What happened to these cultures??

IN SHORT: Gym guys, go back to that culture.

Like, when I was growing up, these kinds of roided douchebags were how I wanted to be like. Pretty much Zyzz variations, pre Zyzz aswell.

Funnily enough, gym culture back when you guys joined the misc (2005-2011) were completely flooded with these kinds of people. You most likely tried to look like this, people wherever you went looked like this aswell. (Frosted tips spiky hair, capped delts, aviators, tribal tattoos, etc)


It's weird, as current culture for guys is to wear skinny jeans showing ankles, gay circle glasses, be a skinny gay weed or fat and gross, introvert awkward talk on their little social media iphones 24/7, go out just to go back inside, have "mental health issues". Pathetic lol.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was the original gym icon and he was the terminator, so obviously he was tank lol.


But seriously, when I finally grew up, I was kind of disappointed that the misc and gym people are just kind of regular people who go to the gym. Where as before 2010/11ish, they were these ultimate douchebags on this pedestal, and the surrounding population would be trying to fit in. Wasn't anything to overthink aswell, as it was the norm.

But yeah, the old gym misc style. Looks a ton better than the current trash.

Exactly bro. They’ve been weeded out by Father Time and the pussification of the American male, but make no mistake, these were real men.

Didn't know they stopped jersey shore. Those guys made it gay though as their accents and manerisms were horrendously gay.


Yeah totally, the examples weren't even farfetched. The woman equivalent would be those bikini prostitute hairspray infested girls, which have also dissapeared?

Kind of annoying how the new norm is just boring as ****.

To be clear, Zyzz strictly wore little skinny ankle jeans.

Lol, didn't know there was a term dedicated to these mongs lol.

But yeah, shame it died out, in exchange we have a pile of crap for current culture. Like, where's those singlet roided boneheads?

Yeah totally! Gladiators, wrestlers, etc etc, say something wrong and you'd get flung in to a wall. But that was the old era.

Like, peoples brains are so far gone. I mean, being masculine as a guy isn't meant to be thought over, but apparently is has been? Sooooo retarded, pure nightmare.

I dunno, I thought he just wears shorts lol.

If he did, I don't think it looked like the guys who show their ankles, I mean, what even is that.

Yeah, it's weird as the douchy/ego thing is meant to be what bodybuilders are all about lol. Especially from guys who use a site called "bodybuilding.com".

Walk in to a local gym and see how ***gy it looks from the distance.

Haha! Yeah I see, I guess u can't do the same stuff at 22 when ur 30 odd. It's weird, as for myself, I just think it looks cool. 20, 30 years could pass and I'd think the same. I don't get why retards are so swayed by others and the "trends", doesn't make sense if you're just doing the copy and paste of everyone else.

Lol, yeah I hope so. I just never see it anymore, as mentioned above, there is no equivalent, just crappier introverted variations.

Exactly that, the point is just to have a good time 24/7. But now it's all about smartphones and being gay and ***gy.

Yeah totally lol, it was funny to see since they look like nobs, but atleast they were doing stuff instead of doing nothing.

I'd much rather just be low-key jacked as fuk, dress very nicely, and not have people think I'm a raging douchebag they want nothing to do with.

You can be jacked and not be a maladjusted manchild craving attention that you'll never find.

That's the thing see, why seek out what other people want you to be like? At that rate you can probably live for 80 years and have nobody know you were present since you were just like everyone else.

I’m saying you can stand out without acting like a try hard douche that everyone hates.

If you’re muscular enough, people can still tell when you’re wearing nice, well fitted clothing. You don’t have to announce it and throw it in everyone’s face at every opportunity like a piece of sh!t.

If being jacked and going to the gym are the centrepiece of your entire existence, you’re going to have a bad time.
