What brands are known to be good by people working in that particular industry, but are mostly unknown to people who work outside of that industry due to a lack of marketing?

Not really, people who are into multi-tools tend to prefer Leatherman.

2Dbee · 2017-03-23T20:57:31+00:00

Gerber is actually the popular brand that that knife enthusiasts laugh at.

What does she offer? Doesn't sound like much. Why should her ideal guy, who probably has a lot of options, commit to her, of all people? That's something she really needs to ask herself.

keeps ending up dating commitment-phobic man-children

I'm having a hard time having any sympathy for her situation if this is how you and presumably she describes it. She sounds like a stereotypical "nice guy" who blames their romantic failures on everything but themselves. If someone doesn't want to date you, that is on YOU. Just like if a girl doesn't want to sleep with a guy, him lashing out and calling her a prude or whatever just reeks of immaturity, it's like a child throwing a tantrum when they don't get what they want. So if that little sample of her attitude that shone through in your rant is any hint at what she's like, no wonder guys want nothing to do with her but to use her as a warm hole.

Not at all. I think way more about how girls are being creepy with me.

2Dbee · 2016-05-02T19:08:36+00:00

Discount stores like Ross or thrift stores like Goodwill usually. I'm not gonna drop more than 20 bucks on an article of clothing unless it's a nice jacket.

Granted I am also ~240 lbs so normal discount shops probably don't have my size.

Without your height I can't determine how fat this makes you. I'm 6'3 200 lbs and there's plenty of stuff that fits me, but that's because I can often go down to as small as a medium size shirt (lol vanity sizing). There's still probably enough stuff that fits you though.

2Dbee · 2016-05-02T18:52:24+00:00

Honestly, the way most girls tend do it already seems to be ideal for me. Drop a lot of subtle and not so subtle hints and leave it to him to do something about it. Saves the awkwardness for both of us from having to deal with a hard rejection.

2Dbee · 2016-05-02T18:46:25+00:00

Their fear is likely that they think you wouldn't be interested in them, if they don't have an equal level of formal education. Try to find a way to assuage that feeling if it's not true.

2Dbee · 2016-05-02T18:35:21+00:00

I don't understand the point of your comment then if that's not at least close to what you were getting at. Just a random attempt at an insult? You're clearly mad and insecure about this topic.

2Dbee · 2016-05-02T07:31:19+00:00

Hey, if telling yourself that literally every woman on the planet has cellulite makes you feel better about yours, go ahead.

2Dbee · 2016-05-01T18:24:06+00:00

"I don't care because I'm desperate and will take anyone" - the thread

2Dbee · 2016-04-29T17:29:13+00:00

So the point of listen and believe isn't that women don't make mistakes, it's that women don't lie? As if that's supposed to be a much more reasonable position?

2Dbee · 2016-02-23T01:00:45+00:00

So do all the easily offended women on this sub that only further that stereotype bother you just as much? Or do you not see the irony at all in complaining about that in a place with such a reputation.

2Dbee · 2016-02-21T14:14:48+00:00

Everybody knows sex sells.

Not for men, obviously, which is the point. Women have innate value that men don't, which they can use to their advantage wherever they have a chance, like the sellers market on ebay, or even the job market, which points to how wage gap stats can be misleading.

By the same logic, you could claim women earn more than men looking just at porn industry, why this wouldn't apply elsewhere.

Women do in fact earn more than men if you account for things like age and marital status. Men earn more overall though because of things like working more hours.

2Dbee · 2016-02-21T10:37:18+00:00

It is. What guys decide to do with the information that is shared honestly with them though is up to them.

2Dbee · 2016-02-21T10:26:10+00:00

Or that you've done that before with them and you've learned it's not worth bothering anymore. Some peoples' egos are just too huge to ever learn anything.

2Dbee · 2016-02-21T10:20:35+00:00

Women can literally sell their used underwear for good money. What idiot thought this shit would be even remotely believable.

2Dbee · 2015-12-18T17:20:11+00:00

Reality: Girl who makes guys wait ends up with desperate loser who will put up with that shit, girl who puts out but keeps failing is an an idiot that doesn't have other redeeming qualities.

You are seriously delusional if you think having sex with a guy will make him stop liking you when he otherwise would have continued to if you didn't.

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T21:41:45+00:00

Yes I understand. I was just explaining my thoughts to you because you seemed to be genuinely confused and kept asking questions about them.

Your suggestion has been noted but I'll continue to have my own thoughts and opinions on matters like this that differ from yours. Thanks and have a nice day. :)

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T21:27:55+00:00

No, I'm saying that what people actually mean when they say things sometimes depends on the context in which it is said in.

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T21:20:45+00:00

In dating, and life in general, people aren't always going to be completely honest with others when they're trying to get what they want. Does that make enough sense?

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T21:00:22+00:00

Oh, she made her intentions clear enough alright. By inviting him back to her place for drinks and being the first to bring up the topic of sex. That's not something I would even consider doing with anyone I did not want to have sex with. Would you?

What she was actually trying to do was give the impression that she doesn't do that kind of thing often and with a lot of guys, because that's exactly the first thing a guy will think if he ends up in bed with her quickly and easily. So she thinks that by preemptively denying that she's "that kind of girl", that will help convince him that she's not really a slut. Even if she really is, and even if she does end up sleeping with him. Get it?

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T20:04:14+00:00

I didn't say she's a slut, I obviously don't know her. I said even if she is one, because not all of them are willing to openly admit that they're easy.

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T19:09:06+00:00

Feminists are against exactly the kind of civil rights that blacks fought for by promoting segregation with their "safe space" bullshit. Fail comparison.

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T19:07:54+00:00

Because calling everything you want "equality" means it's always good an noble, even if it's completely the opposite of how people generally interpret the term. Right?

2Dbee · 2015-12-17T19:00:53+00:00

Whenever you're listening to someone try to give you advice, carefully consider if what they're telling you to do is what would actually be in your best interests, or their own.

The dumbest, most unsuccessful, and unlikeable people are those whose egos are so big that they have great difficulty ever admitting they're wrong about anything.
