1. You like UK/European models better, therefore you must hate all American women!
Lucy Pinder, Michelle Marsh, Lindsey Strutt, Amiee Rickards, Bryoni-Kate Williams, Carole Hunt, Nikki Friend, Jodie Gasson, Beau White (search Beau White Purestorm), Ivy Nedkova, Ruby Jones, Jenny Baker, Nadia Alkhashab, Georgina Darby. And more I'm forgetting right now.
So, what do those women have in common? They're all beautiful UK glamour models. And I like them so much better than almost all models that are here in the US. Why? They don't like they're going to fall over and die any moment due to lack of nourishment. In other words, they are curvy and chesty and look like they eat real foods.
Of course, people I know will tell me "Well if you hate American women so much, move to the UK then!" This is stupid. Because they need to realize I was talking about models, not non-famous regular women. There are plenty of beautiful, healthy-looking women in the US that aren't part of the modeling sector. Models in the US are pressured to be stick-thin, and whoever is in charge need to realize that men like curves, not skin and bones.
PS if you're going to do a google web/image search on those models - wait 'til you're at home, many links are NSFW! But you'll see why I like them.
2. You bought a Korean brand car? You're a hypocrite!
I said in another post I recently bought a Hyundai Sonata V6. It's a great car. I had to do something as my Sable was becoming a rolling repair bill.
Of course, people are calling me hypocrite because I always had a "buy American" stance when it comes to automobiles. I am getting flack from these people because I bought a "foreign" car.
I bought it because it was only car in my price range that had low mileage, a V6, less than 3 years old and was built in America. That's right, built in America. And no, Toyota was not on my list because they're now deathtraps. Plus my budget would only allow for a 4-cylinder 'yota.
Starting in 2006 V6 Sonatas are made in Montgomery, Alabama (and ALL Sonatas starting in 2011). By American factory workers. By contrast, the Ford Fusion is made in Mexico. My favorite car, the Dodge Challenger, is made in Canada with a Mexican engine and a German transmission.
So in essence, I did buy American.
3. You don't have the best luck getting women? Well then you're not allowed to have preferences! But yet for women it's okay....
I was talking to a guy a know some time ago and got to talking about certain preferences when it comes to the opposite sex. This person knows I always tend to go for the bustier women (I don't know why, but I've always gravitated to girls with bigger boobs). Well I made a comment "I would have a tough time being attracted to a girl if she had less than a C cup." This guy then proceeded to call me a "boobist."
I asked him, "you don't like brunettes, should I call you a hairist?" He said, "I don't have trouble getting women like you do. When you have a preference like that, people are going to get on your case for it."
I believe that all humans are wired to be attracted to certain attributes in a mate, male or female. Some guys like shorter women, some guys like blonde hair, some (like me) go for bigger boobs. Same for women - some will not date guys that are balding or are short. But even if a woman has not been on a date in 3 years, that's all okay. If a guy has bad luck and his preferences rule out certain women, then it's a bad thing.
No matter what a man's dating situation is, he should not feel like giving up something he wants in a partner. Because it's not healthy.
Another thing is race. I knew a white woman once who said that she would only go out with white Italian men. Nothing was said. I made a mention that even though I find black girls or arabic girls pretty, they're just not my type enough to date. Well I got called a "racist" for this (never mind that Arab isn't even a race), more than once. How is it that a woman can say that a certain ethnic group is not her type, but a man can't?
As I said before, it's not healthy for anyone to force an attraction to someone that they wouldn't normally go out with. Even if they have bad luck in the dating world.
4. Blocking ads? You're stealing money and bandwidth!
I'm continuing this from CS. In that thread someone commented that blocking ads is stealing money and bandwidth.
I leave my ad and script blockers (Adblock Plus and NoScript) enabled at all times, unless a site I'm visiting requires I turn them off and the content (ads included) is legit. Saying I'm "stealing money and bandwidth" is a bit silly as I can probably count how many times on my hand I have clicked on banner ads since I started surfing the web back in 1999. The rest of the time, I have ignored them.
Plus, nowadays it's more of a safety issue than a convenience issue. Sure having those items enabled speeds up page loads but since I have started using them I have not caught a virus/malware once. I do update my virus scanner and renew it when it's time but have never had to actually use it.
Consider this:
1. Even legit websites that police their ads display a rogue banner ad from time to time. The Wall Street Journal incident was one of the more famous (or really infamous) ones.
2. On the other hand, even if the site is legit, they may not care about what ads are showing up on their page as long as they are getting paid.
3. Merely viewing a page with a rogue banner ad can get you infected. That's because that ad could be injected with malicious code that is designed to do a "drive by" install of malware or bring up a popup that even if you click "cancel" it takes that as an OK to download the malware to your system. All this and you don't even have to click on the ad.
So it's either the site in question makes a penny off me or I keep my computer clean. I'll take the latter thank you very much. Oh, Firefox (the browser I use) has less than a 25% market share. Less than 10% of Firefox users probably know about Adblock Plus. Even less for NoScript. So I doubt the select people who are using these programs are really taking a big dent in the website's coffers.
