    This is literally that one meme about the ugly man and the handsome man hitting on a lady at work.

    Imagine the frothing chud who wrote this.

      Having just moved back to my parents' place in the suburbs after a break up, it's gonna be hard for me to meet women my age. So I take solace in knowing that I'm still better off than the insufferable weirdo that wrote this lol

      I get the feeling that shit like this is part of the reason why I'm never able to talk to anyone in person. Like there are no examples of media online of losers every talking to anyone in real space and not being shut down, treated with disgust or mocked for the very idea.

        I think the best remedy against this is that you have to understand that a lot of other people look or feel like losers, and they still manage to talk to other people just fine. No stranger really cares enough to want to mock you. If you’re nice that’s enough for most people, you know?

          It also doesn't help that a family member instilled in me the mental state that I should never reveal anything or talk about any of my interests, because that will be used against you to mock and criticize you over your failures. I still have trouble speaking unless spoken too and saying anything besides reacting to what people say.

    Come on, they can do so much better. Like, she accepts the drink, but then refuses to talk to him, because "women don't owe you anything". Then she gladly talks to the Chad and either accepts the drink, talks without the drink, or buys HIM a drink.

    I'm much better at writing incel and boomer than these boomer cartoonists, and I'm not even an incel or boomer.

        Alternatively, plot twist: The second guy says, "I wasn't talking to you," first guy goes :hyperflush:

      Or even like, she directly gives the drink she got from the first guy to the second guy

    Where Micro aggressions ever a thing. All I have ever scene them talked about is in things mocking them.

      I mean the term microaggression is supposed to imply that it's a minor, most likely unintentional offense. But it became a very easy thing to make fun of and parody because the "micro" part, which was intended to soften the blow and express, "Hey, I know this is a small thing, but..." instead came across as "How dare you offend me in even the slightest way!" Its one of those terms that's well meaning and alright in theory, but breaks down when it's thrown into the chaos of social interactions, especially online because everyone's always looking to take things out of context and get mad.

      I recall seeing a video on not doing microaggressions, I think it was for company training.

      The examples given was like:

      Woman steps into elevator.

      Black man comes around corner, approaches elevator

      Woman shrinks back into corner, staring directly at the guy.

      Black man enters elevator.

      Woman covers up her jewelry, then runs out of elevator

      Did anyone in this scene commit any microaggressions?
