  1. I jumped solo, but I was under the training and supervision of professionals. Instructors jumped alongside me and they would have rescued me if something went sideways. I went through 10hrs of training.
  2. No, you just don't understand how women work because you are inexperienced.
  3. Time to institute more beatings around here
  4. That's not gonna happen. A tiny minority is just acting out.
  5. Your mind is just making bullshit excuses to avoid approaching. Go do 1000 approaches. Why should any woman love you when you are being such a pussy? A man who cannot approach does not deserve a woman's love.
  6. I should put a disclaimer on this site that if I beat you guys, it's for your own good
  7. All women are attracted to the same stuff. Nothing is stopping you from falling in love with her after she sleeps with you. Pickup easily converts to genuine dating. You can set up many dates. You don't have to do one night stands, you can collects dozens of numbers and instagrams.
  8. If you keep asking us to prove things to you, you'll be kicked out of here.
  9. Don't waste your and our time with this nonsense. Go do the work, or go do something else.
  10. Plenty of BS in there. I don't have a high opinion of soft science academia. Although we are way over-generalizing here. There are good academics to be found within all fields. You just gotta be choosy.
  11. I'd bet the humanities are more full of shit overall than STEM. It's harder to bullshit your way through STEM. There is bullshit in STEM but it lives at a deeper metaphysical/epistemic level that is beyond the ken or need of most humans.
  12. That's precisely why doctors must adhere to strict ethical guidelines and regulations. And still they get sued a lot for malpractice.
  13. There is a role for consumption, but the key is quality or quantity. Consume high quality stuff and really dissect how it works. Then create your own from that. Also, a lot of the most popular works are overrated and not actually the highest quality. Many classics are especially overrated. I've found it much better to pursue and model more modern stuff. Pursue the stuff that genuinely excites you, not just classics for the sake of classics. The biggest problem with consuming all the standard classics and popular stuff is that then your mind will think just like everyone else. You want to feed your mind with unique source material so that you can get a more unique output. Watching the top 50 movies will make you a very generic sort of film director. You'd be better off watching 10 great films that few have watched. When I was young I used to be obsessed about this idea of being a Renaissance Man, well versed in all the classics. Then I discovered that it's much better to go my own way and be deeply myself. You won't go wrong following your highest passions and loves vs what society considers important.
  14. For me it is so obvious that I have a hard time putting myself in the shoes of a newbie. But I've been contemplating epistemology since I was 16 years old. If you do the work long enough eventually human affairs just become so predictable and moronic.
  15. Big 5 is also quite good. Surprised he didn't mention it. It's as good as MBTI. Ennegram can also be good. There are many useful ways to slice up personality. You can use all these models like camera filters or lenses.
  16. Funny enough I downloaded it to watch yesterday. Haven't seen it yet.
  17. What's really ironic is that Trump is the anti-Christ. Yet none of the Christians realize it. You'd think someone like JP should say it.
  18. "Who's in charge of this fucking place?!" Oh, right, you are, since you're God. You're right though... selfishness is ridiculous
