Like, you don't need to be an olympic athlete to get a little exercise. A light regular workout goes a long way.

The other day I went for a jog after not going for a week due to crunch time at work, was super stiff, and tripped over my feet and biffed face first into decorative mulch and slid down a drainage slope.

It was hilarious. I had dirt in my mouth, my arm was bleeding, it was great. Some dude helped me up, I was laughing dirt out of my face, a bunch of girls were like "are you ok??"

Like, I didn't go home and write an angry diatribe about the evils of garden mulch or "you think you're bettre than me chad because I MEANT to fall in the ditch" and never ever jog again

The same goes for socializing?

drat a bunch of girls talked to you? Crazy poo poo my friend. Thanks for telling us about it.

like if you don't feel comfortable going to the safeway in a goddamn bathrobe and flip flops like you're from The Big Lebowski then you need work on killing whatever part of you thinks the cashier's opinion matters, or whether the stranger you'll never see again ever is thinking nasty things about you in their internal dialogue


and the funny part is people really like it actually, they don't just go 'what a wierdo.' there's a dude at the deli who slips me free poo poo constantly now just because he likes me.

if you're going somewhere nice by all means dress up booboo but lol at people who are really worried about whether some stranger you'll never see again will think bad thoughts about you

They probably have those opinions for a reason, and in general if a stranger thinks something bad about you the people around you who you interact with on a regular basis probably think the same. What others think of you is probably the most important thing there is, as humans are social creatures and your social standing is your most important asset.

I'm telling you that in reality people respond hella well to someone doing their own thing. Don't be a follower, be a trend setter. Stop obsessing so much about what other people think all the time. Get confident because you know you're dope af regardless of what some chucklefuck says.

People in that grocery store know me by name and greet me and smile and wave and give me free poo poo so if your argument is they'll all hate on me then lol I gots tons of free poo poo the deli dude slips me that says otherwise.


I wore goddamn cheetah print PJs to a bar the other month bc they are comfy and I couldn't be assed to change when my friend said 'let's go get some day drinks' and I got no less than 3 people telling me they love my pants and one bought me a drink. Goddamn cheetah print PJs. Bet your $200-300 social status jeans don't get drinks bought for you.

i think it's 2 sides of the same coin, if you project what you think society wants, and are good at determining that then it works out. but if you're bad at it you end up as a nice guy. If you don't give a poo poo and are just fun to be around, it works out too. if you don't give a poo poo and you're an rear end in a top hat, you're an rear end in a top hat.

Well yeah I'm still really nice to people and I'm humble I don't walk around like my poo poo doesn't stink. I just don't give a poo poo and I'm chill to be around (I realize my posting doesn't reflect that but SA is kinda the pressure valve I guess) and it works out.

Just got a free J from the club a few weeks ago and I gave it to said deli dude as a 'hey thanks for the free stuff duder' and he really appreciated it.

only ugly dudes get tagged as creep

This is true but 75% of ugly dudes could move into passable territory by losing weight, getting a haircut, improving heir fashion choices beyond socks with sandals, or some combination of all three. There are a few people who are unlucky enough that they'll never be attractive but that's life man. Figure out where you are and get pretty or get rich. Girls have this drilled into them when they're young - look as pretty as you can or poo poo will suck.

You should care about what someone thinks of you only if you're doing something that has the potential to tangibly affect their quality of life, or if they're someone whose opinion you actually have a good reason to value. Otherwise, you shouldn't give a poo poo.

It wont matter what his intent actually is because ANYTIME someone in this thread makes ANY comment about ANY sort of interaction with a real live woman you post some snarky comment. Its almost like you are some kind of weirdo that cant stand those dumb jerks that all the stupid sluts seem to love.

If you really want to impress a girl but are a bit, shall we say, goony then the trick is to put all of your skills and passion into building one hell of a sandcastle. Ask any women in this thread - there is literally no flaw or series of flaws a man can have that won't be completely forgiven for a kickass sandcastle. poo poo, that thing where you make a slurry of sand and drip it onto the parapets to get a kind of melty effect might as well be considered a date rape drug.

We don't live in small tight-knit communities of 150-200 people like we did when we evolved to our more-or-less current configuration back in hunter-gatherer times. Back then it made sense to care about what everyone you met thought about you because you were all directly involved in each other's lives and knew each other on a personal and continuing basis. If you were a jerk or a weirdo it could potentially have real, negative consequences for the entire small community.

Our brains still think like that but we don't live in those kinds of small communities anymore. The random nameless person you pass by on the street of a city containing thousands or millions of residents has neither the right nor the legitimate need to judge you on a personal level. Your brain may be telling you otherwise, but you are free to ignore your brain in such cases.

We had a real piece of work in our college class. At first we thought he was just awkward, but one sunny day me and a friend ending up sitting behind him on a city bus by coincidence. He didn't know we were there and we wound up witnessing something pretty disturbing. He stood next to two girls, they were standing in an alcove beside him talking to each other and he was in the middle aisle. He keeps looking at them every couple of minutes in between cramming his phone right into his eyeballs. Oddly his phone seems to be blank. With his greasy asscrack hanging out of his pants, he begins to turn his butt towards them while looking intently at his phone. Ever so slowly he begins to move backwards, gradually pressing his grotesque butt into contact with them, pretending not to notice they're behind him. This goes on for over a minute until the two girls are squashed together with his pasty rear end and can barely move. The girls start giving each other looks and stop talking, but he's blocking the way out. Finally, as we stare utterly dumbfounded, they manage to squeeze past him when the bus turns a sharp corner it moves him away towards the wall.

Now that's creepy.
