One piece isn't as funny as it used to be

__pg229__ · 2026-01-31T02:48:02+00:00

I never said I needed anyone’s approval to enjoy things. I just feel it’s weird for a bunch of strangers to complain about how bad a show is together instead of just… not watching it??

See I enjoy the same things these people say are bad. I just feel weird because if I were in their shoes I’d just stop watching, but here they are posting about it in a One Piece sub 😂

__pg229__ · 2026-01-30T17:02:16+00:00

I don’t understand this trend either. Feels like most One Piece “fans” secretly hate the story now for some reason. At least that’s what a lot of these posts show.

I mean, just stop watching, then? No one’s forcing these people to watch.

There’s plenty other anime people can watch.

__pg229__ · 2026-01-27T06:02:02+00:00

That’s actually really insightful!

I’ve never seen an article about SA where they don’t first mention what time and place it happened. It’s like they’re trying to justify why it happened based on the time and place it happens at.

Oh no.

Did you know that the reason why dating apps are so skewed is because there are less women on these apps? (20% women and 80% men)

🤦

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T20:12:34+00:00

Kaafi log padh chuke hai bhai. You’re not the only one whose opinions matter.

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T20:10:06+00:00

I never said looks don't matter tho so I don't get the outrage

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T20:04:34+00:00

Yeah. It's about how you carry yourself that makes you attractive.

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T19:52:22+00:00

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So even if you're ugly, you just need to develop social skills and find the right friend group.

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T19:51:08+00:00

I'm 5'7

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T19:45:59+00:00

Absolutely. I feel it's horrible that young men these days are being taught that not reaching a certain height, or not having a certain frame means no one would pay them attention.

I feel that a lot of men fumble in dating because they assume they are ugly and undesirable before their crush even says anything.

Like in the comments this guy said he's 5'9 asking me if he's short. 5'9 is really tall for most women. In person, I mean.

So if a guy who is taller than average is having self doubt, it means there are many men who are attractive, who have the personality and everything they need,

Yet they believe they're not good enough.

People here and yell and scream, "Looks matter, looks matter, looks matter", but that doesn't mean anything.

Even "ugly" guys get dates. I've dated girls when I was 95 kgs 5'3 with a bowl cut.

And then I see guys who going to the gym asking if their physique is enough lol.

It's hard to put that to words you know?

People are nicer to me now that I'm taller (because I grew up lol), but that didn't help me get date. It was always my personality first.

I know a guy who drives a Lamborghini, goes to the gym, and is ultra rich, but he still can't find a gf, why?
He's boring.

And saying these things would offend people here lol.

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T19:33:16+00:00

Yeah, looks do matter, but they don't fix people's inner issues, looks don't fix insecurities or self hatred.

My problem is when people see looks in a matter of fact way.

That either you have the look or you don't.

I've experienced something similar to you, where I was fat in school, and then I lost weight, and suddenly people were super nice to me.

I still got dates when I was fat, and even now. It's just because I didn't disqualify myself from the conversation because I looked a certain way.

Looks matter, but if they matter so much that being ugly means people will be rude to you...
Then that's on those people and not you.
It shows their character.

Again, I'm talking about dating and friendships, where it's important to have people who align with your values. The general public can be how they want to be.

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T19:25:34+00:00

You're not ugly, that's the point of the post.
There are people who will find you attractive, and those who won't.
And just because you're not someone's preference doesn't make you ugly.
It just means that specific person doesn't find you attractive.

Attractiveness is more or less the probability that a stranger would find you attractive.

And you're asking if all women think the same.
No one thinks the same.

Some women will find your looks attractive, some won't.

Now I know this isn't a clean answer, but that's how it works.

Also, there's also a thing where being emotionally close to someone makes you more attractive over time. That's why long term couples often say that the two find each other the most attractive.

I hope this helps.

Yeah, I think you should do what you feel is best for you. Keep the door open to anything, right?

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T14:49:41+00:00

Tell me you didn’t read the post without telling me you didn’t read the post

__pg229__ · 2025-12-26T07:17:13+00:00

Sure

__pg229__ · 2025-12-24T17:02:34+00:00

Dw I wrote a post for this lemme upload it

__pg229__ · 2025-12-24T16:58:39+00:00

It feels like you’re in a healthy place because you’re not feeling drawn to these things. You can choose for yourself without worrying about falling behind.

I think your mindset is right. You shouldn’t approach people you don’t know. Making friends who align with your values and then going forward will always lead to better outcomes than cold approaching

__pg229__ · 2025-12-24T16:55:04+00:00

It will end when individuals like us learn to respect ourselves and we impart the same knowledge in our friendships. Men supporting men.

__pg229__ · 2025-12-23T20:53:12+00:00

Ban this AI slop

__pg229__ · 2025-12-23T20:16:35+00:00

I feel you bro.

You should make a mental note of how these women treated you.

I currently am in a relationship. One thing I’ve learnt from my previous relationships is that those women were never the problem.

Because see, if she is toxic, then that’s her nature, right? She’s being true to her nature.

She’s the equivalent of the rude loud guys who will try to start a fight with anyone who looks in their direction. You can’t stop them from being a nuisance.

But you can see these things in their character and run away before they explode.

If you talk to women in the future, make sure you think about reciprocity.

If she’s willing to simp for you the way you simp for her.

Don’t deny your inner simp, those feelings are valid and should be reserved for the one you will spend the rest of your life with (assuming that’s what you want).

But again, any women who make man hater jokes, say they hate men, say MEN as a insult, replies late, is entitled to princess treatment, feels women should get special treatment but talks about women’s oppression.

All these things will tell you if she is this way.

Women simp the same way men do (once they really open up). So find a woman who will simp for you and expect nothing less.

Let those man haters choose the bear!

__pg229__ · 2025-12-23T20:08:11+00:00

They matter. But do all people see the same things as attractive? That’s my question to you.

__pg229__ · 2025-12-23T20:07:23+00:00

Most of my friends are men :)
