  • What do they imply?

    I know that these stories are often accused of being fake, but I guess I don’t understand the context of the response. It seems like the responder is saying “go to the doctor regardless of whether you actually have a problem requiring a doctor.” Which I guess could be good advice in some circumstances, but … Maybe I’m just taking things too literally.

    Thanks for the answer!

    If you really want it, I can send it to you directly, or you can find it by googling “spider blowjob creepy” or something like that. (I specifically say “googling” because I was unsuccessful in finding it on DDG. I didn’t try other search engines.)

    I don’t know what the gif’s origin is, but it was semi frequently posted on Reddit. To shamefully continue referencing Reddit, this probably wouldn’t be your proudest fap. (I originally said “I can assure you” but then again … You did request the gif and I don’t know you.)

    edit: Improved my originally very cavalier approach to grammar. Did not change the message of the post.

    spoiler

    edit 2: Apparently the appeal of this was more widespread than I thought. I didn’t want to post it publicly because I don’t know how all of the clients handle image previews and didn’t want to force the image on anyone; also I couldn’t validate the quality or security of the website I found when searching it, but if you really want to see a spider blowing a guy, here it is.





  • Not only is this true and annoying, but other things about the ads are getting worse, too.

    I recently had to factory reset my TV and, after the first time I opened the YouTube app, immediately had to find the “don’t play video preview” option. It worked, except for the huge banner ad at the top of the list of videos, which still saw fit to play with deafening sound when I didn’t immediately change the video selection. I can’t find a setting to disable this.

    Also, I’ve noticed the “fewer ads for this long video” message popping up during videos longer than thirty minutes (and now it seems like longer than twenty minutes). Not only is that message condescending like they’re doing me a favor, but I’m pretty sure it’s not true, at least not by much; and the ads are definitely longer and mostly unskippable.

    Like someone else says in this thread, it feels like extortion.




  • Once I carried a ginormous pair of scissors to the room where we keep our cat’s bowls so that I could cut open the food bags. As I walked out, the hand holding the scissors bumped into the doorframe, driving the blades into my gut. Fortunately, there was discomfort, but no penetration. “Phew!” thought I; “I’ll be more careful next time I’m carrying these scissors.”

    Anyway, on my way out of the cat room, the exact same thing happened in reverse. Since then, I haven’t handled those scissors, nor inadvertently stabbed myself with any others.
