I have read people write and heard people say words like “jobmaxing”, “hobbymaxing” and stuff like that. I guess I understand what these words mean, but I am confused as to where the “…maxing” thing comes from.
I had totally normal people talk to me like this, but I also somehow connect it to Andrew Tate and people like that. Is using these words - to you - a telltale sign of a guy who has issues with women? Or is it something you also would say in a normal conversation (assuming you treat women with respect)?
And does anyone know where these terms originated from?
4chan, and it’s maxxing. It’s used used for ‘productive’ things incels do (for the improvement of their life) instead of dooming over how they’re incels
I’ve been climaxing lately.
Yes, of course, I’ve also recently been trying to use the command line as much as possible
Runescapers definitely do.
Originates from a greentext on 4chan where anon’s retard brother coined the term and it’s caught on since
Are you talking about min-maxing, or like “chillin’ out, maxin’, relaxin’ &c” ?
Pokémon trainers dynamax. https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Dynamax
Dynamaxxing hahaha
Same, I associate it with incels. Wikipedia even tells me,
Proponents of “looksmaxxing” refer to simple practices as “softmaxxing”, including proper hygiene, skincare, hairstyles suited to one’s face shape, exercise routines, wearing fashionable clothing
Soooo, incels need a special term to make hygiene palatable to them. Uhuh.
Not worth criticising, it’s just confused and alienated people attempting self-improvement. That’s a positive thing.
