They’d rather eat avocado toast. These fuckers have killed diamonds. WTF? You used to could get a woman to do anything, if you gave her diamonds! This is obviously performance art, and it’s honestly pretty _good_ performance art. Complaining about killing golf, diamonds, orange juice, and captain crunch? This is obviously a mocking take on that whole genre of absurd “Millenials are killing X!” article. Surely you’d have to be a gigantic idiot to think that the death of at least golf and diamonds is a bad thing, right? And this guy clearly isn’t - after all, he says it himself: > [@](#): > > They mistake my rationality, assertiveness, ambition, and confidence for something more sinister. See, he’s rational, so clearly this is just performance art. He even picked a name where part of it can quickly and easily be pattern-matched to “turd”. I applaud your excellent post, good sir. After this recent line of hits, there’s nowhere to go but down, and I encourage you to end your career as a performance artist before you become a washed-up has-been that everyone hates like **Clothahump** or Nickelback. ---

Just read through the blackmail thread, and the thread titled _[“Wore some pajama pants with cute frogs, was approached by white nationalists.”](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=819048)_ I have my doubts that “three hip looking guys” [sic] would accost someone in the supermarket and just start quizzing them, apparently for quite some time. **DorkTard** claims they went through a laundry list of items, asking if he agreed with them. Here was one of them: “Being low in openness to experience, high in conscientiousness, high in extraversion, low in agreeableness, and high or very low in neuroticism.” I can picture someone writing like that, but not pausing to construct a sentence like that in conversation – and not with a stranger who would’ve walked away halfway through their five-minute list. ---

> [@Rick\_Kitchen](#): > > “Soy boy” is the new made-up far right hate speech for male feminists, because apparently soy contains estrogen which turns men into lady boys. No, seriously, I just encountered this term the other day. What’s funny is that “soy boy,” “cuck” and the like are actually pretty pathetic insults, as their targets tend to go ‘what’ and not ‘alas good sir, you have wounded my pride’. It’s also one of those handy signs where if someone calls you a ‘cuck’ or ‘soy boy’, you can safely dismiss everything else they say because they’re in some kind of far-right imaginary realm. ---

> [@CalMeacham](#): > > What means this “SJW”? My understanding of the term Social Justice Warrior is that it is used by bigots to describe people who object to bigotry while not being the subject of that bigotry themselves. So if one was to object to someone being racist, but one wasn’t black, then in the racist’s eyes one would be a Social Justice Warrior. ---

> [@Enginerd](#): > > That’s rough. Sounds like they need better marketing. It’s kind of telling to me that guys like him tend to fixate on stuff like Hooters and strip clubs as a sort of peak masculinity thing. Don’t get me wrong, I love boobs, but while a strip club is fun once in a while, paying that kind of money on the regular didn’t appeal to me back when I was a loner, and certainly doesn’t appeal to me now that I actually encounter real boobs regularly. IMO if you are regularly dropping cash on them, or idealizing them as a place to Really Be a Man, there’s something significantly off in your relationship with women. Side note, Twin Peaks is a really odd thing for DuckTurd to throw in there, because it’s a fairly small chain (61 restaurants nationwide) that most people won’t recognize. I think if you ask ‘do you like Twin Peaks’, 90% of the responses that aren’t ‘what is that’ will be about the 90s TV show that recently got reborn. I had to look them up to figure out what DuckTurd was talking about. ---
