What is the need for that remark? Whatever helps you sleep? Jeez.

BlackBart implied I am an idiot who takes everything written on the internet literary. I replied that he was choosing to view the posts through rose coloured spectacles in order to hold a more comfortable world view. See? Jeez.

Keep It Real wrote:I doubt any bad boys post on internet message boards TBH. Bad boys are moody, angry, poorly educated, lack respect for other people and the law...What's fun about being around a miserable violent ignorant sociopath? Oooh, dreamy! :eh:


They make up the manosphere. They're just lack motivation so they post violent things instead of actually doing them.

Not really, no. I think you're overreacting.

Can someone explain to me why some women (and men) think Darryl is hot.

I just don't get it.

This seemed like the thread for it...

Daryl's not a bad boy. He's a redneck. Totally different question. And the more he's gotten to look like a bad boy biker and less like a redneck, the less attractive he's become.
When the straight and narrow gets a little too straight, roll up the joint.
Or don't. Just follow your arrow wherever it points.

As a Southern man, he's a Country boy. Merle was a redneck.
