    Today I learned that some font colors should be disabled, or at least strongly advised against, for the sake of my eyes.

    Today I learned that drinking only tap water gets old really fast. I need to stop being such a cheap/lazy bastard and go get me some good stuff.

    Today I learned that a small plastic projectile traveling at 290 feet per second at the head of a small rodent will kill said rodent.

    I also learned that cats really do like to eat mice, and that mice apparantly like to eat my earl grey teabags.

    If it was 290 small rodent feet per second it wasn't such a high velocity...

    Yeah. That's unfortunately very true. I sometimes try to increase the amount of plain tap water I drink in relation to other stuff, but it never seems to last terribly long. And so I gradually shift back to drinking something else.

    No, more like 290 average sized King Henry the first feet per second.

    Today, I learned that if you drink 17 bottles of beer a day, you prevent prostate cancer. That is what researchers of the Oregeon University says. It seems that hop (Humulus), which is contained in the beer, contains xanthohumol (not sure if its an english word) which helps to prevent prostate cancer.

    Isn't it better to take pills that contain xanthohumol or something? Those researchers must either be retarded or under the influence of some beer company.

    I'd think at 17 bottles of beer a day, you'd have more cause for concern about liver and kidney failure, Korsakoff's syndrome and the whole host of other things that drinking way too much way too consistently can do to ya. Prostate cancer would be the least of your worries.

    Today I learned that changing the position of something in my room makes it a New Object to my cats which they must Investigate Fully, which usually involves said object getting jumped on, walked on top of, and often knocked over by my two little troublemakers.

    Today I learned that some girls really do prefer "bad" boys after all. That probably means that "nice guys finish last" is a little more true than I thought.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    It's not that they like "bad" boys, it's that they hate total fucking wusses that are afraid to show their sexuality, they want real men not boys. This is not what some women want, most women want this.

    If by "bad" boy you were referring to guys that treat women like shit, then yes some women do prefer this. Women that have such low self esteem that they think they do not deserve a good man or to be in a good relationship.

    This is an exerpt from a great article on social conditioning.

    Quote Originally Posted by Allen Reyes

    As talked about above also this is bullshit.

    This can be perceived by "nice guy culture" as an excuse for a poor love life and justified because they are such catchy sayings.

    This is perceived only. An extension of conditioning 1 is all it really is. Many guys who are conditioned that women don't like sex tend to then also not be sexual in nature to appease them.

    Ends up in a giant fuckin loop.

    "Well I wasn't pushy with her, I wasn't desperate or needy for sex" "she still didn't have sex with me or even pay attention to me" "women must not like sex".

    This one can take years to get out of, abandon this shit right here right now.

    This is ALL verbally based. Nothing you can be, or project or show sexually is "jerk", nothing you can be or show or project is "needy", "desperate" or "pushy".

    Barring :

    Ramming your pelvis in to hers upon first meeting (jerk)

    Slapping her ass as she walks by (sexist jerk)

    Hugging all over her on first sign of interest (needy)

    Salivating and rubbing all over her (desperate)

    Grabbing her arm and trying to make her get sexual with you (pushy).

    Laughing or smiling cause she is emotionally disturbed (insensitive dickhead)

    Obvious shit of course.

    Other than blatant things like the above you would have to SAY Jerkish or needy things to convey them:

    "quit talking about your sickly little brother I am sick of hearing it" as an example of jerk, or desperate things sexually "I know we just met but I haven't had a woman in so long, please sleep with me tonight" as an example of needy.

    In other words feel what you are. Feel your desire; don't quell it for worry you'll be thought of one way or another. Your actions and words are how you will be thought of (more on this later, lot more). Women can't read your mind and tell what you are thinking, and even if they could, quelled sexuality would not be a turn on. This leads us to our next example.

    I was in fact referring to guys that treat women like shit. I already knew all that other stuff (but thanks anyway for the article excerpt. It was a good read). I was referring to guys who have no respect for anyone else except themself. I learned that some girls are attracted to guys who act criminally, or who won't care about or pay attention to them. Apparently some women see some attraction to that. I was just surprised.

    Then again, I can kinda see the attraction in the "dangerous guy" type. It makes sense that a girl would want excitement like that and whatnot. I'm just talking about guys who act like jerks - the "obvious shit" from that quote.

    I've learned that lesson a while back.

    At first I'd heard the same, that it was just an excuse 'nice guys' liked to hide behind when things weren't going there way. But it's just plain true, some people at some point in there life just need some 'bad medicine'. Maybe they're fucked up in the head or have some emotional issue but it doesn't detract from them actually going for the ones that will treat them like shit.

    And let's not even get started on sexual manifestations of masochism or low self-esteem...

    Oh, and today I learned that I am unable to stomach lamb's liver for more than 3 hours. Yum.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
