The grimace is a nice touch, too.

He probly saw that the weights had 5kg stamped on them and thunk, “Damn. 5,000 pounds? THIS oughta make me look good.”

WARNING!

Don’t mess with old men.
If they’re too old to take any more beatings they will just shoot you !

Movie: Waterhole #3 (1967)

A gunfighter calls James Coburn out into the street for a showdown.
Knowing he is outclassed, Coburn walks toward the street.

As he passes behind his horse he slides his rifle from its scabbard,
steadies it across the saddle and nails the distant gunfighter at the other end of the street.

I remember as a kid the men of the WW2 generation. They were just a tougher breed and society in general was better for it. Not perfect but a whole lot less of mamby pansies and thin skinned types.

Some liberals are muscular. Hollywood men, etc.

Some of the meanest badasses I ever knew in the Marine Corps were not always the biggest guys.

Very often it was the smaller, stringy, wiry guys.

They are like wolverines or honey badgers.

Has Congresswoman DeLaro ‘always been’ a woman?
I mean since after the age of 18.

You never see Socialist Alpha Male.

If Socialism had existed In the days of the caveman, humanity would have died out.

Wrong!

They have neither the depth, the warmth nor the usefulness.

I was always the tallest in any grade, and it was always the smallest kid who would bully me.

5’18” now in case you’re wondering.

I’ve been saying for months, “they all look alike.” Liberal men: skinny necks, thinning hair, washed out faces, receding chins, skinny lips, black-rimmed glasses, just... the kind of guys even I could take out, as long as I got them by surprise. Which wouldn’t be difficult.

My step dad is 5'6", 130 lbs. Did 2 tours in Vietnam in the Marines. Quiet guy, great sense of humor... could kill you with one hand, I am convinced. Love him!

I used to mock the urban myth that widespread use of the birth control pill resulted in a buildup of estrogen in the water supply as wastewater was reclaimed and treated.

But the number of pencil necked men, lisps, effeminate accents and high pitched voices especially among the young has me wondering.
