And 90% of girls who wear them don’t end up marrying the person who gave it to them, don’t remain “pure”, or any of the other hollow reasons they tell themselves they wear them. When really they just wanted their HS boyfriend to buy them a ring. So really, what are they promising? “I’ll stay with you until we decide we want to break up”?
Promise rings are the most useless things ever. You have literally been duped into spending money for absolutely no reason. If you want to get married, GET FUCKING ENGAGED. If you are staying “pure” until marriage, that’s cool. But you don’t need a ring to smugly rub it into the face of everyone you think you’re morally better than (News Flash: You’re not).
Fuck. Anyway, I was applauding the whole series of comments because it is so insanely accurate. It annoys me when people don’t take responsibility for their situation which has come about through personal choices.
I gave her a present that was wrapped in the first page of the chapter “Unbreakable Vow” from Half Blood Prince. Inside was a box that contained a Golden Snitch. The Golden Snitch opened to the words “Will You Marry Me?”
When she looked up I was on one knee with her engagement ring presented and a smile on my face. #Chivalry
Someone posted a bomb threat on my fiancees yik yak. He got arrested and charged with a felony. They can trace you by your phone. So not entirely anonymous, it’s basically the same as twitter or comments on here.
I really don’t see an issue with the Batman shirt. Someone buys the shirt if they are a female and love Batman and want to be his wife. Are you saying females can’t enjoy Batman? That’s pretty sexist.
If I wore a shirt that said “I’d let Wonder Woman tie me down” is that sexist? It has the same connotations. Or even if I had a shirt that said “Training to be Catwoman’s husband”. Would every be as outraged?
Of course not. This is a prime example of looking for a fight and an issue when there isn’t one. You want to know why comic books are male centric? BECAUSE MALES MAKE UP 90% OF THE AUDIENCE. It’s not hard to figure out. That’s like arguing Twilight was female centric. Of course it was, it was aimed at young teenage girls.
And it isn’t like the comic book industry hasn’t tried to attract more female readers. The fact is that comic books are mainly read by males.
I don’t see how these equate to basicness. Let’s run it down right now:
1. Beards are usually a product of being too lazy to shave. now that women have decided they like beards again, it’s like a god send to every male everywhere who doesn’t want to shave every single day.
2. Tailgating is synonymous with day drinking. Day drinking occurs at all times of the year. Day drinking is an institution. I’m not saying you’re wrong if you don’t like day drinking, but you are and a terrible human being to boot.
3. I never got Bean boots. I’m not trying to hike Mt. Everest. Plus they look fucking stupid when worn in any setting that doesn’t involved wilderness.
4. Everyone enjoys what I like to call an Irish Hot Chocolate. Everyone.
5. You’ve pretty much described attire that is socially acceptable that we have to put the least amount of effort into to seem presentable for the outside world. We have versions of this attire depending on how cold or hot it is.
#3 is down to evolution. Males are programmed to spread the seed, and seek out as many female partners as possible. Females are programmed to find the most desirable male partner for mating. I could find a few sources to back me up, but lazy.
This is not saying that I think every dude should go out and bang as many girls as possible.

You really didn’t get it. Jenn was spot on.
Wow that entire article went over your head didn’t it?

Proposed to my fiancee using Harry Potter.
I gave her a present that was wrapped in the first page of the chapter “Unbreakable Vow” from Half Blood Prince. Inside was a box that contained a Golden Snitch. The Golden Snitch opened to the words “Will You Marry Me?”

I hadn’t even heard of a Caffe Misto until I read this. It sounds like a latte, or possibly a cappuccino?
Well said. Especially about the friends and the overthinking. Seems like that is the biggest downfall for most girls.
$20 on this girl being a rep for ibuprofen products.
I see it like this. The cooler is just another way for girls to one up each other. And don’t act like you don’t love one upping each other.
Always amazes that girls are surprised that guys on Tinder just want sex. It’s Tinder. That’s it’s sole purpose.
If YeahOkayWhat had a dick, you would now be sucking it.
You forgot the large amount of blow and adderall.

Really, sour cream and cheddar chips are on of the greatest inventions ever.
Not sure if you’re aware, but bae is actually danish slang for poop. You literally just called your sorority poop.
