The thing is you will always be an idiot, but an idiot in a suit. Smart women can spot poser like you easily, just saying.

Science is weird. And possibly black magic.

Looks like an advanced version of the one where you add hydrochloric acid to sugar.



That's quite the assumption, Theo. Are you implying that people who don't exercise and care about fashion are slobs with no confidence?

I don't exercise and I don't care what I'm wearing, but my confidence in fine. I don't have to wear a suit to feel confident. I know I'm awesome.

Self-confidence comes from believing yourself to be right. The reason dressing well makes you confident in yourself is because you believe you look attractive in fine clothes, and the attention you're getting is providing the confirmation you need to keep believing it.

Fact of the matter is, you could wear @#%^ all and you'd still get attention from ladies. As long as you believe that you're right in what you do and say, you'll have confidence in yourself. Just make sure it's always merited, otherwise confidence turns to arrogance.

What I'm saying is that you're right. Believing you're attractive makes you confident. Getting positive attention enhances that confidence. Doesn't matter what you wear, or how you look, though.

Edit: For the record, I think you're attractive. For a man. No homo, etc. You've got good genes.

Really Raw, you're fishing for dickpicks a little too obviously. I don't know why you're so focused on Theo's penis but I'm sure that just googling "penis" or "sexy penis" is going to get you results much quicker than obsessing over Theo's penis in this thread will.

It's really no more than repeating that Theo has a tiny penis ad nauseum.
I think for his latest post it helps if you know that pipi is a french word for penis.

LOL, i am messing with him (BTW i'm French).

Boobs aren't everything.

What's it with people thinking having a car is somehow equal to being grown up?

Oh yeah? Well, I bet you can't prove it...

Having a car kind of makes for less freedom, doesn't it?

On the other hand, if you don't have a car and you live in a metropolitan area, you can still get everywhere you need to go without trouble so not much freedom is gained by owning a car, if you live in a small rural town and you don't have a car you're @#%^ed and can't go anywhere without wasting hours so owning a car gets you a lot of freedom.

Even living in a city, you can be pretty much screwed if you want to go somewhere other than downtown, especially at non-peak hours. It'll take me 2x as long to get home if I leave in the middle of the day.

But you have more options is my point. I'm talking about pretty much not being able to go home or out at all should you not have a car. It might take longer, but you haven't lost the option, which to me is a higher degree of freedom. If my car* breaks down, we don't have to scramble to make arrangements to get anywhere. Like I said, personal view. Some people measure freedom based on how much convenience they gain by having it. I measure by how inconvenienced I'd be from losing it.

* Well, my wife's ...

Got to love Danish people -NSFW-

That manager wasn't too bright if he thought that $350 worth of free groceries wouldn't have drawn that much attention.

You filthy pervert!

They do but no cycling lanes and dumb 16 year olds (and other bad drivers) driving cars, would you want to cycle anywhere?

I'd rather cycle 100 miles than walk 20. Walking sucks.

I just kind of think having a car is like a piano, but with extra taxes - impossible to ship across borders/oceans/whathaveyou, and I need to have space to store it somewhere.

That being said, when I did live in rural areas, it wasn't very useful to have one. In the US, any place that was sort of cool was still 150 miles away and in the UK taking the car to go into the city was about as expensive as taking a taxi (and a lot more trouble) due to the congestion charge - and taxis in the UK are expensive.

So I just prefer to be in areas with either public transport of some sort (that I find acceptable) or taxis I can actually afford. Or both. Dubai is awesome...

I also prefer to be able to walk 5 miles somewhere if I feel like it. That's the problem with this place...

I guess that's a better way to put it. And yes, I know I have good jeans, I bought them at Nordstrom.

EDIT: On the topic of cars and freedom, I don't associate my car with freedom since work provides compensation for public transportation, but I still prefer having a car. Like was said, since I live in a metropolitan environment, it gives me much more freedom to go and do what I want (though if I were in Chicago still, I would never use my car unless I was in the suburbs, trains rock).

Yeah, I think if I did have a car in a car-friendly place, I would probably not want to drive much, anyway.

I don't have a car and right now I'm living in a smaller town than Espoo, where I have lived most of my life (that's the second largest city in Finland) and sometimes I wish I had a car.
But now that I'm moving back to Espoo in a couple of months, then it doesn't even matter, I can get everywhere quite fast with public transportation.

Also, how can you make Poison good? Like this

I guess so, but it'll be a looong time before I will have a family of my own.

Not since they invented birth control, grandpa.

Now you can jinx it and get away with it.
