Now I was doing it big, all on my own
Gripping wood grain and riding on chrome
Sprinkling game everywhere that I go
Cause all these horny girls want to fuck
Now I was old school riding, slamming my doors
Reclining, shining like a pimp s'posed
Life ain't nothing but an EQ of highs and lows

That's kind of interesting I guess, I know a lot of people were wearing masks when that swine flu thing was going around but since then it's only Japanese tourists that I've seen with them.

After my sister a while back had some surgery a while back, our family was provided with a vast amount of these masks so as to not infect her with any diseases, but I stay inside mostly, so there has not really been a reason for me to wear a surgical mask outside; perhaps I could take advantage of the winter season and go out wearing a mask now just for the sake of wearing a mask, since I could just say that I am protecting myself against the flu if questioned about it

>> No.10193055

I wish I could wear masks here without getting stopped by every cop. Imagine a skull painted on it my EDGY would double.

I want one of these but that covers my entire face. I'm way too handsome and it gets frustrating when people are all over me because of it. Its like being a girl with very large breasts she can't hide, or a guy with a very large dick bulge.
I just become objectified as "that heavenly looking supermodel guy I want to impregnate me"
It's annoying. Please see me as a person! Beyond my good looks, heightened intelligence and wit, I'm no different from the rest of you humans!

Honestly, this is exactly why I never go outside anymore. It just becomes too much to stand, but wearing a mask in public in the West would just make me more mysterious and enchanting than I already am and end up worsening the problem.

I'm guessing you two are joking, but being attractive can be very uncomfortable at times. Girls try to talk to me or slip me their number or ask if i want to go do something (complete strangers, I think it's the weirdest thing), etc., etc. I have no idea how to respond to half of that stuff so I mostly just mumble a single word answer or "no thank you" and try to escape.
I would like to wear a cool mask in public, I have a hoodie that zips up to cover my nose and mouth, but it looks pretty ghetto. When I'm sitting down I pretty frequently will pull my shirt up to cover at least my mouth.

Please don't bully that guy by posting pictures of him when he was younger. He's probably unbearably embarrassed by such things. I wouldn't know though since it's not like that's a picture of me or anything, I'm just assuming things. It's not me.

I was the first post and while I exaggerated a bit for comedic effect so I am liked in /jp/, I am not joking.
I really also hate when girls approach me, since I am handsome they don't expect me to be a sperg, and the embarrassment from being approached like that and not being able to respond is horrible.
It was worse in high school and thankfully that is a few years behind me now. Girls were way too forward, taking sips of my drink, grabbing my arm or touching my chest or falling into me thinking I'm going to catch them so they can steal a hug and instead I freeze up and they trip and it gets really awkward.
It's not all bad though. I'm pretty sure people only cover for me or offer help and compliments all the time because of it. Being good looking is the only thing I have in my life. Good thing I'm a man, women age horribly.
