Speaking of Extra Credit I just wanna say, years ago I tried listening to y'all but it just didn't work for me, lotta responding to stuff with just "WOW REALLY? UGH" instead of, y'know, riffing and discussion, etc. So I gave it up back then, but I've given it another chance this week and it's so much better now and I'm really enjoying it, so good job y'all :shobon:

Yeah, half the reason we cut our earlier stuff and are re-recording the remainder is because we felt it was giving people a bad impression of where we're at now. Glad to hear you're enjoying our new approach!

AITA for messing with husband's phone and disabling his vibrating mode because it was distracting him?
quote:

I will go to the core of the post.

It started from a month or so when hubby changed his mode to vibrating because it started disturbing him and everyone around him at the work. I called him when I came home earlier than him to ask what he wants, if he's going to buy something on his way or we just cook. I started making multiple calls to no response, until after a while, when he called me what I wanted to talk about. It annoyed me but I asked no questions until it started happening frequently later.

I finally asked him about it and he said that it's cause it felt so good, apparently, the long pockets of his pants touch his penis so when his phone vibrates, it vibrates his dick too and he said he calls me again after there is no more from me. I was enraged by the ridiculousness and he brushed it off as no problem.

Later, I went to his phone and changed his mode to sound which made him angry and mad so it now has a lock mode since he can't trust me anymore, he called it an rear end in a top hat mode. Like, I'm sorry but how else would I make you respond to my calls?? It just sounds very ridiculous and shallow, AITA???

Now I'm just thinking of the occasional moments in fetish episodes where some poster will get authentically freaked out at some other poster's fetish content, like the bit from the gay giant fetish board ep where someone is like "ha ha, what if you accidentally swallowed a guy??" and the first response is a dude who is horrified by the premise and talks about how miserable and guilty he would be

I'm actually OK with most of the people featured on the show

Uh, well, except the guy who kept inserting sharpened wires into his dick even after he started bleeding nonstop from it,

Or the guy who kept stopping his incestuous three way with his cousin to "jam on his bass guitar"

Nevermind, I guess, lol

Sure enough, the very first sentence is enough to confirm this will be one of the angry-reaction episodes.

Also, is the doc submitter Napoleon Blownapart the same as the youtuber? I'd assume not, as the pun seems obvious enough that it's easy to see two people coming to it independently, but it would be hilarious if it was.

Zarla is probably my least favorite of the bunch, but I can never have enough Frank West. To Zarla's credit, she stopped wearing super noisy jewelry during recording. I did appreciate that a lot.

It also makes me happy that Zarla took a break for like ten years and then started appearing on the podcast again.

I'm trying to figure out what the difference is between this and NoFap, and how exactly redditors can tell that things belong in one and not the other.

semen retention is about hoarding your cum like a dragon so your brain becomes swollen and you can ascend to a higher plane of existence, and they look down on nofap because those assholes are abstaining from jackin it to magically manifest a girlfriend who they will give all their seed to like fools

Djeser

it's crow time again

To elaborate, the core philosophy of nofap is that you're wasting your time/energy on porn and will become a gigachad meme if you can resist jerking off. It's a kind of Jordan-Peterson-clean-your-room thing, and to the extent that it works it's mainly just a self-control exercise. Reddit being reddit, they have to make it weird and obsess over the taxonomy of jerking off.

Semen retention also says that you're wasting your time/energy on porn, but with an added mysticism angle. It's not the self-control that you're cultivating, it's literal spiritual energy. It's why they're weirder about nocturnal emissions, for instance--to nofapists, that's just an involuntary response to limiting your jackin' time; to semen retenters, it is their body hampering their spiritual ascension.

It's kind of like the difference between r/drugs and Cantelmoism. They're both into psychotropics, it's just one wants to trip balls, while the other wants to trip balls but also talk to god.

They say the fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live

Howdy, folks. It's your old forums pal, Lou of "Lou Reads the Internet for YOU!"

Just a heads up. I will most likely be taking loureads.com and the entire podcast down in the near future. While I have toyed with reviving the podcast and doing a look back at how badly some episodes have aged, I have to face the facts. There is a very real possibility that the podcast is actually hurting my job prospects at this point. Sadly, people don’t seem to be able to look past the content to the craft. I don’t have any direct evidence that this is the case but based on previous negative interactions it certainly has the potential to be a problem. You may recall a guy said I was unfit to be around children when I was coaching Little League because of the podcast. Anyway...

If you want to make sure you have downloaded everything you want to keep I recommend doing that soon. Feel free to share the podcast as torrents or whatever. I have put a lot of the episodes on my YouTube and I may have to deal with that in the future as well but right now the blog is fairly problematic. Ah, the late 2000s. Eternally laying the foundations for future cancelation attempts.

I hope to keep being invited to be on the F Plus to read nonsense in the future!
