Comments on: Belonging To The Tribe http://www.rooshv.com/belonging-to-the-tribe Sun, 12 Feb 2012 03:40:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Nikita http://www.rooshv.com/belonging-to-the-tribe#comment-24577 Nikita Sat, 06 Sep 2008 00:52:34 +0000 http://www.rooshv.com/2008/belonging-to-the-tribe#comment-24577 Oh Roosh, just noticed this post. You're nice giving kudos to that "awesome girl," but you're silly making know-it-all generalizations about her group of closest friends. Frankly, if you'd actually made an attempt to strike up a conversation with anyone new on that picnic blanket (VK doesn't count) instead of mumbling erratically about your awesome pumpkin butter, you might have learned just how different and surprising a "tribe's" individual stories can be. For example, you might have met the Ohio farmboy with a giant tattoo of the Angel Gabriel, who is the youngest of ten kids and whose favorite meal happens to be beef chili from a can served over spaghetti. Or you might have chatted with the thirtysomething former parole officer who plays Aussie Rules football and couldn't give a shit what people think of him. Or maybe you would have learned something about the young Republican son of a current U.S. ambassador, who grew up in-- among other places-- your own beloved Republic of Iran. Too bad you didn't even take time to introduce yourself to the Lebanese guy who shares a lot of your sentiments about how ignorant Americans can be toward the rest of the world. With this ridiculous post, I'm afraid you've make yourself look just as one-dimensional. Oh, and by the way-- your host brought the hummus. Oh Roosh, just noticed this post.

Democrats, Republicans, Christians, Muslims, Catholics, Jews, Americans, Redskins fans, you get the idea. All believing their view is the truth, because it's what they were told by their parents. If you can't vote for someone because of their religion, skin color, gender, or anything else they do not have control of, anything other than their qualifications, then you are an idiot. Go COWBOYS!

I cook my own food and like to eat/exercise/be healthy, but I don't like hummus or Apple or consuming things just to be part of a group. I think I'm too out of the loop and in my own little world to "belong."
