It's funny. Based on that poll that I viewed, I have no peers here.
To be cunning and vicious is a fairly obvious shortcut to total victory.

We were trying to chase all the youngsters out of here.  They kept getting on our lawns. :mad:

Plus there's the issue of Grallon's restraining order.

Of course, you didn't answer that poll either, so it's possible* you have peers here and they're all lazy bastards.

*100% the case, actually.

I have two pieces of advice, despite never having been to Alaska.

1: Listen to everything Tonitrus says, that guy knows what's up.

2: If it scares you, do it.

Honestly, if I had to encapsulate the essence of manliness into one phrase it would be the risk-taking. Take risks. Don't let any girls tell you to buy japanese government bonds. Do everything. Try everything.

MIM, that's shitty advice.  And being a man is certainly NOT about taking risks.

Many risks are, lets face it, stupid.  Petting it all on black is a stupid risk.  Trying cocaine is a stupid risk.  Many extreme sports are stupid risks.  Bonds can be an excellent investment.

The trick, of course is to only take the right risks.  This sounds like a good one (mind you this is from the guy who liked the Yukon so much he moved there for 4 years).

Maybe. But I doubt many people my age would find much comfort here.

We're still waiting on some of the "older, more experienced" aged guys around here to grow up a little.  :glare:

I promise to only take risks I have a... 40% chance of surviving, minimum.

No shit.  Tonitrus bought an FJ Cruiser, for fuck's sake.

Trying toot is not a stupid risk.  It's not physically addictive.  It doesn't immediately start to kill your brain cells.

Lets keep it that way. And don't mess with our walkers either.

Comfort or comfort?

comfort.

Oh OK. Well then maybe not. BUT a young person on Languish has access to a first class set of brains just waiting to hand out advice.
