Over in scans_daily today there was a post containing a recent xkcd strip about Nice Guys (TM).

Cue two-hundred comments worth of people arguing about whether people who makes friends with someone just in the hopes of eventually dating them are just shy and insecure, or if they're manipulative assholes.

It's not the most vicious wank in the world, but it does contain the occasional gem like:

"People like that need insulting if it helps them stop acting that way."

"Well, some say the same about women who keep staying in relationships where they get beaten."

There was a lot of similar arguing on the xkcd feed when the strip came out.

Because women have nearly exclusive control over the nation's sex supply, and that will never, ever change.

Cartoon couples: SRS BZNS


I love how almost nobody is mentioning that in said hypothetical relationship, there's a second person involved. Why is it all this pretend manipulative guy's "fault"? Doesn't the woman bear any responsibility for choosing that relationship?

The original xkcd feed for this strip was full of all sorts of gems too. Including the line of thought that, well how come no one's blaming the GIRL--she's a bad friend for talking to and confiding in the nice guy, and making him care about her!

Oh god no, this is just giving me flashbacks to overhearing some guy saying, "Well, what would be the point in getting a female friend if you weren't expecting to hook up eventually? Wouldn't you just get a guy friend if you weren't looking for that?" Urgh.

If I can be srs for a moment, I hate entitled "nice guy" whining as much as the next girl, but that comic has kind of an overly cynical take on romances that grew from friendships. Yeesh.

I just want to point out that it's completely true that nice guys finish last.




... they always let their partner come first!

This whole wank just makes me think of this guy. Kind of a "this is how it should be done" moment, paired with the realization that I really wish I was that awesome and I never will be.

Random comment is random.

As someone who seems to be a Nice Guy magnet, this wank is making me feel icky. Anyone want to share cute animal icons? I've got a little nudibranch with bunny ears and a purple hat!

Whenever I read these kinds of wanks, I just get relieved I've never met a Nice Guy in person. The entitlement and sexism they emit is scarier than shit. All I've ever heard is second hand stories and I hope it stays that way.

Ugh, a good female friend of mine was recently subjected to a nice guy like that. Only he was a billion times more awkward. (Like asking her to go out with him after she had just finished complaining about her current crush problems. Uck.)

Meanwhile, it would be very nice to get to that century where women aren't labeled bitches just because they make their own decisions about who they want to have relationships with.

Sexism: Not funny.

Have a recipe.

Pomegranate-marinated lamb shanks with toasted barley and kale ragout

For the shanks:
1 quart pure pomegranate juice
1 cup fresh mint leaves
4 large heads of garlic, 2 separated into peeled cloves and 2 halved crosswise
1/4 cup grenadine
6 meaty lamb shanks (1 pound each), well-trimmed
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
4 medium carrots, cut into 1/2-inch dice
3 medium onions, finely chopped
3 cups dry red wine
1 cup chopped canned tomatoes
2 cups chicken stock or canned low-sodium broth

Kale and barely ragout:
1 1/2 cups pearl barley (10 ounces)
Salt
1 pound kale, stemmed, leaves coarsely chopped
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Prepare the lamb shanks: In a nonreactive medium saucepan, boil the pomegranate juice over high heat until reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
In a blender or food processor, puree the pomegranate juice with the mint, peeled garlic cloves and grenadine. Put the lamb shanks in a large glass or ceramic dish and pour the marinade on top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 12 and up to 24 hours, turning the shanks occasionally.
Preheat the oven to 375°. Heat the oil in a large, heavy, nonreactive skillet. Drain the lamb shanks and pat dry. Season them liberally with salt and pepper. Add 2 or 3 shanks at a time to the skillet and cook over moderately high heat, turning, until well-browned all over. Transfer the shanks to a roasting pan just large enough to hold them all.
Reduce the heat under the skillet to moderate and stir in the carrots, onions and halved garlic heads. Cook until the onions just soften, about 3 minutes. Add the wine, increase the heat to moderately high and scrape up any browned bits that are stuck to the pan. Boil until the wine is reduced to 1 cup, about 7 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and pour the mixture over the lamb shanks. Add the chicken stock and enough water to submerge the shanks by two-thirds. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the roasting pan with foil and braise the shanks in the oven until the meat is tender and pulling away from the bones, about 2 hours.
Meanwhile, make the barley and kale ragout: In a deep-sided medium skillet, toast the barley over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Add 4 1/2 cups of water, season with salt and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to moderately low and simmer until the barley is tender and all the water has been absorbed, about 40 minutes. Keep warm.
Transfer the lamb shanks to a platter. Cover with foil and keep warm. Squeeze the garlic cloves from the heads and add to the sauce in the roasting pan, or reserve them for another use. Stir the kale into the sauce until wilted, then strain the sauce into a large nonreactive saucepan; cover the vegetables in the strainer to keep them warm.
Boil the sauce over high heat until reduced to about 41/2 cups; set aside 3/4 cup. Stir the vegetables and barley into the sauce in the saucepan and season with salt and pepper.
Spoon the barley and kale ragout onto 6 large plates and set a lamb shank on top. Spoon the reserved sauce over the meat and garnish with the chopped parsley.

And if I'm no longer married? I'd go somewhere where I can hole up with my books and my cats and not have to deal with anyone ever again if I don't have to.

Fuck Nice Guys.
