Passive Aggressive behaviour

I work in academia so I rarely have to deal with this shit. Most guys are DYEL as hell and there's virtually no physical posturing at all. I have noticed guys tend to take you less intellectually seriously if you lift though.
I was back in my home town over Christmas and had to experience enough passive aggressive bullshit down the pub that I've had to conclude I live in a bubble. People intentionally blocking my way or trying to stand in front of me at the bar and move to block me etc. Almost feel sorry for them, imagine getting your validation from stuff like that.

>look at them confused

You can take it one step further by just asking them what they are doing. They tend to change tack pretty quickly when they realise they can't rationalise their behaviour

Swing till they drop

This started happening to me after juicing and getting swole. When youre tall and look like you lift, you become a target to insecure men around you. It blew my mind and kind of sucks.

Don’t take these passive aggressive shit tests so seriously. If you get thrown off your center than you’re doing exactly what they want. Just fire back with lighthearted banter.

What the fuck.
People just assume you are retarded if you lift weights.

Immaculate post

based and redpilled user, despite all the claims of many that we have to ubermog and put down people to push ourselves up, we
should practice a minimum level of restraint and civility but not to the point of weak pacifism
