I have plenty. And I’m not lonely. But when I try to defend lonely fellas online, you say things like “get a hobby”.

You guys are missing my point. Im not talking about incels, I’m talking about people who just call all lonely guys incels. The way everyone is happily downvoting me when I say this are proving me right.

Nope, I removed that option last January.

I’m reminded of Bender:

“This isn’t even about you”

“That’s impossible!”

The thing I keep thinking about, and I feel like I’ve never been able to properly communicate, is that the machines our society runs on are built to run in a certain temperature range.

The 2021 texas winter fiasco was a perfect demonstration of what happens when we try to run a society’s machinery outside of it’s expected temperature range. Yes, the ERCOT goofballs were trying to save money by narrowing that expected operating range because “It never gets that cold” and “It never gets that hot”, but my badly articulated point still stands - a system was made to operate in a temperature range outside of it’s capability, and it started to fail. They were minutes away from losing very expensive and hard to replace equipment. What we don’t want is for one of the more competently-run power grids in the world to start to buckle due to temperatures, because the same thing that happened in texas could happen on a larger scale.

And that’s just talking about the power grid. Anything with a heat exchanger in it, including your car and air conditioner and all the refrigeration that is needed to keep everyone fed, is designed to run in a certain temperature range, and will stop working if you run it outside of that range for too long.

But wait, we can just design stuff to run in a wider temperature range! We certainly can. But we would have to redesign everything that moves heat around.

See? You are doing it. Be sure to dismiss this response as something coming from an incel, my other half thinks it’s funny.

Like drop the macho act and ask for help, buddy. It’s ok.

And watch the people who said they cared suddenly get real scarce.

I wish it wasn’t that way, and I’m happy it’s no longer that way for me. But there are people around you right now who know of they speak up, loved ones and friends will tell them “it’s no big deal” or “It’s all in your head” or my favorite, “man up”.

Of course it’s made by KLIM. Someone is probably over on ADVrider right now vehemently defending this vest and it’s whale foreskin leather.

Or sn accident in a tunnel, where there isn’t a connection.

I wasn’t ever explicitly threatened with a car, they were just distracted and didn’t care if they hit someone.

Yes, but they do tend to get lumped together and dismissed the same.

Nah, lets just call all lonely men “incels” and sweep the problem under the rug, surely that will never be a problem.

EDIT: Thanks for helping me prove the point, everyone.

“I’m going to business school!”

Before or after you drop a book on your face?

For me it’s usually “after”.

Something tells me stolen cars are shipped in bulk.

Customers in the store are bitchy and demanding.

Customers outside the store are bitchy, demanding, and controlling a two-ton machine.

Hard choice.

A pile of speed camera guts, 10 meters of 900-pair phone line, a grounding grid from a substation, and some coils from an orphanage’s air conditioner, probably.

Were they able to keep up with modern traffic and go out to the suburbs and back?
