  • The text makes me wonder if they’re either a fan of a specific brand energy drink or if they’re advocating for metrication in the US.

    The white font on black background plates aren’t bad looking. The black font on white background are boring as all getout and make me miss the old plates that had cowboys & space shuttles.

    The car is kinda lame, in a generic “I have more money than sense and am not afraid to show it.”

    This looks like eastbound Louetta Rd at Stablewood Farms in Cypress TX.

  • 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.
