make in this thread, when I say red pill I only refer to the following ideas: I don't think any of the above is...
My dispassionate line was in no way directed at anyone here. Just musing at how hard it is for males to try to understand the female experience, and vice versa. This fundamental break makes the...
Damn, you nailed it on the username. Didn't think it'd be so obvious! Guess I'm letting it all hang out in this thread. Just feels weird to have the opportunities I do when I've failed so much in the...
Interesting. I'm just thinking of how in Rome: Total War, the Germanic tribes were the only barbarian people to fight using long spears. I've always randomly gotten surges of that I love...
I hate almost all first date cliches actually. Dinner & movie then drive her home and kiss on the doorstep Right, cuz silently staring at a screen next to each other for two hours is a good way to...
Shit, I just realized the title of this thread is a bit misleading. When I mention in-laws in the title, implying I am frustrated with them, it's really Alice's family (Bob) that I'm talking about,...
Annoying that those topics are supposed to be socially unacceptable on a first date. What better way to get deep right away? I think it's a pretty clever reference actually. I think of it as a...
Wasn't being ironic in my previous post. I would (and do) not react positively if it's assumed and beat over my head that all I want in a woman is T&A. Just like the women in this thread elaborating...
Woah, looks like I'm several pages behind. Anyway, sure, my given other things equal question never happens IRL. But isn't it our nature to entertain abstract thought experiments? I...
I'd add to that, willful and proud ignorance.
Is this the brother I remind you of? :((((((
Damn, that paper looks like good stuff, bookmarked. And nahh man I enjoy the fleshing out of our standards of rigor when it comes to qualifying the claims we make in these conversations. It's just a...
Sure, that's fair. I am indeed just proposing un-researched ideas. The level of rigor here is low, as is expected for a random internet conversation. My suggestion would include that males would...
Of course I don't expect to declare financial death. My actions and choices are a manifestation of my risk-reward calculations. The risk is what I signed up for, and it's what I chose. It's just that...
Quite a lot actually, if we are to believe that prehistoric humans lived and traveled in small bands. The limit on the number of social relationships our brains can maintain supports this. I think...
I'm levered up to my eyeballs. The extreme aggression and riskiness of my financial strategy is the sole reason my business could grow as fast as it did. I'll pull back and de-lever when the time is...
Piggybacking I FUCKING HATE the arrogant genius trope. It pisses me off so fucking much. It's supposed to be all cool and justified because being smart is more important and better than...
Interesting point on sunsets. I like that, the next phase. It's said our perception of time speeds up with age, so it's totally one thing for me to conceptualize spending 10 years in one place with...
Slowly some guys are realizing this 638786 I agree with most of what you say, especially thinking of sex in terms of its reproductive purpose, except for 1) the nuclear family ideal and 2)...
That's fair enough dude. I came in preparing to be judged and am sorry for any anger/negativity my persona here triggers. Although I'd be lying if I said your words don't still hurt. Money sure is a...
Gosh call me annoyingly enthusiastic noobie but I am damn glad to be here because Nell although we're sparring opposite sides, the logical points transfer naturally and differences arise from...
Very fitting then that your profile references Daleks. Great, now everyone knows Pifanjr doesn't mind ketchup on his hot dog as long as the bun is tight. :tongue: Re: Status Ok more...
Thank you guys. Emotionally, my mind seems to still be stuck on me failing out of college two years ago, so that's what I'm mostly still processing in therapy. It's got years of catching up to do! ...
Hahahaha. Adorable. http://0.media.collegehumor.cvcdn.com/70/86/53b27e12f7368492375a5dadf0f3bfb8_13.mp4 I, for one, hate some things that are supposed to be considered sexy or seductive....
Yeah, pretty much! Yeah it just so happens the internet communities that talk about the red pill have plenty of overlap with those that share men's dating strategies. Hopefully it's peace of mind...
638642 638650 638658 638666 Can anyone help me understand why he feels the way he does? Anyone with a rural upbringing explain how the situation might be perceived differently? Or does he have...
Trying my hardest to keep this wall of text smaller than the one in China, but it's an understatement to say that brevity is not my strong suit. Trying to process and understand this shit...so of...
Yeah, that's a core part of the theory - that men and women are different. Penises/vaginas, hormonal and body differences, and the next step up, behavioral. Up to you whether you believe that or not....
I detest both that perception of the red pill and the (money-motivated) men of the manosphere who perpetuate it. Trust me, no one ever got laid from the red pill alone. In the text that Bismuth...
I can't debate the agenda of the red pill because I don't know who its originator really was and what was in his or her mind. I could tell you what MY agenda would be though, and it's quite different...
I view alpha and beta as contextual, dynamic, and nonbinary. We can think of them as actions or perceptions that activate the fulfilling of different sets of needs in women. Red pill theory would...
Huh. All of that international living experience in world class cities, yet your own answer to the thread seems to lean on the side of country. Perhaps there's some wisdom to be gained here that a...'
