Or no sex

Probably if it were advantageous for me or my family

Very true :blush:

I’m not a car person but I have a thing for German engineering
Audis are great- reliable, good performance, sleek design
BMW i8 is better than any Audi though :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

That’s cold, like evil genius cold! Or maybe you’re a “sapiosexual”

No men can consistently dress like Steve Jobs and be taken seriously. Or it’s a lot harder for them to be taken seriously.

Steve Jobs’s dress is tolerated because he is one of the richest men in the world, so people are afraid to tell him he dresses like a dweeb.

Hmm
 I never knew that was a thing!

I guess it’s time to sculpt an attractive bank account then :joy::rofl::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I’m here to confess that you and some of our other posters have really helped me understand my Aunt’s more unusual behaviors in the context of a struggle for power and money, and thus better accept them. It’s obvious she’s accepted some of our more unusual behaviors, so it’s only fair.

I was also really surprised to learn that Chinese people don’t talk like Dynasty Warriors 3. Like at all. I was equally shocked to learn that it isn’t pronounced “Cow Cow”.

Cao cao (the two have different intonations) is the best! He even mentored the general who ended up winning The whole 3 kingdoms thing. Unlike the other two, he had real skill and didn’t have to rely as much on subordinates to do his bidding.

I’ve recently been getting into more and more Chinese history, which is such a fascinating behemoth of a subject. I’m just scratching the surface still, with far too much of my knowledge coming from video games.

On that note, I’ll confess that I’m now up to 50 hours of playtime in Total War: Three Kingdoms. I could have spent that time studying actual Chinese history, but I preferred crafting my own narrative where Ma Teng builds an unstoppable steppe army of horse archers, Ma Chao marries Sun Ren and all of China falls to my strategic and tactical brilliance.

Her husband (Liu bei) was a useless pussy. The only reason he got so far was because geniuses like zhu geliang, and amazing warriors like Zhang fei felt the need to serve him.
She was actually supposed to be a honey trap spy planted by her brother sun quan

Whoever said you should date an academic may be wrong about you


For the record, Liu Bei’s in-game bonus is “Unity”, which is basically a buff you get for being a nice guy. Like, super-nice. You get Zhang Fei and Guan Yu as starting generals though, which makes him overall easy to play.

I’ve also been reading about the Jin Dynasty. I got there from learning about the Mongols, which is some of the coolest history I’ve dove into recently. Such epic clashes on such epic scales, and it was all recorded very well.

We talk like that guy who did all the voice overs for all those Saturday afternoon Kung Phooey movies of yore. Note that the lips move before the words are heard, because we speak the Devil language with the forked tongue, which works differently

I know exactly what you mean.

I’m here to confess that racism is not dead at all. My friends and I would do that shit ALL OF THE TIME before rough-housing on the trampoline, wrestling in the grass and even pretending to Kung-Fu fight in the basement or hosting our own version of the Kumite, etc.

You Killed My Father.

But I Thought You Were Dead!?!?

Prepare To Die!!!

All with our mouths moving in weird contortions.

Please, on behalf of myself, my ancestors, and everyone who shares my heritage, my prejudices, my bias, my childhood street and what I’m told is my seething, unconscious hatred of all people who aren’t white I guess, please accept my deepest apologies for all of my past transgressions, microaggressions and other forms of oppression.

We thought it was fun. We thought it was cool to pretend to be Chong Li, and mimic his ways. I now understand how wrong we were, and the tremendous harm you’ve suffered because of it.

My problem with him is that he has no skill of his own.
The modern day equivalent would be a ceo of a successful company who gets credit for running the company when in reality the cfo and board of directors are doing all the work

Well, I did train Karate for a decade because of the overwhelming peer pressure from those of your ilk. Why Karate and not Kung Fu? Because the Japanese wiped the floor with the Chinese in all things martial. @dt79 Fuck Wing Chun; biatches.

All you need to do is date a little bit and I think you’ll do a fine job sorting things out. As long as you don’t fall for the usual silly girl traps, like propping up a useless pussy or irrationally latching on to the first guy to press a button or two of yours, you should be A-OK.

As a man who always has been attracted to “curvier”, hourglass shaped women, I also cannot explain the fascination. My wife hates that she is gifted in that area, but it’s a major plus for me.
Her intelligence just makes her attractive physical features even better.

That’s what I DID too when playing with my Indian friends. It’s Michael Winslow’s fault.

The Manchus turned us into wusses, that’s why lol. They were the first to officially outlaw practicing any form of fighting styles and organized matches. They burned down the Shaolin Temple ffs lol. Actually, that’s what happened in many parts of Asia. People like the Javanese were smart enough to disguise their fighting styles as dances like silat(what the guy from The Raid and Wu Warriors practices. The modern version used in actual tournaments is fucking brutal.). Chinese decided to go all the way into dancing. That’s why kungfu evolved into something for display, not for any practical use.

Tai Chi used to be like some form of grappling or wrestling style taught to soldiers in basic training. Now it’s for old people in parks who find yoga too taxing. Some basic principles of grappling are still noticeable, done in extreme slow motion.

China actually has it’s own legit martial art, though, which isn’t a traditional martial art. It’s called Sanda. It’s basically kickboxing with some wrestling and kungfu kicks thrown in. Cung Le from the UFC practices this.

Their entire written language was appropriated from us lol.

Fuck Wing Chun.
