"5 things society makes a big deal about that don't have to be that important" and "21 more things I love about being single and living alone."
It might be dangerous — especially for the young — to consume these 2 lists in sequence. It might be what "they" don't want you to know....

Affluenza at its zenith. I was that stupid when I was young.
The Catholic Church will be waiting for him when he turns 60.
What a predictable bore.
Who is that loser?
TADL: Too annoying, didn't listen.
He's exactly the kind of person you'd expect to order tofu, and an overcooked steak.
I wonder if this guy wants to see more alpha energy from the Democratic Party.
He's useless on the way to boredom.
So why is his opinion important? He has made himself irrelevant.
He has no purpose behind it, he is just talking…rationalizing He won’t pass it on to any children. He won’t share it with someone he worked hard with to have a good relationship. And he won’t stick with it because he will get bored with it. He also won’t be part of any community group or effort that will improve the area’s quality of life.
It doesn’t matter what it is, just do something bigger than yourself and you life is infinitely better, even if it certainly episodes within it suck.
Wasn’t Althouse a confirmed believer in singleness when I started to read this blog? I seem to remember her making multiple posts about how satisfying life is by yourself.
Did she ever explain why she got married and if she believes her previous views about being single were wrong?
The only source of dignity is doing something for somebody else.
It works for groups too. If blacks took up a collection for poor whites they'd discover the racial dignity that they've been, it turns out, withholding from themselves.
@Bill: I think she said - if I remember correctly, a dicey proposition at 73 - that it was a pair of blue eyes writing her a traffic ticket. That would be Meade.

I explained it over and over with a simple catchphrase: Better than nothing is a high standard.

LOL. There was a cop with blue eyes in the story. Meade has dark brown eyes.
Most of that is just bad advice.
I wish TikTok would embed better.
This addictive scrolling video seems to be engineered to keep you on the platform, not to let people like me break something out to examine separately.
YouTube shorts -- the platform Meade uses for his videos — is even worse. It won't give you any code for embedding. You've got to figure out how to code it yourself. I was able to do that using AI, but it's aggravating.
I think when people are old, they've already made the main life decisions and are disposed to believe what they did was what was best.
Better than even odds that both of those people have no siblings of the opposite sex, or any siblings at all, for that matter.

This old post is helpful: "The Althousity of Hope."
Then there's Napoleon. He didn't just have purpose. He had Destiny, and he convinced millions to find purpose in their lives by sharing his Destiny. Of the over 500,000 who marched with him to Moscow, only about 90,000 survived. But they had the joy of purpose driven lives and of working towards a better tomorrow......We're primarily primates. Any advance in technology is used for better weapons or for improvements in pornography delivery systems. The five or ten percent of our brain that yearns for higher, finer things only serves
And then we trail off into nada.
"...a simple catchphrase: Better than nothing is a high standard."
Here is another "It could always be worse."
Too many alpha fucks.
Anyone who says "FU capitalism" is a moron.
He's using capitalism to make that video. Communist twat.
You can be perfectly without a purpose if you can get up in the morning and not “throw your fucking phone out the window.”
Yes, he sounds very happy in his purposeless life.
shorted commie: Be a self-absorbed a-hole. check. He can do it!
I just returned home from a long trip.
the free wi-fi on the plan allowed me to watch a limited selection of movies. I finally submitted to "Barbie" . Only go t thru about 7 minutes. the beginning of the movie depicts young girls bashing the heads of life-like baby dolls. then, as the vapid Mattel barbie world rolls out, the showcase is all the various varieties of Mattel's Barbie thru the decades. Lawyer barbie, flight attendant barbie, and on... They bitterly announce they once had a pregnant Barbie, but she was promptly canceled because pregnancy is an embarrassing disgrace.
It's as if the corrupt Democratic communist left has a message to sell. This guy is selling it as well.
With AI taking over it's hard to believe that guy actually exists and isn't someone's cruel parody of effeminate males. One can get tired of striving for a purpose or finding a mate or raising children or travelling the world, but one can also get tired of just being an inert lump. Lumpiness has its pleasures but one shouldn't be so satisfied with it and so self-righteous about it. Someday, he will react against his inertness and wonder what he missed.
You should give Barbie a chance—it’s surprisingly subversive.
The hot chick needs William Shakespeare to explain to her that she shouldn't let beauty fade and die without passing it on to the next generation in the form of offspring. Nobody much cares if the complaining guy reproduces or not.
I think when people are old, they've already made the main life decisions and are disposed to believe what they did was what was best.
I have made "No Regerts" my motto now.
He seems harmless. Nothing is better than a purpose driven march to Moscow. We wait for Godot and Napoleon shows up.
tim - the barbie movie did not reel me in.. It made my stomach turn.
Isn't making the video counter to what he says. He obviously needs what he says he doesn't, or we'd never hear from him.
The best part of leftists not reproducing is leftists not reproducing.
What a tedious punk
Red meat for those who eat red meat.
Overalls lady is pretty, but would be hard to live with. Nobody's "passive aggressive or petty" with her, but the way she said it made me think she can be that way herself, and it will only get worse with time.
Her video was followed by a 34 year old lonely guy's lonely Saturday night video. It provides a great contrast or counterpoint to hers.

Look for the bunny around the corner
"The best part of leftists not reproducing is leftists not reproducing."
True, but Muslims are. It is truly hard to believe but leftist ideologies have worked to the point that Britain, frappin' Britain, is about to become an Islamic state.
People like this should never be allowed to decide how society should be shaped.
They should be free to act like hedonistic narcissistic self absorbed pieces of shit.
They should never be allowed to let the failure their evil self absorption will lead to drag society down with them.

The problem is pieces of shit like these 2 people get to vote and turn the country into Mexico.
The girl is onto some good reasons. The guy is wearing a loser cologne that you can smell through the laptop monitor. I applaud the fact he won't have children, the innocent souls will be saved from his abuse, imagine you are forced to have a father like this moron through no fault of your own. I think that the girl has learned the hard way from dating the losers like this guy to come up with all the 23 reasons she wants to remain single. I don't think she wants to be single, she has no choice, otherwise it's a #therapyjeff sleeping next to her. Oh no.
Shes not that hawt to be taken seriously
Different strokes for very different folks.
These seem like lovely people.
I think I am thankful that the volume button on those two videos has vanished for me.
“The problem is pieces of shit like these 2 people get to vote and turn the country into Mexico.“
Almost best case scenario.
I bet Britain would love to have that as one of their options.
That woman was a bigger loser than the guy! Thankfully, she'll never have kids. Me. Me. Me.
If Meade can really play a piano sonata, we want proof! YouTube video coming up next!
The Road Less Traveled
"21 more things I love about being single and living alone."
Did she mention cats?
Common, walking on eggshells, no more clanking the bowl the way she shows, passive-aggressive and petty, pooping with the door open, broken promises, guilt-tripping for resting are all really good standards to have whether alone or in a relationship.
This sort of bowl clanking can only be permitted for when Mrs. Patmore prepares her raspberry meringue pudding by hand in Downton Abbey.
“ all really good standards to have whether alone or in a relationship.”
Yes, the woman’s list works both ways. Hopefully, wives will feel relieved if their husband doesn’t do these things. The unmarried woman knows for sure she’s free of them.
I lived single for many years and I loved it for a lot of reasons, but listening to these people makes me want to hate it. One of the best things about living single is not having to put up with someone like this. As long as these videos are out there, they are safe from sharing a life.
CCP propaganda.
"No one's pressuring me to have sex"
Don't flatter yourself, toots.
"No Regerts" would make a great tattoo.
