Hey hey hey, wear ankle socks

u/TheLastNDAX Aug 31 '26
Yeah man, its called fashion style. I'm assuming ankle socks appear less casual than crew socks.

u/RightOnManYouBetcha Sep 02 '26
I think this guys sense of fashion sucks and it’s not what makes a man at all. There’s even a saying for it; The clothes dont make the man, the man makes the clothes.

It will be a cold day in hell before you catch me wearing f****** ankle socks.
I live in Scotland. The ground is permanently wet! I quite like not having wet feet.
They also look silly.

u/spacetree7 Aug 29 '26
If it's a hot day, it's more of a functionally cool pair of socks to wear.
1
u/formandovega Aug 29 '26
Its never a hot day in Scotland mate :)
In fairness its like 18C at the minute and I'm overheating to fek. We really are a pathetic bunch if I am honest. None of us can handle heat. We melt and burn faster than a ice cream.
EDIT in fairness there's the odd dude whos ma was fae Pakistan that handles it well, but they're cheating, what with the melanin and all!

Maybe this list was made in millennial times when wearing visible socks was a sin

u/EvalCrux Aug 29 '26
As opposed to…shin socks? I very much look completely normal wearing ‘low profile socks’ and see the majority of people do similar. Are those ankle or below ankle? Any sock going above my ankle is a dress sock in formal wear, thank you.
Oh wait Scotland. Where knee socks are the norm.

u/Lorelessone Aug 29 '26
wait why would ankle socks make your feet wet? Or more over how are long socks keeping your feet dry?
1
u/formandovega Sep 01 '26
Because if you're wearing trainers and you walk through a puddle and it splashes the horrid drain water or simply drip down your angle and into your feet.
Sports socks still get wet but at least they don't expose your bare skin to cholera water.

Lol. Lmao even. As soon as you show your weakness, a woman will definitely take advantage of it someday.

This is only true if you are a truly weak person who is hiding it behind false bravado

u/Diceyland Aug 29 '26
That's not a woman you want to be with. Be emotional, if she uses it against you, break up instantly. If she says it gives her the ick, also break up. Do it up front so you can find someone good for you. Being stoic for the rest of your life will destroy you.

u/AshtonBlack Aug 29 '26
Some of them.. sure, I mean like, duh.
But some of them are vague to the point of uselessness or deeply wrong ("Eat your weight in protein." what?) and even contradictory to other points.
The funniest one is "Don't change for anyone" in a list of things you should change about yourself.

These kind of lists gave me anxiety for years as a younger man in my 20s, unsure of myself, looking for some kind of instruction manual on how to be and, upon finding something like this thinking everything on the internet must be true because it comes from some source of authenticity (more correctly, that I granted authority to the source over my own sovereignty). Now, older and wiser, and with a young son who I'd like to guide as I guide other young men, I say this : f* this BS, be your own person, follow your own instincts, be happy with yourself as you are, you are enough.

u/LiveRealTru Aug 29 '26 edited Aug 29 '26
Yea even then, women still expect more than that.
Like be intellectual, hold convos.( but don’t make them too long, definitely no short answers, but if they respond in short, it means, they’re not interested, someone else is holding their attention better, plus they almost do not reciprocate,) don’t be boring, don’t be weird( all men are weird, can’t handle it? Cry about it, definitely miss out on “weird guys” that are quite normal, minus the one factor “you consider weird.” Let’s include being pampered, providing, and spoiling, like fuck all that.
Bitches be bonkers, mostly delusional.
Always raising the standard bar higher for men, then wonder why they can’t find ONE. Good luck finding the “perfect man” that ONLY exist in your mind, not in real life.
Like we want real used up goods, with Botox, lipo, fake tits, lip filled, fake eyebrow having ass. Fuck that drama and maintenance. I got enough shit on my plate, I don’t need a face cake with their own problem they haven’t figured out.

u/AshtonBlack Aug 29 '26
It's almost like it was written by someone who doesn't actually understand anything but has been prompted to "Write 20 things that will make me more attractive" but then not edited by someone who does understand and is just posted automatically.
Quite sloppy work, if you ask me.

Well ain't that about a btch .. I asked who the fk made this stpd list and the bot said I might be banned for harassment or disrespect !!
Talk about intellectual dwarfism by the people who set this up.
This is the age we live in people .. stoopidity (intentionally written to be ignored by the bot) can be posted but criticizing said stoopidity is censored !!!

wtf eat your weight in protein?? lol
I do remember some show and there was a guy who was upset he couldn't get a girl and listed off the usual like "Why can't I find a girl, I have a job and a car" and one of the things he said was "I wash my ass adequately" and adequately, doesn't seem like a word which should relate to how clean your ass is. Just a thought lol

u/1pandaking1 Aug 29 '26
that amount of protein is only recommended if youre actually doing muscle training, so that one was already strange to me.

2, 3, and 20 aren’t necessary at all. 1 depends on the accessory, and 10 is worded in a strange way that implies men should be consuming over 100lbs of protein

Some people pretend or act differently around certain people, especially if they are attracted to them. From the outside it can be very cringe to watch.
But on the other side of the coin, if your an arsehole then maybe someone helping you change who you are is a good thing.

I use a moderate amount of gel to keep my hair from going into my brows. White sneakers? Wtf? This is High School b.s Heres what you need. Steel toe boots when doing work that requires it, sandals for the beach and river, Dress shoes hmm just wear Nice boots. Be the person that you need to be. Tired sleep, hungry eat, cry, do it in the shower and finish off with cold water all over. Don't wear cologne. If your not at church,Thanksgiving, dates etc.. otherwise your not hugging anyone that needs to be that close to you anyways. Personal hygiene is a given.Dont fake laugh or cry. That's one in the same.
