the problem with working out is that you will never know if a girl likes you for you, or for your body
so i'd find that plan viscerally unappealing no matter what
You should be able to spot a girl like that from a mile away.
i should have a million dollars

do you consider working out to be worthless if someone was trying to improve their health
not worthless, but i would use the word futile instead in general, if it's not one thing, it's another there are afflictions associated with lack of fitness, and there are afflictions associated with being fit you're doomed either way, so it's simply a matter of picking your poison, and whatever poison you pick is none of my business

thats all well and good, but none of those provide the objective chemical equivalent to working out, even if you really enjoy them. speaking as someone who spent a lot of time working out a couple years ago, and gained absolutely nothing from it, i do not want an objective chemical equivalent i want the activity itself to be more worthwhile you're comparing the faux-happiness achieved from performing an otherwise worthless activity to the genuine happiness achieved from performing activities that i personally consider more valuable if jono is the type of person who likes feeling confident for no logical reason, i have nothing more to say to him edit: have you ever just submitted an incomplete post

the best advice i can give is to not feel as though you have to take anyone's advice
if someone here's telling you to do shit a certain way, but you don't feel in your heart that it's the right thing to do, then absolutely don't do it, even if it's been shown to be successful 99% of the time
that's called being fake, and being fake might get you in a relationship, but it's absolutely not going to make you happy, which is ultimately what i think you want in the end
the thing that a lot of people forget to realize is that life isn't a game, and it's not wise to live it like it is one
there's no prima strategy guide for how to get women, and MOST lasting relationships are based on sheer dumb luck and happenstance alone, two people being in the right place and the right time, saying and doing all the right things to each other
so i say just do whatever the hell you want
if that's not good enough for some girl, then she can go fuck herself

the "use" in working out is the improved confidence levels which in turn help you function in society. what other activities would you recommend that are equally as beneficial yet you consider to be worthwhile?
that's gonna vary from person to person, but for me, it's writing and video games any hobby that you enjoy doing, really i can't really recommend anything, but working out is among the last things i'd recommend, because i do consider it a colossal waste of time for most people that winds up having inadvertently detrimental effects that most people don't think about when pursuing relationships because apart from the whole idea that shallow cunts are undesirable, it's also undesirable to assume that a girl would be into you just because you're physically attractive, that's kind of insulting to her, too it's all fucked up, i don't know why intelligent people bother

i mean any relationship that doesnt last is a giant waste of time in that light. its kind of... unavoidable? people are shitty. i wouldnt blame anyone from not "trying" because of that.
yeah, and that's precisely why i don't the point of a relationship is to have it last if you knew a relationship wouldn't last going into it, would you bother

it's generally pretty easy to tell what a girl is into you for so i don't think it's that big of a deal
someone who likes you for you looks, do you really expect that to last
that's the problem relationships that begin based off of physical attraction alone are relationships that should never have begun at all not only is that just a waste of everybody's time, it's incredibly fucking hurtful when it suddenly dawns on you you're just an object to them, oh cool awesome that makes me feel great

idk about anyone else, but for me, the gym is less about looking good, and more about feeling good. if you feel good about yourself, it's easier to be confident, and the rest of your life improves from that. i think there's something to be said about liking how you look, but working out even as an "unfit" person empirically makes you feel better because of the workout high. it's just good for you even if you dont have fitness goals of any kind.
unless you're willing to take the argument further... "does she like me for me, or my confidence?" where i think it'd be silly to make the distinction.
i kind of get that? but i'd still recommend avoiding any endorphins attained from activities that are otherwise useless or unproductive in other words, there's better ways to do it that are less time-consuming and actually give you something of value at the end unless your job involves lifting heavy shit frequently, being stronger isn't going to do much for you if you're not attracted to dumb shallow bitches

Does it matter really? I doubt the general populous cares enough to disassociate the two and over time the feelings will blend into a general view of the person anyway. If you require someone to like you for your mind I think you're overthinking how attraction works.
uh, yeah, it kinda matters a whole fuck of a lot, actually i think you're underthinking how attraction should work >be a good yet unfit and therefore unattractive person >work out >suddenly attractive >be the exact same person you were before, but now girls suddenly care about you you shouldn't want ANYTHING to do with any girl who is that much of a shallow cunt

I should also remind you, and anyone reading, that even if you're not too confident with your looks, as long as you clean up well, you're mostly fine. A lot of people look ugly due to their style (hair, clothes, etc), and less because of their actual features. Not saying they don't exist (because they most certainly do), but yeah.
i do agree with this a lot some people are just fucked, but the vast majority of people would look nice if they tried (or cared) but it's also okay to not care, if you're willing to have an uphill battle when it comes to finding women (and it WILL be an uphill battle)

Update on the extra battles thing: the first one left a horrible first impression, but the new ones haven't been so bad at all. The latest one (which ended recently) gave you three 500 FM attempts to defeat a golden Shadaloo soldier for a 2500 FM award, which could be attained multiple times for a maximum profit of 6000 FM. That's actually pretty solid, and I hope the rest of the Extra Battles follow this model. Future extra battles are slated to contain some Monster Hunter-themed outfits for Ken, Ibuki, and Mika.    My favorite costumes tend to be the ones that render your character unrecognizable, so these are pretty cool.

so i just got done watching trump's sotu address, which nobody has made a thread about for some reason
and it merely reinforced my genuine and most heartfelt belief that everyone who voted for trump should be tortured in the worst and most horrific ways imaginable for the rest of their lives
that's probably my most radical belief now, even more than the anti-natalism thing
i hate all of you

I got a shiny Smoochum from the Odd Egg, luckily for me the Gen 2 department store stocks Ice Punch as a TM
woah, awesome you should know that the odd egg has an increased chance of having a shiny, though (not sure by how much)

A straw is effectively just a torus (Donut shape) extended along the height of the torus. You'd say a donut has one hole, therefore a straw (Which is topologically pretty much the same) has one hole as well.
i too saw that reddit thread

"Why don't you just watch things that you expect to enjoy" - question one of my weeb friends is always asking me
anime is the only medium where you can expect to hate everything you watch, if you just watch any old thing
whereas i can play pretty much any video game, no matter what it is, and find something to enjoy about it—and even then, you don't have to look very hard to find good stuff
the same applies to film, literature, and especially music (while there are some genres i strongly dislike, i can point to exceptions pretty much everywhere)
but it seems with anime, where everything is garbage, you're pretty much supposed to go into it having a perfect understanding of what you like, rather than being open about what you could end up liking, because otherwise, it's just too hard to find anything worth watching
and this is an art form that i'm supposed to take seriously

Here's (almost) everything I still need to watch from 1995, for reference:
Shows:
Sailor Moon SuperS - Apparently, this is just season 4 of Sailor Moon. Why is it listed as a separate show on MAL? I'll get to Sailor Moon eventually, but I probably won't consider it a 1995 show.
Tenchi Universe - I need to watch the OVA, Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki, first.
Magic Knight Rayearth II - Obviously, I need to watch the first Magic Knight Rayearth.
The World's Most Famous Tales - Shitty anime adaptations of fairytales Disney already did perfectly. Might not bother.
H2 - Looks kinda interesting. It's about baseball, and I didn't know they played baseball in Japan.
El Hazard: The Wanderers - Already tried and didn't like The Magnificent World, so I'm not sure about this.
Wild Knights Gulkeeva
Jura Tripper
Bonobono
Bit the Cupid
Kuma no Puutarou
Yanbo Ninbo Tonbo
Nurse Angel Ririka SOS
Sorcerer Hunters
Saint Tail
Neighborhood Story
Mojacko
Touma Kishinden Oni
Some of this stuff is so obscure, it doesn't even have a Wikipedia article.
As for movies, we have:
Elementalors
Catnapped!
Tobe! Pegasus Kokoro no Goal ni Shoot
Tokai no Butchy
Whisper of the Heart***
Red Hawk: Weapon of Death
Kazu & Yasu Hero Tanjou
Memories***
Gotou ni Naritai.
Heong-geuli Beseuteu 5
*** = i'm looking forward to these
I'm only counting original movies that don't seem to be part of a larger franchise, so things like Legend of Crystania and any DBZ movie are excluded. Movies adapted from manga alone are fine, but in general, films that are based on shows just tend to feel like glorified episodes of that show, which is not at all what I'm looking for when it comes to film.
I won't bother posting the mountain of OVAs and specials I still need to sift through.
