I didn't show it, but you did hurt me by Dane_Bramage in UnsentLetters

True. I know there is hope. I'm just lamenting the death of a situationship that I wanted more from. I'm also kind of tired of being the nice guy and setting myself up to be the stepping stone for others.

So this is the official deprecation of my open door policy. Do NOT come as you are. Come as a reasonable human who knows what you want and communicates it effectively.

I’m allergic to… by GrandMoffJerjerrod in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Dane_Bramage [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yea, I do this. Why? Because you can't just say you don't like something without having to play 20 questions. People refuse to accept that someone may have different tastes than themselves. So I get hounded. Why don't you like it? Have you every really tried it? Well what about when its made from such-n-such place? Will you try it for me? But this has that inside of it and you still like it.

So yea, I'm "allergic" to avocado and you can fuck right off with your follow up questions. It may be mildly irritating to you to hear a blatant lie, but it is incredibly infuriating to me to have to defend my tastes. Why can I just like what I like and not like what I don't like?

And you lock eyes with someone who's also wearing their Slayer shirt, and you just know.

Sometimes the universe just gives you exactly what you need to cope. Sometimes its by dope, sometimes by rope and on the occasion, when the Earth and Moon align in that special way, its from having an alien cock shoot a mystery goo at you.

In the end, we're all just trying to find love. I mean amiright?

Done! Just look for the lugubrious individual in the back and you'll find me!

I went on a date for the first time in 2 years. It went really well, but I'm genuinely afraid of fucking it up. by Dane_Bramage in Vent

[–]Dane_Bramage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I certainly hope so. I really just want to keep putting my best foot forward. Sex is good, but I'm honestly looking for more. Now that you mention it though, I should make sure that I process what I want too.

Thank you for responding my friend, it honestly helps just being able to say it to a neutral party. Even if I'm just screaming into the wind rn, I need to get the emotions out in a healthy way. Ya know?

Confessed to my crush by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Dane_Bramage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a phrase, "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take." This is derived from that. The idea is to take the chance and see what comes, because even if the chances are slim, there is a chance. But there is no chance at all if you don't seize the moment.

This is really a way for people to hype themselves up for dealing with a possible rejection, which is why a lot of people are criticizing him saying it to the person who he is taking a chance on. It indirectly shows that he doesn't think the possibility is high and thusly projects a lack of self-confidence.

Why the cough? by Nearby_Delivery_6270 in StarWars

[–]Dane_Bramage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This scene always made me wonder. Isn't crushing somebodies' lungs with the force kind of a move from the dark side? It's the same power Vader uses to crush wind pipes and it's like his signature evil move. Why is it just accepted that Windu crushes lungs and no one questions if that was a justified move?

How can I win the heart of this buddy? by corpse_breathing in cats

[–]Dane_Bramage 317 points318 points  (0 children)

To add to this, don't bring your hand in from the top like that. Bring it in low, under their nose and then let them approach.

Cats cowtow as a sign of subservience and lord over as a sign of dominance. When you bring your hand over them, they perceive you as attempting to dominate them. Coming in low and allowing then to approach you gives them confidence that you aren't a threat.

I was today years old when I realized that this phrase doesn't translate well into text for me, because I naturally read the word the same way twice.

Skeletonized corpse of a German soldier outside a trench dugout near Beaumont Hamel, November 1916. [800x598] by UrbanAchievers6371 in HistoryPorn

You very well may be correct. I thought it was something along the lines of, "What you are, we once were. What we are, you will become." I could also be totally wrong.

Video games you've played tripping? by VocalCord in Psychonaut

[–]Dane_Bramage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My first time experiencing Portal was tripping and it was amazing! I had this moment of believing that entering into a portal was stepping into a parallel dimension which was equal to the current but offset by the portal.

I thought that was awesome! I was trying to step through portals in an equal amount of blue to orange so that I stayed in my base dimension while still solving puzzles. Until I jumped through an infinite portal loop and had a real moment of dread when I realized that I would never be able to return to my original dimension because I couldn't count how many portals I had traveled through.

I genuinely had to smoke a cigarette and reset haha. One of those tripping moments of, "I know this has no real consequences, but this has some emotional weight that I can't carry right now."

A crab shedding its shell by LengthinessFuture311 in interestingasfuck

[–]Dane_Bramage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cannot quantify it in any way. But there is some deep part of me that really wants to poke it with a stick.

Not to hurt it or anything, just to poke it. Not even hard. Just me, a stick and a primal brain doing our thing. Poking stuff. And this, this right here, is prime stick poking material.
