narrative June 27th, 2007“Fanboy or Fanboi is a term used to describe someone who is utterly devoted to a single subject or hobby, often to the point where it is considered an obsession. The term originated in comic book circles, to describe someone who was socially insecure and used comics as a shield from interaction, hence the disparaging connotations. Fanboys are often experts on minor details regarding their hobbies, and they take these details extremely seriously.”

Strangely enough; http://nrek.wordpress.com still exists… I could have swore that I took it down, but a little free SEO never hurt; so what the fuck. It’ll stay. I was reminded that it existed via email, subject New comment on your post #12 “The Mystery Method”.
My preconceived notion of what the comment included was pretty accurate. Someone that probably read his book, got some tail & is now fond of his sex life, thanks to the encouraging words of the wise Erik Von Markovik… wooptee god damn deal. But the comment caught my attention when it included fancy words in it like “you’re” and “you’ll”… so fuck it. I’ll post the comment here, and my reply as well; so my current subscribers to fillosophy don’t feel left out of the fun.

The Comment:
i had to respond to this article. erik systematically talked about everything that your ego doesn’t allow you to question, and you chalk it up to personality defects on his part. he’s egotistical, but he’s 100% spot-on about his advice regarding women.
anyone who disagrees should really be able to defend why. he’s had enough beautiful women in his life to prove his point.
and come on, part of why a bar is interesting is because there is the constant presence of females and drinks. chatting with friends in low lighting and loud music can be replicated at home for much cheaper.
if you’re uncomfortable chatting with girls at bars, that’s fine. everybody has a slight amount of discomfort, even the greatest- there’s always the chance you’ll get shot down. but that doesn’t stop everybody.
no need to hate on erik von markovik, i say. true

The Reply:
Rebut: He’s 100% spot on about his advice on one type of women. Here, allow me to quote myself: “If you’re a gentleman, you’ll find a lady; if you’re a zoo-keeper, you’ll find a bitch.”
I can defend why I disagree with him, I’ll keep it brief. His advice doesn’t advocate the attainment of quality relationships amongst the intelligent.
Part 3: Cheaper? Since when did budget come into this? You think I’d be in a VIP club drinking with friends and having a chill time if I was broke? Please. 90% of the time I go somewhere? It’s to have some good conversations over a few beverages. Home is for things like sleeping, showering, and working… Socializing… occasionally, but that’s not being ‘out’, is it.
Almost done: I have no problem being comfortable in a social environment; moreover, I have no problem spending my time wasting it on vapid bar sluts that serve very little purpose in life save for catching a cock from time to time. Oh & this “Fear of rejection” thing is for high school kids.
Hating on Erik? I congratulate the guy, seriously. He’s able to take his pompous style and feed it to you common folk and turn a profit. Seriously, hats off. He just needs to stop talking to intelligent men with respect for women. That’s not his target market, i say. true

Oh & I like the little image my other theme plasters in the comments; I’m adding it to my signature.
