Every time I feel bad about myself I read posts like these and immediately realize I could be so, so much worse.

oops. sorry for me just going by evolutionary biology.

So like I said

It's misogyny for stating outright facts and observations we see in society now?

Just go on any dating app and state your job as banker then create another profile and state your job as road sweeper or something.

Go see the brilliantly contrasting results

Why then are women always being painted as "dudes gotta be rich" ?

Because they are.

The people you know of are in the minority.

Also women tend to be more emotionally binded once they form a relationship compared to men. The women you see helping support their male partners probably been in that relationship since highschool or something.

But if you, as a guy, want to get into a relationship in your mid-20s, I'd say good effin' luck to that. Yes, you gotta be pretty rich to even have a chance at a 5/10+ girl

Well yes. But aren't humans pro cruelty anyway?

They are.

But they dont realize it.

BloodMoon7 posted...

Well they don't. That's why we don't help those people. It's simply that when you do something in the public eye, it makes it harder to ignore. Like if you saw a homeless man, you might ignore that. If he started taking a dump, you might ignore that. If he went to the top of a building and screamed about how he will take a dump, that's difficult to ignore.

OK great. So basically, we don't care that people want to commit suicide.

We just care that we should pretend to care that people want to commit suicide

Cause sometimes you wouldnt know whats best for you someone else can know whats best for you though

yeah, you better stop drinking alcohol and stop smoking cigarette because I know what's best for you. How's that for controlling your life?

Imagine if you're born a deaf mute or born without legs or arms. Your parents refused to abort you so you turn out into this disaster. Now you're forced to spend the rest of life in misery and you are not even allowed to kill yourself.

Is this not cruelty?

You're basically advocating for letting mentally unwell people diagnose and treat themselves without any external help.

I mean I really don't see how that's different. Struggling with finances and being overworked is a difficult situation, but not a hopeless one.

I'm just saying, maybe there are steps that can be taken between doing nothing and going to the ultimate extreme.

you're already stigmatising them by calling them 'mentally unwell'.
Apparently if you become too sad in life, you become called 'mentally unwell'. You should know these kind of labels do nothing but only further exacerbate these people's perception of themselves.

Yeah their situations may not be 100% hopeless but look close to hopeless. And not many people have the willpower to go and slug it through life hoping by some miracle or something they'll hit the jackpot or get back on their feet one day. Also just pushing through that is further suffering.

Lastly, we never asked to be born in the first place so why should everyone be forced to live if they dont want to?

BloodMoon7 posted...

Well they're jumping off a building for one. That's obstructive and someone has to clean up. They're not caring that the person wants to die, if that person did it quietly, they'd eventually find their body, a few people would call it a tragedy and we would all move on from it next day.

hey, good to know you agree people dont actually care then

Also I find it VERY HYPOCRITICAL for us as a society to even care only when a person wants to commit suicide? Where are we when this person is suffering in the streets? Homeless? Facing depressing? Struggling day-by-day? We just walk by. We dont give a s*** about other strangers. Even friends abandon each other when they see the person is in depression or something.

But suddenly the person wants to jump off a building and we actually CARE? What the hell is with this hypocrisy?

pinky0926 posted...

Depends on why they want to die.

If they are old and terminal or in chronic untreatable pain, sure

If they're like 22 and they're suicidal because their dog died and their boyfriend dumped them then hell no, people like that need saving from themselves.

No they're either dumb or they're very much smart enough to know their situation is hopeless. Something like boyfriend dumping is indeed stupid but something like a struggle with finances and constantly being overworked eg. is different.

But end of the day, people die when they lose meaning in their lives. It's as simple as that. Dont force them to live a life they dont want to

...them from exercising their own free will?

World is a harsh enough place as it is. They're just saving themselves from this cesspool

Dude is triggered by "meaningful conversation"

So you are desperate for sex such that this is all you can see?

What has "meaningful conversation" got to do with your topic which wasnt even mentioned in the original post?

WingsOfGood posted...

I have been alone and didn't feel utter despair.

alone for what... a few months? a few years?

try your whole life, then come back

It's like comparing the African kid starving who's feeling lonely (actually he'd be too busy starving to care about loneliness but just an example) versus a fat kid who's lonely.

They're both lonely. But put things at constat, who is still slightly better off? Also yes, lots of single lonely men would kill so much as to have sex with a hot girl.

This is like comparing...
the single guy with no lamborghini vs the single guy with a lamborghini
the single guy who is poor vs the single guy who is rich (and I'm sure he wont be single for long too...)
the single guy who gets to eat at a fancy restaurant vs the single guy who cant

like bruh, it's obvious who's way better off regardless
why am I teaching you very basic logic 101?

WingsOfGood posted...

Now you are contradicting yourself.
Sex isn't meaningful conversation or sharing yourself with another person.

So is loneliness not utter despair as long as your dick gets wet?
You have one night stand with a stranger whose name your forgot and never see again and all the sudden you are no longer lonely?

I never said that. I just said sex is still better than no sex. It doesnt mean it wont make you lonely but AT LEAST YOU CAN HAVE SEX.

COMPARED TO... NOT. HAVING. SEX. at all??

Is it that hard to understand?

sure. not like she can spy on me throughout

Also to add, a lot of men do not crave love but just crave sex first and foremost. They'll crave love eventually when they get older.

Still, sex is better than no sex at all. I mean, it's not even a comparison. This is like asking, "is 1 more than 2"?

WingsOfGood posted...

Wtf. That has nothing to do with what I quoted.
You seem to think not having a gf means utter despair and loneliness.

I guess you are the type that craves validation every second and has a fragile ego.

tell me, have you been alone before? single literally your whole life?
someone can keep telling themself all the motivational quotes they can find but eventually they'll still feel like crap and depressed.

social-belonging is a core tenet to Maslow's hierachy of needs. It's people like you who cant emphatise with how that feels like.

does Halo let you aim down the gun sights then??

WingsOfGood posted...

?

you think you can just pluck a girlfriend from the sky? or even someone hot to have sex with?

like wow

Really??

So why is literally every MCU actor hogging the leading roles in hollywood movies now?

D.

Sex is better than no sex regardless.

One is you having the opportunity and just feel a little bored.
The other is you being alone and being hopeless and in a never-ending despair in life.
Gimme a break. Whoever chooses the other option (alone) clearly never experienced real loneliness before

Am I the only one that eventually runs out of things to say when conversing with people?

Surprised you did, since Wano's animation has been absolutely amazing (well, from the parts I've seen, since I'm mostly reading the manga). As for great fights (idk if the first two aired after last june, but still)

Sanji vs Page One
Zoro vs Killer
Kaido vs Big Mom
Oden vs Whitebeard
Roger Pirates vs Whitebeard Pirates
Oden vs Kaido
Worst Generation captains vs one of Kaido's ships (it's a short scene, but still)

you forgot Luffy vs Kaido

essentially...EVERY fight has been well animated

Shotgunnova posted...

Maybe I'll check it out. Dropped the anime last year after it was mediocre animation and boring story in perhaps the longest OP arc -- awful. Any other well-animated fights in between last June and now?

The entire Wano arc is very well animated. It's the same animation team that did Dragon Ball Super's tournament arc.

Also I assume you're referring to Dressrosa? Zou and WCI arcs are also much more improved

It's freakingg movie quality

Because they can't compete obviously

Sony and Microsoft dominate the home console market in terms of serious gaming material (as in, HD AAA games). Their target audience is different. These companies also have partnerships with most AAA game developers

Nintendo caters to a different crowd. A bunch of overly nostalgic nerds and casuals who somehow never get bored of playing titles with the word 'Mario' slapped on it countless times

Sure, women have it easier with dating, especially now with these dating apps. But if youre a successful man with money, muscles, and charisma, youll be on their same level.

NO. you won't be. There are still tons of men who are rich and sexy too. And always DTF

Women have the power to choose.

Those of you mocking OP for asking this question... all you need to do is go on one of the mainstream sites like FB, Insta... or even Reddit and ask this same question.

I guarantee you you're gonna get a lot of objections and backlash, most of it from the women themselves lol

WallStreetWolf posted...

I think you just suck at doing research. Most people don't even like the third one and agree it's exploitative

What I hate most is that the Warrens are probably getting loyalty fees from these movies. These s****ty scammers who already scammed thousands of people by writing fake ass fiction books sold off as real stuff, are getting paid even more money and being seen as even more famous now because these rat's ass movies are popularising their stories

Wutobliteration posted...

you'd be surprised by how many believe

see you have an example already

Mr_Karate_II posted...

Fuck what the haters say,I don't think they were scam artist despite what was said about them.

I'm sorry but yes, they are scammers. Everyone in the industry back then knew (at least for Ed Warren), that he was scammy as s***. He was even a pedo who was raping an underaged girl at that time

Smashingpmkns posted...

Damn those paranormal investigators are scam artists? Lol

you'd be surprised by how many believe

dotsdfe posted...

The fanbase is half people who know and don't care because they find it entertaining, and half people who genuinely think it's real.

Plenty of people dislike the movies and the Warrens too.

Really? I've almost never heard criticism of the movies. Lots of so-called horror movies also claim to like them lmao. These people have never watched true horror before

It's sad because I googled around, looked around reddit...

Doesn't seem to be much talk about it since no one bothers to do their own research.
Seems most people arent actually aware the movies are faking a paranormal case that's even faker than the loch ness monster

If you read the article about Ed and Lorraine Warren, they're actually known to receive lots of criticism and for being 'storytellers' who just exaggerate claims and make up stupid stories after investing hauntings that later turn out to be dumb flukes too.

Also the Conjuring movies are lame AF. How do people even find these stuff funny...I mean scary?

I think this toilet complaint is getting over exagarated here.

Toilets are actually pretty clean in my country, even for a toilet in the park. Unless what, is it like a dumpster for every public toilet in US or something? Even in a shopping mall or a hotel itself?

Jagr_68 posted...

Despite whatever insights people have on Russia today, I think their role in WWII has seemed to diminish more and more in general history studies as the years pass.

Weird thing though is that even video games like Call of Duty and Medal of Honor showcased the background of unification against Hitler and Japan more than most 'murican war movies ever did. Hell it was call World War 2 for a reason, not just Truman vs. Hitler pt. 1.

AFAIK, CoD1 was the first and only video game back then that showed the war from all sides, not just the American's.

Before that, we had American-centric games like Medal of Honor and BF1942

ClunkerSlim posted...

Im sorry. Just to clarify, what are the ages of everyone involved here?

early twenties. Basically young adults?

I find it funny people in the US would rather talk more about fighting the Nazis in WW2 and taking credit for that than talk about the Pacific War.

In the Pacific War, the US really was indeed the main driving force in defeating the Japanese and literally saving half of Asia from Japanese domination. Do they like...not teach these s*** in school?

I guess using a no longer existent nation like Nazi Germany is far more appropriate and easier to paint as bad guys huh

Lyrica posted...

Why meet up for sex if you don't have a place to have sex? If you don't have your own place or can't afford a cheap motel room, then you shouldn't be meeting up for sex. I don't blame the girl for being uncomfortable.

It was either some random corner in a public park with people walking about or in the toilet.

The motel is definitely the choice I should have made, but yeah... I'm a dumbass for not considering that at all. I didn't even know motels were the norm for hookups.

pojr posted...

seems like the middle of the night was your only one-and-doen shot at making it happen

yeah, I already knew that was my biggest screwup before even meeting her.
She even said she was very tempted and considering leaving the house.

But me being too much of a gentleman decided not to pressure her on it

ooger posted...

Everyone

I guess you can think that if it makes you feel better about yourself.

You still need to be upfront about your living situation from the word go, kiddo.

It's that easy.

dude, I obviously told her I live with my parents. She didnt even have to ask. It's like, pretty common knowledge almost everyone lives with their parents here unless they stay in a school dormitory or something

I was born and raised in the USA, but spent my high school and college days in the Philippines. So, I can personally attest that locals there and neighboring countries really have a hard time making a living from scratch. The foundation for wealth is just so bad... right at the starting point.

Singapore is actually a rich country. But it's not uncommon for a guy to be earning as much as US$100k annually and still be staying with his parents.

Simply because of this housing rule. You aren't allowed to buy your own house unless you get married

haloiscoolisbak posted...

I like to keep things very friendly and light before the first date. It's hard to seamlessly bring sexual tension with a stranger over text to real life. It's good to start from scratch in person. For one thing there's less pressure on the whole situation

I know that but I wasn't treating this as a date. We basically met in slippers and shorts because that's how 'casual' it is.

f***ing hell. And people mocking me for this of all things.

Also huge dump, most people don't own cars here because it's expensive AF. A car in Singapore costs like 10x the cost of that in USA. Like 99% of people at my age that drive can only drive their parent's car because they can't possibly buy their own

You basically can't buy a damn house here unless you're married or you reach the age of 35 because it's practically impossible.

Land is extremely in scarce in Singapore so the government only allows married couples to buy houses unless you're very rich and can buy private property (and by rich, i mean being at least a multi-millionaire)

Some 97 per cent of unmarried people aged 15 to 34 lived with their parents in Singapore, as of 2013, according to the statistics bureau. For married people it was 37 per cent.

For those that think it's weird, welcome to my country. Happy?
