     @lelouchebag Don’t waste your energy, Pirating stuff is a pretty big turn-off to girls. Save that shit for when you’re married, otherwise she’ll just get grossed out.

     @WashedOutGundamPilot @lelouchebag Convince her that everything on those platforms isn't worth watching instead.

     @WashedOutGundamPilot @lelouchebag Or just setup a plex server but don't tell her where the stuff comes from.

     @ForbiddenDreamer @lelouchebag All the real solutions have to wait until things are more serious and codified. At a certain point you just keep making fun of her like “haha, you PAY for this shit? hahah, you’re such a little kid, it’s adorable” After a while she’ll ask how to do it your way. (as long as the torrented product is better than hers)

     Then again despite all my best efforts mine STILL can’t figure out how to operate torrents beyond the most basic functions. Keeps downloading them and then moving the files midway then calling me wondering WTF they aren’t working

     @WashedOutGundamPilot @lelouchebag Yeah, obviously you can't mess with CAM rips and the like, and I can usually grab a 1080p copy in a few minutes as long as it isn't obscure, so it's usually more like "Just tell me what you want and check for it in five minutes."
     Plus, I do my torrenting via CLI, and good luck teaching your girl how to do that...

     @RustyCrab @lelouchebag No, you need to be cool. You can be a torrenting, android using weirdo as long as you’re cool. It’s the guys who HAVE to jump into a conversation about WHY they do this stuff that don’t make it. They give off weirdo vibes. Girls don’t wanna be stuck with a man they have to apologize for all their lives

     @WashedOutGundamPilot @lelouchebag tbh this point really just boils down to "you need to make a boatload of cash and show off your boatload of cash".
