The tall person one? Deff not. There is a big height difference between my bf and I. I'm 5'2, and he's close to 6ft. Lol

I was told all this as a kid. Just didn’t listen.

don't make other people see or smell your shit. Do you own dishes, clean your own laundry and do it within hours NOT DAYS!
SUBsidR4
Not sure that you should be doing laundry that often bud
SQLdragon
point taken... ok, I meant start a load of laundry, wash and dry it within a few hours, not leave it in the machine for days (like roomate)

What a load of condesending self absorbed shit
ahernandez
This is some god awful advice.

"Not a single show accurately depicts life." Then how does the list of self loathing, anthropomorphic advice animals have any truth to it?
garuffthehorse
This is horrible life advice

#7 is complete crap. I'm 6'5" and my wife is 5'1".
filthytank
I’m 6’5” dating someone who’s 5’ bud idk how true these all are
Pinkerton6969
i think tall was just a substitute for anything seen attractive, like wealthy peopple wont date poor; beautiful people wont date ugly people

I think OP meant PESSIMIST guide, not Pragmatist.
dingleberriesm8
Pretty sure #6 is just factually wrong.

Ive been considering writing a pragmatic utilitarian philosophy book myself, being the epitome of both qualities. I think I just found a

guide on how not to fucking well write such a book.

OH: that one on fun: my idea of fun is solving complex issues and working out 7 hours a day 6 days a week. For others thats a nightmare.

THE LOVE OF* money is the root of all evil. Money itself isn’t bad, and can accomplish amazing things, if the person who has it loves other
SpringToMyWinter
People more than they love money.
ArtOzz
That one is somewhat misquoted or understood or something. "Power" corrupts as it gives people more choices, and when some are given the
ArtOzz
choice to do right but lose out or do wrong and gain, some or even most would opt for personal gain. Those best able to handle it are those
ArtOzz
given it by circumstance as theyll use it for the reason it exists, responsibly, rather than for personal profit. Money is a kind of power.

Lesson number: whatever, Don't be a cunt.
ArtOzz
Or if you do, dont be an idiot as well because a stupid cunt's lifespan is measured in hours.
Rebeltrooper1
True, and if there's something I learned in this life is to never underestimate how stupid a person can be.
ArtOzz
Amen.
SteveBinCypressTexas
Just going to join the bandwagon and chime in that I too read this thinking it was a crock of shit.
isitworthitthenlemmelurkit
In summation, life is short, people are assholes, fuck bitches, get money.
YourenotCheddar
Just to clarify, the full phrase is “Love of money is the root of all sorts of evil.”

Zootopia for emos.

These are true if you believe them. And if you don't, they aren't.
zaraztroe
They’re not true even if you believe them. They’re just lies and half truths

Dark but very accurate. Bravo!
calcifear
Supposed pragmatist doesn't know the difference between money and the love of money… it's the LOVE of money that's the root of evil
likemarkin
You misspelled pessimism
OMGhuskies
These are not Murphy's laws but being aware you can prepare for either best or worst scenario. Up to you. But being aware of truths helps.
MDAlchemist
Except most of these are written in such a way as to present the worst case scenario as the norm, which is inconsistent with reality.
JustARandomDutchGuy
mwah. If you expect the worst, it can only get better. Optimistic pessimism
ElloraD
Some of these are deep, others seem like personal experiences.... Which very from user to user.
threedsmax
Are you tall with money?
opsucks
very vary much
dovebair
I think the point is more to get you to think than to blindly follow what it says
IAmTheOneWhoCocks
This seems like a bitter person’s attempt to frame their life and choices as “right”
DrBabyDanny
I’d say more like tumblr in comic form.
SnortAKnifeIntoMyBrain
Most of these can be boiled down to "The only thing that should matter to you is whether you can look yourself in the mirror."

delightfullyhardenthusiast
I’m 5’6’’. The tallest woman I’ve dated was 6’1’’. It’s not about height. It’s about confidence.
hihiri
Im 6'3 and personally hate dating women my height. Most of my relationships have been close to the 5'6 or lower. Tallest was 6'2.
axiomatik
I’ve seen lots of taller girls comment they don’t mind dating shorter men, but often the man is insecure about being shorter and resents her
TheJazzGhost
Yup, I've dated taller women too and I am that height. Don't let anyone ever get you down because of height. Ever.
dafawkudoin
What’s your income?
delightfullyhardenthusiast
Around 3,000 a month. I’m an fmf corpsman. I’ve got a car etc etc
Mobileuserwholikestoberandom
Also personal preference.
Molotovbliss
More this than anything. I'm 5.11" girls taller than 6ft complain a lot of feeling emasculated for this. Not impossible, but definitely this
ArtOzz
Even then a lot of guys, and some girls, like shy and reserved.
Insomniacbable
Height helps tho
TheJazzGhost
So does being healthy, emotionally intelligent, and having a sense of humor. Use what you got.
kargatane
I am a 5'11" woman and I would date men of any height as long as they aren't an asshole about me being taller. That comic is bullshit.
RyoukoSama
6'5 here, hello ~wink~
Molotovbliss
Much like sexual preference, favorite color, etc. It really just depends on the person's perspective. Exhibit a)^
katytom64
Please teach me how
delightfullyhardenthusiast
Know who you are and be happy to own it. Walk into a room and think to yourself “yeah, I’m here, what’s up?”
sejer
What a load of naive bollocks
Aurourus
Yep, most of these fall into the "I'm 14 and this is deep.", category.
Corrodias
I think "naïve" is perhaps the opposite of the word you meant to use.
sejer
>adjective (of a person or action) showing a lack of experience, wisdom, or judgement. "the rather naive young man had been totally misled"
rubYYY
It's argumets like yours that fail to change my mind.
ahernandez
That wasn’t even an argument, just an exclamation
LtKifKroker
How about the concept from OP that assumes poor people are better and happier people
ThelmaTidwell
#16 asks which one is more fun, not better or happier. #21 is about how society views the poor. Again, nothing about happier or better.
rubYYY
Which one is that exactly? I mean I don't agree with all of them either but still to just bark at someone who critisizes your ideals isn't??
LtKifKroker
Mostly #16 and #21
RetConMan
I was searching for the words to describe this, but you had already found them.
monocline
I like how it says pragmatist guide when this is nothing but someone who's clearly a bitter ass.
ArtOzz
As a pragmatist, yeah, I twigged that its utter bollocks right around "Tall people only date tall people". I mean, WTF? I love short girls.
Textuality
I'm 5'11", which is pretty tall for a woman (especially Asian), and I've dated guys shorter than I am, as well as taller.
shadowbane1120
It is probably a metaphor, I just can’t figure out what it means
ArtOzz
Likewise. But even if you consider it like "Stand tall/confident" it still doesnt work as some people are extrovert but like introvert.
Molotovbliss
The author is exclusive to relating to being male. Case in point dick size. Don't think this applies to female or they'd compare tit sizes.
rubYYY
Why do you assume that someone that doesn't see the world as you do is unahppy? For all you know Bill Gates might have posted this.
robynbanksthetroubador
Not necessarily unhappy, but certainly bitter. Important difference
monocline
Context clues based around how most of these assume the worst in people.
ArtOzz
To be fair, have you met people?
monocline
No, I live in a cave in the middle of the ass end of nowhere and I'm replying with the power of my mind.
