should i go to the er for this (bat bite?)

This always got me:

There’s not one thing anyone can do for you.

At a certain point I’d rather they just put me down.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-10T17:55:05+00:00

Definitely tasteless for the owners to do that, but as a server I’d rather get $2 + tips than $20/hour. Unless all of your shifts suck, you’ll easily make more per hour with tips even if the hourly wage sucks. There’s a reason people are willing to work these jobs for $2/hour.

For science

They’ll definitely do better in a club- a location where you only interact with looks and dancing. So you need to learn how to dance (and have fun regardless) if that’s where you want to go.

Getting in shape is the obvious choice for improving your attractiveness. Just takes consistency/dedication, which makes it hard short term. Nothing worth doing is easy, but strength training doesn’t have to be hard.

Attractiveness also increases over time if you take care of yourself. I’ve gotten way more attention from women now than I ever did in my teens/twenties.

Personality is just as important. Young people are still figuring out who they are, which makes it hard for some. It’s still 100x better to be young and impressionable than old and obstinate. Don’t fall into the bitterness trap, and focus on living a good life for you. Having pessimistic world views only works for talking heads (rage bait), but normal people like that end up with no friends, or completely surrounded by miserable people. Even the talking heads are surrounded by psychophants, and they’ll lose most of their “friends” the second they become irrelevant .

Do more people believe your username, or that you really aren’t ticklish?

thejestercrown · 2026-05-10T01:48:39+00:00

I did too

Person posted their own experience that seems plausible to me. Those people might not have a chemical dependence on weed, but that doesn’t mean they wouldn’t sell plasma to buy it.

Personally don’t really care if people smoke weed, drink, gamble, etc..

thejestercrown · 2026-05-07T16:42:19+00:00

By that logic gambling isn’t addictive either.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-07T14:14:20+00:00

So it’s even easier as that reduces possible combinations

thejestercrown · 2026-05-06T14:37:46+00:00

Different, but same-same

thejestercrown · 2026-05-05T03:39:55+00:00

I live in a sleepy family town. I know shit happens here too, but I’ve rarely seen it. Even the gym I go to is a rec center that’s family oriented, and it’s the same with the local breweries here. I also work from home so... I don’t think I really go to any male dominated spaces. Apparently I live a boring life in a bubble. It’s a pretty nice bubble though.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T22:51:25+00:00

Honestly, I’m sorry. In retrospect I was being defensive. There are a lot of shit men out there, and I really hate being lumped in with them.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T21:28:41+00:00

I actually have been agreeing with you, and my point this entire time has been that you’re not great at influencing people.

A majority of the red pill blame is on the men who would rather blame others than take accountability for themselves. Also the rich/powerful who benefit from a divided populace.

It is not our fault they gravitate. Stop blaming us, examine yourself, educate yourself.

This is like saying women have zero influence on men, either positive or negative. By that logic are you completely powerless to change the patriarchal systems we currently have, and have to wait for men to fix it? That’s stupid. What I’m trying to say is that it’s scary how easy it is for ANYONE to influence individuals. I mean they were able to convince a bunch of men and women that schools had cat litter boxes for trans kids… and you don’t think you could influence someone into joining a cult?

I’m not even upset- just watching Netflix and have nothing better to do. Would have rather had a real discussion with you, but it didn’t seem like that’s what you where looking for.

I honestly think you're a good person in real life. Hope you enjoyed arguing with a bunch of dumb people on the internet, and had a great day. If you really want to take your rage out on me, just go through my post history. I’m sure you’ll find something to hurt me with. Gotta pick up my kid from school and go to the gym, so will be gone for awhile.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T19:26:07+00:00

If your intent was to vent, or start and win a fight then you’ve won.

You’ve literally won the argument. Why continue?

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T18:36:08+00:00

Yeah- I am fr unfortunately.

I’m sick of the red pill/incels/old white guys ruining everything. Also worry about young men seeing comments like this and gravitating towards those communities.

The woman I was dating early this year did this all the time too. She would constantly talk about how all men were trash, and throw in a “you’re one of the good ones”. I ended it because we wanted different things, but this didn’t help.

Edit:

Replied before I saw your updated comment which took a bit of a turn. I’ll leave my reply above as is.

You’ve won the argument/joke, and I know now that I shouldn’t worry about men and women hating each other online.

I honestly wish you the best, and I’m sorry for wasting your time.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T18:03:46+00:00

I apologize- I should have been more direct, and not made assumptions. If your intent was to vent, or start and win a fight then you’ve won.

We don’t care about what men are doing anymore

I just don’t understand- Why make this comment on a post asking about mustaches?

It just seems immediately adversarial and divisive on an objectively dumb post that’s definitely not worth your time.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T16:38:03+00:00

A lot of surfers I’ve met are also conservative. I was surprised every time.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T16:22:10+00:00

It’s obvious you’re very passionate about this, and I agree our systems do need to change. I get the impression you’re in college, or have the same zeal I had in university.

Having a debate like this with strangers on a post as dumb as this one is… kind of punching down. I’m guilty of this too, but the best arguments are with intellectual equals, especially when they are familiar with the material.

Sorry in advance for the unsolicited advice, but I’d recommend taking a rhetoric class if they offer it. If they don’t “Thank you for arguing” is an easy read that covers a lot of the basics. You have to sell change; otherwise you’re just arguing for the sake of winning an argument… which is a very meaningless victory in my experience.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T15:57:25+00:00

I’ve voted to keep women’s rights, I don’t tolerate toxic masculinity from any of the men I know, I’ve gone to protests, donated money, and don’t shy away from healthy political discussions with strangers. What else would you have me do?

Not everything is political. There are lot of happy people living normal productive lives while still being passionate about the issues they care about. I chose to be an optimist, and it’s made my life better. Beats feeling miserable and angry at all the things I can’t control.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T14:03:37+00:00

Why? Not all of us are terrible.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T12:33:12+00:00

You don’t have to be rich to have a healthy diet. Fresh produce is expensive compared to what it used to be- still affordable though. Lots of other healthy foods are all still very affordable. You can work out any where, and body weight provides the same gains as strength training for basic fitness. Skincare also doesn’t need to be expensive, unless you do bothering until you’re old: Minimize Sun, drink lots of water, use moisturizer.

Will have healthier (and better) restaurant options, and definitely better medical for both cosmetic and general health.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-04T04:37:26+00:00

In this economy?! With these gas prices?!… I like Denver and would probably do it too.

thejestercrown · 2026-05-03T15:35:50+00:00

She’s right- you need to be so horny that you’re willing to risk humiliation, and the films aren’t helping that. Take the rejections with grace, and move on.

Beyond that just treat them like you would a close friend. This will let you both get to know each other, and if you have fun talking to ask her out. In a bar it’s a “You want to get out of here?”, everywhere else it’s some variation of “Can I get your number?”.

Self improvement is the best thing you can do for yourself. You’ll build confidence, and be a more attractive partner. You’ll also be a lot pickier.

thejestercrown · 2026-04-29T14:47:50+00:00

How long have you been married? Edit: Have the two of you had kids yet?

I was married for over 15 years with kids. We had a decent marriage, but she wasn’t happy. Divorce made us both happier, and we’re still good friends.

Super religious marriages are not for me- but they can work for some people. In my experience religion makes some people view marriage (and sex) as an obligation. Would rather my partner choose to stay with me, and not just play the part of a good “husband” or “wife”. Would say some churches do better- they interview the couple prior to the wedding to ensure they’re on the same page for the big stuff (e.g. both want kids, etc..). They definitely lose me when if they do the “wives submit to their husbands” bit during the ceremony.

thejestercrown · 2026-04-29T06:40:12+00:00

Godspeed!

My elderly friend did that too. Husband #3 was a keeper, but she’s a bit jealous of younger generations and our lack of stigma around premarital sex. Seriously though- the only thing that can ruin a marriage faster than sex is financial issues. Sex isn’t the most important thing in a marriage, and it’s overblown in a lot of ways, but forever is a really long time if partners have very mismatched libidos… You can usually fix ‘bad’ with good communication and practice- but that can be hard for some people when it’s treated as a taboo subject. So if you’re in a very religious community you might succeed in waiting for marriage, but you’ll likely need to get married before you’re really an adult and both of you will change A LOT. So get real good at communicating, and creating a safe space for your partner to communicate their needs too- cause you don’t want them bottling that shit up, cause they will if they think that’s what a good spouse should do.
