  • I once drove drunk. This was long enough ago the statute of limitations has expired. I shouldn’t have done it, I was really lucky that I didn’t hurt someone or get arrested. For the next 15ish years that I still drank, my limit was 1 drink if I was driving.

    This was before Uber & Lyft were a thing, but I still could’ve made arrangements with the bar manager “look dude your bartenders kept serving me when I was visibly drunk, so let me leave my car here overnight without towing it so I can take a cab home, and I won’t say shit to anyone.”











  • Sounds like I’d pass out from the pain if I tried anything like this.

    I had weird friends in college, which was appropriate since I was (and still am) pretty weird myself. One such friend, who was heavily into body piercing & body modification (talked regularly about wanting to split his tongue) took it upon himself to warp my fragile little mind by showing me unsolicited pictures of sounding. When I recoiled in horror and shut my eyes, he then proceeded to tell me of cock & ball torture enthusiasts who supposedly stick a sounding rod in their urethra and then hit their dicks with a hammer. He was a little too excited when describing this to me, which makes me wonder if he ever tried it himself.


  • Not sure if stupid is the word I’d use, but we tend not to pick up on subtlety very well.

    Paraphrasing from memory a comment I saw in a similar thread on a different site:

    • What’s subtle to you is entirely invisible to him
    • What’s obvious to you is still mostly invisible to him
    • What’s embarrassingly obvious to you is just starting to become subtle and therefore potentially noticeable to him

    We don’t have nearly as much practice on picking up subtlety, and many of us are well aware of the potential blowback of perceiving interest and acting on it (“ew gross i’m just being nice you creep”).

    We aren’t mind readers. Frankly, if I was a mindreader, I wouldn’t be hanging out on Lemmy. I’d be hanging out in the casino at the poker tables.





  • We have a turkish van cat. He’s very loving and affectionate, and isn’t just the noisiest cat I’ve ever met, he’s noisier than every other cat I’ve ever had combined. My favorite thing is when I walk in the front door, I’ll hear a thud as he jumps down from wherever he was napping, then he sprints toward me while meowing the whole way, and ask for all the pets I can possibly give him. Naturally, I’m happy to oblige him.
