She likes men that read? That’s an easy enough requirement to meet.

>>213846003
She likes ATTRACTIVE men who happen to be reading when she notices how ATTRACTIVE they are. If a guy like me was reading, she wouldn't give a shit.

>>213845920 (OP)
Fight Club
Cider House Rules
Stand By Me
Princess Bride

>>213846003
she likes men with large veiny hands, ostensibly over 6’2”, balanced facial proprtions, forward grown chin and brow ridge, not balding. reading is a very minor bonus

I found the American Psycho novelization to be excellent, and the prose is delivered very accurately by Christian Bale you can tell he actually read the book.

This niggah reading a book about Nike lmaooooo I’m sure she’s really into that

i pick up chicks all the time and i look like beetljeuice

>>213846129
I’ve listened to that on audiobook. It’s about the Nike founder who comes across as a mildly autistic track-and-field athlete who was one of the original weeaboos (basedfacing at Japanese running shoes and deciding he should import them to the US).
Makes it even funnier.

but a cute tomboy would say that..

All attractive men with a moniker of intelligence are always, always homosexual. If a man has both looks and brains, women will be like termites beneath his feet. It's only the ugly, FtM-looking mongrels who waifufag on this site that care about lowly creatures like holes.

He's reading shoe dog... A book about an egotistic asshole who exploited people and cheated the system at every opportunity. That book made me sick. I hate when people talk about it like what he did was impressive or admirable. He was and is a piece of shit even to this day.

You can tell a seething woman made that post because they're the only ones that use "pick me" as a real insult
Imagine being of the mindset that someone else who has interests and is pleasant to be around has to be doing so with ulterior motives, and that no woman could possibly be a non-cunt for free. Why are women so obsessed with making the world a worse place to live

Reading a book in a bar is such inappropriate behavior that's so obvious a larp that it deserves to be humiliated. It's like taking a nap on the couch in the middle of a house party or playing music on your phone at a wedding ceremony. It just defies all social sense to the point of criminal autism. The foid is correct and a based Stacey for calling this shit out. Go be a quirk chungus alt girl at a fucking cafe.

>>213848684
>You can tell a seething woman made that post because they're the only ones that use "pick me" as a real insult

This. Their go to excuse for putting other women down is also claiming that pick mes typically shit on other women. Not only ironic but lacks so much self-awareness.

If she's reading a book it's not Dostoyevsky, it's soft porn about her having to choose between 20 alphas and she's fat and beautiful. It's like a classier way to watch porno.

>>213848684
Nah, I'm a man and I'm here laughing at that goofy bitch too

shitty forced meme

>>213849305
While this is true, if she knew anything worth knowing she'd equally call you a basic bitch for reading Dostoyevsky too. Obviously classic Russian literature has more merit, but it's also really zeitgeist.

>>213848797
Or she's just in the middle of something? I've read books in bars too. When I travel for work, I take a book with me because doomscrolling is lame. I go to the bar to get a drink while I read. I don't normally sit at the bar though, I find a quiet booth in the back somewhere that I won't be bothered. It's a better way to spend my time, and maybe have an idle chat with a fellow patron or with the bartender rather than just sit in my hotel room alone and wait for it to get late enough to justify going to bed.

>>213849711
That really wasn't the point.
>>213849612
It's neither of those things and it'll outlive you.

I'm pretty good looking, probably a 7/10 to most, 6 or 8/10 to some. 5'11'' (lol), and have good social skills, 36 years old. Can I pull at a bar alone? Also I'm funny haha. Never got into bars.

Man the seething from whoever took that picture is sad. Can't imagine being that miserable.

>>213851297
maybe, but it is kind of retarded to go to a loud bar, AND read a book by yourself, AND pay 3x as much for alcohol. I've never seen that.
Go to a quiet bar in the afternoon to read and have a drink? I can see that, fine.

The dishonesty. She is telling guys that she is a shy nerd who just wants to sit and read a book. But she is only doing that because she thinks some guy will approach her. Once she has the guy she will stop this behavior.
It's like a guy driving around a sports car showing off his wealth to women and then when a woman falls for the trap he reveals it's a rented car.

The most famous pick-me is Amber Heard. These freaks are insane chameleons and psychos.

Women have no understanding of the concept of showing-off, that's exclusively a male thing. Women will unironically and inevitably see everyone else as a grateful receptacle of their splendor, that's their default state of being and mind, they don't show off because that would imply going out of one's way to do something specifically to garner attention, when that's merely their baseline. 100% she is pretending to be reading because she wants to lure a "nerdy" guy, most likely because of tiktok propaganda.

Kino pick. Forgot about that one. Best Keanu Reeves role imo. Movie and book in general hits way harder when you realize much of it is basically Dick’s autobiography https://youtu.be/AewSwHcNvGw?si=oI5wPxZCmyWPWXgO

Wont regret it, it’s a fantastic read. Iirc it was the author’s only significant work, a shame because it is incredibly beautifully written. Also incredibly iconic and foundational to most modern post apocalyptic fiction including Fallout and others.
