- Comment on [deleted] 1 day ago:
I doubt there is an adult alive that has kids old enough to have issues like this that hasn’t also had issues like this. They really aren’t that uncommon. Google the percentage of women that get them during pregnancy. And men also can have terrible bathroom habits that lead to them often using the toilet to escape for some quiet time (guilty as charged).
Just remember though, these people wiped your ass for several years so I doubt very likely they will give it much thought.
If my kid came tome with this problem I’d be like “yeah those can be quite painful and uncomfortable, let’s go get this looked at”. Just remember first and foremost, your parents are just people and likely want the best for you. This really isn’t a reason to be embarassed.

Suicided.
- Comment on In the 1985 movie Teen Wolf, when Scott Howard turned into a teen wolf, would he have had a human penis or a wolf penis? 1 week ago:
I thought they were related but not the same species. Apparently a dog is just a sub-species and the actually scientific name is Canis Lupus Familiaris. So TIL… thanks!!
But I was right and they were close enough. I just didn’t realize how close 🤣

Don’t make me google what a wolf penis looks like… I’m just going to assume a dog is close enough.

Granted he is a higher profile target but he likely has lots of cyber security people going over everything on that machine with a fine tooth comb. And he still has a piece of tape over the camera.

Fuck off Larry
- Comment on Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps. 1 week ago:
TIL…
The abbreviation E.E.U.U. (often written as EE. UU.) stands for Estados Unidos (United States) in Spanish. This abbreviation follows a grammatical rule in Spanish where doubling the initial letters of each word indicates plurality
So you taught me something today I did not know. Thank you!!

Zuck always has a piece of tape over his camera when you see his laptop. That’s all you need to know.
- Comment on Did UCLA Just Cure Baldness? 1 week ago:
I’m with you but I would like the option honestly since I’ve been bald for over 30 years. Never having a bad hair day and razors being cheaper than haircuts are definitely a plus. But hitting your head on anything is almost always some sort of gash.
But damn if I don’t have dreams sometimes of running my fingers through my hair.

When my head is freezing and I don’t have a hat handy I’m pretty sure that’s not a cosmetic issue.

- Comment on Is Social Media Doing You Dirty? Apply the CUE Test. 1 week ago:
Reddit felt like that to begin with too after the great Digg migration. When it gets popular is when the trolls and bots show up and ruin it for everyone. Some people just get too much pleasure from making other people feel like shit.
- Comment on Elon Musk just offered to buy OpenAI for $97.4 billion 1 week ago:
I’ve never understood how you can take out a loan to buy a company, turn around and place all that debt on the company you just bought, and have no personal ramifications when the company goes belly up because the debt load is too high.
- Comment on Elon Musk just offered to buy OpenAI for $97.4 billion 1 week ago:
But they aren’t required to sell though.

Make the jeep 50% cheaper and I’d deal the ads. Otherwise …
- Comment on Miniature Hard Drives 1 week ago:
Yeah I had a camera back in the day that had one of these. I thought it was the shit.
No we have 1.5 TB MicroSD … which is 4600 of those 340mb drives…. this makes my brain hurt. And that camera is only about 20 years old.

- Comment on PSN Is Still Down After 14 Hours And No One Knows Why 1 week ago:
I only have the one ps5. I did have a ps4 if that matters. Tried to play like 5 games this afternoon. All of them had a lock on the icon and when I tried to play it complained about PSN.
