    Male fashion and how it has changed.

    Hello Jamieson 90, among others, I think that fashion is mostly a waste of time and that it makes more sense to wear whatever is affordable and comfortable. I often wear skirts during the summer months, and I am male. I do not care what others consider socially acceptable or fashionable...

    Charlie Munger on How to Succeed in Life

    Hi Coppernerves, Make sure to watch the rest of the video. There are great insights that you haven't gotten to yet, such as the application of inversion to day-to-day life as practiced by Carl Jacobi. I do think that it's a good idea to continue learning every day. I try to; I have...

    Charlie Munger on How to Succeed in Life

    Hello Escapist dot com members and future friends, This is a video that I try to watch at least once a quarter. It is about how to succeed - and not fail - in life. It was an address given at USC by Charlie Munger, Vice Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, all the way back in 2007. It is a very...

    Your Life's Highlights

    Hello Cojo965, among others, I have had only a few highlights in my life so far. The first one happened when I outed a pedophile who was running an MMORPG fan site with court documentation that detailed his various convictions. I was very happy with myself regarding that. The others...

    Introducing Myself as a New Community Member for Your Enjoyment

    Hello TopazFusion, I appreciate that you have taken the time out of your day to welcome me to your web site. I have enjoyed it so far - I am debating with another member about vanity already! That is a good start, I think. Hopefully I will have more conversations with you in time. I have...

    Clothing Items you just don't understand

    Hi Valium, I disagree with your assessment of the term vanity, but I will agree that it is not a sin in wanting to look pretty. I do not believe in any sins, it is just irrational because of the time wasted on such things. That same time dedicated to your own education would be more...

    Clothing Items you just don't understand

    Vanity is not a positive attribute to have. It does not accomplish anything of merit, so spending an inordinate amount of time or money on it does not really make sense. I do hope that you find happiness and will be your friend always. SVilleca

    I need a new series/movie/game

    Please keep in mind that there are two versions of this program. The original one was a BBC production and, in the view of this member, the superior of the two. It takes place in the English Parliament as opposed to the U.S. Congress. SVilleca

    Clothing Items you just don't understand

    Hi Candidus, among others, The use of suits to convey professionalism and ability is a Rational Astrology, and their value comes only because society believes that perception to be true and accurate. There is nothing about wearing a suit that intrinsically indicates someone's superiority or...
