Anyone here /jelqing/? https://www.pegym.com/penis-exercises/how-does-jelqing-work-jelq-techniques-jelquing
Im thinking about starting. Im currently a 7x5 incher (lengthxgirth) and looking to reach the golden 8x6
Is it a realistic goal?
>>16757673
>Is it a realistic goal?
No. Jelqing, like all other penis-extension methods, is a scam. It does nothing.
>tfw body dysmorphia from porn
>tfw decently sized dick (told so by multiple girls) but it always seems small to you
>tfw can wrap both hands around the shaft without even reaching the head and still don't think it's big enough
;___;
isnt that really bad for your dick? ive heard horror stories about jelqing, while hearing just about nothing on success stories
hi guys im needing help to figure out what the best state is to join the military in. if i join in texas i get the texas hazelwood act (along with my gi bill) which gets me 150 free credit hours at any public university here in texas. so is there a state that could top that? im looking specifically at extra educational benefits (to accompany my gi bill), and im doing 4 years active duty in the air force. any help would be appreciated.
yes my heart is set on joining the military (for other reasons too) so dont waste your time to try to convince my otherwise. and most states that ive researched (including texas) dont require you to be a resident but rather just enlist in the state
>>16757670
enlist under a MOS that actually teaches you something that can transition into a civilian job.
they will tempt you with reenlistment. they may threaten with withholding certifications or licensing. it's whatever. have fun with the four years extra.
College grad here, got a real job starting in April, need to pay the bills until then. I'm already driving for Lyft, but I want something to supplement that. What are some of the easiest/simplest ways to make money? I don't want to get an actual part time job anywhere, I'm not above labor but the less commitment I have to put in the better.
Essentially I'm very lazy and want money. Feel free to tell me not to be a bum but if you have actual ideas that'd be awesome too.
Also I'm a dude and I'm not gonna suck anyone off.
I'd like to know it too.
I'm brazilian, started studying at one of the most expensive universities of the country and I'm totally dependent of my father's money.
I can't apply for a regular job for reasons, but I'd love to have my own money (even if it's not much).
Get an easy, but too complicated for plebs skill.
Good starting points are web design, pc repair and tax preparation.
Use the Google machine for a good textbook or read the fuck out of documentation.
Get a book from library genesis.
Then lie lie lie about your background.
Avoid really popular or well connected people for your first few clients.
It's not really a big deal to screw up your first few jobs, as long as you can talk circles around people and don't serve thugs.
Sell services to plebs.

19yo here and I need to get the fuck away from my,family and the general area I've lived in my whole life (Alabama).
Not trying to be the edgy discontent teenager or anything like that, it's just that my life is going nowhere and both of my parents are repressing me without them understanding it. I've suffered deep seated depression and social anxiety for years due to how I was raised and have only just now begun to come out of.
Problem is I have effectively no money, and nowhere to go, and I'm not going to steal money or take things my parents have paid for just to keep comfortable if I can in any way avoid it.
Basically I just want to cleanly cut contact with them. I have seen threads about people doing similar things on /adv/ so I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on this, even if only hypothetically.
>>16757665
its not edgy to become an adult and say 'gee id really like to live my own life' so get that notion out of your head. ur doing what everyone does. growing up. and thats great.
but you're also asking for cheatcodes, and there arent any.
first and foremost
>figure out where you want to live
most people gravitate to a city. they tend to be more expensive but its easier to start a new life there on your own then in a small town, where they kinda expect you to only move there for work or a family.
but you need money to move. so you gotta get some
>BUT HOWWW
well you can go to your bank and ask for a personal line of credit. i was able to do this even without a job just saying 'oh i do freelance web work'. they did it when i had zero dollars in my account too under the idea that this is to help you get back on your feet. just be careful.
that being said, get a job you fuckin bum! you cant move without money so why not make money? you're going to need one when you move, so why not start saving now? you should save at least 5000 dollars before a move. but you would be better off saving more.
look around for local gigs on top of your job to make extra money (or in lieu of a job) and start saving away. got a vehicle? sell it and get an even cheaper one. that sort of thing.
once you got your money (preferrably 6 months worth of funds, but hey, 5000 isnt a bad start) go to the city you want to move to. look at free couch surfing sites (i was surprised to find they exist) and immediately start looking for people subletting their spare rooms. if they at least have a bed, you are set.
stay there until you find a job. once you find a job, you can put away a lil more money and then move in to your own apartment.
source: i moved out when i was 18
>>16757683
This is pretty good advice, but three $5000 mark is a little high.
An easier choice is to save about $800, bus to the city, job hunt hardcore when you are there. Move into a sublease room as soon as you get a job (if you use Craig's list, any existing roommate group of three or more people will probably be chill).
A easy way to get your initial seed money is through a student loan refund.
You're more likely to thrive off a part time job and student loan refund and you'll have much more personal and career growth that way.

The big problem, and reason I have no money, is that I just never get a callback or appointment to interview when I'm applying for a job. Granted the places I've applied to are all around a college town so I imagine they're swamped, but I have nothing to put on a resumé to make myself stand out and don't seem to have any luck getting any attention when job hunting.
The other problem is that I'm in Alabama and there aren't any cities in this state worth moving to, they're all rundown to shit. Nearest decent city is Atlanta in Georgia but it's not far enough away from my family and is also incredibly shitty and rundown in some areas. So not only do I need to factor the cost of living, I also need to factor in the cost of travelling potentially several states away.
>be 30, male
>suffered acne on and off for literally half my life, and my entire adult life
>three successful courses of accutane throughout this time (although the final treatment was cut short due to an adverse reaction)
>some shorter term success with topicals
>generally healthy diet, lifestyle and hygiene
>taking steps to reduce stress, such as meditation
Yet I still, STILL get acne. Fortunately it's only mild compared to what it was, but the spots I do get on my face are cysts, which are painful and persistent.
First I thought it was processed/sugary foods, so I reduced or even cut them out of my diet. Then I was convinced it was stress, because it got worse when I was unemployed and better when I got a job. Now I just think I have shitty genes. Otherwise on the rare occassions when my skin is clear, women seem to find me attractive, but when I have breakouts I don't have the confidence to go out.
Has anyone been in a similar situation and overcome this ridiculous and diabolical problem?
>>16757655
you aren't exercising enough. Do 1hr of cardio a day. Or 3 days of lifting a week and 2 days of 1hr cardio then your problems will go away.
>>16757655
i feel your pain. pic related is me. left was thanksgiving of 2014, right was january 2015.
i tried so many different things and most didnt work. cutitng out dairy, cutting out greasy stuff, exercise, drinking all the water in the world, even changing my sleeping habits so that my face floats mid air with my forehead hanging off my pillow so that i dont have skin touching the pillow. didnt work.
best i found so far was
>retin-A in the morning and as needed
>salicylic acne wash in the shower
>moisturizer after shower and as needed
>erythromicin gel at night
Retin-A is literally just accutane applied to the face. it doesnt work permanently like accutane does, as its just topical, but it peels it all away really fast and really nice.
salicylic acid just dries out the face further so acne cant grow, strongest face wash ive ever used. moisturizer stops it from flaking out of course, and on top of that prevents you from over producing oils that will kil lit.
erythromicin is a topical gel but its literal anti biotics, used to kill the bacteria that creates acne. its a powerful combination but its not perfect. while it CAN keep my face clear for weeks, for the most part its one pimple here or there, bnarely noticeable, just a red spot type things. not a perfect solution, but in your case might be all you can.
ive never had 'cystic' acne either, so i cant really vouch for how well it will work for it.
my recommendation is wait til you've had some time, then get back on accutane.
in my attempts to completely destroy my acne i recently started accutane and hoping it works.
i feel your pain. when i dont have acne i feel pretty fucking cute and can go out and get laid or get a number or what have you. with acne i odnt even like going to friends house cuz i feel they judge me
>>16757719
what are some well known brands of Retin-A cream? I assume it's over the counter?
Is it more effective than benzoyl peroxide?
>Be me
>Get called into a manager's office
>be told they believe I'm involved with a string of shopliftings at the store
What should I do?
>>16757621
are you black?
>>16757621
if its true, simply resign. if its not, then explain that you are not involved, you'll gladly report any suspicious activity back to them, they are welcome to post more cameras if they think it will help, but that 'believing' is not evidence, and until they have evidence you'd like to be excused to go back to work.
>>16757626
No, white.
>>16757637
The place I work doesn't actually have cameras. Do you know if they'd try strong-arming one into signing a confession or something, even if they don't have evidence?
What do I do if I can't love girls? I think it's disgusting that they've all sucked dick and sent nude pictures to dudes before. I missed out on a lot of sex because I'm not good at talking. For guys to get laid it requires luck and waiting but women have the chance to fuck every single day. I literally can't love
>>16757611
>requires luck
>>16757611
>what do i do if i can't love girls?
get over it. whether its getting over the fact that you cant love them and finding a way too, forgetting over girls in general and just living your life without them.
are you of high moral fiber and have never had sex or sent a nude of yourself / wouldn't if soemone cared enough to ask? if yes, then perhaps you should seek out a highly religious wife.
if religion isn't why you consider it moral, than why do you?
and if not, why the double standard?
>>16757625
I mean yeah I've sent and received nudes but it was really one with one or two girlfriends I mean most girls have fucked like 20 dudes sent nudes to a shit load of guys when they were younger and sucked strangers off
I'm sharing a rehearsal room with friends, we're about 10 now and we often chill when no one's playing music.
There's a girl that started to come sometimes but she looks really lost. She's 22.
This weekend she came at 2pm and we were already 3. The 2 others were playing Fifa so I spoke with her around 30 minutes. She told me she had tons of psy troubles, dropped school at 19 and was on welfare.
Then we were more and she got drunk, like dead drunk at 5pm and I noticed some cuts on her arm.
I've seen her only 3 times but the friend that invites her seems to not notice/care. I had to leave, but wrote her a message today on facebook that she could tell me if she needed someone to talk instead of being alone.
But now I realise I've never really been with troubled people. I'm 27, got my life on good tracks and generally really happy about everything. My friends are also normie as fuck.
What are some tips and things to know/do to help her ?
Disclaimer : I'm not interested in sex with her or a relationship.
bump before going to bed, would be happy to have any answer
>>16757688
Typing up a reply, 2 mins
Do nothing, as someone who self harms, we don't want it to be acknowledged. If she has cuts in places that are visible (wrists, legs) and she wears t shirts and shorts, then she clearly only wants atttention for it, and has no underlying issues besides a craving for attention. If, she took off her sweater and forgot her cuts were there, or unintentionally had them exposed, then, still, its none of your business, don't fucking say anything.
Passed the girl I like in the street about lunchtime todayand never noticed til it was too late, no idea if she noticed me (UK fag so it's about 9.30pm here), would it be weird to message her now just saying how I never noticed it was her until afterwards? We haven't spoke in a while so I was just gonna try start a new conversation, and if you haven't noticed I am indeed autistic as fuck.
>>16757583
You have nothing to lose, so why not?
"Hey, hours ago I walked passed you in the streets. Wannafuck?"
Anybody know who's got good Internet for a good price??plz
>>16757563
>implying you have any other option besides comcast in your area
>>16757563
It depends on where you live, kid. We can't do this research for you.
I thought i could go here for a question like this. I am 18 and about to graduate from highschool and I am interested in computer science. There is an online accredited college that offers a bachelors degree in compsci for little to no tuiton cost. The dilema is that i am told that I wouldn't be hired in the workforce due to the simple fact that I went to an online college and not a university. Could you give me some pointers on a topic such as this?
That's correct. Your degree is largely just a qualification that serves to tick a box during the hiring process. However that piece of paper should still come from a traditional institution. Start with your local community college and then transfer to the nearest campus for a state school.
Ever been so horny you had sex with a nigger?
Post your stories ITT.
>2 weeks ago
>meet black girl in club, goes by the name Kashmere
>we end up at my place, too scared to have sex I just let her suck my dick then I cum in her moth
>she yells OMG NO when I cum in her mouth
>I freak out because I think I raped her
>drop her off at her friend's house
>never returned to the club
also how fucked am I if I let her suck my dick without a condom?
bumpo no pico
i don't think there's much you can get from receiving a blowjob desu, if you didn't go near the poontang you should be all cool
Are my teeth ugly? In my opinion they are the reason I'm being rejected all the time. The worst thing is that me and my family dont have money to repair them.
>>16757496
your teeth are fine.
you're probably being rejected cause you're autistic and/or unattractive.
>>16757499
I'm 6/10, pretty social guy. Maybe I'm just a fucking pussy god damn it.
>>16757496
teeth are cool man.

How do I get rid of a stalker? I tried talking to her about it, telling her to stop, without success. She also frequents this board for as far as I know. Is seizing contact completely the only way to get her off my back? She might think I'm playing along or something, but I don't think she really believes that.
>>16757443
shes not a stalker if you havent tried to cut her out of your life. until then shes just really invested in your relationship (to whatever extent that may be).
block her on facebook, send her one lastd text 'blocking you, please leave me alone, do not talk to me, do not approach me, do not come near my home goodbye'
then block her. NEVER respond. ever. if she shows up at your place say 'leave or i will call the cops'. if she does not leave, call the cops.
>>16757467
There is no relationship. I wanted her to be normal. If that what it takes, okay fine.
>>16757474
there is a relationship. relationships arent just dating. you have a relationship with everyone you meet, even if its just aquaintance. so until you block someone, shes taking your casual relationship and blowing it out of proportion trying to make it better.
cut er off
Hey /adv/ So 3 years ago I met this girl, who I intantly fell in love with. Irish, really cute, short and with a pretty good body. So, as beta as I was/am, I never asked her out and I acted fucking cringey around her.
So ff a couple of years, she has to leave to her home town to study phisics at uni, thought I would never see her again. Keep in mind she was the only person I have ever loved.
Ff 1 year, life is great, studying at uni, not as beta as before (haven't gotten any pussy yet, haven't tried either, since I don't see the point of hooking up with someone you don't feel anything special with), going on parties on weekly basis. So last thursday comes. Not much people went to party among those who I live with on the residence, only me and 4 more people, altho all of my class went too. Sooo I'm having the time of my fucking life, best party ever, but then I find her. I fucking find her. I remember how I love her to the core. We catch up, I get suprised I don't get cringy or beta AT ALL. She even hugs me multiple times... And then she tells me she has to leave on friday. When we part ways, me and my friends go to a club (got offered a bj I declined, cuz no homo) and I tell them I gotta leave. Spend ten minutes crying on a bench, another hour going to the bus stop, crying like a bitch all the way to the residence, keep crying through the whole night. That's the story. Not pasta, I promise. And no, I'm neither fat, ugly or a manlet, just a bit socially awkward, VERY awkward when it comes to relationships.
Wat do
Go talk to her about your feelings. Dont be scared cuz it sounds like she likes you and she would maybe even consider staying. But if it aint going to work out, then its just unlucky man.
>>16757544
Thnx for the advice, but as I said, I'm very awkward when it comes to relationships... I don't know if I could tell her what I want without sounding cringey or convincing or whatever...
>>16757562
Then what the fuck do you want from us?
Have fun regretting your choice forever because you didn't want to sound "cringey" for a second.
