MrBlueLight's love diary in Manila

[WorldTraveler]

I am sorry if this won't go down well with some of the power posters here, but a paraphrase of Mark Twain's famous motto springs to mind...those who do, do - those who don't, post.

I couldn't find that saying by Twain, but I agree with it 100% anyway. Just go to any Forum. The members with the highest number of posts tend to be the biggest braggers and have created fictional lives. Many forums have posters who have thousands of alpha posts. They guys are nothing but keyboard jockeys living in their parents basements.

My bad. It was by George Bernard Shaw: "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach". I think you understood the context perfectly: those who are genuinely interested in exploring the world cultures and appreciating them with an open mind and am honest heart, those who look for a quality partner without indulging too much in sex tourism, those who knows their priorities in life...they will hardly have time to post stuff on a forum, let alone tall tales and made up stories. And when share they choose to do, their accounts will bear the full power of real facts, real life experience, clean narrative.

As an offshoot of forums, we have now got to the point when plenty of people are trying to earn a living by curating blogs where at least 75% of the stuff written is basically of the type you describe: made up stories about improbable "alpha" lifestyles packed with success, social respects, exotic locales and lots of bangs. Those snake oil salesmen selling "motivational information" have always existed, but the anonymity guaranteed by the Internet allows these particular ones peddle whatever they want without the need for solid proof. The entire PUA movement is based on this tall narrative fron a bunch of faux-wisemen.

It's George Benard Shaw, but it's "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach".

I think the modern upgrade of that saying is: "Those who can, do; those who can't, blog". Yes, most of PUA bloggers are these assholes. Many of he guys aren't having sex. I can tell because of the way they describe the event.

Yes, their blogs suck overall. Not one these "location independent entrepreneurs" can tell you how they make their money. I have found that 90% these people are just attention whores. These attention whores have a large fictional presence to the public. Just PM them or ask them a specific question and you won't get an answer. Reality is too difficult for them!

If you know of any good travel or travel bang bloggers, I'd like to read them. Even many travel bloggers are just attention whoring. If you know so good blog, please let me know.

It's also because the barrier to entry for a blog gig, or a blog-cum-online-shop gig is now so low, virtually everybody can pay a Thai or Indian kid $50 and get a state of the art single page website, and another $50 for with cart/payment system API integration. It really doesn't take that much. After the scaffolding is done, the contents can be just about anything, a rehash of old self-help motivational stuff that uses whatever flavour du jour, from "extreme fitness" to "minimalism", from anti-something/somebody rhetoric to plain made up bullcrap.

You might remember Mark Manson, perhaps one of the least destructive and more honest agents of the male development blogosphere (before it was brutally shortened into "manosphere", which is funny because if taken from its Greek root it would quite aptly mean "the sphere of thin air"), when he was still running his Postmasculine project. He had most of his branding and marketing work done by two "interns", two fresh college graduates who were apparently "selected" from hundreds of hopefuls to share Mark's "luxury apartment" in Medellin (a 3 bedroom flat in the Poblado area isn't more than $500 a month) and have the privilege of working on his project...for free. That kids will want to work on whatever seems cool and can beef up their CVs, in this anemic job market, I understand. What I fail to see is how they could think that working on a project that had as its only goal to elevate the online ego of yet another self-described and self-assured PUA guru, could help them succeed...with girls as much as their careers.

The Postmasculine project failed a few months later, and Mr Manson resorted to the relatively safer haven of "general" self-help and motivational writing. I am still wondering where he gets the money for his daily shots of whiskey. Unless, of course, they come straight from his cats' appendages

It's George Benard Shaw, but it's "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach".

Yeah that's what I wrote above As a statement it's obviously quite provocative and must be used in the correct context (which you got right anyway). As a meme it's so powerful that the British Government a few years ago tried to revamp the social importance of the ridiculously underpaid school teaching career with a more appropriate "those who know, teach".

I still believe teaching is a noble profession, even when a teacher is positively deluded to be able to instill something positive or constructive into his pupils' minds. What I tend to mock and despise is when this "teaching" is completely self-referential, self-accredited, self-delusional and totally for profit. Considering how inflationed the male self-help industry is at the moment, it definitely is a game of diminishing returns.

If you know of any good travel or travel bang bloggers, I'd like to read them. Even many travel bloggers are just attention whoring. If you know so good blog, please let me know.

I don't follow this particular corner of the blogosphere very closely, but I do tend to like the bloggers who are the least pretentious and just don't take themselves too seriously. As far as I remember NaughtyNomad (http://naughtynomad.com/) was one of the first online and surely one of the first to report about rarely-beaten tracks like Ethiopia and some other African countries, and lesser Asian territories like Azerbaijan, Mongolia, and even Timor Leste. LOL, I was going to write "he remains one of the few ones who hasn't even tried to monetise from his information" and then I just peeked into his site now and whoops...



OK that leaves me with one of the truest examples of "how it's done and dusted" without a hint of pomp or political correctness.

http://www.whorist.com/

I might not be completely OK with sex tourism, but the above truly remains one of the few 100% free bastions for sex information in Asia. We should applaud Tommo's plain honesty, the kind of honesty and veracity only the most consummated go-go sex warrior will eventually muster.

I'm familiar with Mark Manson. My guess is that his parents believe in him and want to believe that one day their son will be a big TV talk host. I know people who support their kids long after they are grown hoping for a famous person in the family. 30% of the Millennials move back home after college.

Most young guys brains have gone to mush. How they believe working for free for Mark Manson after they have graduated college is going to get them anywhere except more debt. Yeah, they can start their own blog! I feel Manson, like his namesake, has become very arrogant of late. I read his posts about how he selected the people. I felt he was very condescending. I didn't think these people were even living in his apt. I thought they'd just work remotely. Maybe they will live with him and he'll let them pay his rent.
Guys like him want to promote that you are sheeple if work in a real office job and not "working" location independent. I compare these bloggers to actors. Both are glamour jobs. It's a great job for people from rich families, because 99% of them will not be able to make a living doing it.

Check out travel bum on Youtube. This guy is the best of all the travel banger/lovers. He must have spent a fortune over the last 4 years traveling and filming his exploits. He looks good and has a nice personality too. Many of his earlier videos have been taken down. He had NYC, Cancun, Cuba, and Columbia. He tried for long time to get a TV deal and got nothing. His work is very professional and he couldn't make it. The real problem now is there is way too much free content.

He looks good and has a nice personality too. Many of his earlier videos have been taken down. He had NYC, Cancun, and Cuba. He tried for long time to get a TV deal and got nothing. His work is very professional and he couldn't make it.

Funny you mention TravelBum, because for what his "normal" career has been (respected model photographer in NYC), he chose his travel & bang gig to be in the docu-fiction format, only he forgot to tell anybody. His first season was more on the documentary/social commentary side and it was enjoyable for that.

His much anticipated second season started with an infamous episode in Medellin, where he fumbles his way around multiple gorgeous women who don't seem to give him the attention of a red fish in a bowl, until he magically finds a decent looking girl with a nice arse who can't stop talking about her up and coming boob job.

A pretty hot scene of shooting and soft porn ensues, followed by a scene when Yours Truly walks into the girls' apartment with some flowers and a loved-up smile, looking to soothe her post-breast-augmentation pains, only to find her with her gangster boyfriend and a not so excited look.

That pilot episode was taken down a few days later. Several YouTube users from Medellin immediately smelt the fish and suspected that girl was simply a "chica prepago", a "pre-paid girl", aptly pre-paid and scripted to run the only sexually-charged scene and save the day and keep the "Medellin is a total dating paradise" meme alive. Not only that, one or two actually posted a link to a sex cam site where said girl was regularly waving her culito for pesos.

I think TB was in touch with a producer who was probably intrigued by his shooting and photography skills coupled with actual pulling/narrative power. Once the docu-fiction angle was leaked, his credibility was in tatters. Since I have been to Medellin I kept checking back and both his YT site, his website and even his Facebook profile were next to silent.

I now see, courtesy of your links, that he has managed to self-produce Season 2. I don't even want to watch those videos because, at the end of the day, if it's a scripted thing, that means so long you have funds to pay for these semi-pro models to appear as your catches, even the late Stephen Hawking could be made to look like a veritable sex god.

You seem like a real smart guy. As Winston would say, a "truth seeker." This is why I come to this site to find people who look beyond the facade. He went to Cuba and Cuba is all P4P and claimed he met nice girls. Do you have the links to that Colombian Chica that got the boob job. She seemed very slutty. I wanted to see part 2 to that Columbia episode, but don't think he ever released it. What is Medellin like?

His second season was not as good and YouTube deleted a lot of his Iceland videos. I don't know why network TV should give a shit if his reality TV show was fake most of them are totally scripted. The "90 Fiancee" is very scripted. I think the networks didn't pick it up because it had too mush sexual content, but that is only a guess.

That's because fewer and fewer people are even bothered with the truth. They will always prefer people who can keep their bonfires of vanity well fed.



Eels, Beautiful Freak, one of my favourite albums of all times. An immense piece of American counter-narrative.

From the lyrics...

they say i'm mental but i'm just confused
thay say i'm mental but i've been abused
they say i'm mental cause i'm not amused by it all

another anchor man is on the T.V.
he's got that far away and vacant look in his eyes
i turn the channel but nothing is changing
the only truth is that everything's a lie

Medellin is a city of contrasts. It's actually one of the cleanest and most efficient cities in South America, on that Travel Bum was quite correct. That it is a dating paradise where a Gringo, even a good looking one like him, can just walk into a random restaurant with a terrible broken Spanish and chat up a good looking young woman who is having lunch with her Mom, or a girl on her way to college, that's a tall tale by any extent. It would have worked just fine as a tongue-in-cheek comedy, but the overly sexual overtone was completely fabricated.

Everybody knows you need youth, looks, money, good Spanish and even good Salsa skills to pull the real hotties. And since you're interested, here's how the actual Medellin nightlife looks like.

It looks like the fake boob capital of the world. I'm guessing pulling any local girls is very tough. They don't look like they are hurting for a good meal. I wouldn't think they're too poor there either. Do you speak Spanish? I like going to places where they want to speak English such as Eastern Europe or SEA.

I followed Naughty Nomad for about 3 years. At least he travels a lot. I've read his book. It's pretty good. I like Neil Skywalker's book, "Around the World in 80 Girls" a little better.

http://www.aroundtheworldin80girls.com/

Roosh's "Dead Bat in Paraguay" is his best book in my opinion.

I read the intro page for Newbies on the Whorist: very funny.

I wouldn't think they're too poor there either. Do you speak Spanish? I like going to places where they want to speak English such as Eastern Europe or SEA.

I speak a little Spanish but I have a wife from Medellin, whom I met here in the UK, so can't comment on how easy it has been for me to pull. From what I have seen when in Medellin, women are pretty flirtatious and expect the men to play the part pretty well. An anti or a-social nerdy Gringo in chequered shirt with no Spanish and no savoir-faire will not do very well.

I always been curious what percent of this site is married men? How long have you been married to Colombian? Did you find this site before you were married or after. Were you looking to meet a “foreign” woman, or just lucked into it? How often do you go to Columbia?

I dated a Colombian, I met in the USA and she had been here too long and was totally Americanized: asexual and could never shut up. So I quit taking her out and can truly say I learned nothing about Columbia. I’ve met a couple of other Columbians in USA too and they’re totally American. Most foreign girls I meet in America are ruined after living her one month.

Call me optimistic if you will, but I have noticed that the quality of posts and threads has increased significantly over the last five days, since Nolife was last seen.

true....Its Amazing...How NewLife turned himself upside down...How will he live with all the lies he made for himself, he would need an outlet and after few weeks, he would open another account and roll out his lies again

It's hard to generalise, since this forum was certainly founded by an American and has a core of American members, but has been open the whole wide world. I only started dating non-Italians after I moved to London in 1998. After that, there was no way back. I was still tuned towards Asian girls before I met my current wife in Cambridge, and before then I would have never imagined being with a Colombian. She was my first Latin American gf. I wasn't looking to date or marry a foreign, however consider that I was myself a foreigner living abroad (the UK), that was always going to be the most likely scenario.

Guys, just so you all know:

Ginger = jboy = Pocket = MrBlueLight

An overwhelming number posts from these 4 members share same multiple IPs.

There is no such IP sharing pattern with any proven member here. If you need proof of this, perhaps I can ask Winston to get off his duff and provide some screenshots.

You guys wanna ban Ginger and her alter egos or keep her here for entertainment under her various aliases?

Kudos to Rock for exposing MrBlueLight. Rock and I did some investigation together of MrBlueLight's IP's and some of them do match Ginger and Jboy's, who are the same person and was established long ago. So there is a very high probability that MrBlueLight is Ginger, a female in the Philippines who likes to go on forums and pretend to be men and make up stories for some demented reason.

Rock, I would post screenshots of their IP's or just copy and paste them here, but some have said that it is an unethical violation of a forum members privacy if I do that, and may cause other members not to post here anymore too. So maybe we shouldn't do that for now. People will take our word for it I'm sure if we just tell them that the IP's match.

I checked the location of some of MrBlueLight and Newlifeinphilippines IP's. Here are the results. MrBlueLight's most common IP's are from Manila/Makati, and some are from Hawaii too. I don't know how Ginger could have an IP from Hawaii though. Anyone have an explanation for that?

Newlifeinphilippines IP's are mostly from near Modesto, CA and also from Manila.

As to newlifeinphilippines, I'm not sure if he is Ginger or not. But his posts, writing and tone sound more like that of a whiny female than that of a male. Could it be possible that he's Konrad, aka "Philosophical Filipino"?

Regardless, Rock made a good point that after MrBlueLight and Newlifeinphilippines are gone, that the good quality posters should start posting more frequently again. So perhaps it's a good thing.
