nothing happens here anymore, the only activity is the copypaste/comment/wikipedia/any thread that's just copying shit from somewhere else
and this thread full of people talking to themselves
Fully Automated Luxury Communism.
A restaurant on the lobby of a 5-star international hotel 15km away is not the kind of answer you'd expect to be given after asking "what's the cheapest restaurant near me" to a so-called smart assistant.
the trick is to stop living in the present
I wonder if I could find a cute girl in real life and enter into some sort of "friends with benefits" affair with her, but benefits as in literally just cuddling.
i like being treated like a girl in every way
> implying the heresy train has brakes
>>910
Why do you (and so many like you) assume that all women want a fit guy who isn't into anime?
>>914
Because it's true. You think an out of shape dude posting fantasies about "cute girls" on a niche text board is getting any action?
Humans are unable to distinguish individual properties of a smell.
There is no "blue", "sharp" or "sweet" in smell: encounter a new smell and the question will be "what does it smell like?" and not "how <smell adjective> is it?"; the answers given will invariably relate the scent to objects or experiences - "burnt toast", "old people", "fresh dog poop". Indeed, the words themselves probably conjure the respective smells almost immediately.
My thesis follows. This lack of is exactly why smells evoke memories the strongest of all senses.
Precisely because there are no abstract "blue" or "sharp" properties in smells that get lumped into a single category of "blue" or "sharp" is why we retain so much information from specific smells. We can't break down a smell into its component parts, so we must retain it in full.
Thus the random whiff walking past an alleyway takes you right back to that summer when you were 4 and your older cousin tried to feed you poop on toast at your grandparents' house.
It's almost paradoxical: our weakest sense, given time, becomes our strongest.
>>914
Hot people want to shag other hot people, is this notion truly that outrageous?
Anime doesn't really factor in that much though, provided you got the looks.
We're about to reach 1000 unhappy posts
Except this one, this one is happy.
When I look back on this year I won't wish I had smoked more pot.
Yeah, being attractive helps but social skills are much more important. It's also hard to generalize what women want. I once had a girlfriend who liked boobs so I showed her Senran Kagura and she loved it! Hot and nerdy girls do exist.
>>909, what you want is possible. I've met cute girls who say they want "cuddle buddies." Guys are horndogs so girls tend to put up a strong guard, so you need to develop rapport and prove you're trustworthy first. The fastest path to cuddletown is a group cuddle with a number of close friends. Alcohol helps with this. After group cuddling a few times, the cute girl will start to trust you and be willing to cuddle alone.
However, it's honestly probably better to just ask her to be your girlfriend. After all, a girl needs to be at least mildly attracted to you to be willing to cuddle, so you might as well go all the way. After all, if you become just cuddle buddies, eventually she will get a sexual partner who will probably ask her to stop cuddling, and then your heart will be broken.
in that goddamn I Spy illustration you call a closet, honey
Time management also. Nerd activities are known for taking lots of your precious free time in deep focus on nerd shit. You could be quite a pleasant person to know, but all that studying and media consumption is time you aren't prettying yourself up, networking for love/poon, etc.
This is not an indictment of being otaku as fuck: the stigma is real and it's stupid and shallow people are everywhere. Granted, so is the stereotypical maladapted geek who at best isn't fun to be around and at worst is a douche; it's a kind of shallowness, too. Just, if you aren't getting something you want, you either want more than you're gonna get, or you need to adjust priorities in order to get it. Life is full of compromises, and compromises suck by definition. Some compromises are fair, and some of them aren't fair.
Gentlemongs, try not to short-circuit your satisfaction with a life-ruining obsession. But at the same time, if you find an activity so meaningful that it makes all the suffering of life worth enduring, you have a thing a lot of people don't. Don't apologize for it (unless it is evil, in which case maybe you should mend your ways--but I assume that's an unusual corner case). Hide your power level if need be, but also avoid (general) situations where you must compensate for it by being something that ain't genuine. It's simply accepting life for what you can squeeze out of it, and that is a part of "having your act together", which is an attractive trait to most anyone worth wooing. Like the book Murphy's Law once sardonically cracked about loans, to get an S.O. you ought to first prove you don't need one.
Listen, you talk trash about moé in the Internet, you'll have to deal with me.
tryna look up some movie i saw for only a moment at my parents' friend's house that said parents' friend was watching while channel surfing because it scared me and i want a little closure but google is shooting duds here
>>918
Speak for yourself - I've never experienced a smell bringing up a memory. Sight or sound are far better suited for that purpose, since they can convey more, specific information (“Hey remember that time when…”)
Is it Friday yet?
Danganronpaul
>>928
Maybe it's you? I can't count the times someone's suddenly exclaimed, "Whoa, I just caught a smell that strongly reminded me of..."
>>932
I've never heard someone say anything close to that. I've heard plenty of people say they've been reminded by sights or sounds, however.
I don't really care if either of us are unusual, or live in an unusual area, but the idea of smell being a powerful sense is certainly not universal.
A weird smell was a major plot arc for the entirety of Lucky Star. Smell ya later, dokyuns!
Well, you know what they say
It really stinks, huh?
I imagine some of these copypastas come about because some Anon decides to make a shitty joke, sees the initial glint of "oh god why", and realizes it is not time for half measures.
>>933
Olfactory memory is definitely a thing. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olfactory_memory
And to add anecdotal evidence pool, I find memories triggered by smell much more powerful because they make me deeply relive the experience of that memory. It's similar to the eery feeling of like deja vu.
>>938
Hey cool, supporting evidence! Neat.
Anyway it's interesting that there's always someone one the internet around to argue "I have found an exception to your predicates, thus I submit your conclusion is entirely false"
test
I just don't think I'm cut out for the aristocracy.
Sometimes when I smell something I've smelled before I'll recognize it as something I've smelled before, but I rarely remember exactly where I first smelled it.
>>939
You're misrepresenting me by saying “entirely false”. My objections are with your statement being universally applied - nothing more.
>>943
I see that now, but I never explicitly it was universal. I also made other points, some standing alone from those you object to, and yet you didn't touch upon those at all. Thus my reaction to what I interpreted as a haughty dismissal based on an incorrect assumption, similar to how a grammar nazi would pick out a mistake to avoid having to address the brunt of an argument. It hurt my feelings, yo.
Anyway, how boring is meta-argument? Let's do something more interesting for the death throes of this THREAD.
>>943
“Our subject, then, and our data being of this nature, we must be content if we can indicate the truth roughly and in outline, and if, in dealing with matters that are not amenable to immutable laws, and reasoning from premises that are but probable, we can arrive at probable conclusions.
The reader, on his part, should take each of my statements in the same spirit; for it is the mark of an educated man to require, in each kind of inquiry, just so much exactness as the subject admits of: it is equally absurd to accept probable reasoning from a mathematician, and to demand scientific proof from an orator.” - Aristotle, <i>Nicomachean Ethics</i>, <i>tr.</i> Peters
Bothayunz sound absurd to me, within a short number of exchanges muddying up both what is objective and what is subjective. That is, initial statement poses as objective fact a generalization predicated on subjective conjecture, initial counterstatement uses subjective experience to argue against an objective universality. It continues with neither participant acknowledging the basis of good faith argument, <i>viz.</i> “hang on, I know what you meant, but consider this.” It comes across as disingenuous all around, very frustrating to follow, can’t fap to this. True memory comes from <b><i><u>OPPOSITE BRAIN HOLLOW TIME CUBE SIMULTANEOUS 4-DAY CREATION</u></i></b>
Crab Yars fucking sucks
I think I might be literally addicted to cute anime girls.
I have a mild tendency to make up sentences that I haven't said before. I wonder if that comes from /r9k/.

Cute girl phoning the professional cuddling service you've been using regularly to inform them that you won't be requiring their services any longer.
Fill me up inside!
Can't fill up!
Why did I have to memorize so much more in elementary school than I do in college?
I LOVE MY WIFE JOEL
ywn be as cute as link in a gerudo outfit
Alex Jones: There's some seedy shit going on in the world and I'm gonna tell you about it!
Me: Yeah! Tell us, Alex!
Alex: The global financial elite uses their wealth and influence to create political policies that favor them and hurt you, the common man! They seek to enrich themselves at your expense!
Me: Yeah! Preach on, what do we do about it?
AJ: First you have to buy one of my filters. Also, the global financial elite are actually interdimensional satan-worshipping pedophile vampires who want to strap your children into an intergalactic rape machine and suck out their psychic energy.
Me: ...
Why are they fucking excited about a release of a new version of a shit IDE. It's still going to be shit, and there's a chance it might be even worse.
acting like an asshole ironically is actually just being an asshole

Just think, some Nanashi-san coming up with a semi-creative combination of characters, loosing them into the wild to be used in (technically) secret communications by weebish nerds that write some of the code behind secret squirrel operations. Otakon is more uncomfortably real than most people realize; google-stalk Snowden's ancient posting history.
Cute girl performing CPR on you, but she's enjoying the mouth-to-mouth part a little too much and neglecting the chest compressions, so you end up dying.

The "future" doesn't exist. Time moves forward, but the future is a lie.
I regret wasting so much time waiting for the future now that I know this.

This is good to know.

Knowing that Hirohiko Araki was featured at a Louvre exposition makes me more confident in the idea that my taste is actually really good, since JoJo is the only manga that I've grown to like the past 4 years.
Is shanachan down? Too much see-pee?
I want to sample the suction noises coming from this carpet cleaning machine and make some industrial music with it.

I wasn't convinced by your argument about why I was wrong, but since you then called me a moron and a retard and a manchild and a retardchildmoronbaby, I've decided that I totally agree with you.
>>979 I used to have one with a variable speed control, so you could alter the pitch of the hum - I'd do that with one hand and play a drum machine with the other, make some tidy drum n bass!
Cute girl sitting in your lap and mischievously shifting her little bottom around to try and give you an awkward erection.
Aristocrats, business men are conspicuous spenders for social status. (At least one group called) hipsters and arguably the Amish are conspicuous savers, living on as little as possible. Of course it's possible that thrift becomes hip; how much TV does Jessica Alba watch?
good recipe but saffron yeah nah what the fuck do i look like an 18th century dutch spice merchant that stuff is more expensive by weight than cocaine
Cute girl saying “dakara... dakara...” over and over again, never completing her sentence.
to be fair, if what i've heard about cocaine is true, i'd (personally) actually get a better high outta the saffron. straight up raging boner for paella.
Somehow the porn is a lot better when you know the girl's family doesn't approve and is ashamed of her for it.
I love you, DQN!
Cute girl distracting you from your zazen meditation by constantly cuddling you from behind and whispering cute things in your ears.
you will never sound as happy as the puzzle bobble 2 OST
So long as I have caffeine, I am unstoppable.
Cute girl bringing this thread to a peaceful end.
