Sexy and I Know It

[ms_sunlight]

Lipstick and stompy black leather boots! When I'm out there all dressed in black, lipstick on and my Doc Martens or my Cats, I'm feeling like I could stride across the whole world.

I feel best when I'm wearing an expensive suit with a group of friends in equally pricey suits. Otherwise I'm usually confident anyway.

Your avatar makes me read all your posts in a weird way, that anything you say comes off mildly amusing. I love it.

OT: Well, most of the things OP listed. I'll detail the clothes one though. When I wear a hat from my collection, or one of my really nice button down shirts. When I wear my black slim fit suit (with or without my trilby) or when I wear my David Tennant coat on a windy day. When my hair falls just right and it looks casually ruffled.

Outside of appearance: When I'm training dogs, particularly if someone I know sees me being all in charge and whatnot. When I have those phases of off the cuff remarks and wit that bring smiles to ladies faces.

Edit: As depressing as it is, I have most of these moments if I've spent a certain amount of time out of the company of a certain friend. He likes to just occasionally say something to put me down or make me doubt myself, and has this knack where I just end up thinking about it for the rest of the day.

He's vindictive...

I don't always feel awesome but when I do, I walk into bars and drink them dry, then I start a fight with five men and win! Then I make use of a truly staggering number of prostitutes, some of whom I may have once been married to, then I buy drugs, in fact I take a pillow case to the drug dealer and tell him to fill it with drugs.

Massive respect to anyone who gets the reference.

I don't know the reference but where is it from? It sounds like something that will improve my life no end!

And OT: Lordi, Rammstein, The Who etc. basically some good epic sounding music. The Superman theme is pretty good for it.

 

[Ironic Pirate]

Entirely theoretical, but if someone were to tell me I looked nice.

Also when I can get the whole class (or at least a few people) laughing.

 

[MeatMachine]

When I take advantage of the open-carry laws in my state.

 

[Smokej]

while im making my way through the city and exchanging some nice smiles with all the women i find attractive

One of the previous posters got it right, it's from a very crude comic called Transmetropolitan, I highly reccomend looking into it especially if you're into completely batshit insane vulgar humour.

 

[Crazy_Dude]

When I just got a new piercing/tattoo it hurst like hell but I still think they look awesome.

 

[Jenitals]

Walking down the corridor and getting checked out by guys with smiles and the occasional cheeky grin.

It sounds so slutty and arrogant but I have annonymity so I don't give a crap.

 

[Total LOLige]

After a coin flip to decide what my next course of action should be.

Heads = Pursue an action.
Tails = Don't.

Ever feel nervous about something flip a coin and let it force you to make the decision.

Best philosophy ever, from now on if I'm in a tricky situation I'll flip a coin. To tell a girl I like her flip a coin and hope it's not heads.

 

[Doom-Slayer]

In my totally casual clothes, anime/transformers tshirt, listening to metal and biking along, passing all the cars stuck in traffic. Mmm..I do enjoy that.

Sorry to disappoint those who came to the thread looking to berate someone for thinking that they're really, really, ridiculously good-looking.

Never good sir, perish the thought. I only came in to add to the thread topic: Clap your hands!

I hope she thinks it's cool that you always flip a coin when you have to start doing it in front of her, Harvey.

Ha! was in a fairly similar situation. Went to a part of my suburb that I've never been, saw a cute girl at Gamestop (EB games over here) flipped a coin and it was heads... too bad she had a boyfriend *shrugs*

That moment when i think we may have woken someone else in the house after we... umm, nevermind.

Being out, dressed but not the best dressed... while my wife beside me IS.
It has only happened a couple times (pretty much not since our second child), but those evenings have been some of my fondest memories.

And lastly, my leather jacket. I've had it for years. Only get to wear it MAYBE twice a year (we live in god-forsaken Florida), but when I get to zip it up, I just can't help standing a bit straighter and walking a bit more confidently.

 

[littlewisp]

For me, it has to be buying a new outfit that you feel great in. Today I got a new dress and some precarious high-heels and I can't wait to show them off and strut around the place (if I actually can... walk, that is).

This coupled with when you see someone giving you a positive once over. CONFIDENCE BOOSTER ACTIVATED!

 

[Sacman]

Nothing... I have low self esteem and there isn't a single thing that can be done about it...

 

[rawion]

Doing spontaneous ninja moves in my daily routine. (i.e. slipping through a closing door right before it closes, making a graceful recovery from almost falling down the stairs, etc.) its the simple things.

 

[Jedoro]

When I'm told I look like Nathan Fillion.

Oh boy, oh boy, that one's always great.

You lucky bastard.

OT: When I've just spent some time at the shooting range, and probably once I get my 1911 and carry permit.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Rather, this thread is to ask Escapists what makes them feel more confident than perhaps they usually would be? What gives you that extra boost that makes you strut around like one of the Bee Gees?

My Current Games project wherin I ended up being the project lead by doing the work in the space of a night a month before it was announced. Not to sound but arrogant but it still helps my cripplingly low self-esteem.

Stuff like that basically, also the prospect of getting a waistcoat.

you mean like this one?

Spoiler: You have caused confusion...

...and delay.
Sorry couldn't help myself ^_^

 

[NathLines]

Shaving and taking a long, long bath.
