I'm sure you have......they come in all shapes and sizes. Someone that is just hating on you for no reason.....likely driven by jealousy of some sort. Like your neighbor when you were a kid who stole your football when it landed in his yard.....ruining your fun for no reason.

:laugh:
Hatred can sometimes be driven by jealousy, but it is weak-minded ego-stroking nonsense to claim that this is always the case. Having no tolerance for the immature antics of man-children does not make me lower than them; quite the opposite. It's pretty hard to be jealous of someone who is beneath you, the term for this emotion is scorn.

The funny thing is that it sounds like the people mentioned in the OP were bigger douchebags than you, because they actually tried to join in to the childish game and lost. Me, I don't play.
 
I would try to be sympathetic but dude, you just referred to yourself as a player. The first rule of Player Club is you do not refer to yourself as a player.

HULKAMANIA!!!

OP, you have to admit that most of us won't be able to relate.

That said, I do remember one time in college, a band was playing a show on campus, can't remember their name but they were mostly backup musicians for Outkast. Guess their race. After the show some of them were hanging around the 'party central' part of campus (which I found kinda creepy). Anyway I was leaning against a fence and chatting up this gorgeous freshman girl. She's black, I'm white. She had her back to them, but I could see them giving us some looks. At least nothing came of it.

I don't get this PhD = douchebag logic that you have.

Are you just eternally pissed that you suck at the school thing, and overcompensate with velux jackets, snazzy pants, too much cologne and shit in your hair?
Just hatin' on a large class of people that actually sacrifice a lot their personal time to (hopefully) make the world a better place for everyone else?

your missing something here......its PHD not PhD . I have nothing against PhD's. I know several as well...in fact last night my wing was PhD candidate from Yale. But the player hating dickheads have got to go.

EDIT; and to address your schooling comment. I'm a college graduate and I'm quite content spending my time making money these days rather than sitting in a library. A personal choice that may change in the future but for now to me......I know everything I need to know to make money in this world.

so how much *DO* you make, mr playa?

I'm still very confused.

You know the owners.
The guy that was getting mad at you claimed to run the club....
Bouncers came and tossed you out.

So how is it that you know the owners and got tossed? Drop some names at the bouncers and say you'd like to talk to the owner(s) or at least have the bouncer talk to him/them and then see if you should still be tossed. Not an unreasonable thing to do.


Since Iceburg is on a weeks vacation we may never get answers.

not looking for commentary just your encounters with PHDs

You're used to getting flamed, aren't you? You're always so cool-headed with your responses.

I may not care much for what this guy posts, but I have to give him credit for not reacting like an asshole and fueling flames that way. Someone's got to keep their cool.

Last night there was the annual singles party in hartford known as the meet market. It is a pretty popular event heavily publicized on a popular radio station. Basically the men are the meat and they get a number and there is menu with every guys brief bio and the number they are. The girls basically are aggressive and the tables are turned for one night so its pretty cool.

So I put on my flyest outfit Kenneth kole shoes, seven jeans, a designer shirt with a black velour? Calvin Klein blazer. I was looking like money in the fvcking bank.

The party was poppin and I'm rockin out on the dance floor. Girls everywhere 2 to 1 ratio.

Next thing I know a PHD mofo comes up to me and starts bitching something like I was talking to his girlfriend...I don't know what the hell this guy is talking about. I'm like nah dude it wasn't me. He's got his friend with him as back up. He's like I run this club blah blah blah stay away from her. yada yada yada. We exchange words and he and his buddy walk off.

2 minutes later Im surrounded by security and am asked to leave. None of the bouncers know why they just say I have to go.

I know why.....that crybaby Player hating dickhead got me tossed. He had me 2 on 1 but wasn't trying to do anything so he got security on me. What a fucking bitch. Ruined a perfectly good night.


Tell me your experiences with PHDs........



lol you're such a douche

He said he "knows" the owners - he didn't say they are friends. A playa like Ice wouldn't let himself get tossed out if he thought the owners would back him up. He'd have gone for the power play, to get the other guy tossed instead.

As soon as I read the original post, that is what I thought. I live in Colorado and the other day I was buying gas and what pulls up in the next aisle, a freakin guido. Scary stuff.....

Probably an imitation guido, not that many Italians make it out to Colorado, do they?
 
Iceberg you're starting to come off like an even lamer version of Ryan Sangera. And trust me, that's a tough feat to accomplish.
