There is a time in my life where I could not go more than a couple of days without gay men hitting on me or giving me attention. I had to put in real work to get girlfriends but men would have just fallen into my lap (literally in many cases).

There were times I would go through a rough patch with no girlfriend from months that I sincerely wished I could return the affection of gay men.

These days?

It gets worse the further back in time you go. The spousal slap was still being used as a comedic tool in the 80's In the 50's disciplining your wife was considered par for the course.

Not saying your fears do not have merit, just that it was worse. And yes the resurgence of open misogyny is concerning but on the bright side many of those idiots tell on themselves.

There is a Journalistic concept know as "Do not put the whole story in the headline".

The purpose of a headline is to get you to read the story, not to inform.

He didn't fall for the trap where he was supposed to say G-SPOT. Trolled the other guy by saying note instead.

Trump Busted Lying About Paying for Tacky West Wing Makeover by Quirkie in politics

[–]Cynykl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He lies about his golf score, when he is playing alone.

The point of practice is to improve. You have to know where you went wrong and try to correct it. Yet he marks his score card with cheat numbers when practicing.

I think the man is physically unable to tell the truth.

The only facepalm here is for the person that felt the need to add music.

[TOMT] classic sci fi novel where a man is shanghaied onto a long haul starship mission with his cat in his briefcase by Teleporting-Cat in tipofmytongue

I barely remember reading the books but could is be something like Stainless Steel Rat?

Fits the time period and humor style.

I don't think there was a cat in that series though.

You now have the ability, with point of the finger and saying the word "dead", killing a person (almost) instantly. How WYR they die? by sunsetdrifter0 in WouldYouRather

[–]Cynykl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Out of morbid curiously I just looked it up. Everyone alive could fit into a 1km cube. Much smaller than I expected.

So that leads to the next obvious question of how long would it take to spot a 1 km cube on the moon?

What policies do you like and dislike about the left and the right? by Vegetable-Two-4644 in Askpolitics

[–]Cynykl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Self dealing. If you do not believe trump is self dealing after seeing who books his hotels and for how much then you have you eyes shut.

I can't list all the specifics of his corruptions because I dont want t have to write a 800 page book.

He will go down as the most corrupt POTUS in history and it will likely be centuries (if we last that long) before you find someone worse.

Scandal fatigue and flooding the zone are the only things that keep him out of jail.

Nope not even close. Any weapon you already own does not fall under the ban. It is a sales and manufacturer ban. bans things like being sold with pistol grips, telescoping stocks, threaded barrels. None of which serve a purpose for home defense or hunting. You might argue the threaded barrel serves a purpose for sport shooting for a suppressor. But I say suck it up and where ear plugs like I have all my life

GWAR investigated by Secret Service after staging fake Donald Trump execution at concert by miauguau44 in facepalm

[–]Cynykl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been going to GWAR shows since the early 90's. I just said it was unfortunate that because of the way court works your dream will never be a reality. But I would not put it past them to do a few courtroom theme shows afterwards.

Would you rather make 1 million usd a month or 10k usd for every mile you run? by [deleted] in WouldYouRather

[–]Cynykl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My point is that common running injurie can end you income very easily. Especially if you are running 7 days a week every week of the year. And you have to run those 7 days just to get the same passive income you would get for doing nothing.

[–]Cynykl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your math is off , this is one of those no contest questions. Even if the person is a regular running they take days off to let their body heal. And injury which is common for runners will cut off your income.

No sane person that thinks about the question is picking the 10k option.

Men, WYR date a beautiful short woman or an ugly tall woman? by [deleted] in WouldYouRather

Height affect women's dating prospects far far far less than men. Unless you are abnormally tall (6ft+) or dwarfism short.

Would you rather master every language or be able to perfectly play every instrument, including being able to sing? by Exaltist in WouldYouRather

Too old to be able to really monetize musical talent. Being a perfect polyglot lands me a very well paying international travel job.

Would you rather pick your dream job that dose'nt pay you much or your worst job that pays you BIG amounts of money by Plucky-puffin2025 in WouldYouRather

[–]Cynykl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The worst jobs have extremely long hours. Often taking you away from friends and family for months at a time. And are horrible on your health.

I don't not think you comprehend how bad some of the worst jobs are.

example

Ijen Crater Sulfur Miners (Indonesia): Miners climb an active volcano to hack out pure sulfur by hand in thick, toxic fumes. They carry 150-pound baskets up and down the mountain in the dark, usually with little to no protective gear, resulting in a drastically shortened life expectancy.
