what is the proper way to think about friendzoning. should we have sympathy for the poor man who is heartbroken and lonely, or should we regard him as a villain for his lies to keep the subject of his affections close
some of my friends use the word friend zone unironically, it irritates me mainly because i actually like my friends even though friendship is apparently some kind of blood curse
mostly its due to loneliness and being steeped in media where a man aint nothin if he aint fuckin but these are intelligent, thoughtful guys usually, why the fuck cant they police their own thoughts
Agreed but they're probably lonely as a result of being 'thoughtful'

that's america, that's how debate is done in america, that's how we decide all of our questions from who blows as a singer to which blathering dictator we should oppose/depose/impose. we don't have beliefs, we don't have positions, we have reactions to other people's beliefs, to other people's positions.

yeah, if you do the trend search thing for communism or socialism or recession or really anything, the trend patterns are due to school. too much noise to see any underlying trend. but all that means is "there are students googling this", there is no other useful conclusion to draw

it's really sexist to think of that as "advice about women". the whole point of having meaningful relationships with other people whether or not you're going to have sex with them is actually, you know, relating

Actually, it's your genes pursuing a strategy to maximize their own propagation. The friendship holding pattern is an attempt to raise the chances of successful reproduction with a single mate, as opposed to a multiple mate, low average reproductive success strategy of clubbing and casual sex.

she don't climb ladders / or take the stairs
