If you’ve ever wondered what the carefree, unencumbered-by-women-and-their-cooties life of a true Man Going His Own Way looks like, you’re in luck, as the video above presents ACTUAL FOOTAGE of just this. Apparently, Going Your Own Way looks an awful lot like Hanging Around and Pestering, at least if you’re Vention1MGTOW, a YouTube videoblogger who regularly offers up little glimpses into his awesome life.
In the video above, our hero, in between fits of giggles, gleefully relates how he “trolled” a cutsey YouTube video showing a high school coach who’d gotten his team to help him propose to his girlfriend. Vention1MGTOW did his best to ruin the mood by posting “a few strategic comments” (that is, endless screeds) attacking marriage and women and, well, you know the drill. My favorite line from his comments, which he proudly reads aloud:
I’m sure some old wrinkled up, STD, ex-party party girl would love to move into my home and begin diverting my income for her own use but I don’t really see a benefit for me in that deal.
I hate to break it to you, dude, but I’m pretty sure even the most thoroughly wrinkled-up ex-party girl would rather die alone and unloved than have to put up with you. Hell, I’m pretty sure the only reason your dog (he has a dog) puts up with you is because he has no idea what you’re saying.
If you check out the coach’s video, you can see that a whole swarm of MGTOWers have descended upon the comments. Vention1MGTOW’s comments are actually some of the more polite from that bunch.
Vention1MGTOW – from his choice of snack (ramen noodles) to his, er, casual sense of interior decoration – seems like such a perfect embodiment of MGTOWer stereotypes that it’s hard to believe he’s for real. But he is. He’s got 82 videos up on his YouTube channel detailing his various obsessions: MGTOW, Bitcoins, hugelkultur gardening, doomsday prepping. Oh, and he’s got a Segway.
If the video above merely whetted your appetite for more of Vention1MGTOW’s trolling, here’s a video in which he successfully infiltrates the YouTube comments for an Enya video in order to inform the women there that they’re all going to get old and ugly and no one will want them.
I may have to come back to him again later. He’s a charmer.
Many thanks to the unknown hero on Reddit who brought this fellow to my attention.
Really. I think it has more to do with women drivers being more conscientious right off the bat. We don’t cry our way out of tickets because we don’t do what it takes to GET those tickets in the first place. And the reason we don’t do it is because there’s always some asshole out there waiting for his chance to chuckle about what bad drivers all the widdle feather-headed women are…usually while speeding, texting and getting stinking drunk simultaneously.
I think I responded to the thoughtcatalog link on the wrong thread. Sorry, need coffee.
leatapp – yes, they go into the most amazing mental contortions (pretty impressive since they’ve so little to work with) to avoid acknowledging that they are the problem. They’re the common denominator in all these failed or nonexistent relationships. They’re the ones setting off the Toxic Fail warning signals in every woman they meet. They would sooner die than admit what’s wriggling around in the back of their minds, eating away at them: the knowledge that it’s not that women don’t enjoy or desire sex, it’s women don’t enjoy or desire sex with them.
Clarification: the one speeding, texting and drinking behind the wheel is the chuckleheaded dude who thinks women are the bad drivers, because feeeemales. And HORMONES.
No, I never get out of tickets, but I also usually don’t try to. I tried going to traffic court once and arguing my case when I got ticketed for a rolling stop in the middle of nowhere, and lost. (That was some trifling smalltown BS right there. Ugh.)
Pay your fine and move on as quickly as possible, I say.
Mostly, I figure the occasional ticket is just part of the cost of driving. Haven’t gotten one in a couple of years, though, probably ’cause I don’t drive as much now that I am in town as I did when I was living in the boonies.
Bina – what’s the bet these imbeciles think it’s female privilege that makes insurance firms give women drivers lower premiums? Wouldn’t be anything to do with female drivers being overall safer than male drivers, now would it, hmm?
I’ve never wanted to drive (apart from the occasional yen to be able to go on trips into the country). Partly it’s practicalities, partly it’s because there are so many fuckwits on the roads, but partly it’s because I suspect I’d be a lousy driver – either timid or temperamental. Either way, keeping off the roads is a better idea!
Fibinachi quoted: “While the definition of promiscuity is the same for men as it is for women, the ease of access and the resulting consequences are vastly different for the two genders, which often leads women and beta males to the false assumption that there is a double standard.”
Do I understand right that the argument that the ease of access makes it worse if women sleep around, is about the opposite of the truth?:
Does ease of access mean men have to chase women to be able to sleep around, and women often find themselves sleeping with guys who persued them, by just saying yes? That would be like the difference between: “I hit a pedestrian, and had to swerve and chase him to get to hit him” and “I hit a pedestrian because he was just there, suddenly.” Surely men having to work to convince women to sleep with them would be no reason to blame women more?
As for the consequences of female sleeping around being worse – The usual heterosexual tryst involves a male and a female who sleep around, and any negative effect from it should be blamed on the both of them? How on earth could anyone reason that when Jenny and Joe sleep together out of wedlock, the bad social effect comes from Jenny’s actions and not Joe’s?
The only way to compare the effects of female sleeping around vs. male sleeping around, is to study gay and lesbian intercourse – hetero intercourse contains both the things you need to weigh separately for the comparison.
If these guys have trouble with “crazy” women, it’s because they drove those women ’round the bend with all their impossible expectations of what a “good” woman is supposed to be.
And a “bitch bin”? Really? Well, good luck trying to keep any of my effects around as trophies, you weirdos…because lipsticks, hair accessories and stuff all COST, and the hell I’m leaving any of them around for some dude to show off as evidence of his manly, manly manhood.
No, of course not. And like I said, we’re better at it because we know we have a lot more to lose by driving like fuckwits. We didn’t come by this privilege easily, and we’re not about to jeopardize it by being careless and stupid, either.
Same here. I had a panic attack the day of my test, and never did make my licence…although I should get the damn thing, because I live in the boondocks and it’s not getting easier to walk, bike, etc., with this whacked-out weather we’re getting, thanks to global warming and all.
I think I puked my mom out of a ticket once in early elementary school. She was pulled over for speeding in a residential district (like 35 MPH) while taking me home from a family party (which we left because I had thrown up). I had (undiagnosed) kidney disease at the time, and was throwing up daily, and I think I did it in front of the cop.
He gave her a lecture about children’s safety and let us on our way.
I doubt it had anything to do with me being a girl, though.
I was just watching the Twilight Zone and I think I found the man going his own way that all the others wish they could be. This kid is totally alpha male.

‘On the topic of right-wing assholes, Doug Phillips, one of the founders of one of the big “Christian Patriarchy” organizations, Vision Forum, resigned a few months back over an “inappropriate relationship.”’
Thanks for this, wordsp1nner.
Isn’t this religious patriarchy crap just an awesome racket for sex abusers of all sorts. It gives them a total and absolute freedom to abuse, with a built-in blame-the-victim (because Eve) permanent feature as an additional assurance of that freedom.
The sad thing, among so many, is the frightening number of women who are co-opted into this racket and willingly support and defend it (like Phillips’ wife, for example).
I got pulled over once, and cried, and was not ticketed.
A) I got pulled over for a completely bullshit non-reason (I had allegedly rolled through a right turn on red 5 miles before the cop pulled me over)
B) I had had a really great night, the first in a long time, and this cop ruined it for me by pulling me over for a bullshit non-reason right outside my apartment complex.
C) I did not cry on purpose. I am a person who cries when I experience strong emotions, and that night I cried. I would rather have not cried, because I find it to be embarrassing.
D) The cop chose not to give me a ticket and I don’t know why. It was his free choice.
Sometimes people who are women cry. It is not on purpose, it is not to try to emotionally manipulate you, and it is not a symptom of women drivers being or not being “conscientious”. I am a careful driver and I also cry easily and I’m also a woman. These facts are not related.
I really resent the idea that crying is emotionally manipulative. I would rather be doing almost anything else in the world when I cry in public. And a big part of the reason is that I know that everyone now feels like I am weak, manipulative, or both.
Maybe I am weak. But I’m not manipulative.
I hear you. I once cried at work because my boss was chewing me out for, as you so aptly put it, a bullshit non-reason. And of course things like that upset me. What’s an upset person supposed to do? I couldn’t hold it in. But she acted all offended, like I was trying to manipulate her. Which I suppose she would do, as she was a horribly manipulative person herself, and projection was not beyond her. But…ugh. I was young, and easily upset, and when upset, I cry. If other people have a problem with that, it’s THEIR problem!
I have never gotten a speeding ticket. I am quite a cautious driver though.
I have gotten a parking fine. As I recall, I just paid it, and there was no crying.
I actually got a ticket for jaywalking once. I didn’t cry, but I really don’t think it would have helped me if I did.
grumpycatisagirl,
No, but a cop did use a friend of mine’s licence to find out her address so he could send her flowers and tell her she was hot. >.<
leatapp,
Oh, gross. And dare I say, creepy.
I remember at college there was one student who had gotten multiple tickets for jaywalking.
He was black.
Some of the white students made a game out of trying to get ticketed for jaywalking and they’d purposefully cross the street right in front of the cops and somehow none of them ever got a ticket for it.
And a “bitch bin”? Really? Well, good luck trying to keep any of my effects around as trophies, you weirdos…because lipsticks, hair accessories and stuff all COST, and the hell I’m leaving any of them around for some dude to show off as evidence of his manly, manly manhood.
I took that as advice for men to buy those products themselves, and then stock a bin to create the illusion that women had stayed over at some point in the past.
My experience is that when people stay over on a regular basis, they tend to keep their stuff in the places where it will be used. E.g. they leave the toothbrush near the bathroom sink, instead of pulling it out of a bin in the other room every time they want to use it and putting it back when they’re done. (In some cases that’s just common courtesy. If you’ve got a preferred brand of shampoo, then just leave the bottle next to the tub! Don’t track water all over the apartment when you inevitably realize that you forgot to bring it in from the other room!)
I think these dudes who keep “bitch bins”, if that’s even a thing, are using stuff left behind by women long gone. I can’t imagine anyone staying long with such assholes.
I skipped a part to land in a part about 35+ year old women…. the annoying creepy weird giggle when he says they hit the ground at 42, from the wall! I bet he’s a virgin?
… Somehow I doubt most men could take a new lippie, for instance, and make it look convincingly enough used to fool most women who use lippie, without actually using it themselves.
If you find out that your one-night-stand has a box full of women’s accessories, run a mile.
*a box full of women’s accessories as sexual trophies, perhaps I ought to say.
I’m sure there’s a box of women’s accessories somewhere in our bathroom closet, but the difference is, Beloved was using them at one point and I don’t bronze them and hang them on the wall of my den.
I don’t have a den. I have a chilly basement next to the washing machine, where I have to turn The Clone Wars way up to hear it over the latest load of onesies.
