Some rants all rolled into one, sorry about the length....

"The nerve of them" - a statement uttered by people when you explain why you have a preference or express disappointment. Two cases in point:
1. Car choices:
Co-worker asked if I won 60 grand to spend on a car, what would it be. I told him I would wait until Dodge releases the 2011 Challenger SRT, as they're putting in a new engine that has more power and better mileage (6.4L HEMI). Plus I'll have money left over for modifications.
Said CW goes, "Why not a BMW 5 series? With the Challenger, the interior looks like shit, it handles like shit and the dealer network is crap."
Now don't get my wrong - BMWs are good cars. But for the same price as a loaded V8 challenger, I would only be able to get a 6-cylinder 5 series (Yeah I know I can get a base model 550i but stripped!). Not only that, I would hate to be included in a group of people that has the "I drive a BMW so I'm better than you!" mentality (I know some don't, but most do). After all, us domestic car guys respect other people's rides.
Said CW told me, "Yep they're assholes for wanting a car that's well made, handles well and has a great dealer network. The nerve of them!"
2. As a Jewish man....
One of the things I'm always being told is, "Why don't you find a nice jewish girl?"
Okay, I would love a nice jewish girl. I really would. Jewish girls are usually very attractive and have goals about themselves.
Sadly - and this was told to me more than once - that by the 3rd date many jewish girls ask to see your paycheck and if you can't produce it or you don't make enough for them, they're out of there.
I was in an auto repair shop once and a jewish woman was there with her kids, and this subject came up. She said it best: "It's because their mothers tell them to go for the gold, pretty much."
This can be evidenced by visiting a jewish dating site like Jdate. Like other sites Jdate has a section where you can list things you want in a mate. Many of those girls - who are not even in school or barely in school themselves - list that they want a man with a bachelor's or even a doctorate. If that doesn't shout out "I just want money," I don't know what does.
I told this to someone who snapped, "You self-hater! Man, they're such gold-diggers for wanting a man who has goals and is able to be financial stable. The nerve of them!"

"They can feel what you're thinking" - don't know how, but anyway....
I'll use the "sex by eyeball" thing from a previous thread of mine. For a refresher, it's when you look at a girl and envision kissing her, undressing her and having sex with her. Some call it "undressing with the eyes." To me it's a pretty natural human thought process and pretty much all straight men do it. Whether it's the hot morning traffic reporter on the news, or the attractive woman in the office, if a man is attracted to her, he'll have this thought about them.
A member here said "a woman can feel a man undressing her with his eyes." Excuse me, but how? If it's a thought process, then how can anyone - male or female - feel it? To me, unless you're the cop from Heroes, you can't. It's a thought process! And before any of you call me sexist, women do the "sex by eyeball" thing too. But you don't hear us guys complaining.
I'll repeat something I said in the NOW thread, with a bit more of it that I forgot. The morning show hosts on a popular radio station was talking about sex by eyeball and a woman called in and said she can't go anywhere in a tank/halter top without men doing sex by eyeball on her, and in her words "it's gross." The first DJ said "either go to a gay bar or cover up because any straight man will have this thought." The second DJ said, "If it's a thought process than how do you know they're doing it?" The woman said, "You're not a woman. When a guy looks at you, you can so tell they want to grab hold of your straps and pull your top and pants down. Ewww." The DJ then goes, "First saying ewww is not very mature, secondly you're not a mind reader so how do you know they want to pull your top down? Even if they are, how do you know?" The woman told them "you just don't get it." I guess we don't.

You pay money for an adult paysite? It's porn and you're a loser!
I have mentioned a glamour subscription site called OnlyTease in the past. Yes, I subscribe to it. I feel it's no worse than a subscription to Playboy or Maxim. Except unlike playboy or Maxim, there's no articles.
Yes, the models get topless/nude (OT is based in the UK and nudity is not a big deal over there), but one thing I like about it is that unlike many other "glamour" sites the models don't go from being clothed to naked in a matter of 5 pictures, they stay clothed for the majority of the set and "tease" their way out of their outfits (Hence the name onlytease). The other thing I like is that there's no "porn" of any kind on the site. Just topless pics and the occasional nude ones.
Yet whenever I mention "paysite" people think "porn" and said, "You pay for it? Get it for free!" First, the free stuff gives you viruses and is just the same sex crap over and over again. Second, I have been called a loser over this - well then you might as well call Playboy and Maxim subscribers losers as well.
Finally, when I release my model tribute montages on Youtube or Dailymotion OT has never had a problem with them. Another glamour site DMCA'ed one of my montages one day when half of it was a tribute to one of it's own damn models. OT never has, as a matter of fact lets me post them on their forum when I release them. That's another reason why I subscribe.
