Merus Posted July 4, 2014 I know literally nothing about "pick-up artists" and assumed that was just a derogatory term like "player." Oh man, that means you don't know about negging! That's when you use backhanded compliments and subtle insults to "play hard-to-get" (wear down their self-esteem) so they're more likely to sleep with you! One of my housemates was a pickup artist, and I will always remember the time I mentioned I was heading over to my friend Belinda's house and he couldn't process that someone I wanted to hang out with was named Belinda.

Gormongous Posted July 4, 2014 One of my housemates was a pickup artist, and I will always remember the time I mentioned I was heading over to my friend Belinda's house and he couldn't process that someone I wanted to hang out with was named Belinda. At first, I thought your anecdote made no sense because there's no correlation between being a PUA and thinking Belinda is a silly-sounding name. But yeah, PUA stuff is real and bizarre. Having read most of The Game at the price of my immortal soul, there's no better way to summarize it than the argument that women are deterministic sex-machinery that will be forced to sleep with you, against their instincts and even their will, if you find the right combination of inputs. I am more than a little bit terrified of a worldview like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roswell47 Posted July 14, 2014 The cover for Ted Nugent's new album is incredible. It's like one of those three wolf moon shirts but with four Nugents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SecretAsianMan Posted July 31, 2014 What's freaking me out is that the inanimate objects also have faces on them with the same fidelity of the humans. It would be like a real baby holding a rattle with a tiny realistic human face on it instead of a cartoon smile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SecretAsianMan Posted August 4, 2014 I know it's not the intent, but I can't help reading that and in my head hearing someone doing a very stereotypical Asian accent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
