What kind of narcissistic fuck refers to himself as "high value man"
It’s taking the piss out of Andrew Tate and the gullible guys that he’s convinced are superior to women.
From all the trending news articles, ten year old boys who got access to tik tok
it's definitely not just the ten year olds that think this shit.
Mentally, they're all still ten-year-olds.
Yeah, shittiest shit stains figured out they could blast on Tik Tok. And Tik Tok sees no problem inserting these videos between “why do we use cinnamon on everything” and “why is the sky blue”
iirc, doesn't china explicitly not allow such shit on their version of tiktok? so it's just letting america cut their own throat basically?
They're probably just milking the market.
Just trying to get em while they're young.
I still have both kidneys, so I'd say I'm pretty "high-value"
So, if a date says you're "potentially a great match", clarify "organ donor or personality match", okay?
Gestures wildly at the men, many in positions of power, around the world, who very obviously would do that.
Same vibes when guys call themselves kings, or girls call themselves queens.
I've seen it in screenshots people have taken of posts from various "man-o-sphere" influencers on places like Twitter. Obviously the problem with them saying it is that none of the guys referring to themselves as such are actually worth knowing, let alone dating.
A manosphere twat, that's who.
Just look at this thread. How many people in this thread are acting superior to her because she has an only fans or because of some other stupid reddit reason. The people are acting "high valued" and superior even if they dont say it. She's literally using this comment to tell readers that these peoples opinions have no influence on her life, and all its doing is making them more upset. To me, that's why this comic is funny
Yea, it's kind of a shit show. When I posted there were no other comments yet.
I’m surprised people are being offended by the comic. Just because it’s about a narcissistic asshole who never grew up after high school, doesn’t mean that represents everyone.
I took it as a “Don’t judge a book by its cover” kind of message. Also loved the humor of the woman’s sarcasm. Why do people have to make it about race or gender?
Leon Musk, for example.
Let me guess, someone who’s such an egregious self-important A-hole that they are unfuckable? But I’m just guessing.
Narcissus was always trying to dodge annoying suitors, so I don't think he'd want to call himself high value in that context.
The kind made of straw
