I’m working on a longer post about you-know-who. In the meantime, enjoy these goats doing their best interpretation of the Men’s Rights movement.
But wait, there’s more!
And while we’re at it, here are some baby alpacas trying to figure out what a puppy is:
One of my favorite thing with goats is the version of Wrath of Khan where they replaced all of William Shatner’s lines:

Well, okay, it was just a bit from Family Guy but I love it still…
[Mocking MRA Mode]Well, obviously back when we were cave men – women could totally tell who was the alpha by how calloused his ass was, since it was considered at the time to be a sign of strength and hard work. Only betas would have uncalloused asses and thus forever friend-zoned, forced to become degraded regularly by the tribeswomen – whose only concern, as it is now, is to make as many babies as possible by fooling alphas into sleeping with them and then taking all their stuff as their own like parasites.[Mocking MRA Mode]
I think that’s pretty close! 😛
MARK MINTER HAS BEEN OUTED AS A PHONY ON RETURN OF KINGS.
I’m reading the article now. O_O What’s gonna happen? dun dun dun.
Oh, he proposed to a woman that’s deemed as unattractive in the eyes of the manosphere. *yawn* carry on.
Oh, it’s Marvelous Mark. I should have been able to figure that out. Brain fog.
Throughout evolutionary history, female humans have always chosen males with fat, flat buttock pads for their mating partners. The females recognized that their male offspring, should they inherit the rectangular buttock deposits, would have a better chance of survival; as they, like females, would be able to sit on hard surfaces.
Even if it were true that women cared more about random guys in the street being rich rather than just liking the look of a nice butt, looking for his wallet would be pointless anyway, since you can have all the money in the world and buy everything with plastic.
Unless her point was that all women are pickpockets.
Expert mammoth hunters strapped rocks to their butts for armor. Cave ladies were smitten by the male tool-building logic.
The rocks were squares, of course, because round things are feminine and not fit for mammoth hunting.
I’m enjoying all our evo-psych explanations, but I think Viscaria wins.
But, but – hard chairs! Does this mean Mr Tom “Delicate Botty” Martin is really a BETA???
@augochlorella, thank you!
@Kittehs, well what it definitely means is any woman not sleeping with Tom is a hyper famous wh*re.
Men who were good mammoth hunters were allowed to cut off a square patch of mammoth skin after every kill, and affix it to one of their buttock cheeks with tree sap. The best hunters could be easily identified by women, who would then redden their lips and nipples with berry juice to pretend to be more attractive than they were, those hypergamous bitches.
Hyper famous is iPhone for hypergamous.
Cool, I never thought I’d qualify! (Hypergamous, hyper famous, either will do.)
Alpacas are nuisances. It’s been at least twice that the alpacas that live near me have escaped and then menaced me while I’ve tried to tell the owner that their alpacas are out again. Very cute, though.
While we’re on goats and spurious hypergamy narratives, how could my girl Taylor not come up?
Well, the wallet thing is certainly … interesting. I’ve actually had the opposite problem: I don’t really want to stare at most men (unless they are wearing tights, type of thing, probably) — but I work in music, a lot of dudes wear very skinny pants, and one such dude always has a freaking *enormous* lump in his front left pocket area. It is so distracting that whenever he’s been on a stage in front of me, I’ve found myself staring at it — pretty much in distress, for fear that …. whatever it was … could be really uncomfortable to him for a lot of reasons (maybe a hernia situation or something).
Turns out, from further observation, that it’s really just his iPhone, keys, wallet, cough drops, stash bag, whatever he has in both of his pockets before he goes onstage — he is right-handed and wears his bass too low, so the body of it rests against his right hip and he transfers all his goodies to the left-hand side to compensate before he goes onstage. I guess the thought of leaving his shit in the van or the green room has never crossed his mind,
Regardless, I wonder how an MRA would interpret this situation — especially since I know I haven’t been the only one staring during some shows, and most of the other stare-ers I’ve caught in action have been (ostensibly straight) dudes. You could pretty much draw a laser line in the air from their eyeballs to this other guy’s crotch, and they didn’t look nearly as distressed or concerned as I did either. EVO-‘SPLAIN THAT ONE TO ME!

All I know is when when I’m surreptitiously checking out a guy’s nice ass, only to realize my view is partially obstructed by his goddamn wallet, the thing I feel is mild irritation. I like my nice back-ends presented symmetrically, dammit! Is it too much to expect random men on the street to read my mind and give a crap about what I expect from them?
In that case, pass it this way please!
I have nothing on topic to say besides that the alpaca yarn pecunium sent me was awesome and my frankengloves got some proper TLC with it.
Oh, my thoughts on wallet bluges? Doesn’t that make your back go all wonky, sitting at an angle with one ass check higher than the other?
Backstory here — my back thinks a 20~ curve is a good time, thus I cannot fathom why anyone would intentionally cause themselves to sit lopsided. (My back also currently thinks I’m an asshole for cleaning and rearranging my room, but that’s neither here nor there)
The lowquacks philosophy on the issue: front pockets are far more sensible for wallets in a jean setting, and with quite a few other types of trousers. They’ll stay in far better, be easier for you to grab and harder for others to, and you won’t have to sit on them.
The inevitable:
Yeah, just as one would not wish to rest one’s bass against one’s Ludens and baggie of drugs, you’d think one would not wish to rest one’s ass on one’s wallet … ?
Maybe it’s that, speaking of hernias, I have a herniated lumbar disc and can’t imagine sitting lopsidedly either. Unless someone has nerve problems on only one side of their body and needs specific support. It can’t be comfortable otherwise.
This is probably why more dudes should just carry purses: for their own well-being! The MRA should take on this cause — it would probably be more helpful to more men than their “activist projects” have been so far.
lowquacks: you’d think, right? Makes total sense. New suggested MRA slogan: “Front Pockets, Purse, Or Uncomfortable Seating — MAKE YOUR CHOICE!”
The low quacks philosophy is logical, and I direct all non-female persons desiring external storage to timbuk2, the makers of my bag, and one of it’s add on bags (what, I carry a lot of stuff, having a spare speaker, headphones, charging cables, etc at hand, is, well, handy. Also, a first aid kit, because I hate not having a bandaid when I need one)
And see, you can’t fit a speaker in your pocket! Nor an iPad, which is kinda a problem when it’s turned into your
Oodexternal brain.My wallet is perfectly sensible though.
Also, I keep my wallet in my front pocket.
Is that why I’m single?
