Why spend so much time on a loser? Serious question.

I watched a few minutes, felt like he was a self absorbed ahole and moved on. Never giving him another thought until I saw this thread again.

He made some valid points even if he is a tool, what he does do is unwittingly make a very good argument for abortion. So I 'll give him that.


And, I agree with however above posted about his hand jewelry, a little over the top IMHO.

Then again, who am I to judge that cat is probably pulling huge $$ from monetizing his You Tube Videos.

LOL! Seriously.

I'll answer your tired old trope with another of your favorites, why do I occupy so much space in your head? You're like a stalker.

SERIOUS statement, no, really, very serious, you spent more time with your post than I did googling. LOL!

PARFers are so predictable. Seriously!

?????????


I was not trolling you. Seriously.

I was agreeing with you. He is a tool bag and his video is unwatchable.

YU so grouchy bro?


*edit* - I was only pointing out you spent more time contemplating the tool that I would ever give him.

Carry on.

It looks like (RED PILL) is a youtube channel dedicated to hating women... look at the title in the OP. I follow a few cooking and French channels and now red pill has infested my YT home page. Thank God for the 3 dots and "Not interested."

You PARFers should stay over there and not infest OT with your garbage. TIA.

Only watched the opening bit of the video...then thought: I'm 75, have been married to the same woman for 44 years. There is no way in hell this could ever be worth my giving it any thought.

I honestly do not pay much attention to you on here. This interaction? Wow!!

I am gonna do you a favor and put you on ignore in the morning when I am having my coffee on my PC getting my day started. This way you know for sure I am not stalking you. I can honestly say, from this point on I do not give a crap what you have to say anymore.

It is sad, some of you members here have really gone off the deep end these last 2+ years. I considered you one of the nice guys in the past.

What a bummer. I thought we were having fun here joking about a tool bag.

No worries, I will never respond in one of your threads again, nor reply to you again.

Eeesh, the guy in the vid is a 1st order pig and his rationale describes more about his own absence of character than that of single moms.

... And yet, his broader conclusions are not completely wrong. Dating or marrying a single mom is statistically bad for you, bad for her, and most importantly bad for her kids. Just the plain facts.

Absolutely agree, 100%.

Would I accept life coaching from this guy? ... No but he makes some valid points.

The biggest problem here is his delivery. He's brutal and that puts people off.

WTF?

Do people take any notes or at least think through what they are about to say? Or do they just start babbling and then hope to cut it together into a coherent content?

I want my 30 seconds back.

And I am glad I don't have to go to YouTube for dating advice.

He's brutal in that he uses absolutes. Some people get hung up on any point because its not absolute. For example, he says, "Her kid will always come first." While that is actually a good point, he overstates the truth by insisting that this is fundamental... that there are no exception. Clearly there are exception... Some people will appreciate that he's pointing out a potential problem, others light their hair on fire with disgust because he's overstated the point.

Interestingly to me is that his rather trolly method is quickly becoming all the rage (pun) in politics. The Left & Right.. AOC & POTUS... they overstate things just enough to bring controversy.. which in turn gets people talking about say "concentration camps" or who's going to pay for a wall.

Clearly, with the exception of Rawknee, ALL of the OT camper lose their sheet like crying babies when ever confronted with a dash of hyperbole. (see what I did thar?)

I think people get annoyed by hyperbole because its not exactly useful but unfortunately has become the language of political conversation. As a PARFer you know that you only way for you to be understood or accepted by your right leaning buddies is to employ hyperbole. Hyperbole gets you noticed and you enjoy that. Just like the ultra left paints anyone slightly right of center as racists and Nazis, the ultra right has to describe dems as soviet style dictators. Unfortunately, this is turning people away from meaningful conversations about issues.

Yorkie, you are just like Shaun, attaboy!

In case my previous post was unclear.

My reply to Shaun's "Irony" with a ROFL smiley face was intended to convey that he decries all things PARF, and disparages the level of discussion and maturity, then goes on to do the very thing he is complaining about. In case this post is unclear, Yorkie, you just did the exact same thing. In case either of you are wondering, it makes you look like hypocritical, sanctimonious douchebags, not that there is anything wrong with that.
