Whether or not it's pathetic is redundant, I think the meme is just a manifestation of perceived hopelessness with no conduit to express said feeling anywhere else than in something that's veiled as "cringy" humor. Sit down with any of these people and talk to them and you'll find some of them can be articulate about just how awful they feel.Whether or not a relationship is going to solve all their problems like they might hope it would is also irrelevant, because if the problem was solved they'd likely learn very quickly that it wasn't the case. I don't know if it's quite so fair to chastise those who feel hopeless on this note. Would we chastise a day dreamer who dreams of a better life outside his wageslave job and eventually starts to think that if the dream were a reality all of his problems would be solved?People tend to put a lot of stock into singular keys for fixing their lives when they lack hope.there's a fundamental difference between vocalizing one's desires to have a better life from a vocational standpoint, and being sad that nobody's presently sucking on your genitalsyou can be sad that nobody's sucking on your genitals all you want, but this internet culture of throwing pity parties for all the poor dudes out there who just can't get a break when it comes to women is just impossible for me to sympathize with, because none of these guys are actually taking any of the steps necessary to getting what they want—they're mostly just patting themselves on the back for being losers, and i kinda just refuse to take part in that

You're implying that all of them have sexual intent in mind. What about the ones that don't? What about the ones in environmental situations such as sparse populations? What about ones who can't seem to fill the intelligence gap? Or the ones who lost the genetic lookie loo lottery?
I'm not defending the behavior nor the pity parties of the thirsties

Funny thing about those people and their priorities. It's the other way around. They've adopted priorities in order to hide from the thing that's eating them. By keeping moving, working, doing whatever, they're less aware of that nag at the back of their head, but it's still there.

What is a drop of rain, compared to the storm? What is a thought, compared to a mind? Our unity is full of wonder, which your tiny individualism cannot even conceive. We yearn to join all with our biomass so that they may feel the joy of being a part of the whole. The Many protect us. We are, we are...
