I dunno, I more often see this phrase combined with masturbation to porn the user cannot believe they masturbated to afterward. There is a sense of clarity following ejaculation, but it doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with a sexual partner or their perceived attractiveness.

Edit: I’m a little sad that people are downvoting you. To be clear, I think your explanation is just as valid as mine. Just because my experience with the phrase is different doesn’t mean your explanation didn’t add to the conversation, and I liked reading it.

I disagree with your takes sometimes (although not since I switched to PieFed), but you always have an argument and I’ve never seen you have one I couldn’t see any merit in. As good as it gets, imo.

You’re not delusional. You read the book, and you believe in something. No one should have a problem with that.

I don’t think the guy in the article read the book or believes in anything. Seems like he’s pretty much shit.

I coveted mine (variations of the LUCCA A53) for about seven years before I could manage the funds. It still feels absurd but I can’t argue with the results.

I gave up completely and just bought an espresso machine. Sure it’s gigantic and it and the grinder take up a fuck ton of counter space, but turns out making a latte the way I like it wasn’t that hard to learn.

I would deem this a success. Good work.

I think this is the first time I’ve seen you post something that isn’t sexual innuendo.

Oh wait. Is it the initials? My brain got hung up on using parts of the name.

I’ll bite. What?

This sounds like they did you a solid by not working. I’ll have to look up this genre of shooter, though; not something I’ve heard of before. I tend to be too easily annoyed for anything that isn’t single-player or local co-op these days, although some part of me still remembers some MMOs though rose-colored nostalgia glasses.

This may be the first time I haven’t fallen into the subset of “everybody.”

Everything I want to play runs using Linux/proton. It seems like the only things that have trouble are things I’d never consider even installing, let alone running.

Oh, that I did not know about. Sounds even worse.

Thanks for the link, that was a fun read.

I’m guessing that thing from a few months ago where he was scared of gay people in a cartoon.

I mean I don’t think this’ll work, but I don’t really get why anyone is mad about it. It was a little difficult to get used to but not exactly impossible. Seems like harmless fun.

Haven’t played this, but I think Bastion is the first game I remember doing the grandad voice thing. I enjoyed it there, not sure about liking it elsewhere.
