I thought food fight was just because all those people's movies are insane and terrible. Or I'm mixing up with a different food movie that's poo poo.

You're probably thinking of Sausage Party which is another awful CGI film about food coming alive in a supermarket after lights out. It was a huge commercial success and as a result we'll probably see a bunch more films like it in the not too distant future. :suicide:

ASMR does exist. Videos of really skilled work, like calligraphy or bricklaying, can be super relaxing and a little entrancing to watch.
Of course, the term's already been co-opted by people jerking off so it's not a word I would use anymore.

That's not what ASMR is, though I guess you can't really complain about a term losing its meaning when there was never any real evidence or research that it was real in the first place.

There's more evidence and research that it's real than there is that it isn't. I mean, the name is absolutely stupid and was made up to give it an air of legitimacy because they apparently felt calling it "head tingles" sounded stupid, but there does seem to be some kind of underlying mechanism that probably should be studied further.

Here's another feel-good bullshit solution for the third world, that won't actually work half the time and when it does, would still be useless. Which they might've realized if they built a working prototype. Of course it's up to almost 400% funding now on igg:

I totally get the head tingles from some ASMR stuff. Like that "3D sound" barbershop mp3 that went around ten years ago. But then I looked it up on youtube and found all the sexy ladies whispering in your ear and uhhhh.... :yikes: no thank you.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

What the gently caress is a head tingle? Is it only like a certain type of person that gets this?

Pretty much the same sensation one might get if someone is using an electric trimmer on the back of your neck; like a shiver sensation from your head down your side(s). I don't know if it's common for people. If I had to guess, I'd say people who are ticklish would be more susceptible. I don't find it particularly enjoyable personally, but it's not surprising that the weirdos that seek it out would make it into a sexual thing.

Huh. weirdly enough I think I get that sometimes when I encounter really old surroundings or impressive anthropology museums. I also remember getting that sensation once when I went back to my old elementary school for a broadcasting project when I was in highschool

It's mysterious and mildly pleasant but I can't imagine seeking it out or wanting it on a continuous basis but then again I don't get why people would use benzos recreationally so to each their own I guess

People get that from all sorts of different things in general. Lots of people get it from music they like for example. It's just some people really into ASMR who insist they get it a super special way from ASMR that's better than all other ways.

If watching youtube videos that give you a fuzzy, scratchy feeling inside of your head is what does it for you then who am I to judge.
