        I must be way too old. Being a nice guy is bad? Fuck, I’ve been living under a rock. Is this about incense or this sigma thing?

          Being a nice person isn’t bad but “nice guy” is a term for someone who presents themselves as nice and polite (but only to people they’re attracted to) and expects romantic attention in return for being nice. Basically, they think the fact that they put so much effort into being nice they deserve that romantic attention. They’ll often talk about how nice they are.

          Of course, anyone who needs to repeatedly tell you they are nice tend not be.

            This, and, speaking for myself, I once thought that’s literally how you attract someone because that’s what my mom taught me. “be nice to women, find a nice girl, ???, marriage.” in that order. But I was nice to everyone, not just people I liked.

            The one time I ever talked about how nice I thought I was, was when I was 18 and the girl I liked called me creepy when I was being nice to her all the time showering her with compliments and ttying to hang out with her. I went on this little rant, out of frustration, on FB in a status update about how women were bitches for not liking me and calling me creepy when I’ve just been trying to he nice to them. Yeah, at that point, that status update wasn’t exaclty being nice to anyone.

            Actually that was probably when I took a look at myself and realized just being nice isn’t gonna cut it, and my mom’s advice was shit. THEEEEEN, a few years later I heard about Nice Guys™

            It’s okay I’m now 32 and I have seen the light, it’s just took me until a couple years ago to figure it all out

    Fight option

    She should don Catwoman costume, gently pummel the dude to submission, and say “How’s this for a BOTTOM TEXT”?

    a bit strange but I don’t really see the problem tbh. Are these references I’m not getting? I recognize joker and thanos.

      The Thanos poster has been “alpha-male”-ified and the joker is a cringe incel reference. The fact you don’t know is a good thing.

          Incels scorn society and the world for making them ugly, no powerful jawline, no American Pie sex adventures in high school, and no nice suits to wear to their minimum wage jobs. To incels, they are the forgotten scum of the earth.

          Well, The Joker is a film about an abused, poor, and lonely comedian getting his face kicked in by teenagers about a month before rising up, killing a late night tv host, and vengefully breaking Society down into chaos and misery.

          So, they just think The Joker makes them look cool. That’s really it. Every time they think about shooting up an elementary school, they also think about Arthur Fleck gunning down Murray Franklin.

          Honestly I am somewhat confused too. I think the joker movie joker is kinda incel ref because he is kinda an incel and kinda hates women (I don’t remember the movie too well)

          That seems to be the dark knight joker tho. So idk.

          And honestly dark knight joker is amazing. Like I like the movie because the joker is a great villain in this movie.

            I don’t think the joker hated women at all in Joker. As far as I remember his attitude to both genders is the same.
