I bought mead for this christmas. 30 proof fermented honey, water and spices.

Mead gives me the worst hangovers. My friend Hendrick and I used to go out for Mead Nights in the early 2000's. Like absolutely the worst. It may have been the most terrible first hour of waking up I've ever had, and I've gone through heroin withdrawals. Our Grog Nights were always fun though! Since it's just rum, water, and lime juice you wake up feeling like a million bucks!

I've been on this godforsaken slice of the internet for over a decade and I have maybe a page worth of posts because I'm terrified of you clever motherfuckers. I'm just spergy enough that I don't Get Jokes properly and I'm only funny through the medium of other people being funny, so every time I post here I worry that I'll be that bad post that gets mocked. I read obsessively, and I feel invested in this place and the drama and the posting "celebrities" but I'm scared to actually try to fit in, even in the grey forums. :(

How do you get one of those tan/brown tags on your avatar with the random text? Where did that come from? Why do people get them? I just don't get it.

That was from a donation drive IIRC

That one didn't count because I just factually answered the question really quick so here's another

So, like, I find it really hot if my partner gets off before I enter them. Like, if I get a girl off with my hand and or mouth before, then enter, I'm cumming right away. Is that like a sign I'm a considerate lover, or am I just weird?

I mean, it's probably more convenient if you don't find it so hot that you finish right away, but diff'rent strokes etc etc

Sex Goon: that’s a totally normal thing that lots of guys get scared by but it just means that you are either insecure about your relationship or your performance. If you get a woman off the first time you hook up with her, regardless of where your dick is, you are HEAD & SHOULDERS above most of her partners unless she is super confident and aggressive in asking for what she wants.

Scared of posting goon, I was like that back in 2001 where I would have a dictionary site opened to make sure I wasn't misspelling anything and proof reading every post twice before letting it go. Now you can post what ever dumb poo poo you want and as long as you don't make a habit of it you'll be just fine. Being the butt of the joke isn't so bad as long as you can laugh at yourself and embrace it. Trust me, I've been a lovely poster here for 16 years!

I largely lurked for a few years. Then I tried to make good posts. Then I got a name change. Then I stopped caring.

People didn’t start PMing me or quoting my posts until I stopped worrying about what other people would find funny and just started trying to amuse myself.

Truthfully I still end up only finishing about 80% of the posts I start but the moral of the story is that you will never be free to shitpost until you shitpost for yourself. This above all: to thine own self be a retard

I might have some details wrong, but I think it's
a) Posting an image directly from another site without rehosting it can eat into that site's bandwidth every time someone views the page it was posted on. Many site owners won't give a poo poo, but some smaller ones where the cost actually matters to them may get pissed, possibly leading to
b) The site owner can change the image at any time to something NWS, putting your account at risk.

Whether it's from your own personal dropbox or a random website the image will break.

This dead website will still burn out images. Hell, even twitpics sometimes get broke.

I remember posting on GameFAQs, back in like 2005, and forums posters would grab images from wherever and they never changed to goatse.

It definitely happened here back when this website was more culturally important (and back when the amount of traffic SA could generate was more significant).

Bandwidth is still A Thing for some people (you still pay for egress bandwidth on personal websites), but most people have long since figured out that it's better to rehost on Imgur or social media simply for reliability (and to avoid the potential problem above).
