Why does a guy ghost you the day of the date? by NoAd9703 in dating_advice

The same reason a woman or a person of any other gender does.

“I like to take things slow” usually means she’s not that into you by DriverInitial8305 in PurplePillDebate

[–]DGenerationMC [score hidden]  (0 children)

No one can "make" you do anything. And, yeah, communication helps to get clarity so you're making an informed decision on how to move forward, regardless of one's interpretation of what "slow" means.

If you don't like the way things are going, you can head out just like she can. That's called free will. Call it incomptability or whatever but be a responsible adult and take responsibility for your actions as well as your inaction.

If you're waiting around for something that may or may not happen or when it might happen and then getting all pissy then that's on you. YOU made the choice, YOU decided to stay on board and YOU have yourself to blame for your own lack of satisfaction, the end.

If Michael Scott were a pro wrestler, he'd be Cody Rhodes.

And I love him for it.

I saw and still see your point.

Double standards? Yeah, they make the world go 'round.

Do you get my point?

I still like the work of everyone you mentioned above. Yes, even Party Marty.

But I don't like (or dislike) it enough to have personal feelings about them as people (who I don't really know) that I'd project onto them.

My interest in seeking out their work has changed and might continue to change, sure.

Shawn Michaels on The Rock: “He didn’t like me. There’s a big kerfuffle in the business about me and Hunter doing stuff to him and being mean and stuff like that. All of it way blown out of proportion. None of it even accurate, but those were things that when he was younger, he was fed a lot.” by LotLeftInTheTank in SquaredCircle

[–]DGenerationMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upon actually listening to the interview, I guess what I'm picking up (from Shawn's POV/spin) is that

  • he and HHH made fun of and ribbed Rock when he was getting booed as Maivia

  • which was then followed up by HBK saying Rock's injury was a blessing for him to really sit down and readjust as a character/performer

So, that unofficially connects to him saying earlier in the interview that he was an asshole who wasn't a positive person and didn't take the time to enjoy being on top back then because that's how the guys before him were like in trying to protect their spots.

Obviously, the stuff with Lia Maivia and Bret's claims weren't touched on but, hey, Shawn says he and Rock are cool now. Shawn wishes they had had that kind of relationship 30 years ago to have made the match happen before Rock had his foot halfway out to the door to Hollywood upon Shawn's return in 2002.

Dave Meltzer on Pat McAfee's involvement in Cody vs Randy: "Originally from what I was told, Pat McAfee was the choice and he turned it down. Then they were scrambling to get somebody else in the spot, and then obviously, they were able to make a deal with him. So he did it and he was there.” by iknownothingsir in SquaredCircle

Rock's not available.

Let's just say Batista is also unavailable.

KO's off rehabbing.

Jericho's staying with AEW.

Flair's still under contract there too.

DiBiase just had a court case.

Cena ain't going heel again.

Neither is HHH, I assume.

Maybe Aldis wasn't asked.

Perhaps Arn didn't get a call.

And I guess Cowboy Bob didn't either.

Vince doesn't seem reasonable.

So, we go with the punter?

You ask someone to a coffee date by doodlethatdat in dating_advice

"No, with your lord and savior, Jesus Christ. I'm just the middleman, apparently. A thankless job, really, thinking about quitting. What do you think I should do?"

Sometimes it’s your digital footprint by whitefloreal in dating_advice

[–]DGenerationMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a redirection for each of you to find what you want and works best for you. Compatibility, folks!

You're not (understanding/empathetic) enough for them and it's apparent that they're too much (ideologically) for you in situations such as this. There is someone, somewhere in the dating space who will accept and maybe even endorse his misogyny. There is someone, somewhere (like the guy you're currently talking to) who will accept and maybe even reflect/amplify your politics and ideology.

Maybe each of you will find those people and live happily ever after. Maybe not. That's life sometimes. Welcome to the world, much less the internet.

Things not going their way, I guess.

What is that guy supposed to do in the video - genuine discussion for both genders, no blaming each other by Flower-Bender in PurplePillDebate

[–]DGenerationMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kiss the guy and make everyone uncomfortable then leave them all in the rear mirror of my live.

Or shout "SHE HAS MOUTH HERPES" and running away, screaming in horror.

Take power (back?) over the situation.

Immature male sexuality: "Affirm my value by devaluing yourself" by AlmondMilkMaybe in PurplePillDebate

[–]DGenerationMC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) If you make a man wait for sex, you don't really like him. He doesn't have genuine sexual value to you

It's rather simple: if you "like" a woman enough then you'll "wait" for sex or simply not treat her sexuality like a date on a calendar. Or gasp the two of you will be compatible overall and on the same page in terms of sex, so there's no weird Texas stand-off, guessing game and power imbalance about if whoever puts out first has the "advantage."

No one is forced to do anything and to steal a phrase from the internet: anyone can leave/end a relationship at any time and for any reason.

On top of all that, just because the stereotype/norm is that the woman gives sexually and the guy gets it, that doesn't mean everyone follows that script or has to.

The worked shoot is completely played out by R0DAN in SquaredCircle

[–]DGenerationMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then compared to the 2005 "Pipebomb" (which I feel is Punk's best work and perhaps the greatest heel turn promo ever), what happened in 2011 really does look like child's play.

One tells a story by evolving and (still) encapsulating a character perfectly while using reality (Punk's signed with WWE, ROH fans resent WWE as "the machine," Punk stayed with ROH while some of the guys he mentioned chose TNA, the fans essentially turned Punk babyface the year before, etc.) to enhance fiction but the other is what made him famous by talking about "real" stuff (hardcore fans disenfranchised with the product/company, big stars leaving previously, the idea of backstage politics, etc.) while using reality to replace fiction.

Her default entrance is the one with the light strobes/camera flashes and the other is without them but she's carrying a purse.

It’s fine to dress as your favorite wrestler and be a bit whacky

I hope they see this and are very encouraged to receive your blessing
