i suppose this isn't the place but what is the justification of teasing another being that completely relies on your generosity compassion and empathy for their existence the answer is none. if you disagree it should be an opportunity for reflection. the impulse to dillute this sentiment and launder it through jokes is perverse. inshallah

Subjunctive posted:I feel like there’s an important difference between “teasing” and “terrifying”, but maybe I just grew up soft. Terrifying is the time my sister locked like, six year old me out of the house in the middle of the night while my mother hid in the trees making spooky animal sounds during a point where everyone in the area was really going hard on how dangerous wild animals were and that if they bite you you'll get rabies and die horribly and there were just rabid coyotes and raccoons everywhere. Teasing is how they made fun of me for being scared that night literally any time they met a new friend of mine or any time there's any kind of family gathering.

Hey neat, one of those "wait, why is everyone quiet and sad all of a sudden?" moments in the wild! Nothing like learning the hard way that poo poo went way wrong in your childhood. I'm just glad it's not me this time.

Hm. No, no I think I will continue to gently give my 15 year old niece poo poo for being scared of ET as a kid, when it was her favorite movie in the world and no one made her watch it against her will. She *knew* she didn't like the alien but by god she still insisted on watching it over and over and over, hiding behind someone every drat time he was on screen. She was comforted accordingly, but she did that to her drat self.

Yeah, I tease my kid about all sorts of stuff, there is no trauma from it, and no fear involved of any kind as far as I can tell. It’s just callbacks to dumb stuff she did growing up, mostly.

I think it’s probably good to be lightly teased by your loved ones so you can learn how to handle unfair criticism in a safe and loving environment before you have to experience it in real life. But I don’t have kids and am not a behavioral therapist, so my thoughts probably don’t mean much.

Kids are also really good at letting you know what kind of teasing they're ok with and what upsets them. My daughter thinks it's hilarious when you flick water in her face but "you're covered in dog hair, hold still while I vacuum you" involved a whole lot of me apologizing and promising I wouldn't do that "yes you're right that wasn't funny and dad sure messed up that time didn't he."

Just like with pranks you gotta know your audience though, and there's always some rear end in a top hat who crosses the line into traumatizing

Just pondering swirlie logistics here. Is the gist of it that american toilets are like really really full of water? Up to the brim or something? How does one avoid splashback during regular use? Or is the extra depth required for the swirlening occasioned by means of a timely flush

American toilets are full of water basically up to the gonads of the user making the difference between a normal American toilet and an overflowing one basically within the margin of error.

Submerging the poop does help a bit with the smell. Plus all I've heard are horror stories about those German shelf toilets  Inceltown posted:The citizen ofthe USA is more poo poo than human. If you want to laugh just look up how mad they got when the government tried to push low flow - aka normal - toilets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRhO9sDezVk e: I will admit the superior design is one with a button on the tank to just flush the bowl water after taking a piss, and a handle on the side to do a full tank empty to wash away turds.

Takes No Damage posted:Submerging the poop does help a bit with the smell. Plus all I've heard are horror stories about those German shelf toilets Our toilet bowls have maybe an inch or two more water, and the number of times that is sufficient to completely submerge a turd and consequently almost completely nullify the smell is not insignificant. The real terror is our shameful lack of bidets.

in their defence it does help with the smell. and i found splashback to be more a function of drop height so the fact you're making GBS threads into water that's much closer gives the turd less drop time to build up enough velocity to generate appreciable splashback. the worst thing about american (public) toilets are the huge gaps around the cubicles, i assume for prioritising something stupid like discouraging homeless people from doing drugs rather than general comfort and privacy
