Fellas, is it gay to apologize?

My ex, well if you can even call it that, dumped me because I apparently apologize too much and "apologies are useless and just show that you lack confidence".

So, according to her, yes.

"Abuse me harder. Nothing like force to prove your point!"

Dodged a bullet there

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 20 points 2 months ago

I will say that apologies without the intent to change behavior suck. They're there to politely admit that you recognize you made a mistake, and that you're going to try to not repeat it. If you don't have the last part then it's useless. However, with the last part, they're one of the things that take the most strength for a person to do.

Yeah, the second I see anyone trying to make a point by using AIGen images, there point is already invalid in my mind.

They don't even have the gall to use random non-AI stock images or even better, use shitty hand drawn images.

Either way, I can't give this an upvote, morally, but it is kinda funny, though.

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 51 points 2 months ago

And what the fuck is up with that floating keyboard passing through his hands? What an absurd thing.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 months ago

Only alpha chads have comically long middle fingers!

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

oh no it's worse, his hands are joined at the middle finger

Maybe I’m getting older but I feel like texting someone so late they didn’t read it until after the proposed meeting time might not be a good strategy either.

[-] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 44 points 2 months ago

It's a power move, bro. They'll realize they're already late which creates a sense of urgency. Like and subscribe for more alpha tips on manipulating others.

Liked and subbed!! Do you have any overpriced courses or supplements I can buy?

[-] ricecake@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 months ago

If you send me $45.50 a month, I'll send you a pair of my musky socks to huff and absorb my masculinity once a week. For another $10, I'll also send you a supplement pack that'll help you feel like a real man again. (It's caffeine, ibuprofen, Mucinex and an secret ingredient that's legally different from tums).

I had to re-read it several times to figure out how it wasn't supposed to be a gay hookup.

[-] Hobo@lemmy.world 47 points 2 months ago

I still don't get how it isn't a gay hookup. How are you supposed to read it?

[-] moakley@lemmy.world 41 points 2 months ago

I guess we're supposed to look at the guy on the left and instead of thinking "He is in distress," we're supposed to think, "He is unfuckable." And we're supposed to look at the guy on the right and instead of thinking, "He is going to fuck that other guy," we're supposed to think, "He is so fuckable."

I think it's gay either way you look at it.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 21 points 2 months ago

It's going for "No woman will respect beta left guy's wussy way of asking to hook up while women love gigachad right guy's demand for it."

[-] moakley@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago

Ohh. They're not even texting each other. They're texting two other dudes. That makes a lot more sense.

[-] Fleur_@aussie.zone 21 points 2 months ago

They're not texting each other, they're texting their girlfriends

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Or boyfriends, the story does not tell...

Why are AI slop always piss colored?

[-] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 55 points 2 months ago

The training data contains lots of newspaper comics. Newsprint paper is high in acid and as a result yellows over time. Notice the piss comics are usually animated in an anacronistic style, using styles more similar to Older comics despite often being focused on modern life.

[-] kboy101222@sh.itjust.works 27 points 2 months ago

They trained it exclusively on late 2000s-2010s video games

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

Which, as we all remember, were all piss themed, which was the style at the time.

Eww. The 9pm guy has both hands connected by one common middle finger. That seems unhandy.

This AI slop is so dumb too

  • left guy is breaking past his keyboard
  • right guy has his message read one minute after he told them to arrive, meaning he was left on read until the literal last second

Like even in their dream scenario, they're unread? Lmao

[-] Baguette 17 points 2 months ago

also funnily enough they added an extra I on the keyboard

[-] bluesheep@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 months ago

Don't forget the giant middle finger on the guy on the right

God I hate slop. But I guess if you're a talentless man-o-sphere idiot you'd see no other choice

[-] orgrinrt@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Oh christ I didn’t realize the timing thing, makes this that much more funny. The confident look of the guy when he sees he finally got read a minute after the time they confidently told the other party to come.

It’s so dumb, oh my god

Torn between downvote for AI and upvote for kinda funny

[-] MountingSuspicion@reddthat.com 20 points 2 months ago

For what it's worth, the AI is being used by a lame "alpha bro" account that is being mocked in the meme.

Unrelated, but also worth pointing out to people scrolling by that generally if you know someone wants to hang out you wouldn't start with an apology. So the guy is likely apologizing because he's aware his advances are unwanted but is doing it anyway. The second guy is unlikely to get any traction with people he doesn't already know, and is exemplary as the kind of low effort garbage women complain about on dating apps, or communicating with someone he already has a preexisting relationship with who would already have his address.

I also read it as two gay guys texting each other at first.

I can tell even "good" AI images because of the weird over manufactured look, kinda hard to describe it's kinda like how fake leather feels wrong. But anyways this has the same weird energy as those weirdly gay Sino-Soviet propaganda posters.

Alpha bros and pickup artists make a lot more sense once you know about the Diagnostic Checklist for Psychopathy.

spoilerItem 1: Glibness/superficial charm
Item 2: Grandiose sense of self-worth
Item 3: Need for stimulation/proneness to boredom
Item 4: Pathological lying
Item 5: Conning/manipulative
Item 6: Lack of remorse or guilt
Item 7: Shallow affect
Item 8: Callous/lack of empathy
Item 9: Parasitic lifestyle
Item 10: Poor behavioral controls
Item 11: Promiscuous sexual behavior
Item 12: Early behavior problems
Item 13: Lack of realistic, long-term goals
Item 14: Impulsivity
Item 15: Irresponsibility
Item 16: Failure to accept responsibility for own actions
Item 17: Many short-term marital relationships
Item 18: Juvenile delinquency
Item 19: Revocation of conditional release
Item 20: Criminal versatility

One of the most commonly observed traits in psychopathy (the actual mental disorder, not the distorted tiktok pop-sci version of it) is that someone suffering from it has very reduced feelings of anxiety and shame. Makes sense that they'd be confused by someone else feeling anxious and not really understanding why they'd choose to present like that.

[-] lena@gregtech.eu 16 points 2 months ago

Huh, it really does make sense now that I think about it.

I hate how we live in a world where this kind of behaviour is not just accepted, it's often a desired trait. Lots of CEOs are psychopaths.

Y'know, I first read the image, and it felt like "Oh, so Man1 isn't feeling great, so his friend Men2 tells him to come to have at his place to talk about it or just do something fun. That's a nice friendship".

That perception did not survived the rest of the text.

Lol the attempt to show a fast read actually made it look like the text wasn't read until after the meeting time had passed.

[-] Bucky@hardpass.lol 15 points 2 months ago

why would she be reading the text one minute after it told her to be there? Doesn't that speak even worse for the alpha male?

The read timestamp actually makes it funnier.

[-] bitcrafter@programming.dev 11 points 2 months ago

You can also tell that the guy on the left is the weak one because he actually needs a keyboard to type out his text message whereas the guy on the right can do it with his mind alone.
