The Typical StyleForum Member

[APK]

1. male, between 18 and 30
4. extremely sensitive emotionally, evident in the form of name calling on the internet, and trying to gain some illusory sense of status through internet sarcasm
7. a sense of self esteem based upon gaining the approval of a phantom internet message board

These things are true for a number of message boards.

Hell no son. The hot water makes your ball sag and makes it harder to get a good grip. Cold water makes your sack shrivel and easier to control.

1. male, between 18 and 30
2. affluent, or with access to credit cards which allow for extravagant spending over the short term
3. very thin
4. extremely sensitive emotionally, evident in the form of name calling on the internet, and trying to gain some illusory sense of status through internet sarcasm
5. a strong tendency to favor "classic" or timeless styles
6. a taste for understatement and staying below the "radar"
7. a sense of self esteem based upon gaining the approval of a phantom internet message board

In other words, these are young, insecure men who are trying to gain a sense of approval and identity by spending many thousands of dollars on clothes, but are unable to gain an enduring sense of self confidence, hence leading to more spending, more name calling and more shopping in an endless cycle.

It's rather sad, but often amusing to watch in it's relentless futility.

The prospect of getting my sack licked was my motivation. Turning 15 and finishing out puberty is a big deal, good luck to you.

I think Superfuture kids, while more despicable, annoying and overall punchable, probably have more friends and get laid more than SF posters (Judging by the amount of "I sat one seat closer to a girl I like in maths today... I smelled her hair, it was intoxicating. Will post tomorrow after I hide in her closet." posts. )

This is me, except for 2 and 7 and the latter part of 4. (I'm sensitive, but not online.) Edit- Now that I think about it, 6 doesn't apply either since the "classic" styles that I wear kinda stick out when everyone else wears Abercrombie. Also, you're full of **** OP. (See what I did there?)

Styleforum really is just 4chan kids who got bored with WoW and learned what soap was.

I guess you are new to the internets, then.

The entire post is true, but I don't see why this is some great epiphany for you. Have you not seen any other enthusiast message board?

Edit yea this is that guy in jet's sig. Man Im new to the internet, too. got trolled

But were you able to reach it? If so, you're one better than Ron Jeremy.

It's true. There are a couple sufu kids at school, and they get laid regularly. I'm friends with a couple, and they're actually nice guys. One of them actually dresses more like a stereotypical SF psoter.

I just smell girls' hair in math class.
