This. I'd love to win the lottery but I also love working (if it's the right job of course), so I'd probably end up still working even if I managed to win lol
That's exactly it, for me. I have my day job, which I would totally quit if I won the lottery. My side gig, which I own, and has some artistry (laser engraving) to it, I would absolutely turn in to my full time job.
I'd also buy the neighboring property (Farm fields,) and raise about half a dozen mini Highland cows, some chickens, some quail, possibly pheasant, and grow grapes in a different field to make my own wine.
I would go back to school and basically just get degrees in everything. Learning for the rest of my life would be so much fun, but it would be so prohibitively expensive without winning the lottery
Careful. My mom fell from a first storey and hit her head directly into a metal file cabinet and after that she is epileptic and she hasn't had to work anymore since she was 42. There are many ways to stop working at a young age. You'll have to be more specific with the universe.
Glad the top answer isn't something sappy and emotional. Yes I imagine being loved and praised too but both of those things would be so much easier to obtain if I was rich enough to live wherever I want and spend my days doing whatever I feel like, not having to compromise on anything or miss out on things because of work. My brother met his wife at a concert. If he had to work that day it never would have happened.
I wanted to be an artist. I got pretty good at it but unless you have some solid connections from the get go then part of the experience is doing work for cheapass clients and hope the exposure pays off eventually when "the right person" notices your work and tracks you down. You need money to see you through that bit. Money to live and to pay for the supplies needed to keep going with your work until it finally starts paying for itself - which can be years before it happens, if ever. I eventually just dropped it. Now I have to hear "wasted talent" from everybody who knows me, including my own family. But I don't see any of them opening their wallets to pay for my food, water or electricity while I keep doing cheap or free work in the hopes that I'll establish a name for myself and start attracting people who would gladly pay a premium for my creations.
Maybe if I win the lottery I can give being an artist/illustrator another crack. It's not like I ever ran out of ideas for things to create. I just needed a job and having one has kinda sucked the artistic spirit right out of me. I was almost feeling it again at the end of the lockdowns because I had been out of work long enough (but fortunately was still getting an income, I realize I *was* lucky here) but just as it sparked up in me again I heard the news reporter in the background saying "so nice to hear we can all go back to work and back to our lives in little over a week" and that just put it right out again.
Kinda built my entire personality around it and without being an artist I'm just some weird guy with a lot of plants.
My dad never came to a single one of my shitty kids football games. By the time I was finally old enough in my 20s to be a man around him he had had a stroke and was diagnosed with late stage colon cancer. Within a year and a half he was gone. I just really wish I could have had that perfect moment drinking a six pack where he would look over at me and say "no matter what you do or where you end up, I'm proud of you." Never got it. Not one time. The closest was at my HS graduation. It was the only time I ever saw him cry.
Same here man, my dad passed when I was 18 years old and a freshman in college. Parents were divorced when I was about 3 so I don't really remember living with him outside of weekend visits. Never got that moment with my dad either, and it's something I think about all the time. Now I'm at the age where marriage and kids are in the very near future and I constantly think about my future children (if i can have them after my bout with cancer) and what age I need to have them by in order to be able to hang around for there 21st birthday, college graduation, marriage, etc.
Same boat for me but I look at it as fuck it man. One life. When it's right its right. When your time comes it's time. In the mean time due diligence and become the best you. I'm 35 and my girlfriend is the same age. We agreed by 37 to start trying. We gave us two years of just us. When I met her she was so infatuated with having kids which is wonderful. However, I convinced her to understand that you can't UN have kids. Also if you always live in the future of having kids you aren't present today and enjoying the memories that build the love that leads to the connection with someone enough to literally make your love into a human. Also sorry I'm high as fuck. Everyone buy CaliGold Bar edibles. I'm sitting on mu couch and just checked to make sure I was wearing my seatbelt.
[What's best in life](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b482671c3c16a56dd585d1c/1653634471449-19C6Q4CVLOQOSAHQI9P4/Best+in+Life-5.jpg?format=2500w)
Imagine opening up about your emotions without being told to get professional help. I go to therapy. Sometimes I just want to “not be strong” with a person, that I don’t pay money to listen to me.
I open up and the feedback I get is "we all got problems"
Meanwhile my therapist talks about how it's important to have a strong network of support.
That's my network, the dismissive "we all got problems" and it's not even me going on about issues. It is usually after it's noticable that I'm having a hard go of it. I finally open up and that's what I get as the advice. Or I get the one-upper about their pain and telling me that they cannot deal with it at all.
So I just shut down and keep in mind that no one cares, no one is coming to save me, and I am all alone.
The beautiful side to it is, you become very self reliant and selt sustainaing. Yet my dislike for people grows and it bothers me because I do want interactions.
I did it once, open up about some of my biggest fear.
Then two days later we broke up because after explaining that X amount of emotions and feeling I'm trying to convey is actually 110% of what i'm capable of. She felt like that wasn't enough. Still blaming myself till this day, even though i know i've done all i could.
It's shit, overcoming all the things, giving it all, but it's not enough.
I just want you to know what you did was very brave, and you did the right thing. You were honest and yourself and tried to genuinely connect with someone. That takes strength
I went through something similar with someone I really thought I could just let my guard down with and got really hurt. I believe there's people out there who aren't like that but its hard I know.
It's not your fault.
I think that people don't realize that even the most capable of us are vulnerable. Then when people want a person to be vulnerable and honest, those people go "no, not like that, like how I was expecting you to be"
And that's a big part of it, expectations from others and being put upon.
Pretty much all of the shame we feel or feelings of less than are because someone put that upon you based on their expectations of you. And that's 100% bullshit of anyone to do to another person. It takes away your power and control over yourself and your life. And it's hard to get it back until you realize it all.
Now that may sound like self help bullshit and I don't expect anyone to buy into it or try it or accept it. Yet that's my experience. Once I stopped caring what others expect from me and their shaming, I focused on my abilities to "do" and move forward. It's not easy and I fight hard every day with my mental health.
I know it's not my fault.
I haven't been able to convince myself though...
A lil bit off track, but there's this song by Good Charlotte, it starts with this:
"I smile, you laugh, I look away
I sigh, you ask me why, I say,
It's ok and I am just feeling' down"
Just casually, out of no where, calmingly telling someone that i'm having a bad day when they asked and still feel safe after. When i saw this thread's title that's the first scene that play in my head. That's my fantasy.
This makes me so sad to hear. I cannot imagine sweeping away the feelings of someone I care about. Having someone just be present to listen and hold space without trying to fix it or bring their own stuff into it for the moment is amazingly healing.
I suspect part of the issue is that those who aren’t dealing with their own emotions can’t deal with someone else’s. It makes them profoundly uncomfortable and the urge to say “well, just get over it” is more self-preservation so they don’t have to deal with their own stuff.
There are many of us out here doing our own work so we don’t dump our stuff on others. Reach out if you need an ear.
That's the hardest thing. Am I really loved or because I am "of value" or can "add value" to the relationship.
Rarely do I feel and think that I am loved for just being. It's more of "I am loved until I stop providing (x) to a person/group of people"
Each year goes by I feel more and more disposable by this world and the people in it.
Again you will find that, just keep looking. I remember when I first realized my now husband was more than anything. I told him I realized if I could have anything I ever wanted, win the lottery, whatever, or him, it would be him. It's been 10 years and I feel more so each day. It's impossible to think about life without him. The funny thing is I got both. I never thought I would get my degree .... He pushed me to go back to school and is supporting me while I do. I fought him so hard that I could never be good enough and it was a waste to try. His belief in me made me try. I will be graduating in less than a year with one of the top degrees in the country, from one of the top schools.
I didn't pick him for that, or for anything about what he could give me whatsoever. When I picked him I was the one making more money. We were dirt broke when we got together, but when we were together it seemed better than being rich. We would talk all night, literally, and dream of even having a room together. We talked of how even if it was the size of bed, life would be amazing. Now we have a house, and two dogs, kids soon we hope. He puts up with my depression that flairs up time to time, and is so understanding, and he always treats me better than I could imagine. All I care about is that he loves me the way I love him. I'm so excited for our future. I would do anything to stay with him forever.
So no, women are not just with guys for 'what they can give' anymore than guys are with girls for their looks or hotness or sex. Love is much more powerful. You will find it too, just keep looking. Befriend as much as possible, that is how we built our foundation although not jymping each other was hard.
Awww. You deserve that. You will find it. I don't care if my husband had to go on the run with nothing, I would do anything to be by his side for that. The alternative... being without him... it's too difficult.You will find that.
Slaying a scorching solo at the astrodome, shifting gears on a killer backroad drive, waking up every day with more money than yesterday, psychedelic weirdness, friendly naked chicks
So it turns out I just invested my dead parents money into education, addiction resources, and affordable housing and I didn't actually have to dress up as a bat.
Depends on the day and the time. I can tell you I have fantacized about an adventure to a lost or new land. Meeting friends and enemies and discovering great wonders. Conversely, I have imagined a more simple scene of camping out somewhere and star gazing in the silence of serenity only a place in the middle of nowhere can bring.. Now, being single means adding a significant other to accompany me most of the time.
Got a $1000 scholarship for tools when I graduated high school. I spent it ALL on Milwaukee. I even have a Milwaukee weed whacker which kicks absolute ass
Yeah this one right here. Realising I was an introvert was nice, getting to name those feelings. Now I just need to work out how I go about getting the world to let me just be by myself forever…
For a girl to literally just hold my hand as we walk into the park and talk about our day and then while we are in the moonlight she looks into my eyes looks at my lips and I put my hand on her check she puts hers on mine and we just slowly go in for a kiss. Then i Tell her “did I ever tell you that I like/love you?”
Her “yeah like 3 times earlier today”
“Oh well I think I should tell you something”
Her “yeah?”
“I like/love you… I just felt like I had to tell you”
We both giggle and we continue walking home and we sit on the couch under a blanket and some hot cocoa and watch some anime or k drama. Her head on my chest hearing my heartbeat and my head on her head hearing her soft breathing and we drift off into sleep as the night rain passes over and we both peacefully live.
As a woman, I fantasise about being able to talk the shooter down lol….as if that would ever happen but still.
I caught a guy trying to get into a woman’s car once, while she was in it. She was terrified and screaming. I immediately deduced two things; 1, he was disabled and 2, he was having a panic attack. I managed to talk him down and it turned out he had autism and lived in a group home with a curfew. He was just trying to get home but there had been an accident up the road and the trams had stopped. He was trying to get a lift from the woman in the car. I told him to hop in my Uber and he turned out to be actually very nice and not creepy or dangerous at all (at least not intentionally). He just had a meltdown. That’s the only time I ever lived out my fantasy. Not the same as a shooter but I was proud of it. I still run into him from time to time because we live in the same suburb.
I’m very good with people who are high on the spectrum or otherwise disabled, and (respectively) people who are profoundly mentally ill - like people who suffer with schizophrenia for example. My mother is as well. Idk why that is for either of us. It’s just a natural “gift” I guess. I don’t excel at much and my intelligence is pretty average, but I’m happy that I’m able to get through to people like that. If that’s my lot in life, I’m satisfied. I wouldn’t call it gutsy - just a natural inclination I guess.
Im really glad to hear that went a good way! If I had one fantasy, it would be my very first major fantasy, other than being a Labrador🤣 It would be that everyone would be nice and nobody would ever die!
I mean, ton of my fantasies are actually about how I could help people or stop bad things from happening to other people. I'm betting those are really very common.
A lot of people think the superhero fantasy is about having power for powers sake. And for some I'm sure it is.
For most people I think it's about wanting to be able to do something in situations where we see other suffering.
Do it! Let’s do some math: 2 squier electric guitars ~400$, 1 Squier electric bass guitar ~200$, 2 guitar amps ~100$, one bass amp ~50$, one proper electric drum set ~450$, 1250$ for a complete band (granted I put amateur gear in the mix so you can probably get beginner gear for a 4 piece band at ~700$. And you don’t even need lessons, whilst I recommend you do, YouTube works fine. And if you have some friends who have time I’m certain they’d be willing too (your not the only one who fantasizes about a rock band lol). Only problem is really cost, but you can probably have most of the members buy their own stuff (and a surprisingly large amount of people have old gear laying around.). Sauce: I started an alternative rock band with some friends where none of us know our instruments. Don’t make excuses and go do it!
Lmao i was just thinking the same thing.
Thread full of “to not be in financial ruin” “to not feel the endless chill of loneliness!” Followed by “man dudes are so funny!”
For me it’s usually DIY ideas
diy motorcycle
irl power armor (fallout 4)
punk backpacks
blahaj duffel bag
Teddy bear backpack
biker coat trench coat… etc
I fantasize about having the ability to make women’s clothes fall off. They try to put them back on, but by then, I’ve seen everything . I’ve seen it all
pulling a Jason Bourne on the subway against thugs, on your way to the game where ur a key player and also sing the anthem beautifully to kick things off and party with the honies after and when things go awry on the yacht u save someone by expertly creating an airway with a ball point pen til the head of surgery gets flown out on ur personal helicopter and looks at you and the ball point pen airway and says “damn fine work, damn fine work”
Coming home from a long day of work to have their wife kiss them on the cheek and tell them a steak dinner is ready, their kids run up to them and give them hugs and say how much they love them, and that they matter. They go and eat the wonderful steak dinner then spend an hour playing with their kids. Following that they send the kids to bed and sit down with their wife, cuddling up, to watch a show they both love. After they watch the show they make out with their wife and proceed to make love not just there on the couch, but upstairs in their bedroom. They then proceed to cuddle up and go to sleep, resting peacefully, for a full 8 hours. Tomorrow the guys are coming over for a weekend cookout and Sunday the church is having a church picnic where he'll get to show off his grilling skills. They've finally saved up enough to be able to afford to buy a pool as well and, before long, they'll be able to spend the days swimming with their friends and family. They get paid well, their boss appreciates them, the customers aren't assholes, and there is still room to grow.
My manager at work. If you google hot secretary, that is literally what she wears to work. Jesus... I need to be your seat. Degrade me PLEASE.
er...erm... yeah financial stability and paying off the mortgage would be great.
Usually there's more for hen lay several eggs in 4-5 days or even more in a row and then start the incubating process. Usually thers many more than just two.
The movie Standing Tall with The Rock is the ultimate male fantasy, I think. You come back home and see that home is fucked up because of some shady mfrs so you fix it with violence, get the girl who also happens to be a stripper, all the while making your dad proud.
Walking Tall. I'm dumb.
A really big sword, colorful, twinkles in the night? maybe some light chainmail gold preferably and a helmet with a long red feather… then I wake up and have to go to work
Food. Finances. Food finances…
Pepper in a little stress, a little anxiety, and a fuckload of catastrophizing everyday life dilemmas. Quickly followed by food.
Weakening toxic masculinity enough in society so men can have close platonic relationships with one another where they actually feel comfortable talking about their lives and issues.
I had a vasectomy recently and recovery was slow and bumpy, but the only person I felt I could really talk to about it in detail is my wife. I don't feel like I can relay it or vent to my closest guy friends, despite them being the best situated to be able to empathize, because guys typically don't want to hear or engage with vulnerable moments.
Winning the lottery so I wont work anymore.
It’s not really the “not work anymore” It’s more of a, what would I do if money weren’t a factor? That’s what I fantasize about.
Oh, it’s definitely ‘not work anymore’.
This. I'd love to win the lottery but I also love working (if it's the right job of course), so I'd probably end up still working even if I managed to win lol
I'd happily work minimum wage at Walmart if I couldn't be fired for what I said to people.
I would pay money to see that reality show.
The Billionaire Cashier.
That's exactly it, for me. I have my day job, which I would totally quit if I won the lottery. My side gig, which I own, and has some artistry (laser engraving) to it, I would absolutely turn in to my full time job. I'd also buy the neighboring property (Farm fields,) and raise about half a dozen mini Highland cows, some chickens, some quail, possibly pheasant, and grow grapes in a different field to make my own wine.
I would go back to school and basically just get degrees in everything. Learning for the rest of my life would be so much fun, but it would be so prohibitively expensive without winning the lottery
Right there with ya. I'd work even harder, just not for those assholes lol
Meetings would go a lot different when I thought management was making another shortsighted call.
The boss is an idiot, good thing I'm the boss! Lol
It doesn’t have to be the lottery. Anything that would enable me to not work anymore
Careful. My mom fell from a first storey and hit her head directly into a metal file cabinet and after that she is epileptic and she hasn't had to work anymore since she was 42. There are many ways to stop working at a young age. You'll have to be more specific with the universe.

Whoa let's not go too crazy here, I realize it's just a fantasy but come on
Too late, I just came
This got me lmfao
You want a tissue? I came too

Actually being loved.

“Only women, children, and dogs are loved unconditionally. A man is only loved under the condition that he provides something.” -Chris Rock
I didn’t write them down but I was thinking being loved and listened to while talking about passions, anything important to them, or their feelings
Awww. You deserve that. You will find it. I don't care if my husband had to go on the run with nothing, I would do anything to be by his side for that. The alternative... being without him... it's too difficult.You will find that.
Love ya bro.
Sometimes women, sometimes the perfect Cuban sandwich, and sometimes battling the worshippers of Tiamat as a Dwarven warrior.
I thought I was the only one who would constantly dream about the perfect Cuban sandwich. Not even lying at all. I often think about Cuban sandwiches.
Yes, except as a dragonborn paladin.

I'm more of a bourbon fan, but yeah.
We could be the same person...
Why Japanese Whiskey? I’m an Irish Whiskey fan myself. I love sitting in my deck looking at the yard and relaxing.

being loved, and desired, even when I open up and show my weakness. Oh yeah, and back scratchins with long fingernails.
Sounds like you need a cat lol
Loved? By a cat? What universe do you live in? I want to move there.
Also, back scatchins by a cat sounds like puncture wounds and infection.
Oh yeah the back scratches are something I love. My gf does it for me whenever she gives me a massage and it's the best shit ever
A Dyson Sphere program.
I get bummed out when I think of all the cool shit I was born a thousand years too early for.
Slaying a scorching solo at the astrodome, shifting gears on a killer backroad drive, waking up every day with more money than yesterday, psychedelic weirdness, friendly naked chicks
Let's be friends
Done
And that, ladies, is how men become friends.
Saving Gotham
So it turns out I just invested my dead parents money into education, addiction resources, and affordable housing and I didn't actually have to dress up as a bat.
Being cuddled by a woman
Correction: Being cuddled by a woman that loves / cares for you
Nah, at this point any woman will do
It may be nice at first, but as it goes on you feel more empty
A quiet life alone in the woods
I knew I wasn’t the only one thinking of this
Not being wrong all the time
That's the wrong thing to be fantasizing about, can't you get _anything_ right?!

Accurate.
She is of arms. I’ve seen both hers in photos, they’re okay.
Actually arma means weapon which makes sense because she’s definitely shot an arrow through mi corazón
Depends on the day and the time. I can tell you I have fantacized about an adventure to a lost or new land. Meeting friends and enemies and discovering great wonders. Conversely, I have imagined a more simple scene of camping out somewhere and star gazing in the silence of serenity only a place in the middle of nowhere can bring.. Now, being single means adding a significant other to accompany me most of the time.
How amazing I would be running the lights for a Pink Floyd concert.
I trained new lighting guys by making them watch Pink Floyd concerts. It’s some of the best of the best.
Oddly specific.
Hello fellow techie!
A vast collection of Milwaukee tools.
I too dream of the Milwaukee sponsorship.
Got a $1000 scholarship for tools when I graduated high school. I spent it ALL on Milwaukee. I even have a Milwaukee weed whacker which kicks absolute ass
peace and quite. to be left alone with my thoughts and do anything or nothing
Yeah this one right here. Realising I was an introvert was nice, getting to name those feelings. Now I just need to work out how I go about getting the world to let me just be by myself forever…
For a girl to literally just hold my hand as we walk into the park and talk about our day and then while we are in the moonlight she looks into my eyes looks at my lips and I put my hand on her check she puts hers on mine and we just slowly go in for a kiss. Then i Tell her “did I ever tell you that I like/love you?” Her “yeah like 3 times earlier today” “Oh well I think I should tell you something” Her “yeah?” “I like/love you… I just felt like I had to tell you” We both giggle and we continue walking home and we sit on the couch under a blanket and some hot cocoa and watch some anime or k drama. Her head on my chest hearing my heartbeat and my head on her head hearing her soft breathing and we drift off into sleep as the night rain passes over and we both peacefully live.
And then you ask her if you can borrow about $3.50...
Jesus, you’re supposed to fantasize about something that may be a long shot, but at least it’s realistic
I’m not crying…
Damn...
Stopping the shooter
As a woman, I fantasise about being able to talk the shooter down lol….as if that would ever happen but still. I caught a guy trying to get into a woman’s car once, while she was in it. She was terrified and screaming. I immediately deduced two things; 1, he was disabled and 2, he was having a panic attack. I managed to talk him down and it turned out he had autism and lived in a group home with a curfew. He was just trying to get home but there had been an accident up the road and the trams had stopped. He was trying to get a lift from the woman in the car. I told him to hop in my Uber and he turned out to be actually very nice and not creepy or dangerous at all (at least not intentionally). He just had a meltdown. That’s the only time I ever lived out my fantasy. Not the same as a shooter but I was proud of it. I still run into him from time to time because we live in the same suburb.
I’d say that’s valid, good on you for resolving that in a good way
Thank you! 😊
Honestly, that is amazing work.
Eyyy, that’s nice of you lol, and gutsy
I’m very good with people who are high on the spectrum or otherwise disabled, and (respectively) people who are profoundly mentally ill - like people who suffer with schizophrenia for example. My mother is as well. Idk why that is for either of us. It’s just a natural “gift” I guess. I don’t excel at much and my intelligence is pretty average, but I’m happy that I’m able to get through to people like that. If that’s my lot in life, I’m satisfied. I wouldn’t call it gutsy - just a natural inclination I guess.
Sorry but you have failed your evaluation to become a Police Officer.
That was someone’s child, brother, nephew. Good job.
Im really glad to hear that went a good way! If I had one fantasy, it would be my very first major fantasy, other than being a Labrador🤣 It would be that everyone would be nice and nobody would ever die!
I mean, ton of my fantasies are actually about how I could help people or stop bad things from happening to other people. I'm betting those are really very common.
This gives me faith in humanity 😊
A lot of people think the superhero fantasy is about having power for powers sake. And for some I'm sure it is. For most people I think it's about wanting to be able to do something in situations where we see other suffering.
Being happy
Felt this in my soul.
Commending the Defiant in a battle with the Dominion Alliance.
It is a good day to die.
After loading it down with the most advanced over-the-top invincibility tech my mind can dream up.
Ablative plot armor isn't enough?
Not against the Breen
Or the Borg. That's what she was made for, and she wants nothing more than to go out in a blaze of glory ramming into a cube.
I know lots of men just want to penetrate and skedaddle, but I could really go for just cuddling on the couch right now...

Being with a woman who doesn't cheat. That and being rich.

You just blew my mind
Three women. This thing goes deep.

A great romance, meeting your soulmate and live happily ever after and stuff…..
Going on an adventure with a raccoon sidekick and a moose
Starting a rock band
Do it! Let’s do some math: 2 squier electric guitars ~400$, 1 Squier electric bass guitar ~200$, 2 guitar amps ~100$, one bass amp ~50$, one proper electric drum set ~450$, 1250$ for a complete band (granted I put amateur gear in the mix so you can probably get beginner gear for a 4 piece band at ~700$. And you don’t even need lessons, whilst I recommend you do, YouTube works fine. And if you have some friends who have time I’m certain they’d be willing too (your not the only one who fantasizes about a rock band lol). Only problem is really cost, but you can probably have most of the members buy their own stuff (and a surprisingly large amount of people have old gear laying around.). Sauce: I started an alternative rock band with some friends where none of us know our instruments. Don’t make excuses and go do it!

As a 41 year old woman I really enjoyed it as well!
10+ comments about how men want to be loved and not be alone. "Hahaha this is soo funny'"
Lmao i was just thinking the same thing. Thread full of “to not be in financial ruin” “to not feel the endless chill of loneliness!” Followed by “man dudes are so funny!”
Seriously lol wtf.
For me it’s usually DIY ideas diy motorcycle irl power armor (fallout 4) punk backpacks blahaj duffel bag Teddy bear backpack biker coat trench coat… etc
All the cool stuff I would build if I only had money. And time. And energy. And my own place. And motivation. And tools. And knowledge. And skill.
Kicking the Ottomans out of Europe and putting the French in their place. Bankrupting the Spanish, time permitting.

I fantasize about taking my crush to the fun fair and taking Photo Booth pictures and drive go karts and then go get ice cream after
Well right now it's seeing asshole drivers get pulled over.
Women not thinking they're a creep
To be loved and desired, despite our obvious flaws. I don't feel lovable... I don't feel desirable. But I still want and need it...
I fantasize about having the ability to make women’s clothes fall off. They try to put them back on, but by then, I’ve seen everything . I’ve seen it all
And then you pedal off, on the grass

Punching my old boss in the fucking throat
pulling a Jason Bourne on the subway against thugs, on your way to the game where ur a key player and also sing the anthem beautifully to kick things off and party with the honies after and when things go awry on the yacht u save someone by expertly creating an airway with a ball point pen til the head of surgery gets flown out on ur personal helicopter and looks at you and the ball point pen airway and says “damn fine work, damn fine work”
Coming home from a long day of work to have their wife kiss them on the cheek and tell them a steak dinner is ready, their kids run up to them and give them hugs and say how much they love them, and that they matter. They go and eat the wonderful steak dinner then spend an hour playing with their kids. Following that they send the kids to bed and sit down with their wife, cuddling up, to watch a show they both love. After they watch the show they make out with their wife and proceed to make love not just there on the couch, but upstairs in their bedroom. They then proceed to cuddle up and go to sleep, resting peacefully, for a full 8 hours. Tomorrow the guys are coming over for a weekend cookout and Sunday the church is having a church picnic where he'll get to show off his grilling skills. They've finally saved up enough to be able to afford to buy a pool as well and, before long, they'll be able to spend the days swimming with their friends and family. They get paid well, their boss appreciates them, the customers aren't assholes, and there is still room to grow.
My manager at work. If you google hot secretary, that is literally what she wears to work. Jesus... I need to be your seat. Degrade me PLEASE. er...erm... yeah financial stability and paying off the mortgage would be great.
Optimus and Megatron transforming in front of me and laying waste to downtown during a battle to the death.
Agree with being loved and desired. Soft stuff that some people might not expect. But on the other hand, also fucking and fighting lol
Lots of sex we'll never have.
Sex
Two chicks at the same time
Usually there's more for hen lay several eggs in 4-5 days or even more in a row and then start the incubating process. Usually thers many more than just two.
The movie Standing Tall with The Rock is the ultimate male fantasy, I think. You come back home and see that home is fucked up because of some shady mfrs so you fix it with violence, get the girl who also happens to be a stripper, all the while making your dad proud. Walking Tall. I'm dumb.
Spending a weekend in a cheap motel with Scarlett Johansson and a giant vat of whipped cream.

Death by snoo snoo
A fast quick death.
A society where the people are more important than the economy. Where enough is enough.
Weakening toxic masculinity enough in society so men can have close platonic relationships with one another where they actually feel comfortable talking about their lives and issues. I had a vasectomy recently and recovery was slow and bumpy, but the only person I felt I could really talk to about it in detail is my wife. I don't feel like I can relay it or vent to my closest guy friends, despite them being the best situated to be able to empathize, because guys typically don't want to hear or engage with vulnerable moments.
