This x 100,000.
I don’t feel sad for him at all though.
Heck, even if Shagnasty completely invented the whole story, it’s still pretty disturbing that he’d present a tale of sexual assault as a hilarious prank that we should all admire him for. It’s even more troubling that he still either can’t understand or is unwilling to acknowledge why anyone would be disturbed by this, and has tried to claim that it’s just a bunch of prudes freaking out over a harmless kiss between friends.
The fate of the daughters concerns me. Who has custody?
Are there really daughters or is that part of the whole story he has created. Nobody, well maybe a few (Trump), would talk about their daughter as the perfect date. And, 30hrs of gymnastics a week! Only Olympic hopefuls would practice that much. She speaks perfect french, plays chess, and is perfect in every way. Nah! I think my kids are perfect, but I really know their faults. No kid is that great.
He’s referred to himself as a single parent, but he probably just sees them a few hours a week and views them as chick magnets. :dubious:
Just another fact check and nothing more. My youngest daughter is a competitive gymnast and has two former Olympic coaches working with her. She was never forced into it and can drop out at any time. It is mortgage payment expensive and a huge time drain for everyone involved but it is her choice. I took her to a very large tournament today and she came in 1st on floor and beam but didn’t do as well on bars or vault.
That sent her into hysterics because 2nd place or lower are all just losers in her mind. If you think girls are nicer than boys, you have never met competitive gymnasts. They can make Mean Girls look like a light comedy but I still like most of them. They are all ultra-competitive at the higher levels and have trained countless hours for years and they don’t like anything less than perfection. I always have to give the “just do your best and be a good sport” talk before any tournament but it hasn’t really sunk in yet. I was drowning in a sea of estrogen this morning including the mothers.
She really can speak French fluently because she has been in a rare public schools French immersion program since kindergarten and has been to France multiple times. Her mother majored in French in college.
She plays chess because her French immersion friends play Chess together during breaks at school. I still make sure to beat her to let her know who is boss but at least she knows how to play.
I never said or even implied that I wanted to sleep with my own daughter. That is sick and offensive to claim. What I said was that I wondered why many women about 40 years old don’t have the skills of an 11 year old.
I have joint custody and my daughters’ mother travels a whole lot for work and pleasure (she is in London right now) and will disappear again in a couple of weeks. Rinse and repeat. She isn’t a big fan of sticking around. Like I said earlier, I love daughters, mothers, grandmothers, female coworkers and lots more women. It is just the wife, date and girlfriend roles that tick me off.
And you people think he has trouble relating to women. Shame on you!
Your imaginary daughter has the same role in your bullshit fantasies as your made-up mother, your fictitious Mammy and your alleged dates: to reflect vicarious glory upon you. Here’s a hint: for future verisimilitude, try describing them as actual people instead of collections of accomplishments.
Who knows? The problem with constant bull shitters is that you can’t believe anything they say. I’d want a second opinion if he were to say that the sky is blue.
Someone upthread said he was consistent in his stories but I don’t think so. There are plenty of contradictions. He makes for a good 'le Internet Tough Guy who will wait for years to get revenge on someone late for a date, but he’s still best buddies with his ex who regularly beat him up. He’s so prim and proper that he’ll wait for the second date for a kiss, but he cuts and pastes a tale of sexual assault. He’s 100% heterosexual but did circle jerks in high school.
Most of these tales are manufactured out of whole cloth, of course, but this is how he portrays himself.
Habitual bullshitters believe that they are smarter than everyone else. Sound like anyone we know? Mostly because their normal audience is too polite to call them on their obvious BS, they believe they far more clever than they actual are. This is why he has to be seen as so intelligent.
“Verisimilitude”? There is a word you don’t see everyday. How very. The inside joke is that is all true. I am not that creative. I can only write about what I live.
(I realize that I just failed again on my claim not to respond to this thread. Negative attention is like a squirrel to peanut butter to me.)
I don’t think I am a very good person at all but I am a thrill seeker and have had lots of interesting experiences because of it. What I write is true and a lot of it comes from the fact that I don’t have the sense god gave a goose except in professional matters.
My daughter said to me in the car on the way to the gymnastics meet today - “Dad, you would like my science teacher”. I said, “I am sure I would, I like science”. She said, “That isn’t the reason. She is psycho but fun and sort of sweet just like you are”.
“Thank you sweetie”.
OMG, I cannot listen to any more.
But they get so indignant when their bullshit is doubted. Except that they can’t admit they’re indignant, so they’ll pretend lofty amusement.
It seems to me that people are outraged more that he is blunt and gives a realist perspective on his dating preferences (which many people share and there is nothing wrong with having) than any actually offensive things he has said or claimed to have done. Or perhaps he is not repentant enough about some “youthful indiscretions.” Assuming anything he’s saying is real and not a character to rile people up, his failure to perpetuate bullshit Disney Fantasyland ideas really, really bothers people for some reason. It’s a shame for someone to be shamed for being honest about his perfectly OK sexual preferences.
So… he’s just saying what we’re all thinking?
Some people on this board automatically jump all over a OP if they don’t like where the OP is either coming from, or what the OP says.
Whether what he posts is actually true or a fabrication isn’t the point – the point is that he posts it and sometimes comes off as smugly proud when he does. People don’t like that and aren’t afraid to say so.
I can’t answer for Shag but I know many people online who make it a profession to post stuff which garners them attention in some way. Perpetuating this thread is a perfect example :shrug:
So you call everyone in this thread a liar, and purport that you can read their minds and know they’re really upset due to sex shaming. You pass off the things they have pointed out as wrong as acceptable or not really the issue, and pass of sexual assault as a mere youthful indiscretion and bragging about it as “not repentant enough.”
There is no reason to think the issue is anything other than what people in this thread have said it is. They have said it, and provided the evidence for it. From the original “misogynistic prick” to lying to make himself look better to being creepy and hurting people to bragging about sexual assault.
None of this stuff that is acceptable. Why wouldn’t that be the issue people are concerned about?
Also, you can’t call him blunt and praise him for it while acting like everyone else being blunt about hating him are doing bad things.
He has made his sexual preferences the business of this board by constantly lamenting how women fail to meet his ridiculous standards. Why shouldn’t he be ridiculed in return? No one is obligated to respect the guy for being honest about who he disdains and why. You think him airing his opinions is something that we should all just accept and applaud?
The most pathetic thing he’s admitted to is that he looks down on men in relationships with old, unattractive women. I call it pathetic because it’s clear he wants the intimacy and comfort these men have in their lives, but it’s like his ego tries to convince us (and himself) that his envy is really contempt for these men. It is so transparent it is almost pity-inducing.
The only thing worse than negative attention is no attention, eh?
Gotta fill that hole.
Drama llama, Shag. Drama llama.
What skills, exactly, are women in their 40s lacking that your 11 year old daughter has? Being bi-lingual? No, that can’t be it. Being a gymnast? Ah, now we’re a little closer to the real issue. Could it be that you resent the fact that the average 40something woman is not going to be as supple, flexible, and energetic as your 11 year old daughter? I mean, of course they’re not. In gymnast world, 25 is over the hill. They retire young for a reason. And no, I don’t think you’re a pedophile that’s actually sexually attracted to your own daughter, but it is very ick that you named her as what your perfect date would be like. Gross, dude.
The fact that this pit thread was met with close to unanimous approval should tell you something. Just consider that maybe, possibly, it is you who are the problem, you have unrealistic expectations, and you have an antiquated, horrific view of what a woman should bring to a relationship. And that will probably never change. You will never find true happiness, at least when it comes to falling in love and the joy that can bring.
