Brutally Funny Responses to a Man’s ‘Alpha Male’ Boast

Ego Check

People often tell stories about themselves, usually highlighting their best traits. But what happens when someone’s self-description is more than just confident – it’s downright outlandish?

Brutally Funny Responses to a Man’s ‘Alpha Male’ Boast

Some people have encountered this situation before and are ready for a complex comeback. An astute commenter stated that they ask these guys where their pack is. A few men responded with the quip, “I’m like a lone wolf.”

Been There, Done That

Several people pointed out that the theory that this term comes from the work of a scientist, David Mech, who coined the term in his book in 1970 about wolves in captivity.

Experience Speaks Out

A series of people in the forum responded with logic. It was a hilarious response that paid to the entire idea of the alpha male.
