    I agree with Helobious on this, many Gen Z folks are on social media but mostly listening. They’ll have an Insta page with maybe three photos and a few stories that they use to follow everyone, then have a small private page with a nickname where they post uncurated stuff for close friends. 

    Also known as the Finsta...

    One of my best childhood friends fits this thread perfectly and I've watched his journey into being a 34 year old virgin. 

     

    1.) He was overweight as a kid so he get zero attention from girls and he had zero confidence

    2.) Continued being overweight in high school and focused on playing football (OL of course) so much that he never went to prom or on a date

    3.) Got hung up on a girl in college that is way out of hi league and never moved on until graduation

    4.) Got hit on by an ugly slut in college and didn't pursue her for even a night because he felt some sort of chivalry towards said out of league girl who barely knew his name.

    5.) Became an adult and got hung up on another girl out of his league who did text him back but anyone who wasn't an incel could tell she wasn't interested by the way she responded.

    6.) Continue gaining weight until he is 5'9" 300lbs

     

    My wife and I set him up with a friend and we doubled with them for his first ever date (he was 28) and it went well enough that the girl wanted a second, but the girl we set him up with had a similar body type to him and he rejected that instantly and never called her back. Now he's a grown ass man at 34 and his prospects are incredibly dim because he's been on one date in his life, and he has no idea how to treat an actual woman if he were to accidently go on a date again. The poor bastard has his bedroom in his 1br apartment completely decorated in a 7th grade male all sports all the time aesthetic. He refuses to use dating apps because of his confidence being 0 and says he would never date a woman with a kid.

     

    This dude has a college degree, has been a teacher for over a decade so he makes alright money (relatively to some other incels), and he's a really nice guy so some woman would assuredly be ok with him being a bit immature in tastes as a grown man. He just doesn't give himself a chance and I'm sure there are plenty of other incels that fit into his category that just don't really know what to do or where they fit in society.

    I was just wondering that exact same thing.

    Some lawyer is billing as he/she pours through this

    Seems like though if this story was true and a quick scan of this, there is some due process in the form of a hearing that SHOULD have taken place....which seems fast.  

    Note I said "should"

    The thing that keeps coming back to me about Cowboys drafts is that they probably spend more draft capital and salary on OL than any other NFL team over the last couple of decades, yet they seem to be rebuilding their OL every other year. They seem to do poorly at sifting out the later round OL prospects, even second and third round guys are often quick flame-outs, meh... or just total busts.

    That’s because O line is the absolute toughest position on the field to evaluate and you combine that fact with the numbnuts in charge and well there it is.

  5. There are really two possibilities on Jay which is what Troph is dead on about. While both are less than ideal we don’t truly know the motivations:
     

    1. He’s totally aligned with Abbot et al  Not much more to say about that option  

    2. He knows there are bigger battles to be waged and as distasteful as this was he had to burn some decency here to live to fight those bigger battles lest he be replaced by somebody who completely capitulates. 
     

    I’d prefer the Luthen Rael option 2 but who knows.

  6. The Chiefs haven't exactly struggled without Tyreek taking the top off the defense but fuck me.

     

    On the other hand, the Chiefs receivers can't catch so maybe a fit there as well.....ducks 🤣

    It was a lot weirder when the crowd was just the 500 or so loser virgins who hung out in that ballroom in NYC all day long.

    Fair point

    Are their creepier fans than NFL Deaft fans?

    No...."I know what let's go watch them call names and shake hands". It's not unimpressive what a must see spectacle the NFL has made of this thing, but yea they weird.

    Cousins got a big contract. So stupid at 8 to take a QB with so much talent on the board.

    And one that is injury prone at that.
