So, you're not sending noods then?

I do like to send noods (recipe is adding salt & herbs to the noodle water, then adding cheese to herb noodles)
That's hot.
For my spotted dick recipe, I like to let the raisins rehydrate in a bowl of lemon juice. Really gives the flavor a little extra pop of brightness.
salted noodle water? well look at mr. fucking gourmet over here, sheesh
Add a pinch of oregano and basil as well (maybe even some freshly ground pepper if you're looking for a zing) and they're good to eat as-is! Very seriously, tried this once while high, and now it's the only way I boil any kind of pasta. Nothing can beat that "core" zest you get when the base is well seasoned! And they complement seasoning cheeses really well, makes for a neat snack!
This felt like hearing one of those hardcore grannies dropping a truth bomb on their spoilt grandchild in public, and all people in a 10m radius shut up and start thinking if it also applies to them.
The only dick pix I want to see are dik-dik pix.
How can you tell a male dik-dik from a female dik-dik?
Look for the dik-dik dick
Dik-diks are tiny....
With a prehensile nose. And fangs. And smelly glands.
And yes, so tiny they would probably roll coal in a lifted truck
As gross as it is, the people sending dick pics aren't looking for your approval, it's a numbers game. If you're confident enough to hang that dong, someone is gonna be interested. Like I said it's gross but they don't do it because it doesn't work, you catch a fish with enough throws
If they did that irl they would most likely get arrested in most countries so it's kinda fucked up that they think it's still fine to do online
There was a guy in my fraternity who did this. Every time there was a party of some kind he would swing by all the girls and introduce himself. "Hi, I'm Curry, wanna fuck?" (Curry was his nickname). He always went home with someone.
As long as he was accepting the no's gracefully, and wasn't an asshole to any of them... Then yeah, that's a pretty honest way to play the numbers game and find someone who is also dtf.
And this was at a frat party... not work or church... so appropriate time and place as well
Did he ever settle down?
He always took the no's gracefully (sometimes many dozens a night). I have no idea if he settled down. We lost contact after graduation. It's been 20 years, so I hope he did!
I mean did he show everyone his dick without asking if they wanted to see it though? That's what I meant by likely getting arrested if doing it irl, comparing it to sending dick pics.
But ye I guess at fraternity parties it's a different vibe.
So why would they get mad of someone doesn't react? The people asking me to help them get their 50 trillion dollar inheritance out of the country don't seem to mind when I don't reply.
We know why they do it. That doesn't make it any less appropriate. These guys don't care who they make uncomfortable in their quest for validation. It's like a kid that throws a fit to gain attention, uncaring about who they might hurt in the process. Except unlike a developing child, these men should be mature enough to know better.
It is. But the reality of those sites is that for a guy the vast majority of your messages will never be read. You are shouting at the void and hoping for the best. This does not incentivize taking the time and psychological investment to write thoughtful messages, because you will send comparatively few and the lack of response is harder to deal with when you're more invested. It incentivizes sending the quickest messages that you care about the least to as many as possible. The guy didn't send her a dick pic, he sent every woman in a 50 mile radius the same dick pic hoping that with enough sheer volume he'll get a response.
It's basically spam that wants to fuck you, because non-spam options don't get you anywhere.
Does it ever work at all? even 1 in a million times seems too many to me.
I've only known of that working in Grindr or sites like that where thirsty population is high, and where most people are seeking for that. But in normal social media I wouldn't expect to ever work, at all.
This genuinely made me laugh!
I don't see the relevance of her day job here?
While I agree with the fact that this kind of behaviour [i.e. randomly "hanging brain" (my new favourite idiom), unsolicited, in someone's DMs] is SO many shades of shitty in whichever context it happens, in this case in particular it really does work for building up context and highlighting the dichotomy between the type of people who send dick pics and the type of people they sometimes reach.
As a bottom line, it should serve as a good enough cautionary tale about keeping one's damned junk in their pants unless someone wants to see it, because one'll most likely end up looking like an utter asshole while also potentially ruining someone else's mood for literally no good reason whatsoever.
So apparently if you aren't a fucking scientist, then dick pics are okay to send to you.
The "type" of people shouldn't fucking matter.
Yes, that was my point!
I'm sorry, I really don't have the time to do reading comprehension with you, I've put it pretty clearly in the very first Ideal I've listed. Also, reread my conclusion and see how much someone's job shows up in what I've written.
Have a good'un.
Plot twist, some of guys sending might also be similarly educated and employed at her level, but still will exhibit the Neanderthal brain on occasion.
It's just painting a picture. The story could just as easily been putting together a family dinner and focusing on what everyone's preferences that you've learned over the years. Or something more Lemmy based would be dealing with a production issue as a developer and then BAM dick pic.
It's just story telling to me.
skill issue
I took a picture of a sparrow once. They’re called Spatz in German. In my local dialect, they’re called "Spotz" ʃpɔts in english it’s pronounced like "shpowts" - which is one of the words used for penis as well. Picture in German is Bild and in the local dialect it’s "büdl" ˈbʏdl in English pronounced like "boodle" (you have no pronunciation for ü).
So in my local dialect, a sparrow-pic is pronounced the same as a dick-pick. Spotzbüdl - ʃpɔtsˈbʏdl - spowthsboodle
Here, have some unsolitised tits and boobys
We kind of do have a pronunciation of ü The cornish town Bude, would be pronounced by locals as “Büd” It’s how I explained to my kids how to handle umlaut words, if it was the English word “lane“ imagine it’s spelled ‘laen’ and then get rid of the e to make ‘län’. It’s rare but some English words still use æ as a sound not a pair of letters. Spelæological for caving for instance. Often simplified to speleological.
I feel like it’s easier to tell English speakers to make an “eee” sound with their lips and then pronounce the vowel in question (ä, ö, ü) with the rest of their mouth (at least that’s how we do it when we sing in German, I know choral German doesn’t always line up with proper German pronunciation).
Your spotz is adorable! So short and fluffy!
Power fantasy right there. Feels like a very self important person.
I actually like to receive dick pics.
