    I couldn't have gotten the status I have now without the multiple degrees I got. I'd venture to say in these times, unless you are an extreme outlier or blessed even more than me you need a degree to be rocking an omega watch and to be dropping a few G's to have a painting contracted out.

    So, just wanted to say, speaking as an artist who does commissions...you don't "contract out" a painting. You commission it. It's kind of funny for someone not to know that if they've done it.

    So... only men can be stereotyped? I'm confused by this use of "bro" because I call my lady friends "bro" all the time because it sounds stupid and hilarious.

    what+is+this+i+dont+even+abandon+thread_03e065_1841122.gif

    ^da faq? The title says "HEY BRO! YOU A METROSEXUAL OR A SPORNOSEXUAL?" This thread is regarding 3 sterotypes of men, the average guy, the guy that cares about his wardrobe and personal appearance, and the guy that cares more about his body and personal appearance. There is now simply an observation that the spornosexual is different from a metrosexual, and there is a significant difference.

    Not belittling - but if this is seriously news to people then there is seriously a huge age gap in understanding, a lack of a college education, or you live in a very rural area - not saying any of that is wrong but I'd venture to say that is accurate.

    If you are to represent sophistication and higher education...

    *looks down at omega watch, and recent contracted painting hanging on wall* ... umm...yeahhh?

    Status symbols aren't proof of higher education.

    Boy, your ignorance is really showing... you might want to quit while you are behind.

    I couldn't have gotten the status I have now without the multiple degrees I got. I'd venture to say in these times, unless you are an extreme outlier or blessed even more than me you need a degree to be rocking an omega watch and to be dropping a few G's to have a painting contracted out.

    I find it hard to believe you have any form of reputable college education, the way you talk(type) is full on ridiculous and uneducated.

    Anyone can say they have fancy stuff on the interwebs.
    You have no way to prove to me you have the things you say you do, but i have no way to prove otherwise, except your douchecanoe spelling, and sentence formation.

    As far as needing a degree to afford a watch and a painting, that's utter BS, i have no degree but i make ample enough money to afford trivial things like that.

    ^see that pic of me? that silk twill Hermes tie was $190 .. smh

    $190 on a tie? - yeah...

    There are many people with more money than taste. Most people with taste, class and money, rarely flaunt it unless they are compensating for something else.

    Oh snap...

    "There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. 'Good pride' represents our dignity and self-respect. 'Bad pride' is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance."

    - John C. Maxwell
    "The truest characters of ignorance are vanity and pride and arrogance."

    - Samuel Butler

    -listen these quotes are a bit humbling because I will admit they are applicable - how does one go about enhancing their substance?

    As I said I am a former addict -was a very very bad person and turned around my life, got the degrees, and just prioritized working and working focusing on buying things basically to stay on the straight and narrow. I will admit I have a ton to work on when it comes to substance - so I'm asking respectfully then since you are giving solid input here - how would one go about developing their substance?

    And sure I won't talk about my clothes anymore- obviously step 1 .. but for real - recommendation?

    Start with humility... bro

    ok - humbly I am saying I do have some area's I need to improve on and I have been working on it... but obviously I need to expedite the amount of work i'm putting into becoming a better individual.

    :drinker:

    Ok... you're redeemed with me.

    no, he means he pays the painting to do work for him on a contractual basis rather than as an employee.

    See? Now - go throw on some comfy sweat pants and a great college t- shirt. When you come back, begin working on the inside. The outside is going to fade in time. Better to invest in your spirit.

    After reading this thread one thing I can be certain of is the OP will not be attracting any Sapiosexual people anytime soon.

    ^I mean.. but yeah basically - I had to drop a huge deposit $$ before she even started on it and I got a written contract with a deadline?

    I mean I feel like my use of the terminology was accurate.

    I wonder what work you can contract a painting to do besides, you know, hang on the wall. Or perhaps lean somewhere. Sit on an easel.

    Well... you had me back... until the whole "you'd be surprised" comment. You went back to bragging. But I understand... small steps. I can forgive anyone for any of their flaws so long as they are willing to work on them.

    Best of luck to you, MrTolerable! Your path to humility is likely to be a painful one.
