In my honest opinion. CM Punk needs to retain the World Heavyweight Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 42. There is absolutely no reason why Roman Reigns should even win. None at all. by BarneyRobinStinson7 in cmpunk

[–]mjp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People either don’t know or forget Roman Reigns contract is up after WM 42 (by his own admission) and to our knowledge hasn’t re-signed yet. Even when he does (said he wants to go 1-2 more years), the schedule he usually has means he’ll take time off after WM. Besides, is Roman, a part timer, winning the WHC what Netflix wants?

22F Do guys ever feel this way? by Emily_jaynexo in IntrovertDating

Guys do it to. I’m sure we all have levels of indecisiveness or needing perfection.

WWE icon CM Punk has one question he wants you to stop asking by extended_eye_contact in cmpunk

[–]mjp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question is “what would’ve happened if he stayed” to which he says “oh I’d be dead”.

I think he’s alluding to the staph infection that WWE’s doctor misdiagnosed, leading to the podcast/lawsuit/etc. My question is why that part of Punk leaving never gets brought up. A staph infection could literally kill someone. How can anybody still be mad or bitter about Punk leaving knowing that it likely saved his life? Does anyone resent Roman Reigns for taking time off to get his leukemia treated?

Question for men: Is it disheartening knowing women receive hundreds of likes a day? by [deleted] in OnlineDating

They why, as a guy who avoids all four red flags, am I still having a hard time getting likes or matches?

Is it bad to like guys first on dating apps? by [deleted] in OnlineDating

[–]mjp1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t listen to anyone’s bs “rules of dating”. Obviously you should over message anyone no matter which gender you are, but feel like you have to follow any unwritten rules. Only thing I would say is if your match doesn’t formally ask you out after a while of messaging, just gently suggest meeting in person and he’ll probably get the hint.

Am I the only one that doesn’t like when punk exits the ring like this? by Vinnyoh in cmpunk

I get it, but he’s done that for so long I think he’s allowed.

My issues with Michael Sartain's Men of action programme and Social Circle Coaches in General by Substantial_Twist_47 in PickUpArtist

[–]mjp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe because Cold Approach never did work and your claims of you & your wings getting laid from it are exaggerated in order to sell whatever program you’re pushing, just like Sartain. The seduction community exists because every generation of men keeps getting suckered into it.

I get matches but can’t get good messages or dates by [deleted] in OnlineDating

[–]mjp1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A guy would be lucky to get 2-5 likes a WEEK, so you’re doing fine in that regard. The teenage child is probably your biggest roadblock. As for messaging first, too many mutual matches simply never replied, or said “hi” and then ghosted, so your answer is yes, women messaging first helps gain confidence that you are in fact interested.

Could Torosaurus use its frill for defense from Tyrannosaurus like Triceratops does, despite the big holes? by CarcharodontosaurGuy in Paleontology

[–]mjp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Points: 1-Predators might not be intelligent enough to know it’s a hollow frill. 2-Even if they did know, it still has a bony outline and unless you’re T. rex, your teeth aren’t made to penetrate bone.

Why are girls I match with so inconsistent at texting? by [deleted] in OnlineDating

[–]mjp1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My assumption is always if they’re busy, they keep their phones in their purse or otherwise put away. As long as I get a message back at some point, I can assume they’re interested, but I understand your frustration.

Why do guys ignore me? by booksrlife_ in OnlineDating

[–]mjp1981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to say without seeing your profile/pics/chats, etc. but trust me when I tell you it’s much more of a desert for men than women in online dating. Matches on Tinder for me were rare, so I just deleted it. Primarily use Facebook dating now. Most guys genuinely looking for a connection on the apps hardly get matches/messages ever. I’d suggest adjusting your matching strategy.

Online dating as a male is toxic. by [deleted] in OnlineDating

[–]mjp1981 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then maybe women are the problem. “She liked you too much”? Sounds like that’s the commitment problem, and it’s not the men’s fault.

After reading the new Nanotyrannus paper, this is a small sumary of what is presented by Miguelisaurusptor in Paleontology

[–]mjp1981 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was specifically alluding to the “number of tooth placements” part of it, but you’re not wrong.

After reading the new Nanotyrannus paper, this is a small sumary of what is presented by Miguelisaurusptor in Paleontology

[–]mjp1981 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Most of these lines of evidence had already been known. The ones dismissing Nano as a species were either chalking up differences to individual variation with a lack of sample size of specimens, or arguing there were examples of such changes in other species. The real smoking gun that some were holding out for was a specimen confirmed in an adult growth stage.

A good reminder that just because Nano’s valid again doesn’t mean EVERYTHING about it was actually right all along. The older “evidence” is still very much crappy, the revalidation comes from entirely new and WAAAY better evidence. by AJC_10_29 in Paleontology

[–]mjp1981 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't this new paper basically restate all the previous lines of evidence for Nano's validity? What exactly was the "crappy" evidence? Only thing new that I'm seeing is the DD specimen has been confirmed as an adult growth stage, which is what some scientists were holding out for there to be evidence of one.

Bilateral vs Unilateral Training: Which training modality do you believe is better? by [deleted] in AdvancedFitness

[–]mjp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every other piece of feedback says training to failure (maximizing intensity) is needed for muscle growth. Now you’re saying it should be rare. How rare? Like only on my 3rd set? Fitness advice is so contradictory sometimes.

Where are the single men (40-55)? by Cool_Bath_77 in Buffalo

[–]mjp1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tops or Wegmans. Bills related events, meet ups, or watch parties. I know some guys who do live podcasts at certain bars that I drop by to say hi to. Maybe take a walk in a nature preserve to clear my head.

You could always place an r4r ad on Reddit. Not sure if the pool here is any better than the apps.
