Makes sense to me. If I had to spend my days with senators and rulers, I'd want to spend my nights with a better class of people, too.

THE ANTI-SEDUCER

TYPOLOGY OF THE ANTI-SEDUCERS

• The most characteristic trait of an anti-seducer is insecurity. No one is a fully confident person, but somehow we find ourselves seducing someone or someone seducing us, this gives us a boost of confidence, isn't it? an anti-seducer can't let themselves go in the process because of their anxieties and self-consciousness. They close themselves off, ambiguity isn't a mystery or cause them curiosity, for them it is a sign of betrayal, a wound on their ego. They are blinded by their self-absorbedness.
• They are experts in repelling people, avoid them. Sometimes it is hard to detect them because they are subtle. First, you must look for signs of their insecurity and self-absorption, maybe they are ungenerous or they argue with unusual tenacity, or are excessively judgemental. Perhaps they lavish you with undeserved praise, declaring their love before knowing anything about you. But most importantly, they pay no attention to details. Since they cannot see what makes you different, they cannot surprise you with nuanced attention.
• Try to look at these qualities in yourself, too. You can change them and become a better seducer. A seducer understands that they have to be more open, even if it all ends in deception. For example: if you don't want to spend money, it means you are incapable of giving in general. Stamp ungenerosity out. It is an impediment to power and a gross sin in seduction.

There is nothing more anti-seductive than feeling that someone has assumed that you are theirs, that you cannot possibly resist them. The slightest appearance of this kind of conceit is deadly to seduction; you must prove yourself, take your time, win your target's heart. Perhaps you fear that he or she will be offended by a slower pace, or will lose interest. It is more likely, however, that your fear reflects your own insecurity, and insecurity is always anti-seductive. In truth, the longer you take, the more you show the depth of your interest, and the deeper the spell you create.

TYPES

THE BRUTE: Seduction is a process and the more patient you are, the better: you create anticipation and tension. Your victim will want to surrender

Do your worst!

It really does, I swear!

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

Pilot on me!!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

When I got home, they were still there.

Roma Invicta fellow warriors!

After making my previous post about Gladiator armor set name inspirations, I immediately planned to make this one! as a big fan of Rome's military and cultural history, I wanted to see where the Armor set names came from, and whether their design matches the name.

also, just like the Gladiator post, I'll indicate which armor type it is:

• Scaled Chest [SCC] - these are the armors with a scalled chest plate and sharp and undetailed face mask.
• Segmented Armor [SEA] - This is the armor based on Lorica Segmentata style of Roman Armor
• Full Chest Regular [FCR] - This is the armor like the default centurion armor with a full chest plate and pants.
• Full Chest Face [FCF] - These are the newest armors that have Centurion's face uncovered.
• Full Chest Improved [FCI] - These are the armors that are like the Default Armor but buffed up and bulkier.

You'll also realize that most of these armor sets are actually named after provinces and regions under the control of Rome at various points in time, so yeah, here we go, starting from Common going up to Legendary:

• Campania [FCR] (Default) - It's named after the Roman Region below that of Rome in the Italian Peninsula where the word "Campaign" originates from. Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius are found here.
• Baetica [SEA] (Common) - Named after the Spanish Province's (which was called Hispania by the Romans) southern Region, Hispania Baetica, a region that was taken from Rome's greatest enemies in the Classical era, the Empire of Carthage (Referred to as "Punics" by the Romans, since they were Phonecians). Julius Caesar's greatest ally turned enemy, Titus Labienus died in this region in a battle against Caesar.
• Dalmatia [SCC] (Common) - named after the Province of Dalmatia, where the Illyrian tribe of the Dalmatae lived. it was located at the Balkans, just North East of Greece. During Caesar's Time, it was referred to as Illyricum (in Latin), or Illyria (in Greece). After the First Roman Emperor, Augustus Caesar, conquered the lands north of Illyricum and expanded the Province, Illyricum was eventually dissolved and split into two provinces, Dalmatia and Pannonia.
• Alaudae [FCF] (Rare) - Named after the Legion Legio V Alaudae (5th Legion of the Lark), which was a Gaulic (barbarians which lived in the French lands northeast of the Alps) word which referred to the Lark bird. Roman Legions had numbers and

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.
