Today, according to my dad, I’m not a real man because I didn’t spend my 21st birthday alone in the mountains, hunting to feed myself and building my own survival shelter like he did and his father did. Well sorry dad, you raised me in a city miles from any mountains FML
I agree, your life sucks 1 043
You deserved it 141

You should have celebrated by dumpster diving for food and sheltering under a bridge. That'll show your dad and grandpa real survival skills, those tree-hugging fairies.

Silly masculine rite of passage by the mentality of a foolish libertarian. There's nothing wrong with a libertarian lifestyle that your dad and grandad did but there's nothing wrong with being a city dweller. And like you said, since he raised you in urban environments, he's to blame for you not being a 'real man' to his standards. Don't let it bother you, OP. You're a real man in your own right so disregard his opinion.

any idiot can survive 24 hours... how is that a test of anything. your dad probably ate a mercurial fish under a wet tree and then went home next morning hungover. sounds boring

This sounds like an over exaggeration. Probably more like you wining "I don't want to go to camp. too many bugs..."
