There is a long discussion about whether Stallman asking women out constituted harassment. I have to say, I am on Stallman's side here. It's not like he was in a position of power over any of the people he asked out. He might be a weird dude, but he ought to be allowed to ask women on dates.

According to coriordan, though, none of his advances worked out. He seems to imply that RMS was an incel for 15 years.

I remember collecting him from an airport, around 2004, and he asked me if I knew any women that might be interested in him. I laughed it off because it was an unusual question, but then I realised that he's lonely and he knows women aren't going to just throw themselves at him. Time's not on your side when you're 52 (in 2004), constantly travelling, and lacking a social skill. Fifteen years later, his lack of success has proven he was right that finding a sweetheart (his word) was going to be difficult.

1) Shave every goddamned morning and cut your hair/fingernails short. Trade in those glasses for contacts if you possibly can. Trust me.

2) Shower every morning as well - why do you need to be told this?

3) When you shower, always shampoo and soap down your entire body including your well-used and purple anal crevice. For God's sake you shouldn't need to be told this with most of you seemingly advancing past 25, but judging from the LAN party I was just at the scent of which would best be described as 'raw human sewage', >70% of gamers still haven't figured this out on your own. Use more deodorant than you think is necessary, and do not use 'musk' - you've got enough of that naturally.

4) If you find yourself with even a bit of pudge anywhere on your body (can you grip or see any flab on your stomach?), start doing as many situps and pushups as you can before that shower (so the sweat gets washed off) and before you go to bed every goddamned day. How many? Do as many of each as you can until you literally cannot do another one no matter how hard you try.

5) Eat less - I don't care who you are or if you're on hunger strike or if you look like Calista Flockhart in her skeletal phase. You are eating too much right now, I promise you.

Lastly, but most certainly not least:

6) BRUSH YOUR GODDAMNED TEETH 3 TIMES A DAY. IF YOU SNACK, EAT A GODDAMNED BREATH MINT AFTERWARDS. JESUS CHRIST WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?
