USMB Male Folk: Alpha vs. Beta quiz

[WinterBorn]

Your definition of liberal is very different from mine.

I go by the actual definition. Not the definition that got raped by regressive bedwetters.

And what definition is that?

small govt. individual freedom. 2nd amendment. private property. actual progress. actual equality.

And I have argued in favor of all of those over and over.

thats why i said you sound like a true liberal lol

So it was sarcasm? Ok. My mistake.

 

[Meathead]

And why do you think you can be so sure? Do you know me?

This is just another example of the mistaken idea that being an asshole is the same as being a leader. It isn't.

Since you seem to be white and liberal, it's not much of a stretch.

What makes you decide that I am a liberal? My support of the 2nd amendment? My desire for smaller gov't, serious tax reform and more freedom? Come on, if you want to call someone a liberal, at least be able to say why.

That sounds like a true liberal!

His sig pretty much give it away.

My sig calls for people to walk the walk, not just talk the talk. It refers to those pretend Christians who talk a good game, but lie, steal, cheat and more. Now if you that is acceptable, fine by me. I don't care for it. I think living a life that can be seen as an example for others is far more important than continually yelling for others to live as you claim to believe.

But that is just me.

"Before you speak to me about your religion, first show it to me in how you treat other people; before you tell me how much you love your God, show me in how much you love all His children; before you preach to me of your passion for your faith, teach me about it through your compassion for your neighbors. In the end, I'm not as interested in what you have to tell or sell as in how you choose to live and give." Cory Booker

No, your sig is one of unlimited entitlement, and gay to boot.

Off topic..... sorry.
But on signatures.... is there a better rule now here about the size and length of them than use to be?
I have had signatures turned off a long time ago due to a handful of idiots with practically paragraphs for signatures including moving Gifs.

Unlimited entitlement? LMAO!! That is hilarious. And absolute bullshit. That you think just spouting words should be the measure of something is laughable.

But, for the sake of argument, exactly what do you claim I am demanding that I am entitled to?

Absolutely not. If talking a good game and not living that way is what you call a "real Christian", then you need to reread the Bible.

My sig says absolutely nothing negative about Christians. It ridicules those who pretend to Christianity while doing as they please.

Nobody owes you anything. Nobody has to justify anything to you. Finally, nobody cares if you're gay.

The Entitlement of telling other people what they are able to talk about.

It is telling people about what to do if they want me to pay attention. The last line says it. "In the end, I'm not as interested in what you have to tell or sell as in how you choose to live and give." You can say whatever it is you want. And I can listen to whatever I want.

Explaining why I am not listening is not telling you that you cannot speak.

Interesting quiz.

I can lead or follow. But if the leader sux then I will go my own road.

I do own 1 business, not big, but it makes a profit.

I make all my own decisions.

I regularly make life or death shoot/don't shoot decisions. Generally speaking I don't want to shoot anybody. But I have no qualms about breaking a couple of their bones with my steel baton however if that's what it takes to keep them at a safe distance of 10 feet away or more.

Everyone should be empathetic to a degree. If not then you are simply a psychopath.

Apparently you think that just because you want to talk I should be required to listen. I am not stopping anyone from talking. The sig explains why I am not listening.

As for the gay part, attempts at insults are wasted here. Your fixation has nothing to do with my sexuality.

Before you SPEAK...that pretty much is an entitled viewpoint of censorship.

 

[MisterBeale]

Haha....here's the thing...if you took the time to take the test, your probably not an alpha.
An alpha doesn't care to take a test about whether he/she is an an alpha.

I'll go you even one further.

I don't even think a real alpha would spend valuable time on a political discussion forum. Alpha's are utilitarian, spartan.

My father helped construct the internet for ATT. He still uses computers every day, he is a computer nut, retired of course. Now there is a real alpha, of the Jon Wayne, true grit, stereo type, variety. This b.s. progressive shit going on in the culture? Not even worth the time it would take to chat about.

Alpha males don't see computers or PC's as sources of entertainment, they are tools only. Once you are done using them, they are shut off and put away. He thinks it is silly that I bond with my kid over video games, very unmanly.

After that, alpha males go out to the woods, golfing, watch a man's movie, watch sports or golf, etc. or go down to the tavern.

No self-respecting alpha would spend all day gossiping like a woman on a forum unless it was to get utilitarian information on how to fix or do something they did not know how to do already.

This forum is mostly a woman's waste of time only to stimulate emotions. Pointless.

Dont' give a damn about online tests, or what they are supposed to determine

Well, then you are even lower than a Gamma, so I'll peg you as a Zeta.

If Zeta means I'm sure enough of myself I don't need to a ridiculous online test to find out what I am, then I'm a Zeta

It is a truth universally acknowledged that posters who post, in threads about quizzes, their reasons for not taking the quiz are fearful that the results will prove that they are Beta minuses.

It is a truth universally acknowledged

Bullshit

People that take these tests don't know who they are, and hope the test will tell them.

I know who I am, and don't need a silly test to tell me what I already know

Oh blah blah blah....

If you're not interested in the quiz, then go find another thread to annoy.

An alpha female would apologize and admit when she is wrong. . . .

Point taken, however a real alpha won't spend a LOT of time on an internet forum.
Just because one is an alpha doesn't mean you spend 100% of your time being productive. That is nonsense.
Alpha's do pretty much what they want, and if talking politics etc. with other people because no one around him is interested in it...then that is what they will do.
