I mean it doesn't look natural. It looks drawn on, because it is. Some days she would look surprised all day at school. At least she grew out of it.

I too, have met a PUA once. I was standing outside having a cig at a place I often go to, and this dude approaches me out of nowhere and asks me if I'm a "player", probably because I know a lot of people there and usually go around talking to different folks, many of them girls!!!

So before I get a chance to tell him I'm absolutely not a player, he goes off about this book he read about the art of seduction (I'm guessing the Mystery one) and how he's trying all this stuff out there. So I had a fun night following this dude around with a friend, and telling all the girls he's approaching "Hey this dude is trying seduction things he learned from a book out on you, it's about how you substitute having a personality with the use of a set scenario for communication, basically a manual to sociopathy".

That night was a good night.


e: although I was a bit miffed about not using the "I'm not a player, I just gently caress a lot" line

My god this is brilliant! Have a wing man pretend to be a PUA and use your exact lines as an opener. The PUA game just got more interesting.

Wow, just like that? I thought that there's a wide problem with police not taking these kind of things seriously (not that your anecdote of success negates or excuses their previous failures in dealing with sexual assault).

Well for me it's one incident/one success so I don't think it's a good sample size. Though if the guy knew that hugging could be assault and completely clammed up I'm sure the police could have turned around and accused me of filing a false report.

Well, if the guy denied everything they would have been SOL unless there were a ton of witnesses and it was pretty open and shut. It's more surprising that a DA would bother with something like that.

It's probably just an excuse to be condescending/belittling towards women. Because they all completely stopped changing at the age of 18-20 or whatever, so are mentally stunted. Meanwhile these weirdos have an excuse to both act like total manchildren ("I'm only 25, my brain isn't totally mature yet!") and then also feel superior because they never stop improving unlike those feeeemales. :smugbert:

The most interesting thing about this image? The "fat girl" is still drawn as rather attractive, with make up, nice hair, etc. Because even a fat girl has a "duty" to look as good as possible for her man.

The neckbeard, on the other hand, literally has a neckbeard, ponytail, fedora, and is EVEN FATTER than the fat girl. Because he shouldn't have to change his appearance to please anyone, and further, he is entitled to sex with a 10/10 because of the accident of being born with a penis.

Fascinating, how these little details leak through.

Sounds like you're fishing. You could flip that around and say that the fat girl feels like she's entitled to an attractive normal man... Who isn't a neckbeard.

EDIT: Also I just noticed the fat girl has much messier hair than the skinny one and really unattractive birth control glasses.

Upon closer examination I noticed the weird division between the two photos and the difference in art style. I looked it up and the left side of the photo is the original, the right part with the neckbeard and hot girl was drawn after.

Maybe I was fishing a little, but let's be honest. There are neckbeards, bronies, otaku, etc. out there who will read what I wrote, ignore the obvious moral revulsion, and think, "Yeah, this guy's telling it how it is!"
Because their Asperger's prevents them from recognizing irony and sarcasm.

Yeah now that I see it was drawn in later, this all seems less farfetched. Also you accidentally hit one of my hot buttons... there is few things I hate more than people who think they're real and respectable because they "tell it like it is." It's called being tactless and it's not a good thing. Typically I see this with trailer trashy people, but it doesn't surprise me that neckbeards do the same.

Yeah, some of the older (40+) generations like to go "anti-PC" even in the first conversations. As someone who works on a food truck that serves Mexican Food, I get so many of these people making "Authentic, huh? I don't know if I want to eat donkey or dead dog harr harr." I just learn to let the awkwardness speak for itself, and that maybe they'll learn that it's not proper polite loving conversation. These people are typically awkward, because they are so ready to bait people into political correctness debates whenever possible.

I wish that worked for me. I actually just got back from dinner with my partner's mom and sister. The food was probably delicious, but I spent more time biting my tongue than I did eating. They are educated, intelligent women who think that loudly imitating foreign accents and making fun of black people's names are perfectly acceptable and hilarious things to do in public places. It's almost painfully embarrassing. I've never once even pretended to find it funny, and because of that they think I'm a huge snob with no sense of humor.

I get to spend the whole day with them tomorrow. Lucky me.

True. I remember when John Franti and Spearhead performed on New Year's Eve when I was stuck with my parents. Holy poo poo, the second they heard "Spearhead," they just couldn't stop making each other laugh by saying "Spearchucker" for the rest of the night. They've rapidly gotten better about it after mom ended up with a more diverse workstaff, and my father finally getting it into his brain that he actually agrees with everything Obama has put into place, when he just believed every thing his white buddies would make up about him.

I never really watched Nick or anything with my friends when they'd come over or sleep over. We'd typically instead watch Comedy Central shows and stand-up. We got into and out of the whole "LOL BLACKS AND WATUHMELINS," phase pretty quickly, and moved on to other stuff in time for us to pretty much hate Mind of Mencia when it first came out. It feels like everybody not into comedy runs into this thought process of "it's presented as a joke, so it's funny!" which results in Jeff Dunham having money, and them getting guilt-tripped into laughing at "edgy" comedians going on about political correctness when in actuality the crowd didn't laugh because you're a lazy, unfunny hack.

I guess that fits into awkward, but just in case, I'd like to bring up Goons on Beards 2013 again. I have a buddy who's kind of the polar opposite of what I mostly see. When he threatens, or in some cases, does cut his beard, his male friends cheer and females hate it. I think he looks much better with it than without, since he can actually grow a full one and keeps it well-groomed. Since I see people who are vehemently anti-beard in all forms, I'd like to see what their opinions are:

My best friend likes to pull out some racist jokes now and then. I never realized how gross it sounded until recently because, I dunno, I guess when it's coming from your best friend you find ways to subconsciously justify/defend it. When done for a group, I think she misinterprets the awkward "Oh, wow, that's pretty bad, heh..." laughter as "Oh, wow, that's SO BAY-AD! HAW" laughter. She's a wonderful person aside from this and it makes me really angry that she thinks this way. This belongs in the Awkward, Ugly, and Gross thread because racism just doesn't look good on anybody.
