No idea of the source, other than a post on X.

"Arguing online" LOL.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

The manosphere is Rogan. Someone who recognizes the value of self improvement and involvement in your own life, as a man.
Education is extremely important.

That is one of the four that I don't know what they are.

It is good to see that Blacksmithing is still popular.

I dunno, Copper. It sounds vaguely racist.

I read the subtitles of my Belarusian porn. Does that cover the first two?
When you shake someone's deep sense of self-worth, leaving a scar in their ego, they will persistently try to diminish you through petty arguments & obsessive captious criticism of your actions, just to soothe the wound.

No, but it covers wanking.

Apparently clubbing is unpopular with the ladies.

It's not clear whether they mean 'night' or 'seal'.

I read the subtitles of my [foreign language] porn.
1. Why?
2. Manual or automatically generated?
3. Is there a good business case to invest in adding subtitles for porn?

If you combine it with "drinking", "cosplay" and "porn" it scores a whopping 84%. You become what the Brits refer to as a 'fanny magnet'.

At the time of my marriage you were lucky to be arguing at 300 bps, and that was only for a lucky few.

We built a new house in 1982 and had the luxury of a telephone outlet in every bedroom. This made arguing online easier.

We covered this a few months back. To Paraphrase @Aqua-Letifer

“Hey! What are you reading?”
“The Science of Middle Earth, a Comprehensive Understanding of Tolkien and His World”
“Bye”

“Do you speak any other languages?”
“I’m fluent in Beltalowda, and 2 of the 3 Klingon dialects, Sa’Qej and Kumburan, though my Kumburan is just passable and light conversational”
“Bye”

“Do you play any instruments?”
“Alto sackbut, but only the Burgundy type of instruments. The Munich instruments lack subtleties in their tone, and Hainlain was way overrated as a builder”
“Bye”
Me/rry/Christmas
