in my experience calling a girl annoying is guy for "im gonna try and fuck that chick". its an instant break up in my book.

but i did get all BIG HOOS on the thread.
what's the psych behind this? is it like the guy's putting the blame on the "annoying" chick because he can't deal with his being attracted to her?* or are annoying chicks just really hot?
*sorta like calling a woman a slut because she slept with you you slept with her?

― and what, Wednesday, 5 March 2008 21:42 (sixteen years ago) link
i think it's like, before the fact, "annoying" is an epithet of self-protection from the knowledge that he wants to sleep with her? but maybe a guy should answer this question. or sunny, because she's smart.

i think it's a way to get away with looking at the girl and acknowledging her in front of your gf, but doing it in a manner that would suggest "man i would never go for her". like when you say, "man look at her hat, how lame" you're thinking "but damn, the rest of her!!~"

this is pretty much true (well, hot chicks are annoying anyway), there is this thing where hot chicks think they are endlessly fascinating bcz nobody ever tells them to stfu~
also a steadfast rule abt ppl is that the more worked up abt something they are, the more they are prob overcompensating for something. the more a dude talks shit about a broad, the more he wants to bang her until her freckles fall off. she's probably still hell of annoying tho~

i dunno, there's the other side which is exemplified by my otherwise cool friend. it was at a point where he had to "run game" on any semi-attractive girl around. it usually involved "showing them something" by "touching their hands".

haha my friend actually played that "says one thing, means another" shit w/r/t "the game" because he commented on how this one guy we both knew was always trying to pick up girls and how lame it was, then suddenly he's trying to seduce girls by showing them how he uses his hands in martial arts and how he's learned some massage techniques and "here let me show you this one thing" (takes girl's hand)

A lot of kids’ titles there. Kids are notorious for wanting to watch the same movie, or have the same book read to them, over and over. Kind of wild that in the streaming world it’s just like “sorry, it’s gone. No, that’s no DVD of it. How do you even know what that is??”
