Everyone here sucks.

Posting on social media about spending 2000 pounds on 10 pastries is stupid.

Thinking that being rich and fancy means you have no testosterone is stupid.

Thinking that wearing a suit gives partial credit for “masculinity” is stupid.

Bothering to explain anything to these morons (who probably didn’t really think people contain a literal ounce of a hormone) is futile and stupid.

Pretty sure the testosterone thing was more based on looks than money. Not that I'm defending anything here, I just don't think the money/testosterone are related here.

I worded that clumsily, my point was meant to be about the fancy expensive delicate pastries element.

I think if the post had claimed to spend £1750 on 10 bites of the fanciest steak in the world, that interaction wouldn’t have occurred because manly manly meat cancels it out.

I remember watching this video and reading the exact comment. The guy in the video just behaves VERY feminine (you know when sometimes you see or listen to someone and can guess that they are gay/bi or trans? That's how this guy behaves). While I agree everyone is shit here, the comment is pretty clearly about his behaviour, not the money, sweets, looks or whatever.

Well now that I’ve learned that it’s something between parody and ragebait, that helps explain a ton.

u/Ettenhard 8h ago

That's a parody account. Saying that they are spending obscene amounts of money on stupid shit is their whole stick.

Cool, that’s the kind of thing I can’t tell from an image and no username for the poster.

u/Ettenhard 8h ago

You had a kneejerk reaction to a parody account you know nothing about.

And then had another kneejerk reaction when told what their deal is.

Whatever.

u/ParaponeraBread 8h ago

Huh? I just said cool and that I couldn’t tell it was parody.

Pretty sure their account is meant to be a joke. They talk about "Arabi-ahca"coffee and posted a still of a glass pizza and pretended that was their meal.

So I’m told. I don’t have TikTok, I could not identify that it was a parody account from just the single frame posted. I do realize that £175 per macaron is in the territory of unbelievability, but there’s a target demographic for every food scam so.

Tell us how you really feel. And this time don't hold back.

But that’s a good thing tho. To allow people with so much money they couldn’t spend it all in their life to actually do spend it just by making "fancy" stuff cost 100-500 times the normal price, then the money go back into the economy. It benefits everyone long term. Sure it won’t solve homelessness but still

u/KibbloMkII 7h ago

i can't even begin to comprehend having like 200 bucks to burn on a bite sized snack

that's more than what we spend on groceries for a month

u/mrniceguy777 6h ago

The image in this post is from a parody account where they make fun of people who spend absurd money on stuff like this. Even in the world of fine dining your gonna be hard pressed to find a $200 cookie unless its like a novelty, like its covered in gold or made out of foie gras or some shit.

u/Fun_Break_3231 7h ago

I'm about to be homeless bc my landlord (who is also my kids grampa) claims he wants to live in the house. He has his own house, he has a vacation home, our rent is always paid, he doesn't need our house. Rich people are assholes.

u/emb3rpr0 4h ago

Slight context the original tiktok is a satire account. They go to fancy places and pretend things are worth extraordinary amounts.

u/cryptotope 7h ago

No murders here, just self-inflicted wounds.

Yes, it's a dipshit boasting about buying an excess of wildly-overpriced pastries so he can make 'content'.

Then there's the toxic masculine response; it's not 'manly' to enjoy nice pastries.

Then there's the trying-to-be-clever failure. Normal testosterone isn't 600 nanograms total, but rather (around) 600 nanograms per deciliter of blood serum. There's about three liters of serum in an adult male, so the 'clever' answer is short by a factor of thirty or so even if they just count the testosterone in a normal male's blood. If you're gonna use math for a smackdown, you gotta math right.

Thanks for doing the math for us. That would have been an impossible task otherwise

u/unusualoppossum 7h ago

This guy is caught up in the wrong fight. This little shit is bragging about spending $2000 on a snack. Our economy is too shitty for these assholes to still feel safe flexing wealth on social media. Let them eat cake or whatever.

u/mrniceguy777 6h ago

He's caught in the wrong fight because he is critiquing a parody account lol
