With an attitude like this, you realize you're part of the male loneliness problem, right?
How many times do people show up to your clubs and organizations one time and then never show up again?
Think on it
A big part of the "male loneliness epidemic" is that a lot of men are huge assholes for no reason
- strken 1y agoBeing a dick to people on the internet when you think they'll benefit from tough love (rightly or wrongly) does not translate into being a dick to new people who show up to their first club meeting looking excited and nervous. I say this not to defend the self-confessed dick, but to encourage everyone else to show up to stuff. People are nicer when they're hanging out and doing something they love.

That will always make you just come across like an asshole
