woo.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
A apparently winked at the wrong guy on Match.
Do you think you're an example of a 36 year old whos EXEMPT from someone who condescends to women above 31? Meh? Do I resemble people whom you've dated? Do you think you resemble people I have? Sorry, the internet doesn't suggest that THIS high IQ'd guy is suddenly going to forgo preferring the BEST I have the choice of.
I responded, "That was unnecessary. I've dated ridiculously attractive men, and very plain men. As far as smart goes, I've had lunch with nobel prize winner Steve Chu. I can assure you, he's much brighter than you are, but his kindness is what makes him a much better man."
Sorry for the name drop. Sometimes, it seems okay to do so.

Because books.
Woo.
I don't think I'm that kind of girl after all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He's a nice guy, ready to admit to condescending to women above 31.

Scola posting drunk is very entertaining. Especially when he is, as it seems, surrounded by woo girls.

He responded,
It WAS unnecessary; you're correct. I know you know I won't be interested.. so there was no need for me to state the obvious. And I call BULLSHIT. You've NEVER dated ridiculously gorgeous men. Pfff. lol. Why would they do that?
He used a lol, so I win.

Jackass. Plain and simple. Don't waste a thought.

Ironically, he's as infuriated by someone he deems unattractive winking at him as I am at someone who's an imbecile.
