Drinking with any regularity is a bad idea, and intoxication is a factor in so much lovely behaviour and lovely relationships.

As to alcohol 'making the mask slip', I can't really believe it. It is true in terms of approximate character judgement, like I will think less of a guy who behaves poorly when drunk, not just dismissing it as his drunk self. But overall I don't think it is revealing things people usually think but are in control enough to cover up. Thoughts (not just behaviour) involve both activation and inhibition. If you flip a coin and it comes up heads neurons have to fire for both 'yes, this is heads' and 'no, this isnt tails'. The same is true for beliefs you hold. Drawing that belief into conscious awareness requires both activation of it, and inhibition of all that it is not.

When cognition is sufficiently impaired these processes get all hosed up. Think of coprolalia style tourettes. The person isn't swearing and saying obscene things because they are actually angry filthy perverts inside, it is because they know they aren't supposed to say those things so are trying to suppress them but the process is mixed up. Midstage Huntington's disorder often produces aggressive sexual comments from otherwise gentle individuals. Early parkinsonian dementia results in people saying messed up things that all evidence suggests they don't believe. The textbook example is the lifelong civil rights campaigner who suddenly can't stop shouting the n word when a black nurse walks in the room, followed immediately with apologies and asking "did I really say that? I couldn't have, it doesn't make sense". Alcohol has temporary but severe effects on the brain, enough that the lessons learnt from permanent disorders apply.

I'm absolutely an angry filthy pervert inside, in case you were wondering

There's absolutely a branch of incel-types who will use the language of economic justice and socialism to explain why women should be forced by the government to have sex with them. Chads are sex capitalists hoarding a commodity that should be a human right like food and shelter.

Boyfriends startup is failing and he blames me

quote:

My boyfriend (50M) and I (40F) have been dating for two years and we recently moved in together (it was his idea to move into a place that I own). We both are entrepreneurs and live fairly comfortable lives. He had a successful exit from his first start up but is struggling with his current one. My startup is a constant struggle but I keep sufficient money coming in the door with other contract work.

Up until now, our relationship has been great; we communicate well and respect each other and are supportive. One month ago, he decided (with my blessing) to rent an apartment in a nearby state where he used to live and had more friends, and we have agreed to split our time together between the two cities.

Last weekend we had a horrible fight that was completely out of the ordinary for us. Then last night, he called to inform me that his meetings yesterday went terribly, he was liquidating his business, and he blamed it on bad karma from moving in together. I feel like I�m his scapegoat. He didn�t directly blame me but said everything went downhill with both our businesses since he moved in. I suggested that is he would be happier moving to the other apartment by himself that he should do that, but I didn�t really get an answer. If he moves into the other apartment full time in the other city, I feel like the relationship will be damaged forever.

He�s coming home tomorrow and I don�t really know how to move forward with all of this. I know that it�s not my fault but I feel hurt and completely blindsided.

Startups are like ships, it's bad luck to let a woman aboard

THUNDERDOME LOSER 2022

Can we stop ragging on Pick? I'm not trying to white knight here; it's just that the last time it happened we lost the Star Trek Doodle Thread. (PS: Pick I really am white knighting you so drop me a PM if you want to go steady)

Moving the difficulty slider to "auto-success" with r/mensa:

Girlfriend constantly contradicts me (IQ 162), becoming flustrated.

quote:

Salutations. I come here to ask other fellow minded men about a problem I've encountered. Recently, I began pouring over various medical documents and have found several contradictions regarding them. My girlfriend is an RN and continually rolls her eyes when I try to point them out, which is understandable (she won't tell me her IQ, though if I wagered a guess it would be about 116) from a regular IQ'd person, but there's a new problem...

You see, she is now correcting and making fun of me in the presence of our peers, often incorrectly citing my discoveries and imitating me stating them in a stupid voice while she crosses both of her eyes. I become angry and remind our peers I have an IQ of 162, but that seldom quells the laughter, and she now calls me "the first retarded member of MENSA". I rather enjoy settling things in a duel of minds, but I fear my anger and animosity stemming from this disrespect will one day lead to me striking her in the face.

Do any of you have experiences like this, or advice for me?

My advice? Get some help or get better when writing stdh.txt, but I want to believe.

A couple of others from there that are related to robots trying to decipher hoo-man emotions:
Comparison of intelligence between Sansa Stark and Margaery Tyrell, from Game of Thrones. Also Ramsay Bolton.
Same things unfortunately happen at conventions of any type but filling in the gaps is an exercise for the reader.

e: I missed the best one, which links to this...What does an IQ of 145 mean? Spoilers: You will apparently die alone, no one likes you, and you are not actually that smart if you can't figure out how to have a non-highly-volatile net worth greater than "on average a little higher than your social peers".

Crap, OK, fine, obviously a troll but worth a chuckle because I want it to be true: How do I talk to women? (complex predicament)

quote:

I can solve multi-variable statistical physics with the utmost panache, yet when you add the feminine anima archetype into the equation I am left without a single tactical strategized apparatus to approach this complex predicament. My favorite pickup line is "Hey baby, my IQ is as long as your phone number, without the hyphens of course."

This seems to make their inferior brain quiver at my girthy intellect. I want to inseminate their minds, not just their body.

I am fluent in many languages, but I do not want to list them all because I would appear as a braggart. However, the one language I am yet to add to my collection is the language of woman, the language of love.

Any suggestions?
