An irritant.
Post by Christopher The Harley Man on Mar 30, 2006, 7:07pm
I’m sitting here in my home office, minding my own business. I’m single, and I have no honey-do lists to flare my ‘roids. I do what I want. I’m alone and happy.
So, I did what I like to occasionally do in my spare time. I check out the forums. I read through this one and had my fill, so I shot over to www.hdforums.com, where I like to get the latest info about my beloved Harley’s.
Since one of my Harley’s is a Softail, I scrolled down to that forum. What did I find? A thread titled “House or Harley (Fatboy)” started by a guy calling himself Indy Fatboy. It seems that he is getting divorced, and figures he can’t afford to keep both the bike and the house. Some of the advice he gets is amusing, including “don’t get married again”.
I can’t count the number of times I have read in the motorcycle want ads in my local paper where the Harley is being “sold due to divorce”, or “wife forces sale”, or “baby on way”.
Christ.
What is happening anymore…..

Why sell the Harley when the baby is on the way?
Because women are dream killers. Once they breed, they become even more risk adverse.
She doesn’t want to risk losing her income if you fall off the Harley.

Um, you can’t carry an infant/child on a motorcycle. State law almost anywhere in the US. And a wife qualifies as a child.

Young Men, make sure this is indelibly sketched in your mind.

Yes, women are dream killers.
In the past a man was a WHOLE man, but could become a complete family with a woman.
Since women today are piles of shit, who cannot cook, clean, raise children, or do a damn thing, they HURT men far more than they help.
Today a man is a whole man when single, and an injured, destroyed man when with a USA shit woman.
Stay single, stay smart.

That may be your opinion and mine. However, it is not the opinion of 95% of the population.

I like the term “life-blockers.”
When I used to live with my ex girlfriend, it literally felt like she was blocking my life. Like I wanted to do things, achieve things, create things and she was…just blocking me.
Image playing basketball and trying to take a jump shot. A real important one. Now imagine someone up all in your face, jumping up, trying to block your every shot. Every damned one. That’s what it felt like…like she was blocking my shots at life. Like she wasn’t on my side, but in effect, playing for the other team.
Like I had a thousand challenges in my face and when I came home, I had another one, a brutal one, that was tougher than anything I was facing at work (and believe me, thats pretty tough).
Dream-killers.
Life-blockers.
Any other terms come to mind to describe all too many of them? (even if they are not poorly intentioned, and don’t MEAN to be such life blockers…)

Dream-Killers. What did you want to be when you were a kid? Your hopes, aspirations and quest for success in any endeavor you choose are likely stymied by AW’s wishing to thwart you, lest you upgrade to a “newer model” awash in the spoils of success/hard work instead of supporting you. She last-ditch effort defers and hail mary’s to the legal system to “fix your wagon for hurting me, mister”. The cycle repeats ad-nauseum as you achieve more on the success ladder. Look at Any entertainer or successful businessman and the dearth of those still on their first wives.

Amen. You don’t even have to live with her for this effect to take hold. When I last had a girlfriend I was more or less required to at least call her every night if I wasn’t actually spending time with her that night. I have lots of dreams and interests and there are tons of things I like to do when I’m not at work. But having to talk to her every single night after work just sucked any ambition from me.

Jeez Morph, a 3-minute nightly phone call to touch base and let her blab? Must have been horrible in your case and sounds like you just tolerated your “ambition-sucker”.

I doubt it ever lasted less than 1/2 hour. If I tried to end the conversation earlier, it was guilt, guilt, guilt that only dragged out the time. Since I didn’t have the spine to stand up for myself, I just took it.
Things have changed a bit now, of course. I don’t want anything to do with a woman who needs that much time and attention.

I believe Oscar Wilde said “Women inspire us to create great works and then distract us from carrying them out.”
I would add that we create great works to get money in order to have access to their vagina. We then create more works to get more money in the hope that it will stop the bitching that we don’t make enough money (It doesn’t).
Funny, I notice that since I removed women from my life I always have plenty of money and I create whetever works I feel like.

Permit me once again to quote the great poet Testiclies:
Men’s work should be pursued for its own sake
and never to impress potential mates!
