The Refined Gentleman Thread

[SC kid]

-clear alcohols are for rich women on diets

- on bowling..straight down the middle. .no spin. No spin. No fuss.
Anything more is figure skating

-turkey can never beat cow

-any dog under 50lbs is a cat and cats are useless

-give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Dont teach a man to fish..feed yourself. Hes a grown man. Fishings not that hard

-there are 3 ways to motivate people. Money, fear, and hunger

-shorts over 6 inches are capri pants. Shorts under 6 inches are European

-friends: one to three is sufficient

-honor: if you need it defined you dont have it

That was beautiful, I cried.

Anyway, thanks for starting this thread OP.  I'd been waiting for years for something similar on NT but I'm not a thread starter.  I'll work on that as I imagine it'll add to my gentlemanly nature.

Question...how gentle should a gentleman be?  I feel like there's a fine line there, if you're too gentle are you really still a man?

I was contemplating that this morning while drinking my black coffee coincidentally.


I believe that there are men too gentle to live among wolves.
Some intelligent, enlightened, gentle ..if u will, men will suffer at the hands of the physical world.

In the words of leonardo da vinci..

"The greater the sensibility. .the greater the suffering"

Finding and maintaining that proper balance will be my focus.  Not only today but for all of my days.

But when does the firmness imply competitiveness?

How firm should a gentlemans shake be?

The dap is used amongst friends.

dont try to crush a guys hand, although a lot of people do

i usually match the grip that the other person is using, unless its one of those limp hand dudes which are the worst
