Steve Vader posted:I used to have the big "human suffering as entertainment" argument against horror movies, until I realized that pretty much all drama is also deriving entertainment from watching other people suffering adversity of some kind. Even in a goofball comedy, good chance you're gonna see a nut shot or something.

true crime is different bc people are making money on the suffering of victims and their families as well as often sensationalizing the criminals and often helping elevate them to cult status. but i think if you're applying that logic to, like...people who are choosing to post their own stories to AITA, it's time to take a breathe. That's just good ol-fashioned rumor-mill type gabbing and story-swapping, which is really human and not some sign of an inherent evil or moral failing.

I want to know how jacking off can make the sound of change rattling and also how it can be so loud that it wakes someone up in a totally different part of the house. So much so that I think about it weekly.

I have literal murderers, arsonists, and worse in my family (which I haven't spoken to since I was a kid) so the true crime stuff is an assurance that it isn't just my family that's full of monsters. Humans have always been fascinated with death and malfunction. Like someone else pointed out, at the core we're still just apes.

There was the mashed potatoes with crisps and raisins in it one. That was a hell of a thing. Or the white lady that completely turbofucked her entire catering career by being hella racist about the cook for a big Chinese restaurant in NY.

AITA for effectively banning my nephew from masturbating?quote:Throwaway for privacy, couldn't think of a non-offensive name. The noise: quote:The part that makes the noise is the ejaculation. AFAIK, it's supposed to sound like "clink clink clink" but it sounds more like dumping coins into a bucket. quote:I don't know that it can be made quieter. Male ejaculation makes noise (don't know how people say it doesn't) and his is louder than normal and we have thin walls and sensitive babies. edgeman83 fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Apr 16, 2024 |

I'll fall for the Tuesday, I suppose. My (25F) boyfriend (25M) keeps asking me to invest in his "soup tube" business idea, and I am not sure how to deal with it quote:I have been living with my boyfriend for about 7 months. Two weeks ago he sat me down and presented a powerpoint presentation with his business idea. I knew he'd been working on an idea, but he didn't want to tell me about it until it was finished. Based on his enthusiasm and his prior seemingly intelligent nature, I thought maybe it'd be a pretty cool idea.

I still felt like I should try going to the cops, but everytime I wanted to, I kept getting nervous and chickened out.

Chaturbate; it makes a jangling "change pouring into a bucket" sound when you tip a streamer. EDIT: That said, she was insistent that ejaculation was what made the "change sound", which is just weird because presumably at some point she's probably had sex?
