I suspect the reason that Antiwomen is also so anti-counselling is because he's in such obviously dire need of it - but has no hope of it helping him with his personality problems because he refuses to acknowledge that he has any.

Another likely possibility is that his ex-wife was empowered enough by some form of counselling to leave him to his own miserable company.

On the basis of the often quite viciously insensitive attacks he makes on others (mostly women) here at OLO, I'd agree that he'd be the last person who should counsel children about anything.

This thread is so shallow it wouldn't drown an ant. Are we saying that if this guy continued doing everything the same apart from wearing a more expensive suit in his 9-6 grind then he'd be a higher worth individual? Perhaps he goes shopping for clothes and asks himself whether an extra $500 should be spent on the suit or on his kids xmas presents, or their education, or a holiday, or something else of more practical value. When I started out in suits I wore CK and YSL, they wore out and became worthless in the same time as a cheaper version, and don't look a whole lot different. If you're making suits such a priority you're probably lacking elsewhere.

ah but you decided, none the less, to get your feet wet.

Wearing a suit makes no difference there, as anyone who wears a suit could tell you -

We do not wear suits to "enhance our worth" but to demonstrate it.

I have to buy a new dinner suit (the last one was ceremonially burnt by a previous and particulalry toxic "Mrs CR" who took delight in exercising her billious whims) I am shopping around and also have slimmed down to a point I can actually wear single and double breasted suits which would not previously transverse my girth... just one of the rewards of dancing. For which one of the other rewards comes in the form of my dance partner but thats another tale....

as for YSL and CK.. well whatever you pay for their rags, you can still find examples of the same cutter and seamstress work in the specials of DFO under any number of labels.. its a bit like buying a Holden Barina.. you are just spending extra on the badge, not the garment or the car

and of course.. what really matter is not the car but how you drive it.....

just as the suit does not make the man but it is the man who makes the suit.

You don't like group hugs Pied? :)

Come on you guys - for Houlley this is like fish in a barrel stuff.

Hey settle down about the cruelty to ants bit.

Have you considered "it's so shallow that even an amoeba doesn't need gum boots?"

Or perhaps I've seen more depth in tracks on computer chips ?
