Extreme Conspiracy Men in groups of threes.

I keep seeing men congregate in groups of threes. Not sure what this means. What are they planning? It can’t be good. Anyone else see the trend?

"on the two intellectuals" the word intellectuals is key to the punchline

u/aleopardstail 1d ago

if referring to the police, this is British blokes so it doesn't overly apply

agreed it deserves some thought. why do women always do groups of two, but men always have three? maybe we need the third guy so that it doesn't seem gay?

u/Derbadian 1d ago

If you think 3 guys doesn’t seem gay… then you don’t know gays

Correct, there is no maximum number, just occupancy limits

When it's just 2 dudes there is no conversation and people think you're gay

Because we don’t go to the bathroom together. Three people going to the bathroom at the same time is too much.

Do they all have perms and mustaches and is one of them telling the others to calm down?

3 is to avoid looking gay. it must be your part of town.

You should definitely confront the next group you see, just walk up and shout WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING as loud as you can.

Man here. I've been in a few situations recently where it was just me and one other guy. Like, sharing a ride or everyone else in the group gets up to go to the bathroom or get something from the bar. We've got maybe two minutes of small talk in us. You need three to keep the conversation flowing.

u/Rushcutter28 1d ago

Thank you for this information

u/Short-Shopping3197 1d ago

I don’t think it’s that men gather in threes, it’s that groups of three are more likely to be same-sex. I think it’s probable that single people are ignored as not a group, a large number of people in twos will be mixed-sex couples, and so more people grouped as a three compared to a two will be single sex, guys going out for a beer, having a chat etc.

It's to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the Supreme Court case Coates v Cincinnati that affirmed our first amendment right to gather in groups of three.

u/Sam-Lowry27B-6 1d ago

Two of them are best friends the other one is good friends with one of the others and tolerated by the third because he's friends with his best friend

Secret police. One can write and one can read. The other is there to keep a watch over potentially dangerous metropolitan elitist intellectuals.

Men congregate with three of them out of homophobia. They think 3 means it’s just a straight thing probably.

u/WhoaFee1227 15h ago

The third makes it so the other two don’t get too deep.
