The Ubermensch
If a man is so inclined, he can learn everything he needs to know from one source: Superman. How to act, how to treat the less fortunate, how to live lies and lead double lives — it’s all there for men. That’s because Superman isn’t an alien from another planet, what he really is is the archetype for all men. Think about it.
Honor, strength, laser vision; I couldn’t pick three words that would better describe a man. That’s from Superman. Know what else is from Superman? Men are better than women.
I know what none of you men are thinking: “You can’t compare Superman to all women and say men are better than women! That’s stupid!” I know you’re not thinking that because it’s a dumb fucking thing to think. That’s a woman-type thought. No, that’s not what I’m saying, but what I will be saying requires a certain man-derstanding of literature and storytelling in all forms. That means this article needs an extra no women allowed disclaimer.
No Women Allowed.
Stories of epic proportion require balance or else you end up with some womanly thing of no importance or value — like that chick-flick Something’s Gotta Give. Man that thing is a piece of shit. In the Superman mythos, the balance is as follows. Superman is good; Lex Luthor is evil. Superman is wise and experienced; Jimmy Olsen is naïve but respectful and willing to learn. There is a synergy there and lessons there that all men can draw from; good or bad. Finally, the most important pairing: Superman is a man; Lois Lane is a woman.
It’s perfect. First of all, any man has about as good a chance of being a flying, cape-wearing alien with the ability to spin the world in reverse as any woman has of being a competent, confident career woman who doesn’t stick her foot down her throat when all that’s required is a “Yes please” and “Thank you. I’ll have another”.
While Lois Lane is a successful woman, just like in real life, it means she’s also a raving bitch. Lois Lane is an attention whore and a single-minded maniac who constantly sticks her nose and feet where they don’t belong and usually ends up costing Superman huge chunks of his time pulling her ass out of the fire and her head out of her ass. In that amount of time, thousands of people die in catastrophes and genocides all over the world. Does that stop her? No.
Fuck everyone else. As long as I get my piece of the corporate pie Greater Good be damned. That’s a female trait if I’ve ever heard one. Women constantly sell out their children and families lusting after the vaulted status of Career Woman — which usually just means sitting behind a desk in real estate and shuffling papers. That’s probably called equality in sewing circles and book clubs, but in my world it’s called a dead-end job and a fucking waste of time. Women have as much place in careers as does the letter q. Do you see a q in career?
The most valuable lesson of all is that just like all men, Superman has only one weakness: kryptonite. If there’s no kryptonite about, Superman is a badass no-nonsense ass kicker who doesn’t take any kind of guff. Men are exactly the same, except that instead of kryptonite it’s anal and (surprisingly to women) not constant bitching and obligations. Women are just too stupid to think outside the box.

Top of the morning to you.
What kind of a question is that? Fine. Decrease, obviously.
Female, if the Sun were to suddenly revolve around the Earth instead of presenting some negligible wobble, would it mean that the Earth’s mass were now larger, slighter or equivalent to that of the Sun?

Ditto.
If the sun were to revolve around the earth then this would mean…that the earth’s mass would have to be much larger than the sun. I’m pretty sure.

“You’re a woman. Otherwise there would be no point in keeping your gender a secret, no?”
My gender? Actually, I’m androgynous.
“I kno what Human is doing. She’s been scarred and humiliated before by someone smarter than her, so she decides to reuse all which was used against her to prove that she is superior.
I did something of the same a few years ago. That’s behind me now, but I see through it. Also, notice the ‘*smile*’ she put somewhere, trying to act like she’s made a point which can’t be argued.”
D’oh! You caught me! I do use the smile thing, but only to give a mental image. I try to put myself off as kind. I guess it’s not working, so I’ll stop. Sorry for trying to be friendly.
But I’ve never been humiliated by a smarter person. Never. Want to know why? Instead of preaching jargon, I’ve been asking questions, and gaining information. It’s just easier to do. That way, I’m never humiliated. I ask away. How are you doing today? What do you do for a hobby? How’s your family? What is your stand on this matter? That sort of thing. It’s on the Internet where I take my data and put it to use, because it’s full of interesting topics. I’m no expert, but I love posing them questions!

Nicely done, Female! You get a cookie.

Hydralysk, if no one’s seen it fit to comprehensibly engage your contorted puerile rants it’s really not because you aren’t trying hard enough. It’s because they don’t care. Go away.
And drop the hermaphrodite angle. It’s getting just a tad old. Others have trolled here before, you know? Cough… some still do.
I wonder if that msrtool is at all worth its salt.

O, o, ok here is a question. What is your point? What is your point of coming on here? What is your point of existence? What is your point for living?

“O, o, ok here is a question. What is your point? What is your point of coming on here? What is your point of existence? What is your point for living?”
My point: I’m bored.
Coming on here: I’m -very- bored. I need a challenge.
Existence: To live long and prosper! To seek new life, and new civilizations! To boldly go where no human has gone before! … Which is impossible due to technology, but hey, we’re getting there!
Living: To bother people for information! To pose you a question! To run around the block giving people a little dance! Something like that. Or oh! I’ve never been to Nepal. I must see Nepal. Want to come along? What are you doing next Tuesday?
I’m being sarcastic about bringing you to Nepal with me, but still, you know? It’s fun gaining information. It’s full of novelties and surprises and answers questions… It’s just -more fun- than going blah blah blah every day. My teeth are meant to chew on a steak, not hiss at people meandering down the street, you know? That’s not nice!

His input is that your words are empty, and cliché. Just like i told you.

I love this site because there’s hardly any bullshit on it. Well, the articles. The comments are mostly bullshit. And I know what you’re doing. So you failed. You know why?
A true manipulatist does not make it look like he is manipulating someone.

I think you’ll enjoy this particular quote from Robert Greenes blog:

“The anti-manipulators are those who somehow claim exemption from the very human need and impulse to manipulate in some way. And those who deny this are generally the biggest manipulators of them all.”
Thank you for finding this quote, Dalsgaard.

“Notice the sixth word of the phrase and take to heart. Take your time. Read as many times as necessary.”
Yeah, I know. But ‘man’ as in mankind. Star Trek has reformed even itself, and stresses discord to gender on opinionated matters.

Human I’d tell you to change your name to primate but you’re not even capable of entry level tool use and hunting.
You’re only capable of living off your daddy or husbands money and taking exotic vacations on it “because”.
Change your name to useless tick.

If you want to learn more about human beings in general, and the practical employment of power, strategy, and seduction in social settings - I can highly recommend Robert Greenes books.
Have a look at http://www.powerseductionandwar.com - this topic however, is very dominated by men, and i honestly doubt it will interest you.

“Human I’d tell you to change your name to primate but you’re not even capable of entry level tool use and hunting.”
Then how am I typing, and how do I dismiss your insult so easily?
“You’re only capable of living off your daddy or husbands money and taking exotic vacations on it “because”.”
Well, you never asked me, so you have the misfortune of knowing that I make my own salary (an incredibly flexible one at that), and I have no interest in marriage at all. I work hard at what I do, and I take the money I earn and enjoy it by going places.

All information interests me. Thank you for the link.
