This is what, the third time this has been submitted? We get it. The average TFer is pathetic.

 
JerseyTim [TotalFark] 2008-12-06 02:13:52 PM  
So submitter is a selfish idiot who doesn't want his friend to be happy without him?

 
alk44 [TotalFark] 2008-12-06 02:14:49 PM  
Haha that's awesomely poignant though.

Speaks to the duality of whores.

That was funny.
Oh, wait.
SUBBY is a worthless prick for submitting this god damned link!one

Third time this hour, maybe.

moral: be a jerk!

I assume submitter is the girl in this 'story', right?

 
t3knomanser 2008-12-06 04:10:32 PM  
So, subby is a passive aggressive whiner? Color me shocked.

Hasn't this strip been posted in several unrelated threads? Oh, and I think there was an entire TFD post based on it.....

 
GaryPDX [TotalFark] 2008-12-06 05:57:17 PM  
The only winning move is not to play. Would you like to play a nice game of chess?

The only way to save this thread is to post some worthwhile XKCDs. Unforunately, I'm feeling lazy.

You could say that about any comic posted on the Internet.

I hope the next green light is another webcomic.

laughing at xkcd only preserves the stereotype that xkcd is funny.

 
defiancecp 2008-12-06 09:19:44 PM  
My wife woke me up (very sweetly, mind you) the morning that one was published and told me she wanted me to look into her eyes and know that she was absolutely in love with me, and that past stupidity really doesn't have any impact on our current relationship, before I read the comics that morning (I always read xkcd on mwf mornings). Suffice to say there's some relevant history there :)

Nice, confident guys get laid all the time. Nice but meek guy don't.

Order of female preference --> Nice, confident (hero) --> ; Bad, confident (bad boy) --> ; Nice, meek (average farker) --> ; Bad, meek (TF troll).

BlorfMaster: So... the moral of the story is to be a jerk?

Yeah.

But alternately, just not be the guy. And how to not be the guy? Don't lie about what you want. Stop trying to make yourself into what '90s Saturday-afternoon TV shows told you a man should be.

Cue Can'tLetYouDoThatStarfox to come in here and claim XCKD is escapism because it involves relationships, and we all know nerds can't have those.

was it any different from your current douchebaggery?

holiday_inn_in_cambodia: was it any different from your current douchebaggery?

Oh, I see I hit a nerve. Here, let me make you feel better about yourself: Your insult cut me like a Light Sabre. See what I did there? I made a completely obvious pop-culture reference, which you can pat yourself on the back for understanding. That will make you clever and witty.

 
soze [TotalFark] 2008-12-06 09:28:03 PM  
Self-professed nice guys are usually just passive aggressive jerks.

I went and got me a good guy instead. He never claimed he was nice, but he's the kind of guy that always stops to help random people and is generally generous and kind and patient.

No, you can't have him. I found him, he's all miiiiiine.

/even though he's a red sox fan

So, being a savior of the environment, having blue skin and green hair is not something to aspire to be?

What exactly is wrong with love growing out of friendship? I mean, from practical experience I know it doesn't work, given my lifelong failure with women, but I don't see how it could work otherwise. The characteristics I would like in a woman aren't ones which can be discerned from a casual glance across the barroom floor. The women I've been attracted to are those I've known for several months and got to know on a significant level before realizing that I would want to peruse a relationship with them, but of course some jerk has already claimed them. I suppose that's why I'm a 27 year old virgin with no prospects.

Epsilon: Nice guys don't get laid.

Well certainly not if they passive aggressively try to never ever fark women as is illustrated in this strip. It's easy: don't fawn over women who aren't interested in you.

So, anyone around here have a life that's more like Max Cannon's Red Meat?
