Half the guests cancelled in the time it took me to walk back from the store after buying all the food (and alcohol).

Edit: I know it's not Halloween yet. This is the week that worked for me.

Edit II: I love y'all. Did not realize Reddit had such a lust for mud pie/dirt. Another friend invited me out for drinks; life is good. AND I have the leftovers. Be well and stay spooky, friends.

"Answer the question, Tommy. Everybody knows the answer to it."

1. Harry Potter. The number of students in Hogwarts doesn't really make much sense. Rowling claimed there were 1000 students, but based on the number of named characters in Harry's year and if you consider it a normal year, the number should be closer to 280. Regardless, both numbers are quite low when you consider that Hogwarts is the only wizarding school in Britain, between 40 and 143 kids born per year, that's a quite low wizarding population to what is implied. And that's not even getting into how the school doesn't have enough teachers for a school this size, since each subject for several years is taught by just one teacher.
2. Star Wars. The size of the Clone Army and the Droid Army during the Clone Wars has been the cause of much debate over the years due to conflicting numbers given by canon and EU sources, numbers that are either too low for a galactic-scale conflict in the case of the clones, or absurdly high in the case of the droids, ranging from billions to trillions to even quintillions.
3. Naruto. The Allied Shinobi Forces was composed of 80,000 ninja from all 5 ninja villages plus the samurai. However, these numbers don't really make sense when you compare it to the number of applicants in the Chunin Exams and how less than 20 people pass each year.
4. The Flash. The speed feats of the Flash get a bit absurd and nonsensical, the most infamous being that time the Flash said he could perceive attoseconds. Or that time he evacuates over 500,000 people in South Korea one at a time 35 miles away from a nuclear explosion in .00001 of a microsecond. How the hell does this guy struggle with any villain again?
5. Dragon Ball. A commonly-cited (mostly as a joke) anti-feat for Goku is how he struggled to lift 40 tons (10 tons on each arm and leg) in base form during the Buu Saga. This despite the fact that he's supposedly stronger now yet in earlier chapters he could lift objects that were clearly far heavier.

there are almost a million of us in this sub. probably more who are approved users but haven’t actually joined. out of those of us who date men, how many are truly only dating the 6ft+, chiseled jawline, ultra-yoked dudes?

i have personally never found the “conventionally attractive” type of guy attractive. i’ve never dated a 6 foot+ tall man (or actually even a man taller than i am, tall girl problems am i right?), dudes who are too muscular are a turn off, i don’t need a chiseled jawline or a certain kind of cheekbone to feel attraction to someone. so why does every goddamn redditor want to prescribe this type of attraction to us? if you’re complaining about hypergamy, chances are your attitude is what’s putting people off, no?

i don’t respond to “woe is me” bullshit. i don’t give out pity dates because some jerk has a chip on his shoulder over the instagram baddie dating the gymbro he’ll never be. i date people who are funny, kind, trustworthy. i like a face with character.

i’m just so fucking tired of it gang. women are not a monolith, and neither are their preferences in datemates. get a fucking hobby, learn a couple jokes, treat other people with respect instead of flattening them out to one characteristic you think must apply to them because they present a certain way, and maybe you’ll find someone who responds to you.

i said it in a comment somewhere the other day and i’ll say it again. ugly is so much more a state of mind than it is a state of body. and yes these losers complaining about how women only date “chads” are ugly. but not because of what’s on the outside 🙄

LMAO EDDDIIIIIT: this post got the incels mad enough that they have taken the effort to search through my (hidden) post history so they can comment on year old posts. If you do this, you are obviously a loser who needs to go touch grass. Replying to a photo of my beautifully designed living room saying “aha! so you don’t date, no wonder hypergamy doesn’t exist to you” is literally not the gotcha you think it is.

editing for one additional note: i never spoke once on the habits of “all men”. in fact the men i’ve dated have very much not had this kind of perspective, and most of the men i know in real life don’t either. if you think my post has anything to do with some kind of “all men” claim, you’re literally telling on yourself.
