i'll start. i saw a ask reddit post saying something along the lines of "men of reddit whats something women can't understand" and the comments were just. oh my god. the main one that made me want to puke was "when dudes walk by each other and nod" and the whole fucking thread was just fedoras with arms soypogging like it was some secret language or something. "when you nod upwards, it means respect!!!!!1!!11 when you nod downwards its aggression!!!1!11!!!!!" as if women dont do the same shit.

do you guys have something similar to share?

Back when Fox news did a piece claiming there were Muslim enforced "no go zones" in various UK cities and suddenly every American was an expert on what it was like to walk around these cities.

I had an extended argument with this one guy who insisted he knew more about the place I was living and studying in at the time than I did.

Like, unparalleled levels of smug condescension.
