In 2026, let's get ugly, and mean.
First, it's time to stop being attractive. Waste of time. Least interesting thing about us. Not only will we gain thousands of dollars, but we'll also get the extra 130 hours per year that women spend on their appearance than men. That's three full work weeks and change.. every single year. Imagine what we could do with it!
Next, it's time to stop being nice. It's not helping. You've been socialised to make people feel good when you make decisions and that's a terrible way to do cool shit. Fuck them. Do what needs doing, feelings be damned.
In accordance with the Overcorrection Doctrine, we need to seriously overcorrect on the behaviour that's holding us back. What feels ugly and mean to you is probably still hotter and meeker than your run-of-the-mill Brian.
Ladies: this will only work if we unite. No prisoner's dilemma for us.
Merry Christmas.
