I did a stupid SSH test, and the results said "Sigma 83%"

Why would a sigma wear such a dumb t-shirt? I wear a suit everywhere I go, except for gym trips and "fight nights" on the town . [when a jacket is a liability in a bar fight]

More importantly, why can't I find the block button?

Would love to see some Delta shirts that say something like:

Delta: Maintaining Civilization Since XXXX BC

Delta: Keeping Civilization Running

When I told my dad that his job is to maintain civilization, he swelled with pride in a way id never seen before.

When did we get up to 5XL? I feel like I need to work on my T-shirt game since I'm just a medium.

This is such a huge undertaking, Vox. The amount of IDGAF you have to have to put these concepts into the mainstream is mind blowing. Just sending this t-shirt link to my husband resulted in a conversation about why Sigma isn't just a sub-label for disappointing Alpha. I'll just let everyone speculate as to his standing in the hierarchy. But man, I was exhausted by the end of it. I ended up just granting that he's free to think about it however he wants. It will be interesting to observe what becomes of this culturally. So many people, and all of them with opinions.

My indifference is infinite.

As one of my college roommates once explained to a mutual friend: "It is impossible to exaggerate the extent to which Vox doesn't care what you think."

There is a reason I coined the acronym MPAI. And it's true.

Having thought about it for a bit, I'm totally on board for anything related to Hypergamouse.

How about a sleeveless "smart boy" shirt for the gym?

Shirt design idea:

Doof with his fedora and Japanese sword on the front with the girl mice running away in terror on the back.

A collab with hypergamouse could be cool specially for the ladies

Maybe you can make some gag gifts with “The Secret King” on the back so we can buy them for our favorite gammas. No doubt they will wear them with pride.

The gag gift would be the shirt that says "Ligma Male".

Have you ever thought about making a 12 rules poster? It would look great on my kid’s wall. Maybe a YA book for older kids too, so they don’t go down the gamma path.

Lambda in the tramp stamp spot on the bottom hem?

Looking forward to the Hypergamouse t-shirts. My daughter's friends all think my Alt-Hero Rebel shirt is the bees knees. I now have a mom-with-the-cool-shirts reputation to uphold.

Boosting the mom-with-the-cool-shirts reputation is absolutely high on the list!

Lambda is on the tag I’m guessing.

Lambda deserves it's own tie-dye tshirt. The question is, would anyone actually buy it?

Some sort of PSA letting females know they are NOT Sigmas. Its beginning to get annoying out here in the wild

I suspect there are female equivalents of most of the SSH rank, but I can't think of any women who are like a sigma.

Gladriel maybe? Fiction seems to have female sigmas but likely because males are writing it.
