The rarely sighted "hover claw"

This is actually pretty mean. It's like she's goading the idea that he believes it was a date, plus he doesn't look like a neckbeard.

Fuck you Allison!

[–]Fire_Bucket 239ポイント240ポイント  (59子コメント)

It seems more like she's trying to makesure the rest of her friends etc know it wasn't a date, rather than to make him know it wasn't.

[–]mpprog 139ポイント140ポイント  (57子コメント)

Which is still cold af.

Not really. Scenario:

They go out to eat as friends. He asks random to take a picture with his phone. Random takes picture, he puts arm around her, posts picture to Facebook.

She couldn't really say don't put your arm around me without sounding mean. But she still needs to diffuse the situation because she's been hoping her friend Chad asks her out. So she makes a simple joke that really isn't that mean because the friend she was with posted a photo that might make Chad think he doesn't have a chance.

Seems pretty reasonable on her part.

Of course his name is Chad.

I have you tagged as 'Judges others by the size of their rare pepe collection'

edit nevermind

Or, they're legit good platonic friends and her comment is preempting everyone saying "OMG are you two finally dating?"

Or, they're platonic friends out with a group and asked to pose for a pic, and she's just making a joke, because it ended up looking kind of couply.

It could be a pretty cold comment, but there's def some context needed to be sure whether it is or isn't.

[–]LOOK_AT_ME_BITCH 15ポイント16ポイント  (15子コメント)

Plus she's way out of his leauge, wouldn't want people to think I was dating down either

[–]Elaine_Benes_ 7ポイント8ポイント  (3子コメント)

They both look pretty equally attractive to me honestly

[–]RolloTonyBrownTown 49ポイント50ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ok Charles, whatever you say

[–]Burger_Fingers 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

They look like a pair of ugly lesbians

[–]Johnny_PottSagan Disciple -3ポイント-2ポイント  (0子コメント)

I agree and we don't know anything about them other than their attractiveness. Charles might be pulling in 100k a year for all we know.

[–]lokitheinane 2ポイント3ポイント  (8子コメント)

thinking there are leagues is neckbeardy af, imo.

Edit; got it together

[–]myhiphurts 9ポイント10ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's league ffs, get it together people.

[–]_Discard_Account_ 3ポイント4ポイント  (3子コメント)

Do you really think there's a realistic chance that two people who look like this would end up dating each other?

This guy with this girl...

...or this girl with this guy?

Assuming none of them have a disproportionately larger amount of wealth or a high-status career, it's just not that likely. It's not about it being "wrong" for them to date, but about overall trends in terms of partners' relative attractiveness compared to each other. That's what leagues are.

You can argue against it all you like, pointing to exceptions, but the larger trend is there whether you realize it or not.

[–]lokitheinane -2ポイント-1ポイント  (1子コメント)

No, i agree that people who think their physical appearance is v important and put a lot of effort into it tend to also date other people with similar priorities, but saying they're out of each-others league implies a hierarchy, and fuck that.

[–]_Discard_Account_ 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Personally, I would never say to someone that another person is "out of their league", because on an individual basis, that's not necessarily true and it can't be stated as an absolute.

But in a general sense, there are "leagues of attractiveness", whether that's caused purely by the genetic lottery or by putting in a whole bunch of effort to look the best you possibly can. I mean, there are gorgeous people out there who spend very little time on their appearance, and unfortunate-looking people who spend a LOT of time on theirs but still look unattractive.

The beautiful people who don't put in any extra effort still enjoy the same "league" as the decent-looking person who goes all-out with clothing, hair, makeup, dieting, etc. That's just how life is.

[–]Joe_VahkiinCaptain Neckbeard 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

There kind of is though.

I'm not even being neckbeardy, it's basic evolutionary psychology. We have a natural inclination to select a mate who will produce the strongest and healthiest offspring who themselves are likely to achieve reproductive success.

This means youthful features, facial symmetry, a hip-waist ratio of 0.7 in women, lots of resources in men (not as important in women due to anisogamy).

Which sounds like an extremely neckbeardy description of what men and women want but I can back it up with studies if you really want me to go through my Psychology notes.

Now, that's not to say that other factors affecting our choices in a mate can't 'override' flaws in our body, our wealth, etc. - but there is a clear and obvious bias from an evolutionary perspective. Hence, leagues.

[–]lokitheinane -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

you ever notice how evolutionary psychology seems to agree with 1960's mysoginy on basically ever point? let's see them studies?

[–]ToxicKrusader -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Or you know. He could've been reasonable and asked her if that was her boyfriend.

[–]Majecman 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Charles may be gay as well which would make sense.

[–]_Woodrow_ 9ポイント10ポイント  (27子コメント)

How else should she address it?

[–]heterosapian 1ポイント2ポイント  (4子コメント)

Privately. Nothing is implied by the photo and if she's insecure about it she shouldn't post it. It's like changing your profile pic to have the gay flag overlay and then saying "haha, no homo".

[–]Potna 17ポイント18ポイント  (0子コメント)

I don't think she posted the picture.

[–]_Woodrow_ 6ポイント7ポイント  (2子コメント)

I'm pretty sure she wasn't the one who posted it

[–]heterosapian -2ポイント-1ポイント  (1子コメント)

You're right, still don't think there's much tact in saying it there though.

[–]_Woodrow_ 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

She was making a joke of it! The only way this guy is going to be crushed is if he secretly is harboring feelings for her- and if that's the case, that's on him, not her.

[–]petit_cochon 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Not if he put that up with the intention of staking a claim.

[–]internetalterego 27ポイント28ポイント  (8子コメント)

He might be a homosexual. It's not mean if he's not interested in girls.

Allison, you rancid swine!

[–]thearn4 11ポイント12ポイント  (3子コメント)

Bigger question is, what does this have to do with neckbeards at all?

[–]verygenericname2 10ポイント11ポイント  (2子コメント)

Specifying that it wasn't a date, links it to friendzoning, which is linked to Niceguys, which is linked to Neckbeards.

I also feel some straws might have been clutched at along the way.

[–]tz100 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

Nah, looks like he's going for a sneaky Temple of Doom heart rip.

[–]Berner 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah but look, they're in a group setting. She could be pointing that it looks like it was just the two of them out.

[–]punkhoboM'alt Liquor 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Allison, you ignorant slut

[–]unclewaltsband 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

It was probably a group outing. That's a big table and it's possible the waiter/waitress didn't take the picture. Also - people, always use the word "date" when asking someone out. It's pretty easy. Don't ask if they want to "get something to eat." Or "go out and talk." Or any of that loophole bullshit.

[–]Monkeyavelli 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Why? It seems like he was posting this photo to make it look like they had a relationship. If you showed me that pic I would also assume it was a couple, not just friends.

[–]CantaloupeCamper 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Maybe he's gay?

Maybe they're both comfortable with their non relationship status?

This is only a problem if dude really does want to date her and that comment is news to him.

[–]max_f_robespierre 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Neckbeard is a mentality, not a look.

Im sure she let him pay though, like friends always do....

Is this mocking neckbeards?

[–]HashSlingingSlacker 36ポイント37ポイント  (1子コメント)

this just doesn't belong here

[–]NeedAction 31ポイント32ポイント  (5子コメント)

Maybe she wants the guy to ask her on a real date?

[–]IAmHercules 12ポイント13ポイント  (3子コメント)

Yeah... That would be the assumption I'd make too...

This sub is a mirror sometimes.

[–]SirGallantLionheart 6ポイント7ポイント  (2子コメント)

"Hey charles it looks like were on a date" *wink *wink *nudge *nudge *cough *cough

It's weird how this sub will assume things are the worst neckbeardy shit no matter what especially since the dude is handsome as fuck.

[–]IAmHercules 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

he's not unattractive... but hardly handsome as fuck.

point is I'd say they're even which suggests...

[–]DilbertPickles 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Handsome as fuck? That's the most feminine handsome I've ever seen.

[–]pheonixignition 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

That's what I'm thinking. This doesn't scream "oh no! That's not it!" It seems more like, "don't we look good? Hint. Hint."

[–]DunwoodysMostWanted 46ポイント47ポイント  (6子コメント)

Man, talk about gay-face. That dude looks like Pinocchio's flamboyant little brother.

[–]juicepants 19ポイント20ポイント  (5子コメント)

Yeah my guess is gay best friend not friend zoned nice guy.

[–]punkhoboM'alt Liquor 9ポイント10ポイント  (3子コメント)

He also goes by Charles.

[–]DunwoodysMostWanted 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

Is that a gay name?

I work with a dude named Charles. He doesn't have gay-face, and the women of the office have decided that he "looks like a Justin."

[–]nerfdude 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

The fact that he hasn't shortened it is kind of a gay affectation. I have a gay friend named Andrew who flips shit if you call him Andy, Drew, etc.

[–]RolloTonyBrownTown 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

True, he'd go by Chuck if he was down to fuck (Ladies)

[–]quagsires 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Gayzoned. Also that comment is a little harsh considering it's only for her own ego.

[–]Naggers123 20ポイント21ポイント  (7子コメント)

If anyone genuinely sees this as some kind of friendzone/ neckbeard anything, this sub is really messing with your head.

Sometimes a comment is just a comment.

[–]lurkerhorker 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

Too many people here over thinking this based on such little context.

It's the neckbeard in your heart which counts.

Shes pretty obviously giving him a hint.

[–]gh5046 -1ポイント0ポイント  (2子コメント)

Also, it could be the opposite of how people are interpreting it. Perhaps she's crushing on him and this is her flirting.

[–]quagsires -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

Lol its staring you in the face, he wasn't friend zoned but she was obviously trying to make it clear to her friends to try and save face.

[–]Horrible-Human 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

HA HA FUCK YOU CHARLES

[–]RightCross4 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Maybe she's going after him, trying to convince him that they look good together. Or maybe it wasn't a date, just a group, as someone else, maybe a friend, took the picture.
