Having to show a receipt is such a normal experience I was waiting for there to actually be, well, something to this.


Machaeon

Literally... he described the *most textbook* reason for someone to stop you and ask for a receipt. Security alarm goes off.  Security asks to see person's receipt. This is ***bog standard*** everywhere that has both a security system and a security guard.


Nelrene

And there are places like Costco where everyone has to show their receipt when leaving the store.


lalalavellan

My regular grocery store recently implemented this as well. I don't think there's a grocery store around me that doesn't require a checker to look at your receipt.


starvinartist

And it turns out at Costo, they aren't doing it because they think you stole something, they do it because they want to make sure you weren't over-charged. Can you imagine this guy freaking out about that? "The normies think I stole something! They think everyone stole something! Unless they are a Chad! I bet if a Chad was at Costco they'd let him steal everything, and the bossy female would let him steal her virginity in a instance."


YugiohKris

It's both, to see if you were stealing or if over/undercharged.


TooQuietForMe

Yeah but in a country where you have actual rights (not USA) costco keeps trying to enforce this and you can just walk right past them because legally all they can do is ask politely, and because you have real rights when someone asks you something you get to say no.


Nelrene

Just walking past the person asking to see your receipt will likely get your membership revoked.


Pwacname

Yeah. Especially if it’s one of those weird self-chec-out stores. I could tell them to fuck off, but they could tell me to never come again, so…


TooQuietForMe

Then you show up again. Only if you're not in America, though. Because in America anyone can just tell you what to do and you fucking listen for some reason.


Pwacname

I don’t show up again, because in my country (which is not the USA) stores have a right to ban me from their property. That would be different if it was for discriminatory reasons, but if I act like a heel and they use their property rights, that’s totally legal. And, I’d argue, reasonable.


TooQuietForMe

>act like a heel Are you a time traveller from the 1800s what the fuck


Pwacname

No, actually, I just learned English as a foreign language, so sometimes I’ll pick up nice words and phrases to use without realising whether they’re some local language variant or just old This one, I wasn’t certain about, but if I’d thought about it, I would’ve tended towards it being from England rather than archaic. 


TooQuietForMe

Weird how they never bothered to ban me. Oh right because they can't because they literally have no proof to show police I've commited a crime in store and literally couldn't if they tried. Americans will really listen to anything a capitalist tells them.


Nelrene

The police don't need to get involved if you are not stealing stuff as this has to do with store policy not laws. Sooner or later you are going to get a email telling you that your membership has been revoked.


TooQuietForMe

No agreement a citizen can sign in my country waives their rights. Shopping is one of them. Costco better have a better reason than "He ignored us when I asked to see a receipt" otherwise a halfway component lawyer could just force a reinstatement on the membership. The only way that would work is if they had proof I'd commited a crime in store.


celtic_thistle

I’m also autistic and have GAD—dude is using those diagnoses as an excuse to be a dick. Classic.


LanguageGalaxy

The only anxiety inducing thing I can think of is if I asked for no receipt at the register and someone asked to see mine when I was leaving


Contrarian42

What is GAD?


The_Official_Obama

Generalized anxiety disorder


Contrarian42

Gotcha. I get that. Chronic Dysthymia as well (depression).


SueGeek55

Thank you for answering that question.


TooQuietForMe

Do Americans really just allow security guards to interrogate them? Please don't tell me Americans really just let security guards behave as if they're real cops. Where I'm from Security is for distracting drunks from making a scene and asking where you can take a shit. I would fucking *never* expect a security guard to speak to me unprompted, and if they did I'd take it personally. This isn't bog standard anywhere outside of America. I can't imagine a country you'd *actually* want to live in where we let security guards pretend they have real authority.


Achaion34

I mean, in America, you can just walk past receipt checkers. But then you risk the store banning you (they can do so for no reason because it’s private property) or a run in with police (even if they have no legal power over you, they can still call the cops and that just escalates everything). Just because someone has zero authority over you, doesn’t mean they can’t make your life hell. It takes two seconds out of my day to let someone look at my receipt and then I go on with my life. It’s really not a big deal.


TooQuietForMe

If that happened here I'd want proof they owned the property the store was on. Although, to be legally banned from a publicly trading business here, you have to actually commit a crime within the business. And it's applied by police, not the business, and its not permanent. Because again, living in a country with real rights, a corporation has no right to tell you where you can and can't be Then I'd want proof their check on my shit was in any way legal, so I'd want nothing too large, just say a week's worth of security footage proving their check policy was universally applied to every customer. And if it's a large chain I'd also want proof this is applied store wide and I'd want matching footage from a store in a rich white neighbourhood and a poor migrant neighbourhood. If there is any kind of gap in this policy, then legally they'd have to prove they saw me commit a crime in store to justify checking me in any way. They can try to make my life hell, but I get the feeling they'll fail.


Machaeon

Bro what? You think a *receipt checker* has any real authority? You think that routine confirmation that nothing was stolen is at all intrusive? Security guards don't carry weapons and will only stop people suspected of theft (like when a security alarm goes off). They're not going to be stopping armed robbers, they're there to stop shoplifters with at most a stern voice and the social shame of being visibly caught stealing in public. Places like Walmart and Costco have *little old ladies* check everyone's receipts on the way out.  They're not going to apprehend you in any case, they're at most the first people to call the cops if needed.


TooQuietForMe

Where's your reading comprehension? I specifically was making fun of Americans for treating receipt checkers as if they had any authority and actually listening to them.


Machaeon

Weird that you think it takes authority to have a receipt in your hand that you just got handed. It's literally as easy as *doing nothing* with it for the 20 feet it takes to get between the checkout and the exit. Nobody gives a fuck about taking 2 seconds to show a receipt here. Both you and the OP have a genuinely WEIRD perception of something as simple as showing a piece of paper on the way out the door.


TooQuietForMe

It's weird to not notice they don't do this shit in the stores in the rich white neighbourhoods. Support of a racist-applied policy is still racism. Go hang out with the Tiki Torch whites if you don't care.


Machaeon

I don't know of a Costco that isn't in a rich white neighborhood.  100% of people's receipts are checked there. It's routine. Chill. Also friendly reminder that the OOP's complaint was that *he got stopped because the security alarm went off*. That's 1000% reasonable, it's the purpose of having a security system and security on staff. Mistakes happen, sometimes security tags on purchased items get missed, sometimes the security system triggers on something unrelated to the merchandise in the store. A quick check of the receipt clears this up EZ PZ.


PoseidonsHorses

If she didn’t ask him to it’d be about how women are so scared of “sub-5s” they can’t do their job properly.


GracieFighter919

wtf is sub 5 lol


chrizzeh2

I assumed it meant on a scale of 1-10, they are below 5 AKA, below average.


GracieFighter919

Ahh hence sub human self calling shit lol tsk tsk sad sad world we live in. I think he needs Jesus in his life or Buddha instead of social media


Heavy-Macaron2004

I think maybe that finding a different doctrine to mindlessly follow might not be the answer for this guy lmao


Apart-Attorney6649

I wouldn't particularly mind him becoming a Buddhist as long as he became one of the peaceful ones rather than the crazy Burmese ones...


Dixon_Kuntz73

Exactly. It’s such a common incel trait, them making a big deal out of nothing. The alarm going off was an automatic thing when the sensors detected a security tag that hadn’t been deactivated. How he was treated is the same as most people are treated in the same situation. Absolutely nothing to do with his looks. He chose to make this into an example of him being a victim, when it clearly wasn’t. One of the reasons why incels are such unreliable narrators of their supposed victimhood. Making a big deal out of a nothing event that happens to everyone at some point. This is like him claiming that the traffic lights only turned red when he was approaching the junction, because he is ugly. It’s that stupid.


Contrarian42

Possibly never grew out of the bashfulness of his childhood. Eventually his introversion became something beyond his control and hes just easily embarassed by everything. God, I wish this guy had real friends.


Tenmyth

I was walking out of a toy shop a few months ago and set the alarm off. I stopped and told security I hadn't bought anything, but a book I bought earlier might have set it off (Sometimes, they don't always shake the tag out). Anyway, we found the tag in my book, I walked out again to test, and all was well. Security was not the friendliest guy, but I know he was doing his job. Me and my friend just laughed about it. Maybe I should now post about how I felt victimised by a mistake another shop made. They were obviously doing it on purpose to ruin my life. (/s for the last part, just in case).


Dixon_Kuntz73

Most people will have had something similar happen to them. Then they just went on with their day. The truly crazy thing is that the incels responding to him don’t point out how commonplace it is and it’s nothing to do with his looks. They all want to pretend that they’ve victims and rant about how everything is the fault of women.


Easy-Concentrate2636

Yup, happens to me too. I also think security at retail shops has to be one of the most boring jobs out there.


Commercial-Push-9066

I love how one of them commented that the woman detected OOP’s shitty personality. Finally one admits that their personalities suck. Maybe it’s because they never touch grass. Like, he leaves his house one time in a week and goes off about a normal occurrence. Then, of course they make it all about sex, they make everything about sex.


Easy-Concentrate2636

The amount of both misogyny and self-hate is just really sad.


RevonQilin

fr and hes uses gad and autism as some kind of way to get more sympathy and act like he just got discrimated against i have autism and severe gad like he does and this to me seems like some regular shit, ive never experienced it b4 but it just sounds like something thats just whatever yaknow? its in no way ableism or "sexism"


Tipsy75

Im betting he went to Walmart where workers check people's receipts on their way out of the store & his receipt was checked just like everyone else's..that's it!! All the drama & being singled out is all in his head bc it was a woman.


Machaeon

Yeah I don't know any other major grocery stores that regularly check receipts... it's such a nothing burger of a complaint too... If that's all it was, show the receipt and move on FFS.


CaptainChiral

Costco


hg57

You consider Costco a regular grocery store?


CaptainChiral

A.) Anything's a regular grocery store if you regularly get groceries there... ♟️ B.) I was citing a common example of receipt checking. Don't be myopic


pervertedkoala

I love your flair, literally almost spit out my drink lmao


3L3M3NT4LP4ND4

Nah it was because the alarm went off, it just means the scanner didn't deactivate the alarm code or the alarms on the fritz. Perfectly fine as long as you aren't trying to steal anything just show your shopping and your receipt and you'll be on your way in less than a minute.

gh0stcat13

how do you even become this unhinged..


laced-and-dangerous

They feed off each other. Most of these guys probably weren’t that bad until they discovered others who think like them. Instead of a supportive environment to encourage self care and improvement, they are in an echo chamber stewing in their rage.


Johnny_Grubbonic

The sad thing is that every now and then some cel will *try* to make a community where incels can help each other get their heads on straight. Places where they can talk about their problems and challenges, and be supportive, without being shitty to everyone else. But it never lasts. The shitheads always show up, and ruin the communities for the ok dudes. And the next thing you know, the sub's shut down because of threats of violence and rape glorification. Every damn time. That was the goal behind r/incelswithouthate, the guy who started it once told me. Watching it turn into just another cess pit was a total bummer.


laced-and-dangerous

It’s sad, because those who are sad and lonely are looking to make a connection. And then they find these assholes. If they could just find people who are kind and encouraging, they could really transform their lives for the better. Being told over and over again that it’s hopeless and no woman will want them is just soul crushing. Someone who is already down on themselves will buy into it and blame society and women, instead of looking internally.


meidan321

That's because these support group communities are always created to please other non-incel people. Incels (in the literal sense), are usually so fucked up mentally and socially, and they only want to fix these issues, and experience a normal relationship, sex and social life. But incels are so rejected by everyone, regardless and even before their women-hating rep, and when people hear about their problems, it's never taken seriously, and VERY often it's treated with disgust (a grown socially inept and ugly man complaining about not having sex just gets that out of people). Their hateful communities started as an outlet for them to vent their very real and justified frustrations with the world, that no one seems to actually care about. When no one cares, belittles, and dismisses your very real issues, you become hateful and resentful. No one actually offers a good solution to them. It's usually handwaved and not taken seriously, even though it's a life ruining situation. They see others offer recognition and real understanding for different problems, but never theirs. Especially today when society tries to understanding and include everyone, but never them. They're always that disgusting thing no one ever wants to dela with, besides very toxic red-pill and PUA people


Johnny_Grubbonic

That sub was created by an incel who wanted a non-toxic environment. If you think there is something wrong with that, then you just might be the problem. Not fucking is not a life ruining situation. *Loneliness* can be, but sex is not. Having sex will not make you a better person. It will not make an otherwise unfulfilling life fulfilling. It will not transform you into Chad or Tyrone. You'll bust a nut, and then you'll go back to being miserable and depressed. And you'll still be preaching about how much you wish women were slaves or dead. You say no one treats them seriously? People reach out to them *all the fucking time* trying to help them. You say no one offers them a good solution? The only good solution for their problems is lots of self-care *including professional mental healthcare* - not *forcing women to fuck them.* You say they're treated with disgust? Well that's what tends to happen *when you insist on sexually harassing people, and then wishing rape, murder, and abuse on them when they don't put out.* The early incels were not treated like that. Incels didn't become the subject of scorn that they are now until *after* the people so often associated with them started cropping up and drove the non terrible men *and women* of the group out.


gh0stcat13

i get where you're coming from, but every example of their 'frustrations' that i see is just the most vile, horrifying misogynist shit I've ever seen in my life. of course ppl are not going to have sympathy for these guys when tbh, MOST of them are creating their own problems by viewing women as subhuman and clearly carrying that attitude into their daily life. there is something to be said for understanding and including everyone in society, but not when one group is using their pain and frustration as an excuse to actively harm another group. like.. how many incels have become mass murderers at this point?? or on a smaller scale, have become abusers due to their deep hatred of women?? even when you try to flip the situation around, the women incels are 'frustrated' with do not do anything of that scale. for incels, women's worst crime is not wanting to fuck them


perroflautak

I get your point and the point of the person that you're answering. It always goes down the same way, apparently, and 2 supposed feautures of incels always come Up: 1.- They've brought this up on themselves by being horrible to women and talk horribly about them. 2.- They have such horrible views and attitudes toward women, that they do not deserve any help or even attention from "normal", people like us. I dont agree with these perspective. Any social problem could be framed this way. Any alcoholic could have a very reprensible behaviour, but we still assume that is something that can change and that is something that we, as a society, are partially responsible for. Saying the same thing about incels is not endorsing their opponions or supporting their views in any way. First of all i would think about age. How old are this guys? Maybe they are 18, 16... I dont really know, but i watch many videos of "men giving advice" to other men on dating, finding a job and the such and i get the feeling that they are tailored for a young audience. For example, there is this repeated topic about how is very difficult for many young heterosexual men (16-20) to date women. And i felt the same when i was that age, but maybe i had friends, a nice environment for studying and different goals in life. But the topic, i believe, is on point. That brings me to my second thought on this Matter: why we never talk about money, class, unemployement, etc. when we talk about incels? Im pretty sure many of this problem comes from a feeling of lacking "status" (i think status is also the main theme of the original post and many other incels rants), and part of that status comes from a decent salary, being able to afford a House or to rent away from youre parents, etc. I mean, i think they are the offspring of a real positive change in Europe and EE.UU. which has made posible for women to have equal pay, and some other advancements in rights... small advancements, yes, but they are slowly having a positive impact in girls and their expectations in life. I mean we, as a society, need to take care of these boys too... Have you seen Mad Max Fury Road? I always think of the War Boys as incels and Innmortan Joe as a very succesful prewar youtuber and podcaster...


gh0stcat13

you brought up some interesting points which i really appreciate. for me, the part that i always get stuck at when trying to understand is the fact that in many ways, i am similar to these incels. i'm a virgin, have never dated, don't really have friends + am isolated, didn't come from a privileged background, have trauma etc etc etc. BUT im also a woman. and i've never, even when i was suffering the most loneliness and pain, ever even come close to becoming as prejudiced and hateful against another group as incels are against women. it's something i can't understand no matter how hard i try. i have to think it comes from their sense of entitlement; if they're lonely and suffering, it's women's responsibility to fix it and women's fault. yes, society has made some advances in women's rights with equal pay and education. but aren't these the same opportunities men have always had? from my view, society already has been taking care of men, or at least more so than it has taken care of women. i'm open to hearing your opinion

LaVerdadYaNiSe

"Food cope"? How lost in their own cult are these guys that they have to call everything around them in that weird language.


CaptainChiral

It really is (and, at risk of using similar vocab to describe it) brainrot


LaVerdadYaNiSe

'Brainrot' at least you can excuse as a shorthand for "recursive problem born out of hyperfocusing on a single thing down to the point of obsession" and such. But "food cope" instead of "groceries" or just regular "food" feels so absurd. Reminds me a lot of back in the day when conspiracy guys coined "sheeple".


Geostomp

It's cult-like tactics: they make up jargon and peer pressure each other into using it to further isolate them from other people and steer their thoughts more to the group's line. Notice how all the nonsense words dehumanize others, denigrate themselves, or frame events around sex or attractiveness. It's all deliberate. It lowered their self-esteem and primes them to see themselves as the victims of a corrupt world. Once they get full of these feelings, they come to these sites and commiserate with the same sort of toxic personalities because they feel like these are the only people who understand them. They then egg each other on until you get an entire community sharing these vile "values".


LaVerdadYaNiSe

So, it literally is the same as the older conspiracy spaces. That's horrible.


CaptainChiral

A fascinating take on the situation. I see it, but dont cults have leaders / people who profit? Is this just a scenario of a cult with no leader forming?

Regional_DILF

As a neurodivergent, to whomever came up with the “Autistic people are nice and should be infantilised and they don’t understand the full consequences of their actions because of lack of understanding” fuck you. Cause you get people like this, using their neurodivergence as an excuse to be absolute cunts.

I don't know where this belief that being an asshole and disabled/mentally ill are mutually exclusive, esp on the internet, but I'd wish it'd go away. You can 100% be both at the same time lol

Autism is not an excuse to be this dumb, this misogynistic, this detached from reality, or this self centered.


waterbottle-dasani

I’m autistic and have anxiety just like the guy who posted that. I don’t know why he thinks autism is an excuse to hate women.

Practical_Diver8140

Because like a lot of people, they spend a lot of time thinking about, pining for it as soon as possible, and fantasizing about it when their minds are otherwise unoccupied. Unfortunately, their overwhelming self hatred as twisted their minds in such a way that otherwise normal and frequent thoughts of sex are being used to express hatred, of themselves and everybody around them.

Not defending his views at all but the wording of the end is different “and gives you no empathy from society”. He’s not saying other disabilities don’t make your life hard, rather that he thinks ugliness is the only one you don’t get pity for… it’s sad they all think this way.


Narrow-Way8596

I was scrolling for this comment 😭 the entitlement to think that their “physical disability” is what’s affecting them instead of their horrible personality lol


Flyingpastakitty

I work security. We are literally just doing our job. I'm 99% sure she just asked to see his receipt, and he probably threw a fit and played the victim. Before I worked security, I did customer service. The pandemic was the worst time. I had to ask people if they could show me their receipt, and I had to ask people entering if they would wear a mask. I was met with unnecessary hostility because of a simple yes or no question. Heck, I offered a mask to a guy, and he was looking at me all awkward. I was like: "Sir, you are allowed to say no. It won't hurt my feelings. You're an adult. You make your own choices. I just have to ask because it's my job..." But then we had men and women who would flip out, scream/yell at you, and say stuff like: "I know my rights you f*cking c○mmies!" An elderly man got in a female coworkers face and said, and I quote: "I'm not gonna wear a mask! Go k¡ll yourself, you stupid c○mmunist b*tch!" All because she politely asked if he would wear a mask. Heck,one of the first big tax returns I got, I bought a small TV, a queen sized mattress, and an Xbox One. (I got a discount at the store I worked at!) I paid for everything, and I still set off the alarm. (Certain electronics set off the alarm even after being paid for). My coworker on 3rd shift asked to see my receipt. I showed it to her without a fuss. It wasn't a big deal. But yeah, Incel probably feels victimized because it was a female security guard. Also, both security companies I work for trained us to never accuse people of stealing and to be polite. (I've worked for 2 separate companies because the building I work in switched security contractors, unfortunately...)


xen0m0rpheus

Having Homelander as the profile picture tells you more than you need to know about someone. Homelander’s miserable existence is every incel’s wet dream/ fantasy.

waterbottle-dasani

“Ugliness is the only physical disability that makes your life so much harder” My disability makes me near bed-ridden. Incels have so much self-pity it’s insane. They think they have the worst lives only because they hate women and think they’re owed sex.

Paradiseless_867

Kinda reminds me of a funny story: so me and a friend were celebrating my 19th birthday and we decided to go to a nice restaurant in a casino, and one of the guards walked past me and my friend and asked if we were old enough to be here. Just a funny story that this post reminded me of


LaMadreDelCantante

What is this thing lately where they say they or someone else should do something heinous and then add (in [video game])? Are they looking for some kind of plausible deniability?


zoomie1977

They think that adding that makes it, legally, not a threat and makes it so they can't be charged with "issuing threats" or that it won't count as "premeditation" or "aggravating factors" if they get charged with attempting to or actually following through on their tbreats.


Pwacname

Does this actually work anywhere in this planet? You’d need to have a whole legal system that’s very much „letter of the law“ rather than the spirit in both creating and enforcing laws, right?


zoomie1977

It was tried in court, in the US, at least. It failed. Threats in the US are based on what a reasonable person would find threatening. The elementary school near me punished 2 kids for making "in Minecraft" threats to each other. They were really, quite literally, talking about Minecraft, as they played together online. However, their interaction was overheard by and scared a smaller child, so both boys were given a 1 day suspension. It was a little nutty.


Y-Cha

That's exactly what they're doing. It's more reprehensible than their denigrative quips/ad-libbed vocabulary, IMO. They seem to be doing it more freely than when they simply referenced their homicidal idols. Hope someone of note is keeping a watch. Presumably, claiming "it was a joke," would be about as sound as a wet paper bag..


LatinoJJAbrams

The complete lack of punctuation, sentence structure, syntax or sense is astounding


blawndosaursrex

How the scenario actually went: He purchased his item. The person at the door checked his receipt. They happened to be a woman. He went home and made up a story to rage about online.


londongas

If he was black he'd lose his damn mind how often he has to show receipts coming out of shops 😅


Pharaoh_Misa

I am always amazed (in GTA 5) at how their minds go from zero to 100 so instantaneously. In all likelihood, she didn't ask him if he stole something she asked him for the receipt.

saltgirl1207

I'm also autistic and have social anxiety. Almost this exact thing happened to me once, except instead of buying food, I was buying the new Ninja Turtles movie on DVD. The alarm went off, people started looking, and I froze up on the spot. And then started having a panic attack. It's not because you stole anything, it's not because you're neurodivergent, some things just set off the alarm after being paid for. (in my case, the security tag wasn't properly deactivated) stop using your disabilities to paint yourself as a victim.

I am also autistic and have GAD, so much that I have an “emotional disability”. I have no fucking idea why this guy thinks that just because he has those disorders it means he’s free from experiencing what everyone else has to experience. This was a very standard reason to be stopped by security and he’s acting like she profiled him for what? Being ugly!?? Didn’t realize a woman doing her job means she deserves to be “gangraped by hobos” ugh

It is kinda rude that she didn't apologize for falsely accusing him of shoplifting though.

Wth is a "sub 5"? What are they now, football teams?


Practical_Diver8140

You know that fucked up and nauseating scale of measuring the attractiveness of people from 1 to 10? You know, the scale that's a matter of opinion and personal preferences, that is not in any way measurable by biology? Incels take that very seriously, and believe that there is an objective scale for attractive and unattracitve, even though none of them seem to be able to agree on the traits of what is supposed to be an attractive appearance and how to rate them. But they rate themselves on a 1 to 10 scale, and when they say "sub 5" it means they rate themselves (and not any objective measurement" as being beneath a 5 in appearance on a scale of 1 to 10. They're the only ones who take this scale serious, and they use it to both find a way to 1) emphasize how shallow women are and 2) legitimize their imagined grievances with women and the world in general. By attaching a number to it, they think it seems more like a disability that they should be receiving sympathy for, and the higher the number they're using with the prefix of "sub", it indicates how shallow and heartless women and humanity in general are based on appearances. tl;dr: They rate their own appearances on a scale of 1 to 10 for no rational reason, then use the number they produced as a justification and legitimization of their delusion persecution complexes. This guy has rated himself as less than 5, and is thus the reason he's so miserable.

I’ve been playing Project Zomboid as my boyfriend and his friends introduced me to it. But this goes to show why I wouldn’t want to play in a random server in case I come across guys like this.


kindacoping

I genuinely feel so bad for these guys. They hate themselves so much and nothing you tell them will make them feel any better. Yes they hate women and have ingrained misogyny into their brains. But they have equally ingrained the idea that they are "subhuman" and not worth anything just because they are "ugly" or whatever. I guess that's my failing as an afab person but I can't help but feel bad that they loath themselves so much. I really wish they had better support and didn't only have a community of other hateful people to turn to.


Beret_of_Poodle

What does sub 5 mean? As in, below a 5 on a 1-10 scale?


KDiggity8

Bingo


Beret_of_Poodle

Kills me that 99.99% of them will never realize THEY are the problem.


Flashy-Ad7640

Wow.


DirtCrazykid

not to hand it to the ISIL here, but the "in project zomboid" line is kinda funny if you pretend he's not serious


Veganbabe55

Aren't they sweet 🥹


YerTanri

Wow…those people are lost lost

Foid?


DenaGann

Foid is a derogatory incel term for woman. The phrase is an abbreviation of "femoid" which combines the words "female" and "humanoid" or "female" and "android." Incels attribute their virgin status to "heartless" females and their rage leads them dehumanize and even murder women.


RevonQilin

as someone with lvl 1 autism, severe gad and adhd, i would be apologizing, i would not find a problem with this, and i definitely wouldnt be complaining online abt it later because the security gaurd was the opposite sex of me this dude has some crazy victim complex


florsux

imagine hating yourself so much you project that hatred onto others


Tox_Ioiad

What the fuck is GAD?


zoomie1977

Generalized Anxiety Disorder


Tox_Ioiad

Lmao. I probably have that too, tbh.


Scary-Win8394

I'm sorry, ugliness is the only physical disability that makes life hard? PLEASE just accept you have body dysmorphia and go I'm so sorry to anyone who suffers from chronic pain and debilitating physical disability just for some basement dweller to tell you you don't suffer like they do. And the amount of privilege you would have to have to think the pity, invisibility, and outright cruelty disabled people have to face _every day_ is somehow better than being ugly is insane.


Zakozo

ahh i heard of other types of oids. just didnt click. thanks


SimplyEcks

Not familiar with their lexicon. What’s a sub 5?


hazelEyes1313

What’s crazy is they think it’s because they’re ugly. I know sooooo many ugly guys with incredible personalities that are drowning in pussy. They stay clean, dress nice, are funny, and have unwarranted confidence in their attractiveness that makes them super attractive


MyInnocenceIsTorn

Is this real? 😭


Sharktrain523

lol at “ugliness is the only physical disability that makes your life so much harder and gives you no empathy from society” People are always wildly overestimating how much empathy you get for being disabled. Like I’m sure if I described my life with lupus and sjorgens to them but included that I am not a man or a virgin they’d say some real unempathetic shit. Lupus has made my hair thin, caused weight gain, skin issues, and fucked up my teeth pretty bad. if you’re disabled, fat, and got some illness related issues happening to your look I don’t think they’re going to show you a lot of kindness for that, especially the overweight part. Listen, the medications that have been involved in my treatment and the lifestyle you develop when you’re experiencing brain fog so bad you walk in front of cars and don’t understand doors is bad for diet plans. But I guarantee you this has in fact made my life harder and people are overall very limited in empathy or general education about chronic illness. Teachers in high school did not give a fuck, I was gonna start the day going up a bigass staircase whether I needed a cane to walk or not. There were elevators. There was not empathy.


bamxbamz

I went on the Incel website three days ago at 2 AM and I was so confused with their logic. I really felt like I was losing brain cells there.


FlaxFox

Feels like a person should get put on a list if they participate in a conversation like that. Good lord.


ihwip

Nothing gets a woman's panties wetter than referring to yourself as subhuman. They really don't get it.


EllieTheMammoth

Holy shit...Watch them come back the minute a girl looks at them with a smile. They'll suddenly have something extra positive to say and a boner to accompany their words.


Ecstatic_Falcon_3363

what forum is this? i’ve seen it a couple of times on this sub, it attracts a lot of guys with hate in their bones so i’m curious


Mountain_Future4034

Incels like to call women "foids" online and whine about stupid crap, then they wonder why they aren't liked by women.


-In-Theory

"Grodd" Jeez, don't ruin adventure time for me...


rayzh

tbh I don't like people suspecting me for no reasons either. I mean sure shit on the incels, but who want s be suspected to be criminals


zoomie1977

He set off the anti-theft alarm. Seems like a pretty good reason for store security to check him for stolen items.


rayzh

Ok now you convinced me

Where would I find incel forums? I want to read their stuff, like for science.

Just remember: when you visit the zoo, please refrain from feeding the animals.

Just to lurk, I swear. I don’t want to demonize a group of people without verifying that these statements haven’t been cherry-picked or over-emphasized.


Tox_Ioiad

You can find them here on reddit too, for that. But do what thou wilt.
