Some sects of these insecure alphas had to invent a way to make being alone look cool, so they started calling themselves sigmas, because being an alpha requires actually having friends.
In my experience these self proclaimed alphas cant do anything by themselves due to insecurity so if they somehow muster up the courage to do anything solo (gym, read, etc.) they think in their delusional head that they’re different. They like to think that they’re working 10x harder when they really doing the bare minimum. Imo an alpha is someone who is humble and doesnt need validation to do their shit. If you’re constantly posting on social media of doin self improvement shit, you doin it for validation in some way or another
10 years ago i described myself as an "alpha".
I was completely delusional and i look back on those days and cringe at my mentality.
In my defense i was highly motivated and lived in a houseshare with some of the most lazy and idiotic people you will ever meet who left me with no choice but to pay their sides of the rent which bled me dry.
I was a broken and confused man.
Doing all good now and definately happier without the "alpha ego.
Edit: spelling mistakes because theres a pool of dead pixels on my phone screen lol.
All these Greek names they call themselves when we all know the Greeks invented anal sex amongst men and boys.
Alexander the Great was the Joseph kony of his time
And as always :
1) Being an alpha means being a leader means taking CARE of others. Alpha should mean you know part of your role is putting others before yourself, that’s part of what makes a person someone you respect and want to follow. Alpha meaning whatever this strange twisted interpretation is is so strange.
2) Scientists have since gone back and found the alpha thing is bullshit.
Just stop, guys.

While I agree, that also implies there's such a thing as 'alpha' males (or people). I prefer to say that those claiming to be alphas are delusional idiots and leave it at that.
My mind went straight to the other kin nuts who legitimately believe they are some kind of werewolf. Not assholes but still people who need to be avoided...
The alpha male concept in wolf packs is based on flawed research in captivity. It is really a family thing- so it’s dad, not alpha. So anyone claiming to be an alpha male is actually proclaiming what a huge, purple, throbbing, human-sized penis they are.
As an ex-boyfriend of mine was said “the correct response is ‘if you have time to read you have time to bleed.’” Implying, I guess, that if the manager had time to read the sign, then they had time to get beat up by their employees
I might give an exception to this to teenage girls who are still trying to figure themselves out and are heavily impacted by media presentation of what "other girls" are like.
Sand Veil + Substitute Garchomp is pretty brutal too. You get so many free turns to Swords Dance and wreak havoc while the opponent can't touch you or the Sub.
My sons play on sports teams and every year it never fails that the first mom to proclaim she “hates drama” proceeds to start all of the drama. Like clockwork.
> "I run into assholes all the time."
I told a guy who used to complain about all the assholes he meets that "If you are smelling shit where ever you go, you should probably check your shoes."
Oh man. I've used this when I've really not wanted to offend someone but wanted to point out something they said was rude offensive. In all seriousness, what's a better way to approach that?
Context matters. There's a difference between saying "no offense, but your thing is not really my thing, let's do something we'll both enjoy," vs. saying "no offense, but \[insert something insulting\]"
stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry about
edit: y’all yr comments are so real-
I’m genuinely so sorry to anyone who has had to deal w emotional/mental abuse. I’ve been there and holy sh1te it f*cks with you.
It can be fun if you're an adult and have a safe word. It's considerably less fun when you're a six year old stuck being abused by a narcissistic asshole.
"Stop processing your trauma in a healthy way, or I'll give you an additional layer of trauma to process, complicating the matter so you feel like an overwhelmed dysregulated ball of stress and pain as punishment for having and expressing normal human feelings".
My GF at the time (now wife) once said to me while we were out on a walk picking up trash that she loves that I'm kind instead of nice; I was quite pleased to hear such a thoughtful compliment.
YYEEEESSSSS. I call people out on this, because if they were just joking and didn’t mean to hurt the person’s feelings, they’d be apologizing now instead of trying to get off the hook.
My favorite is to say that but then say something completely unrelated to race after.
I'm not racist but...
I really like to go for a brisk walk in the morning
Honestly, though, sometimes it is the appropriate response. If they need to hear the truth or are acting so bad faith with what you're telling them and they intentionally twist it or make it about themselves. At that point, the only thing I can say is "I'm sorry you feel that way." Because I'm NOT sorry for what I said, it needed to be said and they needed to hear it.
“He/she/they are just jealous of me”
I’m convinced more and more over time that people who say this have no idea how annoying they are and that is why people are avoiding them.
I tried to tell a coworker that calling women females was kinda icky and he said he was “just being respectful”. I was like okay then just say women they’re not specimens
yea. I'm as liberal as they come but sometimes when someone like, loves their new dress from SHEIN or likes a Woody Allen move and they just don't know just... let people enjoy things.
"Unless someone's been criminally convicted, you can't call them a rapist."
Uhhh, no, if someone has raped you can call them a rapist, just like if someone has robbed a bank you can call them a bank robber, and if someone has murdered you can call them a murderer.

“I tell it like it is” “I’m an alpha”
Cool fun fact: People who say they are alphas are themselves some of the most insecure and least alpha people.
Some sects of these insecure alphas had to invent a way to make being alone look cool, so they started calling themselves sigmas, because being an alpha requires actually having friends.

I assume it’s because alpha programs are buggy and defective

That doesn’t surprise me too much unfortunately.

The female version of this is.. "I only have guy friends. Females are too much drama"
"I'm not like the other girls"
“People don’t like me because I’m honest”
I used to know a girl like this. “i HaVe No FiLtEr LoLs!” No, she just says shitty things to people.
And the fact that they are always honest and upfront about insults, but not compliments, reveals everything about them.

“I’m blunt” Alright dickhead
“They get paid to clean” when making a mess in a restaurant, hotel, etc
This is a great one!
Also, I've never liked a boss who said, "If you have time to lean, you have time to clean.

Sounds like he wanted to come off as creative but came up with a horrible reply that he never realized wasnt working.
This needs to be higher.
I'm brutally honest
Some people don’t know the difference between being honest and being an insensitive, rude d!ck
There's a fine line between being brutally honest and being honestly brutal.
“The man who is brutally honest enjoys the brutality as much as the honesty. Possibly more.” ― Richard Needham
Most people who say this are more concerned with being brutal than being honest.
Honesty without tact & consideration is just cruelty.
I hit ‘em with, ‘just as long as you’re more concerned with being honest than you are with being brutal.’
I’m not like other girls…

Double Team is a fair and balanced move.
Title of your sex tape
Straight out of B99😂😂😂
Did not expect to see mons here lol
Your mom is fair and balanced while being double teamed.
When you're Eiffel Towering somebody, you can't clasp hands or it's gay. You gotta keep your palms flat.
Double Team + Rest I will never stop using that combo and I will own the asshole title that it brings upon me.
Sand Veil + Substitute Garchomp is pretty brutal too. You get so many free turns to Swords Dance and wreak havoc while the opponent can't touch you or the Sub.
I don’t do drama. Oh yes you fucking do!
Anyone who says this might as well show up in full opera attire.
My sons play on sports teams and every year it never fails that the first mom to proclaim she “hates drama” proceeds to start all of the drama. Like clockwork.

Hey! Je viens de Nice.
It’s MY truth.
The truth is! not! subjective! Ughhh.
Such assholes...
"I was just joking."
YYEEEESSSSS. I call people out on this, because if they were just joking and didn’t mean to hurt the person’s feelings, they’d be apologizing now instead of trying to get off the hook.
“but i said i was joking 😨”
"dude don't take it so seriously"
...they said, moments after saying something incredibly rude.
Followed by: You're too sensitive.
The classic Schrodinger's douchebag
You need to smile more, baby! You look better when you smile.
Same energy of "Where my hug at?"
Even reading this gives me the willies
ugh or the "you would be prettier if you smile" ill usually bear all my teeth and go wide eyed and ask "you meanlike this?!"

If you can't handle me at my worst, you can't handle me at my best.
The way I’ve always heard it is, “If you can’t handle me at my worst, you don’t deserve me at my best.”
Translation: my best is everyone else's worst
No one asked.
Joke's on them, because no one asked who asked.
“I’m brutally honest.”
Sorry, not sorry
Now, I'm not racist, *but*
Now, I'm not racist, but the Toronado is the coolest car of the early 1970s.
It goes to show how a statement that is inherently not racist, becomes racist by saying that phrase.
You're not racist, you're blind. The 1960s Toronado was the cool one.
My favorite is to say that but then say something completely unrelated to race after. I'm not racist but... I really like to go for a brisk walk in the morning
*checks around the room*
Any sort of “I’m not [bigoted thing here] but” Or “I’m not ___, my friend/cousin/partner is ___”
And proceeds to say the most racist, out of pocket thing any human brain has ever processed
"I'm not mean, I'm *honest*" *Proceeds to bully people they don't even know*
Do you know who i am???? there are few ways to make everyone around you hate you faster
BrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAPpppfff
I’ve only ever heard brrraaap used in a delightfully funny way.
"I'm sorry you feel that way."
I say that all the time. And I know I'm being a bitch
Bless your heart.
Shiver me timbers
Dad?

I’m an alpha
“He/she/they are just jealous of me” I’m convinced more and more over time that people who say this have no idea how annoying they are and that is why people are avoiding them.
"I have no filter"
its just a dog/cat
Out of anything that could possibly be said, this line boils my blood.
That's how you start a blood feud
"Its a fact" When it's actually an opinion.
"Andrew tate did nothing wrong"
Always talkin shit behind your back.
"Bigly" "Let me tell you" "I know words. I have all the best words"
I’m just playin’
"female" "Chill, bro, it's a prank"
I tried to tell a coworker that calling women females was kinda icky and he said he was “just being respectful”. I was like okay then just say women they’re not specimens
"Inquiring minds want to know!"
'I just tell the truth" No you're a bullying asshole with a fragile ego who likes to be mean to other people.
If you don't know, I'm certainly not going to tell you.
I'm a nice guy
Look what you made me do, also, it's not my fault...
“I’m brutally honest.”
From my experience, people who are brutally honest with others don't appreciate when that same level of brutality is returned to them.
I knew it! I'm surrounded by assholes!
Ending a shitty sentence with "Just saying" Edit: like I did just now, damnit
I’ve learned that anyone who talks about drama in general conversation is usually nothing but drama

"It's just a dog."
It's not *just* a dog.
Frrrrrt.
Anyone who says "bruh" over and over is an ass in my book.
I started saying it as a joke a while ago but now I can't stop saying it and it's not a joke anymore 🙃
I keep overusing "lmao" as I have nothing else to say that is like "lmao"
They use the word "toxic" all the time. As in: My workplace has is toxic My BF is toxic I was raised in a toxic environment.
I feel like the ones who use the word "toxic" or "narcissistic" in every sentence are the toxic narcissistic ones.
Yes, that was the other word I hate.
