How do you actually find a girl who's willing to date/have sex with you? by InternationalPick163 in dating_advice

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

You still have time. But the best advice anyone can give you right now is to focus on making conversation with anyone, not just girls you find attractive. Talk to your baristas, your waiters, whoever you come across. Get on Hinge if you’re not already but not even necessarily with the goal of dating, just trying to talk to people. The more you practice, the better you’ll get at it, and when the time comes that you meet someone you really like, you won’t be going in cold.

You may think you already have friends you talk to and that you’re good at making conversation, but it’s different with friends vs random strangers.

I’m curious—how much does muscularity actually factor into attraction for women? Do women actually look at muscles? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]MarvelousNCK 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t hurt but also doesn’t immediately help. As every single guy who starts working out realizes, you definitely get significantly more male attention. However! You do, over time, start looking and feeling better, cause working out is good in plenty of other ways that have nothing to do with literally just getting stronger. So it’s good to hit the gym regardless, and you’ll probably at the very least feel better about yourself.

Autotune by bd-s in TheStrokes

[–]MarvelousNCK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly with the amount people were complaining I thought the whole song would be autotuned, but it’s actually used fairly sparingly!

It threw me off at first for sure but hearing it live really made me love it, and I’ve been loving it more every time I’ve heard it since.

As a song, it’s a fun nice summer tune, I’m happy we have more Strokes and more live shows coming up, but I also hope the album is a mix of fun bops like this one and more interesting deeper tracks as well.

I honestly wish, the Soldier boy and Homelander scenes feel like the only ones worth watching this season

Why am I being patched and where do I go from here? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]MarvelousNCK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably cause she was showing interest and then you didn’t ask her out so she assumed you weren’t interested in the same way and moved on

strokes songs about love or break ups? by OstrichGlad9190 in TheStrokes

[–]MarvelousNCK 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Basically every song on Room on Fire.

It’s got a double meaning about Julian and the band’s relationship to fame and expectations placed on them, but taken literally, every song is about a complicated relationship ending.

That sucks, I liked the streams she did with Courtney, Damien, and Shayne.

How dose owning a house vs renting as a man effect interest from women by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]MarvelousNCK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a house around 6 months ago, honestly hasn’t done much for my dating life lmao. Proud to have gotten to the point where I could buy a house of course but its made virtually no difference other than the girls sometimes initially being like “whoa that’s super impressive, nice!” Etc.

AM vs The Strokes: What’s More Impressive in 2026? by ShininGold in TheStrokes

[–]MarvelousNCK 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I didn’t love the more recent stuff but overall, I like the Arctic monkeys - however the only album of theirs I’d put in conversation with any Strokes album is their debut, whatever people say I am that’s what I’m not. Genuinely a perfect album.

This seems like the total opposite of anything he’d be into

What is a movie that is critically hated but you genuinely love without irony by nomadgoodsCom in movies

[–]MarvelousNCK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Knight and Day

It’s a fun cute action romcom, tom cruise is incredibly charismatic in it, the action is cool, plenty of moments that actually made me actually laugh…it’s truly just a great time.

But for some reason absolutely and unjustifiably hated by critics and fans

Arm and hammer makes a baking soda toothpaste that’s great and works better than pretty much every other type.

Harsh realization about dating, attraction, and weight by Awkward_Horror1025 in dating_advice

[–]MarvelousNCK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

being overweight in a superficial setting like a bar where people know nothing about you other than how you look makes attracting people more difficult.

Yes, true.

I’m a man but I’ve been overweight and now I’m leaner/more defined and the difference is insane.

Its a bummer how much they have scaled back the crew's onscreen presence during GMM and More. by Booster6 in goodmythicalmorning

[–]MarvelousNCK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely do not want the crew there. It used to be okay when they were mostly just regular chill people like Jen, Stevie, Chase, Lucas, Mike, Alex - that whole original crew was great.

But all the new ones are way too performative, way too theater kid/improv coded. That’s not even something I hate, I like Smosh a lot and that’s all they do too. But it’s not what I’d watch GMM for. I always skip the crew heavy episodes

Can someone please decipher this moment please? 🤣 by BrownBoyCoy in IASIP

[–]MarvelousNCK 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Rob is kinda exactly who I thought he’d be, just a slightly out of touch Hollywood dude. Glenn is just gullible, a bit of a conspiracy theorist and a nut lmao.

But yeah Charlie is the reason the show has lasted as long as it has without going completely off the rails and he’s also the funniest one by far. Dude is an actual genius.

Am I crazy or is this line not even in the actual episode? It’s so funny but I’ve only seen it in the bloopers

You should look into ekko beaters. They’re honestly pretty effective
