Tumblr is cancer.
I can understand being attracted to the dad bod physique (or lack thereof), but don't then justify it by saying that you feel uncomfortable dating a fit guy because you don't look good. Stop being vain, or get your ass to the gym and get in better shape. Scaling attractiveness inversely to effort invested in personal health is a terrible metric. To me, it's impractical, and it shows an irresponsible misallocation of value.
Edit: Tumblr is cancer for many reasons. This just happens to be one of them.

My favourite part of that is him rolling up the pizza and eating it like a burrito XD

Man I'm glad I'm not the only one that attributes the "dad bod" to people just not taking care of themselves. Hating on people that go out of their way to be healthy and fit is absurd.

I'm not fat shaming. I'm shaming on the idiocracy of women for the reasons that they go after the dad bod. It's absurd. Just a bunch of girls who are abusing relationships for their own personal needs of satisfying their insecurities and following modern day feminism ... which I'll from now on call womanism. Or female-ism. Not too sure which one as long as it lets proper feminism get back their title.

So CAH JC/MtG style. That sounds amazing. Would each user get a card? Magic related ones as well. Someone make the expansion. Go.

Also im sorta done lumping feminists in with them. I've learned that most feminists really do want to achieve eqiality. I find the methods of their leaders questionable but they are a different kind of danger. These tumblrite idiots are no representation of feminism....and trust me then mens rights people are just as ludacris there.
May 21, 2015 10:18 p.m.
I've become disillusioned with the term feminism to be honest. I prefer the term equalism as it seems more apt as to what the original feminism strived for. Nowadays so many people call themselves feminists and act completely absurd that I'd just rather avoid them entirely.

Or yeah, going for the term equalism seems like better than trying to rename feminism.

See ive been discussing that with people lately. To the core, you gotta accept the grey area that's all life is. There is no right or wrong way about it. There is what you believe and what others beliefe. As long as you respect that

@Didgeridooda: Only if my card is "Epochalypdick."
Also, liberalism as a whole is fouled by two things:
1) Overemphasis on identity politics. There are too many camps working for too many interests, and they don't have any desire to unite for common advancement.
2) Radical minorities. Highly radical and highly vocal elements of various groups get the most attention, so the perception of those groups becomes radicalized regardless of how small a minority the actual radicals comprise.
Third-wave feminism is the perfect encapsulation of both of these things with a healthy dose of hate-movement-fronting-as-equality-movement.

I don't attach my name to ideologies. Im a guy in favour of equality. The kind that people get what they work thier ass for. Not the kind that freely gives handouts based on what you're born into. That may be not so popular of an opinion but its mine. Perhaps im wrong. Perhaps im not. Who cares? Im but one man.

Dude, Epoch, that is going to be the trump card. That one is a requirement.
I will hold off on more ideas for it because I feel like letting this convo pan out.

Femme_Fatale says... #26
One card should be:
"Femme wants ..."
A few others should be:
- "VampireArmy was triggered by ..."
- "Derp was yelled at because ..."
- "A popular quote on Fluffy's wall is ..."

See i go further. I've read historical texts showing that even the sufferagetts only wanted rights for upper class white woman and had refused rights earlier on when they came with the burden of responsibilities.
I blame the media for hiding that. For continuing to protect the radicals. They pulled the same stunts years ago when our country was far off the other side politically. If you trully look at it, while the rest of us fight about whos right, they continue to get rich.

Dude if I had a chance to date a fit guy I totally would.
How insecure do you have to be to not want to date a fit person because they're fit?
Also, I want doughnuts.

A feminist who is not a feminist even by feminist standards but still gets thousands of dollars of feminist money and support. She a very skilled con artist who's only counter argument EVER is "stop oppressing me you oppressive males"
EDIT : she says that though she refuses to acknowledge the millions of women who also disagree with her hysterical bullshit

I have a question.
I set up an auction on ebay for 2 Kalonian Hydra. It was set up so that there was no auction, just two hydra's for sale, individually. Someone bought both of them, and the site charged em for shipping twice. Is there a way to give back the second shipping cost since it's going to the same place? Am I even under any obligation to refund the shipping cost?
