Why do we always give this guy the attention he seeks?

:flowerforyou:Mark Simpson came up with Spornosexual and unless you willfully live under a rock you'd know he came up with Metrosexual.. basically a wetdream for people who work in marketing.
Who is Mark Simpson?
WTF is Spornosexual
Metrosexual is one of the stupidest words I've ever heard in my life
How about.... we just all be humans? And individuals? Why this need to constantly put people in boxes with a label on?
Now, to be fair. As scientists we have a long and proud history of liking to stick things in boxes and put labels on them too.... just saying.
Thank you, but I also think these particular labels are pretty stupid.

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.
^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.
Or a lottery winner...
Or born to money...
Or intelligent enough to start your own business without an education...
Or have a rich relative gave those things to you...
Any number of scenarios could be possibility in the acquirement and attainment of those things. I don't have those things. But I have two degrees with a third on the way.
Your logics... they fail you!
'extreme outlier' , 'blessed' - *scratches head*
The use of the term "extreme outlier" in the context you're using it in is.... odd. Someone who's inherited money from their rich family or won the lottery is an outlier in what statistic? They're not an outlier in terms of the amount of money they have. They're not an outlier in terms of the amount of intelligence they have. So in what way are they an extreme outlier?
in how they acquired it?!
are you faqing with me?
I'm sorry... so I am to assume that you are an 'extreme outlier'?
Did you miss that fundamental lesson about assumptions? You know the one that makes you appear like an ...
-_- why would I be an extreme outlier?!! I said I did the work to get the degree's I got?! for realz?

Dude you are like 24, how many status building degrees can you really have??
two - but I'm going to be getting another in about 3 years from now.
Ah... I see. You and I actually have equivalent education.
However, as I pointed out... I don't have a watch or a painting. In their absence, how would you know that I have an equivalent education?0 -

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.

What kind of jagoff spend a hundred and ninety bucks on a tie? A TIE!! You could have used that to buy meals for a homeless shelter, or given that to a single mom struggling to feed her kids.

in how they acquired it?!
are you faqing with me?
If you can't plot it on a graph then the term "extreme outlier" is not the correct term to use. outlier = an individual who falls a long way from the line of best fit, or if the population forms a bell shaped curve, they're in the little flat bits on the edge of the bell, not in the main body of the bell.
How you you plot a graph of how people obtained their money? Unless you want to do a kindergarten style bar chart with 1 sticker for every person in a particular category....
Additionally, more people are rich because they inherited money or started their own business than who got rich through a job that you need a university degree for. Even if you want to plot a kindergarten style bar chart for a nominal data statistic, for a cateogory to be considered an "outlier" (which is kind of meaningless with nominal data, but nevermind that for now..) it needs to be in a category that has only a tiny number of people compared to at least one other category that has huge numbers of people, and the data needs to represent an entire population (you can't cherry-pick people to go in categories) - and the number of people who became rich without needing a university degree would not fit that pattern.0 -

This guy fits 100% into the stereotype of "douche bag." Simple and said, feels the need to exemplify his narcissism in a thread on MFP. He honestly believes he is the best thing to grace the Earth, when a majority of people who encounter him would immediately brand him with the label of "douche bag." This is the kind of guy who enjoys the smell of his own farts. The kind of guy who stares at himself in the mirror and is so stuck on only himself that he actually gets a boner while staring at himself. The kind of guy that is oblivious that HE is the only one that believes he is "awesome," but will always be to blinded by his own narcissism to ever realize that. The kind of guy who thinks he is better than you and has to make sure you know he is better than you by describing all these nice things he has or how much money he wasted on some ****ty artwork that probably looks terrible. There is no reasoning with this type of person, it is best to just let them live their life in their own world where they believe all should bow down and praise their "accomplishments." OR just a troll... but either way... why waste time arguing with a piece of *kitten* human being like this? People like this will never see your side and never change their minds, it is just how they are psychologically wired.0

yeah I bought 3 of 'em that day.
but I put in my time at the homeless shelter as well - I used to have substance abuse issues and obessing over obtaining wealth, getting the degreeez, and looking fit is what helped a great deal to get out of the substance abuse. - I will admit I have a great deal more to mature on - but I do put my time in at the homeless shelter as well.
and for my job you have to look sharp.. I'm 24, and without having the coach messenger bag, and the versace gym bag - clients and leads would just not take you seriously.
-sad story I guess but its just the way it is..?0 -

Oh AND arguing with this scum bag only fuels him... it gives him more chances to tell you how much better he is than you. The funny part is that it is all on the internet... such a fulfilling life spending your "successful life" with hours trolling MFP threads... ha0
