Touch some grass dude, humans flirting with each other in public has been happening literally forever. “Oh let’s give control one of the most basic core human activities over entirely to a handful of dating app corporations” my man, go outside

    If your gamer chair looks like it belongs in a race car I immediately discard your opinion.

    Also this guy has never been to a bar. That's literally all they are for.

    Well that and playing darts/pool with strangers.

      I go to a bar because they have a chicken wing special which is way cheaper than buying my own and cooking at home. I read leftist theory there because the music is too loud to listen to podcasts.

      What other reasons are there to go to a bar?

      These mfs really be spending like thousands of dollars for a "chair" that looks like it belongs in a 12 year old, video game addicted kids bedroom.

          This pissed me off recently looking for a GOOD office chair. The only actual high quality one I could find that didn't look like it would fucking break inside 1-2 years was £500+ like wtf. I just want a spinny chair that isn't made of plastic and looks like a comfy sofa you'll sink into.

          This was the absolute best thing I could find , it's not the right aesthetic but at least it really looks like it'll last forever... But maaaaan it needs to be more like 300. All the products that will actually last are priced outside average people's range.

          EDIT: Lmao look at this thing. "Boss Chair"

            Herman Millers are very comfy and you can typically get them for cheap / free if you find a failed start up cleaning out their office

                Mesh backed chairs look stupid but the amount of levers and weird shit on a good one lets you sit like richard fucking simmons reclining on a sybian without any long term problems

            This is why I have a “gaming chair” :deeper-sadness: Its ugly but it’s very comfortable and cost 1/3rd what a decent office chair would’ve cost

        I think there's definitely a difference between mutual flirting and being a creep.

          At what point is flirting mutual? In straight situations, I say its when the woman starts flirting at you first. Guys 'flirt' at me all the time, and every single time it is unwanted and feels like a torrent of horndogs is trying to jump down my throat. Its even worse when the 'flirting' gets physical like some guy tries to rub my shoulders

          I need to start wearing a wedding ring or some shit, though I doubt thatd stop it

            That's totally valid but I think other comments in this thread already address this, I for one don't feel comfortable with dating apps so social settings are the only time I could even begin to attempt that sort of social interaction largely for the reason you stated, I can at least get a feel for whether someone is actually interested in me.

            I think the thing I have issue with is this person implying that in person social interaction of any kind is not the right time/way to meet a potential partner which is just incomprehensible to me.

            Hell the last few dates I went on were after a girl hit on me in the grocery store I worked at.

            It cuts back the amount about 40% imo and everyone after that point can ethically have their throat slit like the feral hog they are

              why slit throats with knives when you have big ole munchers and an empty belly :british-maw:

              im considering maybe a necklace for the ring so that when nasty guys look at my tits theyll get the memo... maybe

                Those iron knuckles / punch knives that look like a kitty are fun. I got to watch a riot grrl use one on a sex pest once at a house show and I was like

        but he says "maybe" like that's not one of the primary reasons to spend way more than necessary to get drunk around strangers.

      Also this guy has never been to a bar. That’s literally all they are for.

      Bars are for spending 10x the price of a bottle on a single drink, listening to 90s music, and staring longingly at someone you're into from across the room while they grind on a better looking person with an expensive car.
