    No.

    ...Is that sarcasm?

    I'm so confused. How can I tell :eek:

    Btw, Night Night Legs Eleven!

    We should all wish LegsEleven a good nights rest. Maybe something good will come of this thread :P

    My biggest problem about being asked out , is my wife .
    She goes from pissing herself laughing to threatening to cut my balls off.

    In fact in 382 14 years of marriage I've been asked out twice , once by a friend of hers , Im still not sure what that was all about and the second time by a work colleague who was car crash material .


    :o I love my wife BTW.

    My bf was like that at the start, well not that bad, then he got used to it. :pac:

    I'm so flattered when someone hits on bf, because he's mine. :pac: I picked him!!

    Hmmm, I've always been tempted to walk up to random women and ask them out. :o I know it won't end well, but still.

    Also, Lou, I'd talk about your post but it would be like shooting fish in a barrel :P
    Well they don't run after me in the street or anything. :pac:

    Statistically, women are more likely to be subjects of violence by men than men by women, right?

    Things that seem to be true from glancing through stats on violence (mostly American).

    Men mostly commit violence against men.
    Women mostly commit violence against men.
    Men get assaulted more often than women and mostly by men.
    Women get assaulted less often than men and mostly by men.
    Men are more violent than women.

    No, that's not fair. There is a risk involved with going on a date with a guy, likewise there is a risk for guys; albeit a much smaller risk.

    There's a risk in me getting out of bed in the morning too, but I don't make a big deal about it because it's simply part of life and being bubble wrapped or talking about the 'risk' is stupid as f*ck,

    We should definitely start taking our social cues from Louis CK. He knows what's up.

    And South Park. Those guys get it.

    And maybe the Police Academy movies. Well, 1 to 3 anyways.

    Genuine not sarcastic question.

    Were you being sarcastic about asking whether my question asking if you were sarcastic was in fact sarcastic?

    Eh? Eh!

    The only logical answer to that would be: Maybe.

    Eh, have you ever said a word over and over and it didn't sound like a word any more?

    Yeah, that's happened with the word sarcasm now.

    And all because of you question on my question on your comment on whether your comment was sarcastic asking whether my question on your comment was sarcastic...sarcastically. :(

    Here's Louis C.K being intimidating to one unfortunate woman



    That's actually hilarious, precious got what she deserved.

    This ties in to the #YesAllWomen meme that was all over Twitter last week. I have no idea what I'm supposed to do differently now. There's all sorts of vague platitudes flying around, about "having conversations" (with who?) and so on. None of it is constructive in any sense. It's getting to the point now that I don't speak to a woman unless she speaks to me first, since being in any way "forward" might upset her, and that would upset me. I do not need to be made to feel bad for no good reason.

    Government resting upon the will and universal suffrage of the people has no anchorage except in the people's intelligence.

    Start a conversation with the women in your life, ask about their experiences and listen. Ask them how they do and do not like to be approached.

    Wtf? Saying it's light-hearted isn't a get-out clause. Is that sketch for real or is it a satire? If it's not a satire, even if light-hearted - does he include himself among these threatening men he's referring to?

    You know what isn't funny?

    There's probably no way to say this without seeming a bit assholey, but Lou.m, if that's how your genuinely feel, you should probably see a counsellor to try and overcome it, because it's not normal, that's not how most women see the world, and those thoughts are not based in the reality of the world. It must be torturous to live with those kinds of thoughts running through your head, supposedly light hearted thread or not.

    oh lord honey ... not assholey at all... oh yeah been to therapy for it...when I was actually IN this place.well a lesser extreme version of it...it was after a really traumatic time about two/3 yrs ago ..much better now..

    It IS a comedy routine which naturally exaggerates the reality times 1000000000...


    and those thoughts are not based in the reality of the world.

    Unfortunately ....just a weensy weensy tinsy bit ...they are...if you don't know that you are very naive. ..but just a tiny % of the world....but it is there..I got to see a part of it unfortunately.

    How do you know how most women see the world? Have you had their experience? They probably all see it differently.

    It is that after that there is a certain part of you that needs to be expressed emotions are not logical. Logically the world is a nice place but if all you have experienced is dark then that emotion is buried in you somewhere until you let it out. So that it does NOT become your view of the world.


    No it is not how I see the world. But I do think sometimes we should give a tiny thought that it is a small dark corner of the world that some people do see.

    But it is amazing what you get over and how you bounce back.
