you ascended to the top of the male dominance hierarchy

you turned your autism from a weakness to a strength, and the mating female came to you

that's some warrior shit right there

this is what I am trying to teach to Capps about women, play to your strengths, girls just want a leader

nice guys finish last because they are too agreeable and women interpret that as being effeminate

Cappy you hear that baby...

Be like TC.

no, be yourself

just don't be a pushover, don't be a doormat, don't beg that mating female to come across

be a man who never asks for love, but knows how to take it

be a man who sees a wall and breaks it

they are just girls, they are looking for a leader

Whatevs. Do your combat training in the woods. I got drywall to hang.

I’ve won the only fistfight anyone cared to try with me, faced down my share of Big Men in the bar scene. Nothing to prove there.

You really don't understand, and that is the problem here...

I’m sure it is

You never lost one?
Awww man, you're missing out on half the lessons.

it's all the lessons, I only learned from getting my ass kicked

I had to get my ass kicked over & over, that's the only way to learn how to fight

Lost a lot of wrestling matches with my friends, lost a whole lot of other things, just not fist fights.

Been jumped by skinheads, been jumped by groups, been sucker punched multiple times, had knives thrown at me, guns pulled on me, shiiiiiiiiiiiit ... that stuff will TEACH you something about fighting. Sometimes you have to take a lot of L's to start building the consistent W's.

Turns out tho ... once you start racking up some W's ... you never really have to fight again.
And if you do, at least you're prepared for it.
Damn.

I was lucky, I grew up on the rough side of town

so we had the Cabbagetown Boxing Club

that's where we learned to fight

but I mean, for the first couple years, it was just getting my ass beat badly by real boxers who were ahead of me

[DBTrek]

I learned to fight by being raised by a California liberal, but moved to the poor neighborhoods of New Mexico, Kansas, and Florida during my childhood.

So it was kinda like a boxing club ... just with outdoors being the club.
"Hey new kid!"
"Huh?"
BAP!!!!

well I did hang out in the hood, so I got stabbed and shot at too

although being shot at was too surreal, I didn't even have time to be afraid

all I remember thinking was "hey, I just felt the wind of that bullet going past, crazy"

it was over so fast I didn't have time to think of anything else

it was only afterwards that I got the shakes, in the moment it was just adrenaline
