@@MariahIsSkinnyFuckBlueLives You have NO idea how much I am suffering trying not to introduce this guy to Femboy Hooters. It's a bad idea, but so, so tempting...
I think he knows, Slime is correct about the manipulation. People should just stop using Twitter - being banned is the best thing that ever happened to me.
I'm fascinated by Nick Adam's idea that it's "Alpha" the be a lonely single man sitting in a Hooter's staring at women who are only speaking to you because they've been paid to do so. But it's "Beta" to be in a stable relationship with a significant other that chooses to spend time with you permanently. The levels of cope are off the scale with that guy. Great video btw.
This narrow view of manliness is so easily contradicted. Like, it's manly to be able to endure pain and get laid, but what if you like being dominated by a woman and getting hurt by her?
Yeah, considering the whole point of an alpha is being the most sexually desirable male, the fact that the ones he considers beta have a mate while he has none is just beautiful irony! In actuality, he is below beta in the pack. He is the sad scavenger prowling at the periphery of the pack, wishing he could be a part of it. If real men are a pack of wolves, he’s a coyote.
He thinks it's been long enough since early 2000s Internet satire that nobody will notice he's just poorly recycling bits from the likes of Maddox and Dick Masterson, and he might be right
@@lethargicwizard I think Dick Coughlan pointed out that a lot of what he's saying is probably taking the piss. I mean, that Chili's savings line and 36 holes of golf... that's a whole MAN TROUGH full of piss I tell you hwut.
Look, at least he is honest about wanting to put men in his mouth. If only he had the self reflection to realize it, maybe he would be leading a happier less toxic life.
The problem is on the one hand I want to boycott M&Ms because they are going woke... But on the other hand I want to support them because the do use child slave labor in production As an alpha male, so it's hard for me to choose...
If being a beta means I have to endure less golf and spend time with my partner, I mean... Couldn't I just go full delta and we play mini-golf/eat Little Caesars?
Perhaps I shoulda add beta to my profiles instead of saying “I love going for walks among the wealth of state parks stolen from the first peoples and I cry for their suffering and contemplate why I feel joy and love amongst the nature even though I am walking a path carved by the heartless” its just too wordy honestly.
At one point, Nick Adams said that going to Hooter's was a gender-affriming experience, so I brought my trans-masc friends to Hooters and we had a good gender-affirming time.
@The Impulsive Vulcan exactly. Best guess is they went to a table, acted normal to the waitress, ate the food, threw it up in the bathroom cause it's shit, and then left
My father refuses to shop at Target, specifically because going in there makes him feel emasculated. His reason for feeling that way was it was too colorful in the store, apperently. The man is 66, he worked in a garage as a mechanic, then fixing appliances while working on an engineering degree, then automaton w Johnson Controls where they sent him around the world for troubleshooting, matinace, and occasional installation of air control systems in large buildings. This man has lived in machine greese most of his life, but the idea of shopping at a Target makes him feel unmanly The propaganda Americans have been fed about gender is so fucking incidious I cannot even
I honestly feel like there’s a certain percent of this kind of issue that’s not actually man-angst as much as it is anticonsumerism angst that’s being deliberately confused for man-angst. Like, this is anticapitalist sentiment that’s being misdirected into a gender issue, the way the right tends to turn anticapitalism into antisemitism.
So insidious that you can't even spell it. Trans people are a tiny minority who have a kind of deformity that is more likely rooted in neurobiology than in "ideology". They have existed since the beginning oif time and have been kicked around since the beginning of time, The real movement on the Left is simply recognition that it is time to stop kicking them around. The real movement on the Right is an ugly campaign of hysteria, hate and fear, in order to rile up their base and score political points. The excessive rhetoric from a subset of the Left does not really represent the Left. There is no serious danger that the public will cease to understand that the vast majority of people fall into binary sex categories. But the public needs to become aware that a small percent of people do not fall into neat categories, and may be biologically intersex, much less in their secondary characteristics.
Notice how the American right-wing appears to think low-income blue collar manual labour jobs that require no university degree are the only jobs that matter!
If someone gets to the point where owning the libs is a central condition of sense of success, then extremity to the point of caricature becomes a sincere, straightforward personal goal. What he wants to achieve calls for precisely the same actions as that over-the-top performance art would.
Just a loser who can't accept he's not a loser unless he gets accolades from other losers who can't accept that they are losers. First step in overcoming being a loser is recognizing the problem.
The video of him stomping on the little bag of M&Ms was really weird. Like, I seriously got confused about his authenticity and whether or not he’s playing some long game where he’s actually mocking the right the entire time.
I'm basically convinced he's not for real, but whether or not he's trying to be a parody of the recent trend of Crowder-likes or if he's legitimately trying to grift right-wingers out of their money... somehow, I can't tell. Also no yeah he could totally be for real because guys like this exist and are just unhinged.
My brother worked at a Hooters as a cook. The bartender kept a baseball bat under the bar. It was just in case a customer got abusive with the waitress.
Bartender? More like pretender. From my extensive knowledge of USA culture from Hollywood movies I know a real bartender keeps a shotgun under the bar.
I used to eat at Hooters, and every time I felt like a fight was going to break out between drunk patrons getting grabby with the waitresses. So I kinda get it.
I love the threat of become MORE 'woman'/feminine. It's exactly how I talk about my gender. Maybe I'll go more masculine, maybe I'll go a secret third direction. I am unhinged.
I went to Hooters once, when I was about 13, I think. The food was. Eh. I remember feeling very weird/uncomfortable, bc there was something deeply off about it. Also like, Hooters is built on the idea of being strip clubs for people who think sex workers are evil.
I ate at Hooters once, in college (it was the only thing convenient that happened to be open at that specific time, on that specific day---honestly, my only other option would have been McDonald's) and I remember the food being aggressively mediocre. The problem with making some of these statements about Hooters is that there's a voluntary component to all of it, right? If you're an attractive and relatively well-built female who has tits and is simultaneously capable of occasionally writing stuff down, then you can work at Hooters and make a little bank. Many so situated females choose to do this; I do not claim that ALL of them feel as though they have another option for whatever amount of money they think they will make, and perhaps, no other place has a job to offer (a few of) them at all. Still, given that NOT working at Hooters always exists as an alternative to working at Hooters, and those waitresses who work at Hooters engage in a multi-step process to do so, and SHOULD have some idea of what working at Hooters entails, it becomes difficult to put all of the blame on guys who are looking for Mike's Titty Bar Lite. Hooters is not my preference, to be clear, and I'd be the first to admit that many guys who go there are pervs who behave inappropriately. Without those women who are so situated to work at Hooters in the first place, Hooters ceases to exist as a concept and simply becomes an extremely mediocre American-style restaurant, becomes something other than a restaurant or becomes some other style restaurant entirely. It also occurs to me that someone can't hold the position that sex work is valid work (which I do hold...as long as it's not illegal, I think people can do whatever they wish to try to make money), but then not think that people should be permitted to do Hooters work when Hooters work is simply Sex Work Lite.
@@brandonjames412 my main issue is these people always talking about hooters also think that sex work should be heavily criminalized, they also think teaching kids about gay or trans people is "sexual" but its fine to take them to hooters
@@Cybercerialdestroyer I agree with that. At the same time, I don't know think that small children need to learn about the different combinations of genital interactions, at all. It's pretty sad that both sides seem to enjoy using kids as political pawns and to troll the opposite side.

I went to the bachelor party of a friend of a friend. I am a cis woman and every other person there was a cis man. The bachelor literally giggled like a child and said "boobies hehe" while our server walked by. Granted, he was a bit inebriated so I don't think he realized. Me and the server made eye contact that felt profound and I tipped her 50%. I have never been so uncomfortable in my life and I am an uncomfortable person. Fried pickles were good tho. I will never return to any Hooters.
no one performs masculinity as passionately and aggressively as the male right, and they still insist its just natural and not a choice they consciously make every morning
Yes! I've pointed this out to people who brag about how they intentionally disregard people's preferred pronouns. It never sinks in. Their own gender identities are so fragile that they feel profoundly threatened by other people's.
Right??!? noticed that too, it feels like when you see a person you know is irresponsible and blames all thier problems on everyone/everything else post things like 'honest people aren't liked, be honest " or "when they don't accept you, then you know who's being real" or some other bs like that.
@@mrosskne honest people are liked; ii and my friends are honest people who like each other. and the second statement was made by a raging alcoholic with drunk driving issues who didn't want to hear that it was their fault they crashed their car.
to be fair there's nothing directly wrong with that, it's just the way that the horny is expressed. You're actually just allowed to be an extremely horny person if you're not a dick about it.
Literally people who are eternally insecure and need the approval of other men. However, they never receive it because they are incapable of making close friendships with other men since it's all a big egotistical game to them. It's the reason incels exist: "I can't be the problem if the reason I'm not fucking a woman is that the woman controls the sex!! And, as such, I never have to improve or try to be a better person!"
It really makes it hard for the men among us who are horny and don't consider that horniness part of their masculine identity as much as it is just....I'm a horny person.
I think I just now realized that my mother's habit of saying men cry in their cars in response to men don't cry was her way of making space for my father to have emotions. And her way of saying that my brother will also cry when he's an adult, but she couched it in men hiding it-- that it ONLY happens when a man is alone in his car; that's the place he's going to feel safe and vulnerable. Not with a human being, isolated in a metal pod. Facinating.

@@EggEnjoyer this is a very weird and absolutist take on sad vs mad, especially considering OP made no value judgements on which one is "better". anger can absolutely be more productive than sadness, and there are definitely cases where getting pissed off is the better option, but the reverse is also true; there are many things that *should* make a person sad, where getting mad would be pointless and even harmful or dangerous (ie. a pet dying of old age, breaking up with a partner, putting effort into a creative project that doesn't pan out, etc.) OP's coworker believes that men should only get mad, never sad, and theres simply no way to spin that as healthy

1. Love the eyes. The effect of the lighting on your lipstick is trippy. 2. I have been to a Hooters once: a friend took me just because I'd never been. Their wings are mediocre rather than terrible, which isn't saying much. The service was great, but she really wasn't flirty to me, just good service. The nylons under the shorts plus the makeup/hair styling felt anachronistic. The experience was not in any way sexy and I will admit to being a fan of boobs, usually. 3. Growing up, we referred to m&m's as male and female depending on whether or not they had nuts.
The funny thing is I have never heard any leftists of any gender talk about banning Hooters, just that we need more inclusive versions & the workers should be respected and treated fairly 😭
@@mrosskne Idk what the person was implying, but maybe it was about potentially having male and non-binary workers or maybe that the outfits shouldnt be overly sexualised?

I may just be a woman. But I did martial arts for over five years. I can't hurt anyone. I never entered any tournaments. And my favorite part of sparring was that you could fight with someone you weren't angry with, and no one got hurt. And we had fun. I learned how to kick, I learned how to punch, and I hope I never have to actually kick or punch someone, cause it's still hard for me to imagine actually trying to hurt someone.
what kind of martial arts did you take? it sounds like you went to one of those taikwando dojos we call mcdojos because theyre just big chains that rip you off. if you werent actually hitting hard enough to hurt someone, you didn't learn anything useful and wasted your time and money.
@Phat Kid It was definitely owned by one guy. Master Wong Po, probably spelt that wrong, if my memory serves me. It was many years ago. It was tai kwon do, so you're right about that. But it wasn't a massive chain. We had many students who competed in tournaments. That just wasn't me. I don't have a competitive bone in my body. I would go to class right after school do my homework during the white belt class, and then take the evening class. I did that almost every day during middle school and highschool. And I never made it past red belt, cause I can't jump lol. So it definitely wasn't a black belt factory. But I kept going because I enjoyed it. Truth is, it was a great dojo, and I was passionate but mediocre, and also not cut out for competition.
@@damien678 nothing wrong with that. That's the beauty of martial arts. You can get many things out of it. If you wanna fight, I say go for it! We had a lot of awesome people at our dojang who entered tournaments. And I see nothing wrong with consensual fighting sports, even the more extreme versions. That's just not what I was seeking, and the practice of martial arts has space for both.
It is interesting how patriarchy has always defined itself as being anti-feminine, but now it's shifting to "anti-woke" instead. It speaks volumes about the place (or lack thereof) of empathy in its philosophy.
What is with his obsession over Fortnite? Like.... it's a video game that is largely played by kids but also by people of all ages, creeds, and colors......
"REAL ALPHA MALES SHOULDN'T PLAY FORNITE!!!1! *STOP PLAYING FORNITE!!!111!11!"* All the insecure toxic males who were playing Fortnite suddenly stop because they're told to by someone who claims to be a fellow "Alpha Male," and thus Fortnite becomes a much more enjoyable space to play in all round. The trolls deny themselves their enjoyment and get to complain some more about how their miserable lives are somehow more fulfilling, while normal well-adjusted people get to enjoy Fortnite more without having to listen to them. Sounds like a win-win!
I think one of the most exhausting things about hyper masculinity is how EVERYTHING is a competition. I always remember this work party as a clear example. There was an open bar and I happened to show up late because I actually worked that day, unlike most the people there. I ordered a whiskey which got noticed by the other guys at the bar who had all ordered beers. Then it was all talk about how I was "putting them to shame" and pretty soon they were all ordering whiskey and shots were going around. A bunch of them ended up getting sick and making asses of themselves but they couldn't let me show them up. I hadn't even noticed what any of them had ordered and I just wanted a damn whiskey because it was an open bar. I had like one more tumbler after the first, and was sober enough to drive home at the end of the night, unlike the rest of them. I guess self control and being responsible aren't masculine either...
@@mrosskne Healthy competition where all parties have agreed to it and they are working towards a worthy goal can be good but competition merely for competition's sake or for the shaming of others is not. The competition prevalent in toxic masculinity is almost exclusively for the domination of others or to bolster an obviously fragile ego. Strength that constantly feels afraid of undermining and or needs repetitive displays is no strength at all.
@Rimeau if there is no indecent exposure I dont see what the issue is? If you are so offended by the sight o the human body that some bare flesh is enough to rile ye may I suggest you never visit a beach. Also, bedroom gear? Lmao.

So pathetic how they think leching on waitresses at a cheap wing joint like some kind of stunted adolescent is manly. At least be enough of an adult to drop tons of cash tipping the ladies at your local strip bar, sheesh.
I've been saying for a long time that a man who refuses to do things like vacuum clean a floor or refuses to learn to do it (given that he'd be both physically and mentally and psychologically capable of doing/learning it) is not a real man. Not because he's a woman. But because he's a child aka not an adult aka definitely not a man.
The way that human trafficker guy pronounces “water” makes me irrationally angry. Or maybe rationally angry, since everything he does is contemptible by default.
My wife and were just joking the other day that we should open a restaurant and call it Boobs, or maybe Knockers and decorate the walls with antique door knockers. Of course there would be good food and beer, unlike crappy chains like Hooters
A restaurant chain called "Tits and Boobies" that is filled with bird decorations, and bird trivia, and bird guessing games, sounds like it could be a great success... if it has decent food.

Can't get over how his "there is NOTHING better than Hooters" sounds like a threat. "This is it, this is all there is, nothing is better, this is the best you can possibly get and you should never hope for more."
My parents, for some ungodly reason, once took me and my siblings to a Hooters-style restaurant (it was called Wolfies or something I think) when I, the oldest, was only like 14. I remember nothing about that place except one waitress who laughed at a joke I made, and the incredible awkwardness of everyone else in the restaurant. Introducing kids to that environment sort of stripped away the illusion that it was anything but a place for single men to ogle scantily clad women being paid minimum wage.
Bro my dad did the same thing and I remember being like 10-11, even as a kid I knew that something was wrong with the environment. Like this shouldn’t be something I should enjoy or even be around. I think it messed me up ever since.
that first nick adams tweet is legitimately one of the funniest things i’ve seen in so long. just cannot get over how he thinks paying a corporation to eat shitty food and bother disinterested women waiters is the greatest thing ever, but he’s 100% right that it’s the essence of modern american masculinity
Part of the point is, he doesn't actually think that, he's just built a brand around it to con other men into thinking that, so he can presumably take their money. It's an essential tool of fascism; a willingness to say or do anything, without shame, based entirely on the idea that it will garner the greatest reaction possible, and thus polarize people. That polarization keeps people apart, naturally, and to those who fall under the sway of the 'strong man' it proves that the strong men are on to something. If they weren't, why would the declared enemies get so upset?! About the things they say/do?! If you not wiping your ass makes not men unhappy, then clearly it is imperative that you never wipe your ass, to prove you are not not men.
@Noctem it doesn't matter either way. You can see the effect this has on people dumb enough to take it at face value and agree with these guys. Fascism is a big silly joke, and it's very funny. Like how south park's silly funny fascism jokes normalized fascism for a whole new generation of silly funny reactionaries to emulate. Hilarious!
Personally witnessed my own father buy a 2 for 20 deal at Chili's once. I can't believe this is how I have to find out he was a woman all along. I think I have to go be a creep at Hooter's now to reclaim my family's honor.
I never realized that having a preference of paying less for mediocre food, as opposed to paying more for mediocre food, isn't masculine. I guess you learn something new every day.
The fact he described the beverage and food by temperature always gets me about these establishments. It’s not even that good of stuff, it’s just “hot” food and a “cold” beer because the food is so shitty that you need to mask it with an over corrected temperature.
I am still unconvinced that Nick Adams is not a troll account. I have been following him for MONTHS and the stuff he says ... stuff like MULTIPLE TIMES talking about how he loves when his butcher "handles my meat" I just cannot believe he is being serious and expects us to believe he legitimately believes what he says.
Yeah this feels like a total troll account. Like it seems beyond merely going for likes, there’s too much “unintended humour” in the tweets, so consistently.
"Confusing and uncomfortable for everyone EXCEPT wait staff, likely involving sexy owl costumes" is actually kind of a fun idea, considering there are already some restaurants where the gimmick is the staff is rude to you.
If it turns out that isn't a troll account, and the guy really is that goofy, I'll still refuse to believe he's legit and Am going to believe he is a troll human, as in, his parents decided to troll the world by forcing his existence upon our timeline.

the most upsetting (and only) story I have about my experience with a Hooters restaurant is when I was at a megamall with my mom when I was about 12 years old, and we wanted to get lunch some place. Neither of us had ever heard of Hooters before (her being a 40 year old woman and me being a frickin 12 year old) and she picked it out of a directory. As we got closer, I remember starting to feel uneasy, and as I saw the sign, I told her that I didn't think we should go in there. Just a weird gut feeling that to this day I couldn't explain. Maybe I could just pick up on the aura of sadness pouring out of the doors. An aura my mom I guess didn't pick up on because she was like NAHHH it'll be fine! And dragged my happy ass inside. By the time we were seated I think she realized her mistake but she was too embarrassed to leave, so we had one extremely uncomfortable mother-son lunch at a Hooters, the whole time during which I refused eye contact with a single person, including my mother. Deeply troubling childhood experience. Do not bring your children to Hooters.

I'm more curious what kind of workplace you had where you could show cartoon characters to your boss. Speaking of, can you tell me more about this Laplander character and the story he's part of?
That's just beautiful! He was so incapable of working through the cognitive dissonance created by the situation that he was reduced to rage, and failed attempts at showing dominance combined with avoidance. Each failure to fire you likely increased his cognitive dissonance and increased his feelings of impotence. Seeing you likely did as well. That had to be incredibly satisfying!

I’ve always hated the concept of hooters, I don’t want women to like me because their paid to, I want women to like me for who I am, despite my issues with my parents destroying any healthy psychology I could have as an adult.
you arent... wrong... but most men don't delude themselves into thinking the women like them... the men just like looking at big boobs in skimpy outfits. not saying its the best intentions, but its really not all that hard to understand or really that messed up. the whole exploitation of labor thing aside... the concept itself is basic. men like boobs. go figure.
I really resonate with that. I want people to like me for who I am, even though I don't like me much, and emotional closeness with others scares the crap out of me. It means they can rip my heart out, metaphorically. (Or maybe literally. If I really tick them off.) Doing more therapy.👍
My friends dragged me into a hooters like 20 years ago. There were some weird customers in there, but the waitresses didn't act like they liked us, they just acted like normal waitresses. I had to go to a Titled Kilt for work lunch once, that place is worse.
Ik this video is a week old and you probably won't see this, but I just wanted to say thank you. I realized I was trans because of your content. A few years ago (idk what video exactly) you ended it by saying something to the effect of "I'm 30-something and am realizing I might not be the gender I was assigned at birth and at this point, I worry it's too late to do something about it" and me a 24-25 year old sitting in my bedroom who had been having Gender Feelings for a couple years already went "Oh my god, I'm going to be thirty something and realize that it's too late to do something about it." I started transitioning (ftm) in the summer of 2020 and I am so much happier now. I just wanted to say thank you for giving me the shock I needed, even if you didn't do it specifically for me.
@@Full_Otto_Bismarck I went to one once, just for the experience, and I can't fully explain the feeling that I got while being there. Sad and empty is probably the best I can do, and there are people who go to these places regularly 😬
@@BarnacleBoy42069 Exactly, and the kind of masculine posturing that is shown in this video meant I caught hell for feeling that way. I'm as much a hetero pervert as any of them were but the whole dynamic of that activity is just so sad like you said.
I’ve worked at a hooters as a cook before. It was the worst and trashiest job I’ve ever had. The cooks fought with each other all the time. One of them was a complete asshole to me for no reason and he was usually the one starting fights with everyone else. Cooks and the girls would randomly leave in the middle of their shift. One time after the one cook I mentioned earlier was barging in front of the other cook and redoing everything he was doing and he got pissed off and threatened to fight him outside. This was the weekend fyi, right before lunch rush, and he left. And the manager didn’t care.
“Nothing is better than Hooters” Pizza, daisies, smelling markers, any animal, a really good dream, a warm bath, picking a booger (a dry one), pizza, graham crackers, a nice sandwich, feeling good when you make a really good joke and someone laughs (in a nice way, not a mean way)…
I’ll never forget being a little girl and asking my dad to take me to hooters because he told me they serve chicken wings, my all time favorite food. And him telling me it’s not good being embarrassed his daughter wants to go to hooters so bad
It’s ok to enjoy hooters chicken wings. My sisters & I loved the food there as kids. I think the guy being clowned on in this video is just joking. It’s ok to dislike Hooters but let’s not pretend it’s super deep 😂
As a heterosexual American male, I have only been to Hooters once (and it took me until I was in my early 30s). Two guys from work suggested to go there for an after work meetup. I've never been one to ogle women, or talk about how "hot" people are, even as a horny young teenager. I always thought that behavior was, as the kids say, "cringe." The entire time was super uncomfortable. You know how you're always told to just ignore people if there is something awkward, like, let's say, wearing more revealing clothing or have an atypically large chest or something? Well, Hooters felt like it was just a constant "my eyes are up here" test. It's like, if I want to see titillation, I'll just stick to my own self pleasure, thank you. Maybe I don't have as much testosterone or something as the average male that acts like an old timey Looney Tune with eyes popping out while imitating a wolf, but I don't see how being sexually frustrated (at best) in public is supposed to be entertaining. And the food is definitely nothing to write home about. And I'm happily married with two children and I very much enjoy sex, but a significant amount of behavior at these sorts of places just seems deplorable (and sounds like it from stories from servers).
I live 10 minute walk from kingcross where there are about 10 strip clubs and 30 brothels, for 5 years. A mate dragged me to a strip club in Brisbane, I spent the time drinking hanging out with the bouncer who let me (I'm very short). Then the bouncer said hey dude come here and see this. Two of the strippers, who were a couple were making out back stage. They stopped for a bit saw me waived and went back to making out, they were high AF. I got the best show for free.
I remember hearing a guy say once (might have been a video, a tweet, something someone said to me in person, I don't know) "strip clubs aren't my thing because getting an awkward half-boner with my friends isn't my idea of a good time" and I think about it a lot
That's what I never understood about my coworkers who would watch porn on their mobile phones during our cigarette breaks. What, exactly, is the appeal of making oneself sexually frustrated in a semi-public setting?
Fun fact: I went to school with a woman who managed a Hooters. While it’s not overtly stated, the atmosphere and money does in fact lead to a strain of sex work that isn’t REQUIRED……..but is definitely (hint hint) required.
I know this is about Nick Adams but that clip of JBP talking about the capacity of violence making you a dangerous man, while looking like a stiff breeze would knock him over is hilarious.
Name one masculine trait Jordan (my mum was wasn't sure of my gender so she gave me a name that is both) Peterson has shown. I have known old greek women who shaved their chins more frequently than he does his face. And that voice isn't associated with humans who have testicles.
I'm just extremely confused why he didn't sound like a muppet that day, I've never heard a clip of him talking sound so...normal (the sound of his voice, not the content of what he was saying)
What irks me about the violence thing is that violence is always a last resort and they are messing up the concept of martial arts and perverting it. Practicing martial arts has always been with peace as the forefront and war was the last resort, anything else is absolutely idiocy.
I mean it seems like acting like an aggressive idiot works, so long as you're pandering to the right. It worked for Trump and it's working for Musk and it seems to be working for this guy. Most likely he'll be on Fox and then he'll get a book deal or some position of power or general access to wealth.
Not to invalidate any points made about the alpha male mentality, but if you actually read through the guy's tweets there's no way this isn't a parody account by a troll. He even has a tweet saying "anyone who feels the need to tell you that he's an alpha male, is not an alpha male" which is obviously ironic. He also makes a lot of homoerotic slips like how he loves the way his butcher 'handles his meat' and that bit about a foursome. He's pulling a Stephen Colbert.
Agree he's a troll, disagree it's a parody. I think he's pulling exactly the thing that Mildred describes here - intentionally saying things so tempting to tweet a response to that it drives engagement. But Colbert had a point to make through his parody, this guy is just in it for the money.
I’ve never experienced a female stripper but I’ve been to a few bachelorette parties and OF is honestly 1000x less weird and awkward than every male stripper experience I’ve ever had.
Gay guys, bisexual guys and maybe even some women might disagree with this, but I think that's because there's not a damn thing sexy about a single one of us. Our attempts to be sexy are laughable, at best, and digestively unsettling, at worst.
You shouldn't talk about 1980's time capsules like that. Video rental places often had wood paneling and a strange checkerboard style to the floor tile. It would actually be kind of neat to see one again. Also, Gadzooks was around in the 80's and 90's; I think Gadzooks would actually do pretty well today if they could bring their prices down a little bit.
Hooters is a restaurant for old married men to fantasize about younger women. Single people realize there are bars across America where women not only dress just as revealing but might actually want to get interact and even hook up.
My grandpa took me to Hooters and it was one of the last times I got to spend time with him before he was hospitalized with brain cancer and died. So that’s what I associate with the place now.
I was just listening with my phone in my pocket, and I swear, I assumed you were doing some parody bit whenever you read a Tweet. It didn't even occur to me to check until like, 12 minutes in.

I'm fascinated by Nick Adam's idea that it's "Alpha" the be a lonely single man sitting in a Hooter's staring at women who are only speaking to you because they've been paid to do so. But it's "Beta" to be in a stable relationship with a significant other that chooses to spend time with you permanently.
The levels of cope are off the scale with that guy.
Great video btw.
This narrow view of manliness is so easily contradicted. Like, it's manly to be able to endure pain and get laid, but what if you like being dominated by a woman and getting hurt by her?
Yeah, considering the whole point of an alpha is being the most sexually desirable male, the fact that the ones he considers beta have a mate while he has none is just beautiful irony! In actuality, he is below beta in the pack. He is the sad scavenger prowling at the periphery of the pack, wishing he could be a part of it. If real men are a pack of wolves, he’s a coyote.

Buying a Twix instead of M&Ms because of their politics is like buying an iPad because you're boycotting iPhones.

The propaganda Americans have been fed about gender is so fucking incidious I cannot even
I honestly feel like there’s a certain percent of this kind of issue that’s not actually man-angst as much as it is anticonsumerism angst that’s being deliberately confused for man-angst. Like, this is anticapitalist sentiment that’s being misdirected into a gender issue, the way the right tends to turn anticapitalism into antisemitism.
So insidious that you can't even spell it. Trans people are a tiny minority who have a kind of deformity that is more likely rooted in neurobiology than in "ideology". They have existed since the beginning oif time and have been kicked around since the beginning of time, The real movement on the Left is simply recognition that it is time to stop kicking them around. The real movement on the Right is an ugly campaign of hysteria, hate and fear, in order to rile up their base and score political points. The excessive rhetoric from a subset of the Left does not really represent the Left. There is no serious danger that the public will cease to understand that the vast majority of people fall into binary sex categories. But the public needs to become aware that a small percent of people do not fall into neat categories, and may be biologically intersex, much less in their secondary characteristics.

I went to Hooters once, when I was about 13, I think. The food was. Eh. I remember feeling very weird/uncomfortable, bc there was something deeply off about it. Also like, Hooters is built on the idea of being strip clubs for people who think sex workers are evil.
I ate at Hooters once, in college (it was the only thing convenient that happened to be open at that specific time, on that specific day---honestly, my only other option would have been McDonald's) and I remember the food being aggressively mediocre.
The problem with making some of these statements about Hooters is that there's a voluntary component to all of it, right?
If you're an attractive and relatively well-built female who has tits and is simultaneously capable of occasionally writing stuff down, then you can work at Hooters and make a little bank. Many so situated females choose to do this; I do not claim that ALL of them feel as though they have another option for whatever amount of money they think they will make, and perhaps, no other place has a job to offer (a few of) them at all.
Still, given that NOT working at Hooters always exists as an alternative to working at Hooters, and those waitresses who work at Hooters engage in a multi-step process to do so, and SHOULD have some idea of what working at Hooters entails, it becomes difficult to put all of the blame on guys who are looking for Mike's Titty Bar Lite. Hooters is not my preference, to be clear, and I'd be the first to admit that many guys who go there are pervs who behave inappropriately.
Without those women who are so situated to work at Hooters in the first place, Hooters ceases to exist as a concept and simply becomes an extremely mediocre American-style restaurant, becomes something other than a restaurant or becomes some other style restaurant entirely.
It also occurs to me that someone can't hold the position that sex work is valid work (which I do hold...as long as it's not illegal, I think people can do whatever they wish to try to make money), but then not think that people should be permitted to do Hooters work when Hooters work is simply Sex Work Lite.

I may just be a woman. But I did martial arts for over five years. I can't hurt anyone. I never entered any tournaments. And my favorite part of sparring was that you could fight with someone you weren't angry with, and no one got hurt. And we had fun. I learned how to kick, I learned how to punch, and I hope I never have to actually kick or punch someone, cause it's still hard for me to imagine actually trying to hurt someone.
what kind of martial arts did you take? it sounds like you went to one of those taikwando dojos we call mcdojos because theyre just big chains that rip you off. if you werent actually hitting hard enough to hurt someone, you didn't learn anything useful and wasted your time and money.
@Phat Kid It was definitely owned by one guy. Master Wong Po, probably spelt that wrong, if my memory serves me. It was many years ago. It was tai kwon do, so you're right about that. But it wasn't a massive chain. We had many students who competed in tournaments. That just wasn't me. I don't have a competitive bone in my body. I would go to class right after school do my homework during the white belt class, and then take the evening class. I did that almost every day during middle school and highschool. And I never made it past red belt, cause I can't jump lol. So it definitely wasn't a black belt factory. But I kept going because I enjoyed it. Truth is, it was a great dojo, and I was passionate but mediocre, and also not cut out for competition.
I'm AFAB but wanna do cage fighting just so I can get hurt (and hurt others that wanna get hurt)
But I know I'm... A rarer breed than others
@@damien678 nothing wrong with that. That's the beauty of martial arts. You can get many things out of it. If you wanna fight, I say go for it! We had a lot of awesome people at our dojang who entered tournaments. And I see nothing wrong with consensual fighting sports, even the more extreme versions. That's just not what I was seeking, and the practice of martial arts has space for both.
@@damien678 You're still looking to participate in a controlled atmosphere, which is completely rational.

All the insecure toxic males who were playing Fortnite suddenly stop because they're told to by someone who claims to be a fellow "Alpha Male," and thus Fortnite becomes a much more enjoyable space to play in all round.
The trolls deny themselves their enjoyment and get to complain some more about how their miserable lives are somehow more fulfilling, while normal well-adjusted people get to enjoy Fortnite more without having to listen to them. Sounds like a win-win!
🤣 omfg too good!
I think one of the most exhausting things about hyper masculinity is how EVERYTHING is a competition. I always remember this work party as a clear example. There was an open bar and I happened to show up late because I actually worked that day, unlike most the people there. I ordered a whiskey which got noticed by the other guys at the bar who had all ordered beers. Then it was all talk about how I was "putting them to shame" and pretty soon they were all ordering whiskey and shots were going around. A bunch of them ended up getting sick and making asses of themselves but they couldn't let me show them up. I hadn't even noticed what any of them had ordered and I just wanted a damn whiskey because it was an open bar. I had like one more tumbler after the first, and was sober enough to drive home at the end of the night, unlike the rest of them. I guess self control and being responsible aren't masculine either...
Competition is good.
@@mrosskne Healthy competition where all parties have agreed to it and they are working towards a worthy goal can be good but competition merely for competition's sake or for the shaming of others is not. The competition prevalent in toxic masculinity is almost exclusively for the domination of others or to bolster an obviously fragile ego. Strength that constantly feels afraid of undermining and or needs repetitive displays is no strength at all.

My parents, for some ungodly reason, once took me and my siblings to a Hooters-style restaurant (it was called Wolfies or something I think) when I, the oldest, was only like 14. I remember nothing about that place except one waitress who laughed at a joke I made, and the incredible awkwardness of everyone else in the restaurant. Introducing kids to that environment sort of stripped away the illusion that it was anything but a place for single men to ogle scantily clad women being paid minimum wage.
Bro my dad did the same thing and I remember being like 10-11, even as a kid I knew that something was wrong with the environment. Like this shouldn’t be something I should enjoy or even be around. I think it messed me up ever since.
Uh, no. Remove "single" and then yeah.
Lotta married dudes embarrassing themselves in there.
that first nick adams tweet is legitimately one of the funniest things i’ve seen in so long. just cannot get over how he thinks paying a corporation to eat shitty food and bother disinterested women waiters is the greatest thing ever, but he’s 100% right that it’s the essence of modern american masculinity
Nick Adams is without fail the funniest person on the internet and I aspire to commit to a bit half as hard as he does
Part of the point is, he doesn't actually think that, he's just built a brand around it to con other men into thinking that, so he can presumably take their money. It's an essential tool of fascism; a willingness to say or do anything, without shame, based entirely on the idea that it will garner the greatest reaction possible, and thus polarize people. That polarization keeps people apart, naturally, and to those who fall under the sway of the 'strong man' it proves that the strong men are on to something. If they weren't, why would the declared enemies get so upset?! About the things they say/do?! If you not wiping your ass makes not men unhappy, then clearly it is imperative that you never wipe your ass, to prove you are not not men.

Yeah, but Japan has "tradition", so it is acceptable and nobody bats an eye, because "Tradition".
the most upsetting (and only) story I have about my experience with a Hooters restaurant is when I was at a megamall with my mom when I was about 12 years old, and we wanted to get lunch some place. Neither of us had ever heard of Hooters before (her being a 40 year old woman and me being a frickin 12 year old) and she picked it out of a directory. As we got closer, I remember starting to feel uneasy, and as I saw the sign, I told her that I didn't think we should go in there. Just a weird gut feeling that to this day I couldn't explain. Maybe I could just pick up on the aura of sadness pouring out of the doors. An aura my mom I guess didn't pick up on because she was like NAHHH it'll be fine! And dragged my happy ass inside. By the time we were seated I think she realized her mistake but she was too embarrassed to leave, so we had one extremely uncomfortable mother-son lunch at a Hooters, the whole time during which I refused eye contact with a single person, including my mother. Deeply troubling childhood experience. Do not bring your children to Hooters.

He was so incapable of working through the cognitive dissonance created by the situation that he was reduced to rage, and failed attempts at showing dominance combined with avoidance.

I’ve always hated the concept of hooters, I don’t want women to like me because their paid to, I want women to like me for who I am, despite my issues with my parents destroying any healthy psychology I could have as an adult.

Part of me is insanely curious to go to Hooters and see exactly how uncomfortable it makes me. Most of me just doesn't want them to have my business.

“Nothing is better than Hooters”
Pizza, daisies, smelling markers, any animal, a really good dream, a warm bath, picking a booger (a dry one), pizza, graham crackers, a nice sandwich, feeling good when you make a really good joke and someone laughs (in a nice way, not a mean way)…

It’s ok to enjoy hooters chicken wings. My sisters & I loved the food there as kids. I think the guy being clowned on in this video is just joking. It’s ok to dislike Hooters but let’s not pretend it’s super deep 😂
"I am more man than woman, *for now.*"
I love that. I relate to it very well, though with genders switched.
You can't change your gender.
As a heterosexual American male, I have only been to Hooters once (and it took me until I was in my early 30s). Two guys from work suggested to go there for an after work meetup. I've never been one to ogle women, or talk about how "hot" people are, even as a horny young teenager. I always thought that behavior was, as the kids say, "cringe."
The entire time was super uncomfortable. You know how you're always told to just ignore people if there is something awkward, like, let's say, wearing more revealing clothing or have an atypically large chest or something? Well, Hooters felt like it was just a constant "my eyes are up here" test. It's like, if I want to see titillation, I'll just stick to my own self pleasure, thank you.
Maybe I don't have as much testosterone or something as the average male that acts like an old timey Looney Tune with eyes popping out while imitating a wolf, but I don't see how being sexually frustrated (at best) in public is supposed to be entertaining. And the food is definitely nothing to write home about.
And I'm happily married with two children and I very much enjoy sex, but a significant amount of behavior at these sorts of places just seems deplorable (and sounds like it from stories from servers).
I live 10 minute walk from kingcross where there are about 10 strip clubs and 30 brothels, for 5 years.
A mate dragged me to a strip club in Brisbane, I spent the time drinking hanging out with the bouncer who let me (I'm very short). Then the bouncer said hey dude come here and see this.
Two of the strippers, who were a couple were making out back stage. They stopped for a bit saw me waived and went back to making out, they were high AF. I got the best show for free.
I remember hearing a guy say once (might have been a video, a tweet, something someone said to me in person, I don't know) "strip clubs aren't my thing because getting an awkward half-boner with my friends isn't my idea of a good time" and I think about it a lot
That's what I never understood about my coworkers who would watch porn on their mobile phones during our cigarette breaks. What, exactly, is the appeal of making oneself sexually frustrated in a semi-public setting?
Same reason I never understood strip clubs as well
@@julesmasseffectmusic I dont understand what being short has to do with this

I'm just extremely confused why he didn't sound like a muppet that day, I've never heard a clip of him talking sound so...normal (the sound of his voice, not the content of what he was saying)
"the threat of physical violence makes men respect each other'" - skeletal addict who sounds less threatening than the average 12 year old
Dude lost a fight with apple cider
My Illinois ass thought "JBP" stood for JB Pritzker for a solid 10 seconds and I was ABSOLUTELY baffled by the comment
A REAL MAN drinks responsibly. Be safe out there kids.
I just got done crying and turned this on, and immediately had a little chuckle. Seriously, thank you for that.
I hope you are OK. Peace, strength, love and many many blessings 🌈
hope my virtual hug helps ya feel better.

femboy hooters/ himbo hooters>actual hooters
What irks me about the violence thing is that violence is always a last resort and they are messing up the concept of martial arts and perverting it. Practicing martial arts has always been with peace as the forefront and war was the last resort, anything else is absolutely idiocy.
Unionizing Hooters was like the prestige. Such a surprising yet perfect mid video twist. I laughed out loud
This dude’s takes are so wild that I have to believe this is performance art to continue existing in society. 😂
I'm also continuously fascinated by the motivation for this. What is he doing?
I mean it seems like acting like an aggressive idiot works, so long as you're pandering to the right. It worked for Trump and it's working for Musk and it seems to be working for this guy. Most likely he'll be on Fox and then he'll get a book deal or some position of power or general access to wealth.
It's a parody account right?
It's a wild take that sexism is bad? Or are you talking about just Hooters?
OH you're talking about that fucking politician dude! I'm dumb
As THE Australian, we personally apologize for his divergence from our collective. We are currently trying our best to reincorporate him.
as an alpha male myself I can confirm that Hooters is very bussin no cap fr
Not to invalidate any points made about the alpha male mentality, but if you actually read through the guy's tweets there's no way this isn't a parody account by a troll. He even has a tweet saying "anyone who feels the need to tell you that he's an alpha male, is not an alpha male" which is obviously ironic. He also makes a lot of homoerotic slips like how he loves the way his butcher 'handles his meat' and that bit about a foursome. He's pulling a Stephen Colbert.
Agree he's a troll, disagree it's a parody. I think he's pulling exactly the thing that Mildred describes here - intentionally saying things so tempting to tweet a response to that it drives engagement. But Colbert had a point to make through his parody, this guy is just in it for the money.
He's a reactionary. That doesn't mean that it's a parody, and parody requires a clarity of purpose, else it just contributes to the same problems.
I’ve never experienced a female stripper but I’ve been to a few bachelorette parties and OF is honestly 1000x less weird and awkward than every male stripper experience I’ve ever had.
Porn is destroying your mind and your soul.
Gay guys, bisexual guys and maybe even some women might disagree with this, but I think that's because there's not a damn thing sexy about a single one of us. Our attempts to be sexy are laughable, at best, and digestively unsettling, at worst.
I am so glad you mentioned off the bat how no one under 50 would go to what I would charitably describe as a 1980's time capsule.
You shouldn't talk about 1980's time capsules like that. Video rental places often had wood paneling and a strange checkerboard style to the floor tile. It would actually be kind of neat to see one again.
Also, Gadzooks was around in the 80's and 90's; I think Gadzooks would actually do pretty well today if they could bring their prices down a little bit.
"No one under 50 is ever going to this resturant..."
Unless you include the entire wait-staff.
If hooters hired cougar staff I'd have more respect for it and the place would probably be nicer.
@@hayuseen6683 ok some start a breastaurant called cougars 😄
Hooters is a restaurant for old married men to fantasize about younger women. Single people realize there are bars across America where women not only dress just as revealing but might actually want to get interact and even hook up.
One day my aggressively American dad took me to Hooters to celebrate me becoming an adult. I'm AFAB.
...Maybe he thought you were gay and tried to be supportive?
@@kayeka4123 It was mostly just because he sees me as his drinking buddy
@@Detaur no man of good breeding would take a drinking buddy to hooters. You deserve better beer.
@@sealogic4552 Truuu but he always judges me when I try to buy IPA at non Hooters establishments
My grandpa took me to Hooters and it was one of the last times I got to spend time with him before he was hospitalized with brain cancer and died. So that’s what I associate with the place now.
I was just listening with my phone in my pocket, and I swear, I assumed you were doing some parody bit whenever you read a Tweet.
It didn't even occur to me to check until like, 12 minutes in.
...every moment of the sparkling water thing made me question reality on a deeper level than normal
Just started the video, needed to compliment your makeup immediately! It looks amazing, keep it up!!
