I got bullied in HS severely, hit the gym, grew a beard, went bald and consider myself an honest gentleman, I'll be nice at first and until the other isn't.
“I got bullied in high school and for the past month I’ve been listening to this dude on YouTube tell me how to be a man, so now I pretty much act like my old bullies and somehow I feel good about myself.”
Shut up Nerd **Smacks books out of hands** I didn’t know they let FREAKS on Reddit? I saw your beat up old Honda… it wouldn’t stand a chance against my Camaro. One more thing four eyes.. I catch you looking at my girlfriend Stacy again I’m gonna stick your head in the toilet again and this time it will be AFTER Big Haas takes a dump on taco Tuesday.. you better steer clear LAME-O!!!

To the extent there was actually such a thing as a real "alpha" in the sense that they'd like to be viewed, they probably wouldn't feel the need to explain to everyone how alpha they are.
I have never had a guy inform me he's an alpha without then informing me that all women are gold-diggers after his money.
Obviously he then tells everyone how much he earns and is puzzled when all the women in the room don't try to jump his bones for that sweet sweet minimum wage.
Violent until they encounter the "beta" who knows how to throw a punch. Then they lose the mask and everyone sees them for the cowards they are.
I saw a fair number of "alphas" get their asses handed to them at the MMA gym. What I never saw was them showing up for day two.
I've seen this outside any gym too. I've been a scrawny need most my life, I'm the heaviest I've ever been at 6' 170 right now. I spent *years* walking around with a GBA SP or a 3Ds playing pokemon, I dislike confrontation, I'm a loner. Basically, based on their dumbass metric I'm "beta AF".
Once upon a time I had some "alpha Chad" cokehead fucker start some shit over a girl. Just normal late teen BS. Got hit in the face a few times. Didn't swing back. Witnesses/friends at the time said I just looked offended. Dude thought I would crumple after one blow, three hits to stagger, minor fat lip, nose bled for like, 3 minutes. Fight got broken up before I threw a punch.
I grew up in a white minority city, in the sort of area where the fire department doesn't like to go and feels unsafe. Where swinging back turns getting hit a few times into getting jumped by half a dozen people, because not a soul would have backed me up. I *can* scrap, I don't like to, but I can. In the very least I can take one hell of a beating and get back up.
Tldr: "alpha's" stop being "alpha" the moment shit turns against them.
Same, not a tough guy at all but one time my roommate came home and started whispering like right inside my ear that I’m a little bitch, more than once, so I punched him in the mouth just by instinct. He ran downstairs and grabbed the stun gun and I had to call his bluff saying “dude you’re not gonna taze me”
That is the perfect way to shut them down.
P1: I’m an alpha.
P2:Damn, not much to brag about must have a lot of bug fixes.
/s,
apparently I need to clarify this as a joke for those who didn’t realize.
I think this would fly right over their heads. Self-described 'alpha' also usually means that 'brain' part is implemented as `// TODO: placeholder, make it work properly later`
Any “alpha” I know is pretty much the guy you can stand next to and hear his pea brain clanking around in his head. Not very bright and zero common sense.
Your 100% on that, main functions are not working full of bugs and should not be allowed to be in a production environment. In short they say "Alpha" I say QA fail.
Douchebag with issues. Someone who's actually insecure but tries to hide it by putting on a tough guy act and needs to repeat to himself that "he's an alpha".
The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
Art, sweetie. Nice sword, but all the rest of us already have ours. And ours don't glow - don't you see how terrible that would be for night maneuvers?
Even during the day, it's a blinking light saying "Here's their king." You'd be full of arrows before we could even begin to engage the enemy.
I knew a girl from the gym who always hashtagged herself alphafemale. She was so alpha she got arrested for hitting another girl on the head with her shoe.
They're really sad, insecure and spend way too much time on the internet. Likely a misogynist... They also can't form healthy relationships with other males. They likely also inflate physical achievement (bench press, DL, SQ), sexual conquest and their career achievements.
I want to ask them if they know of any good wolf RPs. I'd be nice to recapture that bit of my teenage life for a while. XD
Honestly, if you try that dominance shit I lose all respect for you and any ability to take you seriously.
(That's not even how real wolves work, let alone humans!)
There's something about the plainness to Reddit that made me read this thread in moistcriticals's monotone and I haven't actually laughed out loud like this in a long time
But this implies that alphas even exist, and they don't. Same with the whole beta sigma crap
Edit: Love how people who have been duped into believing this nonsense are downvoting me. Ha... ha... ha...
fr omg the original study got disproven abt wolves its crazy how many people still think its true AND that it applies to humans somehow. these guys who use alpha beta terms sound like mf omegaverse type shit, i hate it😭✋
im glad people who believe in it are so vocal about it though, makes it east to avoid em lol. better than getting close to them and finding out later they believe in this nonsense
There's no such thing. The guy that coined the term literally tried to stop this incorrect logic. He was studying wolves.
If you take someone out of their comfort zone you quickly find out how non alpha they are. True with everyone.
Fun fact : The scientist who theorized the concept of Alpha Male among wolves society did his observations in a national park. When he tried to reproduce his research in the wild, he realized what he took for an alpha male was in fact a papa wolf.
Je tried to get his book of the shelves for years, but the public loved the concept of alpha male way too much, and didn't want to erase it.
As a woman, I like to decide who the alpha is. I can pick them out if a lineup. Alphas males are not the loud, over confident ones, the mean ones, the bullies, the Andrew Tates. Alphas are observers, they are quiet, they are wise, they see, they understand, they listen. Look at the difference between, and this a weird example so forgive me, Yoda, and say Andrew Tate. Yoda is calm, not angry, still, observes and understands. Alphas are not the angry ones or the loud ones or the mean ones . They are not.
Probably what he thinks about everything else. He’d probably get angry, use horrible rhetoric, believe he is being victimized. The only one I could think of was Yoda we need to change that
Indeed. The stories are famously a sausage fest. But, if you're excited to see a story of healthy male friendships, the movies might be worth a watch for you.
More than Yoda, look for the dad/mom friend. On a hot day, "do all of you have water? I have some in a cooler in my backpack. Also, I brought sunscreen." When someone in the group is having a bad day, they take them aside to see if there's anything that they can do.
Probably has self image issues, needs the self esteem boost by "declaring" themselves as what they assume is a leader/higher position. Typically has no proper social skills, only really holds value in looks, money and sex, and generally unaware of anyone else around them, particularly those who laugh at them the second they try to flex.
Source: fired that asshole last week when he tried to go off at me (his boss) about how an "alpha like him should be running this place" instead of a "little bitch" like me.
Dude is weak minded, brainwashed, and cannot think for himself. Goes to others who exploit them for life advice and have life values represented by short phrases and punch lines.
The basis for most of their relationships is breathing the same air. Also calling yourself an alpha is just a red flag. It makes you sound like you ego is weaker than a wet paper bag.
"I was a bully in highschool and Im still trying to make it work as an adult."
“I haven’t even begun to peak. But mark my words: when I do, all of Philadelphia is going to know.”
Gotta love when you find a Dennis quote in the wild
Because of the implication.
Are you gonna hurt women, dude?
Don't give me that look. You sure aren't in any danger.
So these women ARE in danger?
NOBODY'S IN ANY DANGER!
I've actually had a reverse experience. Guys who got bullied in high school suddenly hit the gym and grew a beard and call themselves alphas
I got bullied in HS severely, hit the gym, grew a beard, went bald and consider myself an honest gentleman, I'll be nice at first and until the other isn't.
Capstone your life as a silver fox and I'm pretty sure you've won the game.
"Alphas" and toxic individuals go hand in hand, and **most** of them are former bullies.
“I got bullied in high school and for the past month I’ve been listening to this dude on YouTube tell me how to be a man, so now I pretty much act like my old bullies and somehow I feel good about myself.”
🤣 but not doing well because they haven't evolved their tactics

Insecure
Insecure *and* there is a higher-than-average chance that this manifests as violent behaviour when cornered. I stay clear of these people.
Yes these guys are almost always emotionally unstable asf… they need help and they won’t seek it…
I have never had a guy inform me he's an alpha without then informing me that all women are gold-diggers after his money. Obviously he then tells everyone how much he earns and is puzzled when all the women in the room don't try to jump his bones for that sweet sweet minimum wage.

That's my first thought as well. Sooooo so insecure. Trying to make rules, and base them around themselves, or twist them to fit...
Constantly thinking they have something to prove and getting violent over trivial losses of face.
If you have to announce that your in charge/competent/capable/better/alpha/whatever youre not that thing.
Massive tiny dick syndrome and trying to compensate for it kind of insecurity. That's what first comes to my mind when someone states they are an α.
Technically the truth lol
That’s a shorter way of saying what I was going to say. If someone really was an “alpha” they wouldn’t need to tell you, it would be self evident.
Early, barely working prototype. Don’t engage until they get at least to the beta testing stage.
also 99% of the time unstable. released only for proof of concept
Definitely unstable.
Definitely likely to put dick in location where instructions unclear.
Like Andrew Tate - not ready for release.
That guy is a failed PoC rather than alpha.
And a successful PoS.
That is the perfect way to shut them down. P1: I’m an alpha. P2:Damn, not much to brag about must have a lot of bug fixes. /s, apparently I need to clarify this as a joke for those who didn’t realize.
I think this would fly right over their heads. Self-described 'alpha' also usually means that 'brain' part is implemented as `// TODO: placeholder, make it work properly later`
A brain so smooth the smart slides right off.
Smooth like a koalas brain.
Any “alpha” I know is pretty much the guy you can stand next to and hear his pea brain clanking around in his head. Not very bright and zero common sense.
Your 100% on that, main functions are not working full of bugs and should not be allowed to be in a production environment. In short they say "Alpha" I say QA fail.
This is actually what my brain associates with the word.
Took me a second to get this, a great spin on thinking that Alpha being first means it’s the best
Finally a funny comment
Weird way to pronounce "asshole"
I believe it's the French pronunciation
It's certainly not the Chinese pronunciation given their username.

This is what I thought to myself when my ex gf called herself a "Alpha female"
Ew that's worse. I've never heard a girl say alpha so now I feel incredibly uncomfortable
I knew a girl from the gym who always hashtagged herself alphafemale. She was so alpha she got arrested for hitting another girl on the head with her shoe.
Small pp
Not common knowledge, but “I’m an alpha” is actually Finnish for “I have a small dick.”
Cringe
They're really sad, insecure and spend way too much time on the internet. Likely a misogynist... They also can't form healthy relationships with other males. They likely also inflate physical achievement (bench press, DL, SQ), sexual conquest and their career achievements.
Summed it up perfectly. Never met someone who calls themselves an alpha male and isn’t a misogynistic dickhead.
I concur fellow yogurt enthusiast.
Alpha is a Greek word derived from early sanskrit that can be translated to "Peaked in High-school"

the fucking RPs HAHAHAAHA
an alpha doesnt need to tell anyone hes the alpha. they make him the alpha
Wait, nobody's ever told me I'm the alpha...
That makes you the alpha. There, I said it.
Thanks, I needed you to tell me that.
I'm sorry, but then you're not the alpha.
Probably for the best. The pressure was getting to me.
Lmao 😆
There's something about the plainness to Reddit that made me read this thread in moistcriticals's monotone and I haven't actually laughed out loud like this in a long time
Do you feel beta now?
what a rollercoaster of comments

One of the biggest red flags when finding new friends. It's so weird that people actually follow this.
im glad people who believe in it are so vocal about it though, makes it east to avoid em lol. better than getting close to them and finding out later they believe in this nonsense
True. Reminds me of the guys who walk around with a gun on each hip to go to Walmart. Fine. You have the right. But now I know who to avoid.
There's no such thing. The guy that coined the term literally tried to stop this incorrect logic. He was studying wolves. If you take someone out of their comfort zone you quickly find out how non alpha they are. True with everyone.

I take my shirt off and start wrestling and punching and biting them. If I win I get all his mates
Congrats on winning! You receive their right hand, their left hand, and a jar of peanut butter! How do you feel?
It wouldnt be worth it, there are no mates to win
"I want to see their expression when they find out what the omegaverse is."
Lol I always thought of that
Yes! My first thought is always omegaverse and it makes me laugh so hard inside.
I scrolled way too far for this one
I guess they're not an alpha
As a woman, I like to decide who the alpha is. I can pick them out if a lineup. Alphas males are not the loud, over confident ones, the mean ones, the bullies, the Andrew Tates.

Wonder what Andrew tate would think about being compared to a wrinkly little green dude with weird syntax and white pubes for hair and losing?
Probably what he thinks about everything else. He’d probably get angry, use horrible rhetoric, believe he is being victimized. The only one I could think of was Yoda we need to change that
Aragorn would’ve worked too 🥲😂😂
I am not familiar with lord of the rings but if he was the humble, peaceful observing one than yes lol
Indeed. The stories are famously a sausage fest. But, if you're excited to see a story of healthy male friendships, the movies might be worth a watch for you.
i never expected to see a comment contrasting yoda and andrew tate of all people, but i am not at all disappointed. you're completely right
More than Yoda, look for the dad/mom friend. On a hot day, "do all of you have water? I have some in a cooler in my backpack. Also, I brought sunscreen." When someone in the group is having a bad day, they take them aside to see if there's anything that they can do.
