ROFL This is hilarious, I love The Onion!

ROFL I ate The Onion for a second, they are scarily good at writing plausible satire!

I love The Beaverton, their distinctive satire has always tickled my funny bone! They are the same level as The Onion.

ROFL Not once, I felt the implication of it happening a lot was there…I guess that I was wrong. 😤

It’s fine! Misunderstandings happen, I’m just as guilty of misunderstanding as anyone else. 🫢

Oh, no dude gets away with handsome pass, I still shut them down regardless! I’m only amused, because a handsome dude should not have trouble getting action if he’s suave.

Unfortunately, based on the stories my female friends and co-workers share about the audacity of straight men who’ve felt entitled to sex after paying for dinner…It’s a common issue that women experience in the dating scene. Very often the women who told these stories are cautious and aren’t too forward, given they are concerned by sending the wrong message. Yet, it wasn’t uncommon for the subject to come up, that often was a date ender.

Personally, as a gay man, it didn’t happen much because Grindr is where most go if they want a hookup.

Could you clarify what you mean sexist in response to my comment? I want to be sure we’re on the same page before replying.

ROFL Oof, this has happened to me as well!

For the most part, I agree! I started with a dumb phone, moved on to the Samsung series of Android phones up until the inevitable would happen. I really liked those phones too, as theming is a passion of mine! I did switch to the Pixel 7 Pro because I at the time, I wasn’t too distrusting of Google. Alas, if only the pivot to LLM BS never happened and it remained a mostly background affair. The autocorrect with better spellchecking/grammar were nice, but everything else is a PITA.

I might be if you started on Android but then transitioned to iPhone 15+ and iOS after Google started to cram too much LLM Bullshit into Android. Otherwise, I had been a Windows person first, before I couldn’t tolerate Microsoft’s BS any longer. I should’ve left some more tech history in there, but this meme is certainly my current self!

I’m the Tech Conservative with an iPhone, uses the Fedora Distro as my ride or die at the moment! I feel pretty balanced…Though, I do have a desire to hop to other distros for a while before going back to where it all started: Ubuntu. Ubuntu started my passion for Linux; opened my world to FOSS, issues with Privacy, and viewing most companies with neutrality, unless they’ve shown their dark side!

ROFL If he were handsome, I’d probably be mildly amused but still shut him down.

ROFL If someone did that to me on a date, I’d be out the door too! A date should be a little bit getting to know you/flirty. If you’re after a piece of ass…There are apps for that. 🫢

Wrong community!

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

chortles This meme is the embodiment of my first run ins with other gay men. To be fair, I was a mentally unstable vers dude before I cultivated mental stability within my mind.

This is why I use this music with a care. To not only stay sensitive to it, but also due to not having to absolutely be up for something every day.

The Sonic drowning soundtrack will wake me out of a dead fucking sleep. That’s what I use for alarms that I can’t afford to sleep through.

Hah, I even got this pun, so this is a good one as a casual Linux user. You can stay!

Those that adopt such an outlook tend to be far removed from the concept of empathy for other human beings…Others who don’t believe as them or live as them are simply in the wrong. It’s such a dismal way to exist in my opinion.
