assholes get the girls. That's why books like "The Game" and shows like "The Pickup Artist" are empirically tested to work. Just watch the show/read the book/join a PUA community.

magical lady radar! She *knows* who the *real* nice guys are because she has intuition! not like every other girl who falls for the wrong guy instead of his kinder, gentler guy right next to him.

So how do you know when someone is being nice because they're kind or being nice to get laid? You don't.

his comment, and this article, is not about "people" it's about guys and the women who love/hate them. Yes both genders make poor choices in relationships but the elusive "nice guy" that women think they want is not what they actually want. Either that or "nice guy" to women actually means "douche bag" to everyone…

YES!

You forgot:

Seriously, guys. There's no reason to consider using anything but Feedly. It's free, imports your google reader data automatically, and has free mobile app versions. That's more than you could say about Google reader itself (no app for IOS).

why must this be an either/or debate? Can't xbox 1 do the revolutionary things it posits with downloads in addition to having disc DRM? XBLA already delivers games directly to your account with licenses that follow you wherever you take your Xbox live account, ready to be downloaded. Couple that with the ability to…

Miami sucks and LeBron is a tool. Spurs should finish them off in Game 7. Miami doesn't deserve a win.

i have an ipad 2 with some busted glass. the cracking extends over a significant portion of the screen and makes for a really bad tablet experience. some of the white plastic underneath the glass has broken too. I'm wondering if it makes sense to repair it myself, have a non-apple technician look at it, or just…

I'm sorry you had to experience that. That's the opposite of my therapy experience. You found out that your marriage was based on a lie, while I found out that my relationship was precisely as futile and screwed up as I thought it was. I think finding out the horrible truth about your relationship in front of a…

diet fads are dumb, but the paleo diet is actually similar to what the FDA food pyramid is all about except you cut out those pesky breads and cereals. You eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, get protein from meat and eggs, and you cut out the carbs/ preservatives/chemicals from processed food. That's pretty…

Paleo diet is not bullshit. Almost everybody at my gym is on this diet and it works. As you say, eating fresh fruits and veg and cutting out processed crap (i.e. carbs/MSG/preservatives/etc) is better for you. You'll get more fiber in your diet and probably lose weight since you'll feel fuller with fewer calories.

indeed it is a great trick, but does anyone who deigns to use terminal commands not know this already?

In my experience, the most important thing to expect from couple's therapy is that there are some (many) problems it won't fix.

It sounds like this article is arguing against social hierarchy. Social hierarchies, with "Alphas" and "Betas", exists in all sorts of animal social hierarchies and are not going away just because we get rid of alimony and pay women the same as men.

the atlantic article on alimony explains how the pain of alimony is felt by ex-husbands and 2nd-wives alike. Alimony is not strictly a gender issue, it's a heavy-handed and outdated law grounded in the pro-family values of an earlier time when women had no career prospects. It's as old fashioned and closed minded as…

you don't have to be an MRA to think the prevailing attitudes toward men on this site are one-sided/hypocritical/not to be taken seriously.

probably not. it's almost never going to get better when you live together. your pet peeves will be the same and your need for independence will only be greater when you're crammed into a closer space with another person. there will be more cause for complaints, and more times when you disagree on what you should…

Living in a tight space is difficult when there's two people. One of the best things you can do is try and spend as little time at home as possible when you need that alone time. Find a library, coffee shop, or bar nearby that you can claim as your "third space" and use that space when you want to get away.
