I made a similar post a couple of years ago, but I think it’s time again after seeing a few nice-guy/incel posts here. So, guys who have made it to the other side, what would you say to your previous self? I’ll leave my own personal answer in a comment below.

      Ah yes, all nonstandard behavior is gay. What a very intelligent and non-nonsensical way to sort the world. /s

      “When people tell you who they are, believe them. The good and the bad.”

      Hmm. Good too? I usually take the bragging with a grain of salt.

      If you talk about how you’re a cheater, or signal affinity with a hate group, or just are rude to waiters I’m certainly not going to forget that, though.
