In what ways are you absolutely the stereotype?
Men never get compliments.
I’ve gotten a few here and there. It wasn’t an everyday thing until I got with my now-wife. Now we call each other hot all the time.
I compliment my friends. So, some men get compliments :)
I totally do.
The owner of a previous company I worked for once called me “a long haired, pot smoking hippie” and I can’t say he was too far off the mark.
Thats just an accurate description (apparently) there has to be more to this… do you own any lava lamps? Tie dyed t-shirts? HOW MANY PHISH CONCERTS HAVE YOU BEEN TO!?!
Well, the long hair part is the only descriptive part of that, as I am very conscientious about the smell (never came anywhere near my work gear) and I didn’t make a point to talk about my politics or views on gardening and shit in the work place, so guessing 2/3 ain’t bad based on the one feature.
Well, I’m a trans lady and I’m in the middle of a comp sci degree, so…
And yet, your post history shows no sign of pictures of your socks. Curious.
Well you’ve clearly not found my other account.
Which, uh… Doesn’t exist. Yeah.
You know how you occasionally see articles about the male loneliness epidemic? Hi, that’s me. Haven’t spent more than a week around people in person in close to 5 years despite livingright next to a big city, struggling with depression and social anxiety, starved for physical and emotional affection but can’t bring myself to do anything about it, yeah. Snuggled and slept with an ace friend overnight on a couch at a big get together and it sent me into a massive depressive spiral! You know this meme?
Yeah that’s me. I’m definitely not an incel, I’m self aware and not entitled, the only thing holding me back is me and my stupid fucking brain. There’s hope, antidepressants and therapy have been helping a lot. I just feel like the posterchild for the struggling, lonely but not “redpill nutjob” guys out there

I’m a leftist and I spend way too much time arguing with people who were never going to listen to me anyway.
If you convince even just one person to change their mind to be more tolerant, you did more than most people.
Long periods of depression and brief periods of high productivity.
Millennial?
Bipolar, being a millennial doesn’t help either.
I’m good at this minus the productivity part 😎
Politically Incorrect.
Well, I’m a software developer who knows way more about science fiction and fantasy than I really should, and if you get me drunk I’ll probably tell you all about how Sauron is an ainur and therefore didn’t actually die when the One Ring was destroyed - since the ainur can’t die - but he did lose all his power and henceforth existed perpetually as a powerless and intangible shadow…
And when you wake up, I might still be talking.
And here I thought he was Maiar.
Oh, he is. The Maiar are “lesser Ainur” in Tolkien’s cosmology. They’re “of the same order as the Valar but of less degree.” “Ainur” is kind of an umbrella term, the way “angel” is in Christianity.
Melkor, now known as Morgoth after being cast out, was once a Valar, but his cruelty and evil make him the foe of all of Arda. Mairon, a Maiar of Aulë, actually started down his own path of evil as a lieutenant of Morgoth, becoming Sauron.
Sleepy yet?
No, and I already knew all of this. Spend some time in jail with the Silmarillion, and you’ll know all the names. 🤣
Lol! Yeah, I can imagine. But for me, I didn’t need the boredom of jail to read the Silmarillion.
I do for the sake of straight up studying it which seems like the proper way to go about it.
hm I’ve never thought abt it that way :)
Yeah, but the eagles!!!
Pakistani guy who loves his spicy food. I keep a bottle of crushed red peppers in the break room at work for when the boss orders pizza for the office.
I am a software developer and gamer who lives in his mother’s basement and watches anime.
In my defense: I am in the process of buying my own house, I practice good hygiene, and I do have a social life (unlike a stereotypical basement-dweller). I have no excuse for the anime, that’s on me.
What’s wrong with the anime?
It’s anime.
That’s unfair. I can say the same to people who watch “silly” sitcoms
Anime is still worse.
OK bro
Then say it. That’s how opinions work.

Silly sitcoms are silly because they’re sitcoms. There, I said it.
But fr tho I am so not a fan of laugh tracks.
The only show I can stand with a laugh track is HIMYM. That’s about it.

I am a woman and I will make nests out of pillows at every given opportunity.
I’m for it. Let’s trade notes.
The secret is many pillows. Many different pillows of many different shapes and densities and materials. Different fillings. And then, you have to experiment by placing them all around you in ways that feel comfy. But once you find a comfy situation, you don’t give up then, oh no. You must keep rotating until you find the ideal situation.
It may turn out that you need more pillows. But that’s just how it goes.
My secret trick is that once you are well coated in pillows, you bring in a blanket or two, bunch them all up, and use them as pillows.
Oh, I know all about using blankets as pillows when there aren’t enough pillows around. And sometimes when there are.
I wear leather jackets with metal band T-shirts and jeans and am covered in scars and tattoos.
I’m basically the spitting image of what mothers tell their children to avoid looking like
But are you also a softie with a heart of gold, or are you actually worth warning my kids about?
Both. I’ll protect your kids with my life but they’re gonna learn a few new words
Duly noted.
Kids, that weird guy is going to educate you, so listen closely.
I’m a non-binary, vegan, theatre school drop-out. I dye my hair a new colour every couple of weeks, my main means of transportation is a bicycle, and I’m currently unemployed but my last job was as a barista. Oh and I’ve read some Marx unironically.
I’m basically a right-winger’s caricature of “a goddamn librul”.
I’m in love
Do you wear cat ears? Lol
Sounds like I’d get along with ya.
Beer lover with very big beer belly. And extremely snobbish about craft beer.
