    I love that divorced fathers have built a cargo cult for masculinity. If they lay out enough totems of what they think a real man is, John Frum is going to want to have a beer with them. Since those totems don't convince their ex-wife otherwise, the market for new ones will only grow and become more abstract. Especially with all the most prominent ones being Nazis, it's going to get so fucking stupid so fucking fast.

      Tired: "Here I am with my rosary. I am about to ask God for guidance and I hope I can make the changes needed to become a better man and father so that my wife - I mean ex-wife - will take me back..."

      divorced fathers... totems

      Wired: "They bitches! Here I am with my Diet Coke and my gunz. I don't need anybody! I'm living my best life!"
