In what ways are you absolutely the stereotype?
Im approaching 40 and instead of buying a sportscar and fucking a coworker, I started working out and shaving my head.
Millennials can’t afford mid-life crises :(
That’ll just make the coworker come to you.
NGL, even if I were single id pass on all of them.
I like to joke to my wife that my end goal with the gym is to be the “hot dad” at school drop off to a degree that my wife doesnt want me doing it in case one of the thirsty ass single moms decides she wants to throw it at me.
Exactly, just let him cook for a little while.

Seconded, except from the superheroes. I do, however have long hair (roughly 19", 4U). Unfortunately I don’t have the necessary beard growth to match it.

Use material components to remove hair and place it on your chin

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 live in a very politically left and hippie part of my city, and my city is one of the most left-leaning and hippie in my country, and my country is very left and hippie compared to a lot of the world. And I’m very politically left-leaning and hippie.
I often get compliments about my clothes and style, which is mainly 60s-70s hippie-ish and when people ask where I’m from I usually say “I think you can guess” and they mostly get it right.
I love to make fun of myself in this way, being fully aware of what stereotypes you are closest to and owning it. I’m proud of my morals, ethics, choices and tastes.
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.
The unintentionally quiet one while everyone else takes the stage.
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.
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 Scottish man that likes whisky, haggis, and beer and I actually do own and wear (at the right occasions) a kilt. Unfortunately I balance it out by having an accent from a different part of the country to the one that adds about a dozen extra syllables to “purple burglar alarm”
I’m hearing something like “puerrrapleuh buerrragluerrr alarrrum.” Do I have that about right?
It’s actually only two extra vowels
Purple burgulur alarum
That’s also the same reason there are no Scottish guys called Carl
Frankly I think we should call up the International Phonetic Association and tell them that you’ve developed a better transcription system than their alphabet
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.
hm I’ve never thought abt it that way :)
Yeah, but the eagles!!!
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.
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.
Can’t jump, can’t dance, but I’m ok at swimming.
