*shrug* whatever that means. I turned out to be better looking than most of the popular jocks from back in the day, some of them have let themselves go even

So who is shallow here? You don't know anything compared to what I do -- you couldn't beat me in a debate if I contracted tourettes syndrome right before it. So give it a rest with the shallow insults. I'm so deep that if I were the ocean and the Titanic sunk in me, it would still be falling to the bottom as we speak. You're so shallow not even a microbe would be submerged if you were a puddle.
LOL...are you really keeping score? How funny. You really are a child.

Two novels published, and a multi-million dollar consultancy built from scratch and sold. Phi Beta Kappa and Masters Degree. Guest lecturer to MBA programs, including Vanderbilt and Emory. Featured in the Wall Street Journal, AdWeek, Millimeter, and Print Magazine. Semi-retired at 44 with holdings in commercial property. Speaker at conferences. Currently negotiating a column in a respected British publication. All you have is a lousy philosophy degree, and a dinky philosophy book that was probably self-published. Come back when you actually have something to brag about.

I could care less about your achievements and you could care less about mine, but my point was only that you aren't going to pin some "shallow" label on me for having "must be attractive" on my list of qualities I look for in girls I date. That's just a joke. I have a list of 100 things I want in a girl I date, and 1 of them is looks, and you call me shallow? Where the hell did you get your Master Degree, you can't even understand the English language properly! If you could, you wouldn't have called me shallow since you would understand the definition. You bragging about your achievements just makes it worse because it means you made it this far without understanding basic English, which is pretty funny if you think about it.

The difference is that I'm outlining my achievements because you upped the ante, my friend. I've been on this forum for months and never really felt the need to volunteer them to anybody, while you're blurting out your meager ones as some weird and ultimately insecure tactic to cow others on the board. And the shallowness on your part is self-evident.

I have a GED and a library card.

However, I speak fluent Texan, can navigate any subway system in the world, and have the world's largest collection of unmatched gloves.

Is that impressive enough for ya yet, huh?

No. Only the insecure ones. I've sat in a lot of meetings with people more accomplished than I am, and they've never felt a need to mention anything about their lives. Down to earth people, mostly.

You mean "I could not care less."
