       So you want to attract women? In order:>Be white>Stop masturbating>Avoid estrogens>Lift weights>Get a productive hobby>Develop positive sociopathy/charisma>Try to look like somebody that people would actually want to be around (not difficult)>Bully women while smiling and laughing so they see it as affectionateIt's really that easy, guys.

       @eternalclassic No if they're anything like me then they're already sociopaths but they need to learn how to turn that into something good. If they're not anything like me, they won't understand that advice anyway.

       @WoodshopHandman I'm on board with all of those but I think the whole anti-jacking movement is strange. Moderation in salami slapping, as with everything else in life.

       @WoodshopHandman @ConfederateHobo Chicken and egg. Part of becoming healthy, well-adjusted, and happy involves having that which you're talking about. Men were never meant to live into their thirties without gf's or wives. Uncharted ground.

       @FirebrandJay @BigDuck @WoodshopHandman Cheetos are just fried cornmeal, making that concoction essentially spicy macaroni with polenta. Weird to mix carbs like that, kind of a mongaloid thing. Like noodle sandwiches or bean and rice tortillas.

       @WhiteTemplar You make fun of them the same way you would make fun of one of your bros just with less explicit content and interspersed half-sarcastic compliments added to the mix so they can't tell if you're interested in them or not which makes them crave your validation. That's as far as I'll go into it because I think PUA shit is gay af.

       @ConfederateHobo That's why I harp so hard on not being defeatist or depressed or "blackpilled" and finding beauty and joy around you instead. You're only here once and you're here for a reason. God gave you life and if you don't find intrinsic positive value in that, you're going to seem ungrateful, you know.

       @WoodshopHandman Hits of dopamine, I guess - I like cigars too, even though they serve no practical purpose. As long as having a bash doesn't serve as a surrogate healthy relationship, I don't see a problem with it.

       @WoodshopHandman @ConfederateHobo "JUST BE HAPPY"Wish you'd said that first so I could've stopped reading there. What you said about women could be said of anything that men have always have and have evolved to need. No vitamin D? Just be happy. No parents? Just be happy. No job? Just be happy. No nation? Just be happy. No purpose? JUST BE FUCKING HAPPY.Coldest take I've ever read from you.

       @RustySpoon @ConfederateHobo I don't like using buzzwords and meme terms, but this is exactly what learned helplessness is. You CAN actively choose to be happy. Sometimes it's harder than others, but generally it's not that hard to do. Life is worth living, otherwise we wouldn't be alive, and that's really all that you should need.

       @WoodshopHandman I do not regard the field of psychology as actual science, because they vote on diagnosed illnesses like a democracy instead of having replicable experiments, which is impossible without proper control groups (they'd have to have clones raised in identical circumstances or something). Case in point; trannies and fags are now not mental illnesses according to their new-'n'-improved DSM bible. Imagine thinking it's normal to want to fuck your own gender or chop your genitals off.Regardless, it's not even really a regular thing for me - I just don't see it as an issue unless you're sitting around fapping your days away like a loser.

       @nwordnorton @WoodshopHandman We get it, you really want other guys to jerk off like you do. Sorry, buddy, but it’s just no good! Don’t do it!

       @FirebrandJay @nwordnorton @WoodshopHandman Why on earth would ejaculation, the biological mechanism of the reproductive act, be unhealthy for the hormone balance of the male? This doesn't remotely make sense

       @WoodshopHandman @FirebrandJay @nwordnorton Yeah I don't even remotely believe chimps in the jungle don't jerk off either but ok.

       @WoodshopHandman @RustySpoon @ConfederateHobo Most people assume they're only one step away from being happy.  "If only I had this fancy new toy.  If only I went on this fun trip.  If only I made more money."It's true one should seek to improve both himself and the world (don't become complacent), but part of that involves  recognizing you already have the power to find happiness around you.It's one thing to say "I'm thankful" in a prayer, but I think it's meaningless if you aren't actually finding joy in the things you claim to be thankful for.  Joy is a necessary part of thanks.
