Here is your chance to be a superhero … kinda. | Shutterstock

January 30, 2025

Guys, when it comes to impressing and winning over a girl, you got to do whatever it takes, right? Even if that means doing a little roleplaying to make yourself look like a hero.

Shazali Sulaiman can help you do that, for a nominal fee. Sulaiman recently began offering a “villain for hire” service designed to help people step into the hero role and impress their partners. People provide him with a time and location, and Sulaiman will show up looking and acting like a jerk so you can take him down and show your woman what kind of man you really are (but probably aren’t). No word on whether any sound effects are added for an additional price. 

In an age where everyone seems to be making money off ridiculous things, I give this man credit for doing so while helping others out in the process. Even if we all know it wasn’t really his idea, and people have been doing this since the 1950s.
