There’s a new blog out there that I think a lot of you will appreciate. I would say “enjoy,” but your enjoyment of it will no doubt alternate with despair over the future of the human race. Which makes it sort of like this blog!
Anyway, the blog is called PUA.txt, and, as the name suggests, it features horrible quotes taken from forums and other websites where would-be pickup artists like to congregate.
My favorite quote, of all those featured there, is probably this exceedingly whiny one from The Venusian Arts forum, in which a PUA by the name of Rick Tiero defends another commenter who refers to women as sluts. While other PUAs there are annoyed by the slut basher – because calling women “sluts” makes them defensive and less likely to want to have sex with PUAs — Rick has a different take. Addressing himself to one of the forum’s few female members, he writes:
Don’t try to judge him, you don’t know what the fuck he’s been through. Stuff like that can come from fucked up parents or even kindergardens that forcefeed small boys with religion and evil feminist propaganda, totaly destroying someones sexlife in the later years.
Of all the guys in here, very few are here by choice. You feminists have created spank for your own ass by compromising genderoles for ages now, don’t bitch about it. You women ruined our fun first by being a somewhat moral police yourselves! It is called bad karma.
No man wants to do whats wrong with women, they have been taught wrong by a society in genderless chaos created by the feminist movement, a movement so selfish and evil that I like to compare it to the new age nazis. In this society women are expected to not show body because a man is supposed to like her for her personality, like a woman likes a man.
It is doomed to fail, because people are not built that way. I bet OP has seen alot of porn and wouldn’t mind fucking all of the women in that room, even the fattie, bacause it’s nice for a change. Deep inside of him there is a good PUA just waiting to surface anytime soon.
And you women should really be more understanding to prude men! Put your self in my shoes! I can search for vegetables on the internet and find “Gorgeous teen playing with a cuecumber” And for me being a guy, that is something I’d like to watch!
Man! I can’t even go to the store and buy myself some bread without walking by the magazines with naked women all over it. It’s like wherever i turn there is a pair of titties mocking me, looking at me with it’s poking eyes. In the local park they have made this figure of a naked woman, but it’s made of stone. You women don’t have to go through any of that.
Yep, that’s right, it’s that old argument: Sexy women oppress men with their sexiness!
The most horrifying comment I’ve found on PUA.txt so far is probably this one from RooshV’s forum about the pros and cons of having sex with disabled women:
Yeah, I’m not even going to touch that one.
There’s also a PUA.txt twitter account, which features still more horrible quotes. (I only wish it provided links to the sources of the quotes like the blog does.) Here are some of its greatest hits so far.
PS: Do any of you ladies know where the nearest bank is? I need to drop off some gold.
So here’s my beef: Making fun of assholes is awesome, obviously, but the whole Tumblr cottage industry of online mockery slips very quickly from making fun of people because they need to get taken down a notch to making fun of people because I’m cool and awesome and not like them.
Mocking people for being douchebags is fine. Mocking people for being stupid? Waaaay sketchier. And it quickly moves on to mocking people for being part of subcultures or online communities I’m not part of, liking things I don’t like, and generally not being me because I’m better than them.
I’m sorry dude. I can’t take a guy who says “titties” seriously. Are you thirteen?
And no, breasts aren’t mocking you, they just happen to be there, like the rest of my body parts.
As for the abelism post, I’d consider his personality a bigger stumbling block to get over than the disabilities he’s asking about in terms of dating. And I notice that he requires the disabled to be tens as well.
Mine are, but I sharpie’d “ur a loser” on them in an imitation of Comic Sans… *troll*
I am totally using the Irritable Bowel Syndrome line next time I’m trying to get rid of somebody.
This was one of the first things I ever read on the internet.
The T.W.I.N.K.I.E.S. Project
And, yeah katz, that NaNoWriMo tumblr does seem kind of shitty.
@katz, but we can totally mock this tumblr, right?
Real Dolly Madison Zingers are 1,000 times better than anything Hostess.
And the old real Drake’s cakes, back when they came in the foil packages, surpassed everything.
*footstomp*
Cloudiah: Naturally, although it’s almost not so much terrible as bemusing.
Where can I buy cuecumbers?
You have to join the queue at the pool table to buy cuecumbers.
Not according to Owlslave (guess he doesn’t love us anymore, I thought for sure the election posts would bring the froth).
Freitag: my, ahem, “titties” (ugh, that word) are totally pointing and laughing at RIck.
I think Tastycake has the best snack cakes.
“Genderless chaos”? Does this person even live on earth?
@ whataboutthemoonz – Cuecumbers? There are none to be had, not even for ready moeney.
@ katz – yeah, that nano thing was very mean spirited.
Too bad the site seems to mock Nanowrimo people a little bit at times…makes me sad.
I see someone already covered the nanowrimo thing. My bad. (MUST READ COMMENT THREAD)
No worries, MKlein, I’ll never be annoyed at people for extra posts agreeing with me XD
It suggests to me that the owner picks on PUAs because they’re easy targets rather than because they’re bad people.
I do hope the guy never visits Florence. I don’t think he could survive coming eyeball to toe with Michaelangelo’s statue of David…
I like the comments on the Twinkie story. Guy writes a reasonable argument about how everyone fucked up and now there’s no more Twinkies until the trademarks are sold, and the comments go straight from “Unions destroy all that they love!” to “If the government hadn’t banned trans fats, this never would have happened.”
All that stuff tastes shittier than I remember, but I assume that’s because I grew up. Things definitely got smaller to stick to price points and probably to make that nutrition information box look a bit better, still a genuine Twinkie was an indulgence when I was a kid and they haven’t gotten cheaper or healthier since the 80s, even as consumers got pickier and, recently, broke-er.
“As for the abelism post, I’d consider his personality a bigger stumbling block to get over than the disabilities he’s asking about in terms of dating. And I notice that he requires the disabled to be tens as well.”
I enjoyed his classy reference to ‘the deaf girl voice.’ And the idea that having a beauty contest specifically for disabled people is part of the ‘everybody wins’ mentality that is just so distasteful. I mean, because obviously there’s only one legitimate beauty contest that counts for reals, and everyone else’s tiaras and scholarships are just pity parties.
Hi inurashii! Hi katz!
O_o why would you mock NanoWriMo? It seems a really random thing to mock, like… I dunno, people on roller skates or something.
I guess my ghosts of breasts past found somebody else to haunt. I’d feel bad for him, except I’m sure glad they’re away fro me!
And I’ve never had a Twinkie. I’m… kinda afraid of them.
I DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY’RE MADE OF. o_o
@LBT
From the pictures, I was assuming shaving foam and bathroom sponge. Ye gods… *reflux*
Hi LBT!
Why are there so many November-specific fads/events/whatever? There’s No-Shave November, No-Fap November, National Novel Writing Month, Movember, Nothing But Black Metal November…
Just the “no” going well with things?
*wikipedia, like alll the good students 😛 *
TWINKIES CONTAIN:
… I think I prefered my theory…
