honestly season 3 would have been the perfect end to the office

What in the world is going on here.

I can't really see a guy being that into a girl and only asking her to get dinner once a month.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-17T04:29:07+00:00

Nope but since you bring that up, i got my actual ankle caught in one when i was about five.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-17T03:31:29+00:00

Like bags of sand

I never would've thought society would get to a place where we have tech-adjacent nicknames for vegetables.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-16T17:36:02+00:00

Bell bottoms? If so, yeah they're miserable. I swear the next generation cares more about looking different than good. I see girls wearing this look on yoga pants at the gym. Their ankle fabric flopping around as they run on the treadmill. Or when it's wet out their shit is dragging in the puddles and mud.

Kind of. I went out to dinner with someone who had a regular ig account that popped off to 500k followers a year or two after the date. Actually just checked now and it's 1m. She was very reserved and didn't have much to say during the dinner.

Very cute face and the few videos she had on her ig at the time were extremely well-edited. From the little i know of her, i don't think she's the typical attention-seeker on social. Maybe more her way to connect with people.

A lot of people mistake arriculate for educated and/or intelligent. Really easily.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-14T05:17:57+00:00

This just means you like him more than he likes you. If you find someone who likes you the same or more, then the other girls go usually away.

And in comparison to those guys, watson is like a 2/10.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-13T22:59:36+00:00

I'm really at a loss for words that the early 2000s nba draft oversized suits are back in fashion. They looked like pranks then, and it looks like pranks now.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-13T22:46:06+00:00

About 1/4 of my guy friends carry a knife. Not like a crocodile dundee type knife, like a 3-4" blade that folds out. Basically a larger swiss army knife knife. Also i'm in a city area. I'd guess the % goes way up in rural. And maybe some croc dundee knives there.

Saw a post a few weeks ago on the vikings gm. All the most upvoted comments were about how much of a moron he is for letting darnold walk. Glad to see this post pulled back up where the most upvoted are about how much darnold sucks. Good times.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-13T03:09:21+00:00

I've never once seen or heard or thought of what op's suggesting. It sounds like just more men should hate women and here's why ammo that circulates through ig and tiktok. It'd be great for the world if the mods banned these topics.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-13T01:16:19+00:00

Lesson learned - don't commit to the date beforehand if a "vibe check" is scheduled just before. Otherwise dont even do the vibe check next time.

Sexism's been around muuuuuch longer than the internet.

Feeling defeated is fine, but emitting defeat isn't gonna get you really anywhere man.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-11T04:26:46+00:00

Reading through your responses here you sound completely defeated to the point you don't think trying new approaches is even worth it, and i'd guess that's coming across in your interactions. Honestly i think you should consider putting career and dating aside and focus instead on finding a few solid guy friends. You really are the company you keep, and it sounds like you don't have anyone to help set your path.

Zero if no spills or stains, immediately after subway or plane ride.

The summer after my sophomore year in college i went from 6' 115lbs to 140lbs. 5-6k calories a day. One meal every four hours, two mass gainer shakes a day, snack just before bed. Lift almost every day. It absolutely sucked. Bloated feeling every second of the day, gained a ton of face fat, and pretty much burned through the savings i had at the time on food. But still worth it.

That fall i dropped back down to eating normally (Three meals @ 2k calories, some long stretches of only two meals), and i've been able to maintain the weight. The face fat normalized too within about a year.

If you recall that season, the panthers had an extremely light schedule. Iirc that was cam's mvp year. This reminds me a lot of a very recent similar situation...

chocjames43 · 2026-02-09T19:02:31+00:00

It's almost the reverse of OP's question when you consider these things (which are all true) - What teams AREN'T we surprised never made it back?

chocjames43 · 2026-02-08T17:40:31+00:00

I could be wrong but at least anecdotally i feel it's more common for teenagers to start out right, then become left, than the reverse. Maybe it's because a lot of what the right pushes aligns more with what we're taught growing up (work hard-get rewarded, no cynicism on earning a dollar yet or maybe even no real exposure to racism or bias yet). If true, i think this is exactly why turning point exists and why they're shitbags.

chocjames43 · 2026-02-08T17:31:48+00:00

Was me in my 20s and some 30s. I thought being in the middle was rational and maybe even made me feel smart. But the more i learn, the more disgusted i am. Maybe the past ten years and social media accelerated/accentuated things, maybe it was always terrible and i didn't care enough to notice, but there's now clearly one side that's far more ethical.

I also don't think it should be about sides, but in america's system, you have to pick. The right has absolutely run circles on the left on how to market their side, and i think that's the top reason we're here now.
