Minty_Fresh - Miserable Cunt

In a thread about where you live Minty poated:


No pix because none wants to see a dry desert full of chain restaurants, Trump voters, city cowboys and a giant hole in the ground.

In "Poat a Random Fact About You" Minty disclosed:


Single parent to a special needs child.

In "depression? pain? worthlessness? when it feels like society wants you to go kill yourself" he whines:


I feel this way a lot. But I have a mantra, a credo I heard in a Killing Joke song.



Recite it to yourself EVERY DAY.



SURVIVAL IS MY VICTORY.

In "How did you meet your significant other?":


Bah, I thought this would be about finding a S/O.



Dating sucks, for those that haven’t been single lately. Ugh, terrible.



Carry on!

In  "New Year Resolutions/Reflections 2018"

Pay off the car by July (debt free!)



Take my kiddo to Disneyland and Cali Adventures for Halloween



I gave up on trying to lose weight



I gave up on dating

In "Easter Eggs in Shops already!"


This is America. There’s no right or wrong only profit and loss.

In "Recent re-investigations into World's greatest mysteries" he cheerfully states:


The key thing about these mysteries is that you will not learn ANYTHING powerful people don’t want you to learn.

In "How much did a divorce change you?":


Divorced just over 10 years now. She decided at some point that banging fake city cowboys and being free of husband and child was the way to go.



So I have sole custody of our child who has developmental disabilities.



I’ve found that I’ve become a selfish S. O . B. There’s no way I’ll ever get married again. My life is busy although mostly solitary with working a full time job, a part time job to pay for my kiddo’s therapies and school. She’s the focus of my life and my heart. Any spare moments mean I get to spin a disc now and again. That’s my release as I almost never drink and don’t smoke/420/ whatever.



I’m not a good looking dude so dating is a lost cause and my friends have all moved away/moved on. I’m kind of a man without a country which is really foreign territory for me.



I know now that I have very little interest in women and if I did I expect her to be really into music as I am and / or collect records. There’s aren’t probabsly any around here in my age range so I don’t bother.



I used to think (romantic) love was the most beautiful thing a person could feel, now I know it’s garbage made up by greeting card companies to keep people from jumping off bridges.



I feel like since my divorce I see the world for what it is, not how it wants to be seen.

In "Thread Do you believe in "Fate"?":

No such thing as fate. We make our own fate.



My ex wife believed in fate, everything she does just keeps her on the path to the self destruction she feels she’s destined for. It’d be funny if wasn’t so sad and pathetic.

In "Marriage and audiophilia"

Was married once and it was awful. For years I said never again but then I met someone who made me rethink it.
 


She left and I haven’t bothered to try any dating since (3+ years now). Whatever it is women want, it’s proven I’m not it.



At any rate, my hi-fi is in the living room, if there’s a woman in my life she will be the type of person who knows it’s importnace and will share my love of records and music in general. If I never meet this woman then I’ll have a nice dog and a raging record collection and be content with that.



A bit later he happily opines:


I’ve never been more right in my life. I don’t waste the energy or effort on finding a woman. It’s not that I want to be alone, but rather I accept it.



I’m raising my daughter to be a citizen of the world and a compassionate person. This is my life’s mission. In 3-4 years I’ll be an empty nester and cannot foresee any type of romance.



Overweight chubby geeks aren’t what women want. At least not here in Tr*mp country USA. This I have proven.



And finally he poats:


Not around here. I assure you. If you’re in your 40’s



you must:

Own a house

Truck

Boat and/or jet skis

Six figure salary

Fake alpha dude bro, Bro

Vaping optional



You must not:

Live in an apartment

Geek

Middle aged

Five figure salary

Single parent to special needs child

Go to comicon

Geek out on coffee beans and apparatus

Geek out on music

Be a loser in the genetic lottery (looks trump all)



Listen, I did an experiment a few years ago. I write my profile on a dating site complete with the best pics of me I could find. I got maybe 5 profile views the first month, 3 the second and nothing after that.



So



I created a new account and posted the EXACT SAME PROFILE. Word for word. But I changed the profile pic to one I googled of an average looking 44 year old man.



80 views the first month, 40-50 each month after.



Know what that means? It means my baggage is acceptable if I’m as good looking as the guy in that picture. Since I’m not anywhere near that good looking my profile isn’t read. By anyone.



It’s proof. My last GF, she was amazing. We were so on the same level on everything. It was like a dream come true. But ultimately she was afraid of the age difference between us. So she left. And that’s that. Haven’t been on a date in more than 3 years and since online dating is a profile pic driven venture, why put myself though it. I’ve lost before I started.



As for meeting someone in the meatspace, my days are long between day job, daugjter’s School, daugjter’s therapies and my night job. I operate in a bubble. A closed loop.

Never back down. Set your stuff gently on the ground behind you and start walking toward him with intent. $50 says he walks the other way.

Some people have no purpose in life. They don’t count, don’t matter and have nothing to do or live for. So they do stuff like this, or cross in a cross walk right in front of traffic. It’s their way of lashing out.

When someone calls that bluff, their story changes fast.

If dude has a club/bat take note of whether he is a lefty or righty. As the distance between you shrinks have the mindset that you need him to swing and miss, once he misses you need to close on him fast and right to the throat. AS HARD AS YOU CAN.

Now everyone will start yelling about advocating violence but I’ll tell you right now. This week that jabronie is yelling at people and puffing up to intimidate, next month he will be clubbing old ladies for their money.

I GUARANTEE you that steeping at him will diffuse the situation and a shot to the throat will take any and all fight from him now and for the near future.

I laugh off these street urchins unless my daughter is with me. Then if you come at me you better f-int mean it because I don’t back down. Ever.

You’d bet your life he wouldn’t shank you for no good reason? Lay there and yell for help? Not I.

Toughness is a mindset. He’s using it on you not expecting it back. When he gets it back, I’m willing to bet 75% of the time he wil not engage.

Poat 3
You’re assuming he isn’t going to kill you for no reason. I wouldn’t take that bet. But that’s me.

Poat 4
You seem like a good person and I, personally, wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to you or your family.



But if living in the bad part of the city has taught me anything it’s that petty crime is petty. And what I mean by that is the instigator operates under the premise that he will scare and intimidate you and so things will go smoothly. What I learned (the hard way) is that when dude’s plan fails ie you turn around, square him up and then become the instigator his whole plan falls apart. And his day just got far more complicated.



It’s a deterrent that works.

She was the light of my life for a few years. I wish timing was different.
