Think about it. Most guys who swap porn, rarely get laid either. Like most guys who've actually seen combat rarely talk about it. There are certain things that insecure people like to cheer for and brag about to compensate for feelings of inadequacy. Grandiosity is the result. Over adaptation is the mechanism.

Are you sure? He said "retreat out of your home" Starboard Tack Mar 2012 #58

Every circumstance is different... No I am not saying that I would shoot anyone. Glassunion Mar 2012 #61

Why not give him the keys? Starboard Tack Mar 2012 #68

Give him the keys, seriously? And what's to make you think he won't whack you anyway? rl6214 Mar 2012 #70

I'm sure the price of a gun would cover the deductible. Starboard Tack Mar 2012 #74

sorry to only pick on the Brits gejohnston Mar 2012 #75

Uh huh. beevul Mar 2012 #72

"I rather thought I was reacting to someone who can't seem to keep a consistent position..." Starboard Tack Mar 2012 #73

Someone who can't seem to keep consistent with their own stated position, to put a finer point on it beevul Mar 2012 #76
