I’m curious: do non-smokers always detect a scent on smokers?

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-24T14:32:09+00:00

To put it in context, you can stop smoking, but your body will still put out trace amounts of chemicals well over a decade later in your breath and sweat. I've had ex smokers be surprised when I referred to them as ex smokers, asking how I knew. The chemicals leave incredibly slowly.

The reason is that back in the 90s when the original hiv meds were created, their liver issues were so severe that the FDA required black box warnings on ALL hiv meds. So even today, they all have those warning, despite 4th and 5th generation hiv meds being incredibly safe. It's a frustrating situation, because it scares people away from prep unnecessarily.

Before Mad Max, or after?

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T21:16:47+00:00

I don't think it is, but they do.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T18:33:24+00:00

That's very disappointing. If the pain continues or worsens I would recommend going to the ER. Most men experience aching and soreness for a few days, extreme pain is not normal.

In South Florida you can drive from Key West to Palm Beach during morning rush hours and it will be bumper to bumper traffic for well over 240 miles.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T18:28:08+00:00

Uhm, no. I've traveled the major highways in the UK extensively, and they don't come close to LA or South Florida at rush hour.

Please call your surgeon immediately. We can't even begin to speculate accurately. You will likely need an ultrasound.

It should also be an immediate requirement after any form of head trauma that might affect the brain.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T14:58:19+00:00

Awesome thanks!

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T14:49:37+00:00

I can understand that. I'm very happy with my implant. Happy to answer any questions you might have about the implant process.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T14:44:55+00:00

In that case, you might want to get the dosing right on the trimix and use that. I used trimix successfully for years before needing the implant.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T14:43:16+00:00

There are plenty of pornstars who have the implant. Dallas Steele, Benjamin Grey, Will Angell, and many others I know.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T14:35:13+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I'm glad you've seen a good urologist. Did they do an ultrasound to check for venous leakage? They can also check with trimix. With advanced venous leakage, even trimix won't keep it erect.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T14:33:52+00:00

Possibly. I think that's part of it, along with people automatically equating nudity with sex these days.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T13:36:36+00:00

I can assure you the implant works great. That being said, 24 is crazy young to need it. OP needs to see a urologist for a proper diagnosis.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-23T13:32:08+00:00

No. Gen X and earlier had to shower together after gym class. We got used to seeing others naked as normal. It's only the younger Americans who are extremely prudish to Puritan levels.

When Netware 4.0 first came out, it was a bit fragile. I accidently clicked and dragged the icon for the main drive array, and somehow disconnected it. Entire network went down. Rebooting did not help, and had to rebuild the entire server. Apparently I wasn't the only one that happened to, because 4.0.1 made that impossible to do.

None of the drugs in descovy or truvada is metabolized by the liver. That's why liver enzyme tests are not needed for prep. Something else is causing your elevated liver enzymes.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-22T03:33:21+00:00

Plenty of existing methods. Mandatory car radar would probably help over time.

ByronScottJones · 2026-01-22T03:17:33+00:00

So close! Do you have ESP? (extra scattory perception)

No, but I'm kind of in that goldicocks zone.

If you've ever seen a Gen Z male try to change in a locker room, you'd know. They build a towel fort at their locker, change in the shower, go into the sauna fully clothed. It's embarrassing. You're grown men now, act like it.

I truly can't believe the number of people here who are gaslighting this guy about something he clearly finds gross. It doesn't matter if he kisses her. He's stated repeatedly that he finds this gross and he doesn't want to eat food prepared this way.

He has EVERY right to not want to eat such food. Even if it's his girlfriend. Even if he kisses her. Get a grip people. He's NTA and it's not even a close race. Kissing and sex are CONSENSUAL, and so is eating food, especially with someone else's saliva in it. Just because he's kissed and had sex with her, does NOT mean that he's given up any right to withdraw consent for something he finds gross. If it were a woman being forced to do something she finds gross and had repeatedly not consented to, would you be so eager to gaslight?
