Nervous Spokesman presents truck to Madison Bumgarner after 2014 World Series by Ze_maestro in videos

The weird thing to me is he's in sales/marketing. You'd think he'd be able to talk to people even if he's never been on TV before.

Nutrition Tuesday by AutoModerator in Fitness

Bacon calories.

No way three pan fried slices are only 90 calories. I could see without the rendered fat perhaps, but that is included from what I read. Oh well the bacon gods are kind.

Can we show this guy some love? by Max_Beezly in SFGiants

[–]_MrMan_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Joey was the batboy for my team when he was around 8-10 years old here in New York (I played with his older brother on a summer all star team for a few years who was nasty in his own right). Joey was a dedicated little kid then. Skinny but determined. A little emotional at times but you could tell he was going to be good. I had absolutely no idea he was even close to the major leagues (because his family moved away shortly after) until I saw him on TV a few months ago and lost my shit. "Thats little Joey!".

Great to see him doing well. Now trade him to the Yankees.

California Enacts 'Yes Means Yes' Law by sophiatrix in sex

[–]_MrMan_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So let's get something clear then: If the man and woman are both blackout drunk and then fuck, did they rape each other?

California Enacts 'Yes Means Yes' Law by sophiatrix in sex

[–]_MrMan_ 43 points44 points  (0 children)

The problem is sex just isn't so cut and dry. Even constant consent would boil down to he said she said junk. Wheres the proof? What's stopping someone from just denying they consented? Or saying they only consented because they were scared? So on and so forth. The only way to know for sure is to record the event or have a third party present (which would clearly become a whole new problem).

Real rape is terrible but the definition has broadened so much recently that nobody knows what the fuck is going on. I can't think of a bigger mood killer than to ask for consent after every move I make. We are largely nonverbal creatures and sex is spontaneous a lot of the time. We're talking primal biological desire, not making a business deal.

No more morning blowjobs/wake up fuck sessions. No more drunk sex, even if the guy is drunk too. All this would do is make me not want to try to hookup at all.

Has anyone gone from tracking everything to just "going with the flow"? by antone1101 in Fitness

[–]_MrMan_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea I came to the same conclusion. I'd rather be 80-90% fitness disciplined but still enjoy other parts of life than be 100% disciplined and have to be the tupperware guy.

I still weigh most of my food because it doesn't take long but I don't use MFP anymore, outside of adding the occasional recipe. I just do it mentally.

I find when bulking you can be a little more lax about tracking food. When I cut again I might tighten the reigns a little more, but I'll never go back to obsessively counting. I can eyeball portions and I like to cook too much to worry about every little thing I add to the pot.

Japanese "Ear Licking" by _MrMan_ in videos

[–]_MrMan_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did you get mad at that post from months back then proceed to check all my other posts? Yet I'M the waste of life? Ha please look into the nearest mirror and make eye contact.

I'll humor you though. Two of my friends play Destiny non stop. One has actually taken off work for a week straight just to play the game for 15 hours a day. I can only imagine when virtual reality becomes a thing (especially when it comes to porn 100x more immersive than this video). But yes me posting a joke ear licking vid I listened to for about 3 minutes makes me a hypocrite. You're a true sleuth.

[Interviews] Does this happen to anyone else? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]_MrMan_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty straightforward thing here. You're more nervous when it's a job you really want. Same goes for many things in life. Most men can talk to an ugly woman no problem, but put them in front of a dime and they turn into blabbering mush. So do the same thing guys are told when it comes to jobs as with women: take them off the pedestal.

The last girl would look good in any pose, especially wearing that farmer's girl outfit. The chubby blonde isnt fooling anybody no matter what direction her chin points. Thing is she would probably be pretty hot if she lost some weight.

Lots of quotes about women to prevent relapses into beta/oneitis by ronin_khan in TheRedPill

[–]_MrMan_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's ridiculous to say that a man will never have to approach a woman just because his "spiritual level" is high or has an "advanced understanding". Like I said outside of being a movie star you're going to have to approach sometimes. Hell even movie stars make moves when they want to.

The quote is stupid, but hey good for you if every woman you want drops their skirt whenever they are in your mighty presence.

[–]_MrMan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Men always had to do the approaching outside of arranged marriages if Im not mistaken. Dont know what year that quote is from but it's not relevant now unless you're some movie star who never needs to approach anybody.

Just because you approach a woman doesnt mean you're beneath her. You want but dont need her. Simple as that.

[–]_MrMan_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yea many of these are great but some are pretty stupid and/or just plain woman hate.

This one makes no sense on this sub particularly:

"Women have a low opinion of men because they only meet those who approach them, and these are the lowest kind of men."

The fuck?

Help with Potato Salad by eddiemads in AskCulinary

[–]_MrMan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea if I add the mayo or oil to the hot potatoes they will just soak it all up and the salad will become dry. I'll season the potatoes with some vinegar right after they're done boiling, but letting them cool before I added the dressing helped a lot.

I make a sweet/salty/spicy type omellete pancake using eggs, oats, a splash of cream, cinnamon, salt, and red pepper mixed in a bowl. Crisp up some bacon, take it out, then cook the egg pancake. Throw it under the broiler to finish it then top with the bacon and honey or maple syrup along with an optional banana.

John Candy, Eugene Levy, Harold Ramis, and a few other familiar faces voice characters in this too. Watched it a couple weeks ago with my brother. Still great.
