    I have some money and don’t eat like shit now, why no women?

    If your personality’s garbage, no woman is going to want to be with you.

      Nah I’m sure calling science students “stemfags” and generally acting like a 4chan dickwad is super attractive to the ladies

        Lad in my class was trying to get a girl and was talking about how “that removed still hasn’t replied to my message”, and I was thinking that no wonder he couldn’t get a girlfriend if that was his attitude. To top it off, she actually did reply several days ago 😂

        Same guy also cheated on his previous girlfriend

        What even funnier to me is how people think this is how he would talk irl.

        Just like people jumping on someone for saying something like “removed be trippin”

        “MaYbE iF yOu DiDnT rEfEr To ThEm As removed

        Like bruh yeah I’m really out here only using removed to refer to women

          On the one hand, I agree, people don’t always talk in real life the same way they do online. On the other hand, just the mental space where you think “stemremoved” is a normal thing to type is enough of a signal that even if you don’t say it in real life, you probably aren’t the most pleasant person to be around

          And I know that things like “stemremoved” are part of 4chan’s culture, and it is normal to say it there… But isn’t active engagement in 4chan’s culture enough of a red flag on its own?

          Linguistically and culturally, removed has been integrated into the English vernacular and the connotation isn’t as misogynstic anymore. Stemremoved though? You hear someone pull that one out then thst raises alarms.

          Plus, if this is the internal process of someone then I wouldn’t be surprised it bleeds into their every day life, with or without them knowing.

    One of the best advice how to get a girlfriend comes strangely from Gravity Falls:

    “…Listen to me, kid. When it comes to girls always be confident. And be funny, but not too funny. And be kinda annoying, but in a lovable way.”

    At least that sums up how I got my GF, now Fiancé.

        You want to be funny in a charming way and a bit of a tease (the annoying part). So make the occasional dad joke, tell a funny anecdote, make funny observations and tease her a little bit but not in an insulting way. But don’t go full stand up comedian and spill out your inner clown or Bill Burr, most women aren’t attracted to that at all.

        Funny, not a clown, you want to appear confident.

        Annoying I wouldn’t know why, but I guess it could help appearing more natural.

    People think there is some recipe to get a GF but women are actually all different (like men and others btw) and therefore it entirely depends on whether two people are a good match. Like there are women out there who want a manchild that stays in a basement all day, as well as women who would only date Hugh Jackman or Danny DeVito. Pretending you’re not what you are won’t get you anywhere. She will find out and it will be all hell.

      The problem with finding women that are into manchildren who stay in their basement all day is that you have to leave the basement

    Why can’t Americans just be normal and use the metric system rather than some shit like 5’11 120 lbs? What the heck is that

    If you’re on 4chan, then your personality is immediately a problem. Especially writing green texts and ending things with -removed and considering yourself an adult.

    The trick is not being the kind of person that posts on 4chan in the first place, especially with pepes and “removed” terms.
