I also feel "the normal clothes" are a very strange way to categorise "anything that isn't a suit".

This is the same type of people who admire Capone because he "dressed like a gentleman", if only them gangbangers down the corner took a lesson from him, amirite?

I mean, sure. You'll just have to get up earlier than everyone else to make sure all the items you're putting on are properly positioned and unwrinkled so your suit doesn't look trashy. And you'll probably want to get a fitted suit so it doesn't look baggy and weird on you, which you'll then freak out over every time the weather isn't perfect or you have to do something messy because it's so expensive and you didn't just wear jeans and a nice shirt like a normal person.

Why is it that the completely superfluous "in this moment" is what bothers me the most? Why do these goobers talk like this? Do they think it makes them sound intelligent?

To be fair, that line was written by a teenager trying to sound deep and insightful. So yeah, he thought it made him sound intelligent, but who among us can say that they didn't do/say/think something equally dumb as a teenager?

The title of the article makes it very clear that the writer believes themselves to be the most important person ever. Jesus, just because someone wants to lose weight, doens't mean it has anything to do with you!

I just skimmed it but it really doesn't seem that terrible to me? It's hard not to internalize comments people make about their body when you're struggling with your weight, too. I don't know, I've seen articles that are way more self-centered than this one.

I think it's more a matter of the persons weight being something they felt they couldn't or wouldn't change, so when people around them change regardless it makes this person self conscious.

Maybe they don't feel like they'll be as accepted and validated for their choices when others around them lose weight. But everybody is on their own journey, and it should be no threat to them. I mean, imagine this with any other subject-

Yea the "my mom 'moved out of her body' so she wouldn't look like me" angle is a little too self-serving for my liking. She literally said she felt "betrayed" by her own mother.

Sorry if this hits too close to home to someone, but other people who are thinner/fitter/healthier have body issues too, and if they want to fix them, it's not a personal insult to anyone else.

Adolf Hitler was the worst thing that could possibly happen to the white identity and the best thing to happen for cultural Marxists. You can now never bring up racial truths/the benefits of eugenics without the brainwashed masses whimpering "Buh buh buh, the Holocaust!" Even though white people are responsible for the majority of society's advances, this one fuckwit will forever make defending our culture from invasion and degeneration an extreme taboo.

And don't ever think any praise will be ever given to the men, the innovators and risk-takers of society. Just look at the men's rights movement. We've tried to respectfully point out the massive gap in suicide rates, homeless rates, divorce rape, and education, and what did we get? A skit on SNL calling us misogynists. A woman being "objectified" results in massive outrage from all fronts. Men actually suffering from real problems? You will never get anything more than a shrug and a "meh".

Perhaps it also has to do with how black genes dramatically reduce intelligence. The intellectual dullness of negroes explains their pack mentality so naturally they don’t feel as comfortable around individualist Whites and just feel safer in a gaggle of fellow negroes?
Just a thought that only now occurred to me.

“just a thought that now occurred to me”? Maybe you should develop a thought like that more before you post. I am mulatto and grew up in the north Georgia. I was always the minority as my surroundings were at least 95% Caucasian. Starting in middle school I was considered “gifted” and selecting for the program containing the top 10% of my age group by national test scores following through high school. Upon graduating, I was ranked 8th in my school by GPA and SAT scores. I just so happened to also be the football star and went to college on a football scholarship (after all it was free). I was also selected as one of the most attractive in my class, brown skin-green eyes, by the yearbook committee. So I have lived my life in constant comparison to my white and black peers, fighting preconceptions and my own demons. My point is this: using my own life as a case study, I find more influence from a person’s parental upbringing than from racial makeup. And as much as I don’t like what you said, there may be some truth in it as just as I was naturally more athletic than my peers, the brain is a product of genetics as well. However, I’m living proof contradicting your statement. You clearly cannot generalize like that without the research. My friends used to tell me that I had it all, or the best of both worlds or what not but really I’m just a product of genetic diversity with the right assortment of phenotypes. But what I think most of you try not to admit is that this is becoming more than just a trend and is the natural progression of any species. Genetic siversity. Especially with the gradual rise in interracial relationships and openness toward change in society’s racial caste system. Well sorry for the lengthiness and thanks for letting me share my story/thoughts. Oh yeah, I’m 28yo, live in Atlanta, majored in Biology and currently work as a medical technologist

Urban Dictionary posted:

Divorce rape

Noun or verb used to describe a wife who uses the fact that divorce courts are sexist in favour of women, to personal advantage. For example by taking an unfair proportion of the husband's assets or denying him access to children.

Julie and her husband James had been married for 10 years and had 3 children. Julie stopped having sex with James and then accused him of rape. She filed for divorce and hired an expensive lawyer using their shared bank account. Julie and her lawyer divorce raped James and took the house and all the money James had saved over the years, leaving James with nothing. He was also denied the right to visit his children. James was upset with the divorce rape that Julie had committed against him. What a bitch.
