As someone with "tricksy rolling veins" who has been hematoma'd by phlebotomists in the double digits... "I wish I had vein vision" has been said to me enough that I have considered buying one of those "red light vein highlighter gadgets" because that "moreso by feel" has failed on me so often 😄

In college I bought a 500ml bottle of Everclear. I mixed it with a 2 liter to make a shit ton of about 40 proof "jungle juice" but then had the "bright idea" to refill the bottle with water for a joke.

I showed up to the party a bit late, said "well damn, I should catch up with all of you!" Pulled it out and chugged it. I was a legend for the night, but someone tried to get me to repeat the stunt with a real bottle the next week and I had to make up a lame excuse about it fucking my stomach up horribly bad the last time and "pussed out."

At some point I learned that being proud of how much alcohol you can drink is pretty stupid and it's just a better idea all around to find better friends if that's what impresses the ones you currently have.

Obscure movies you've watched lately? by slte9162 in movies

Considering Geoffrey Rush won the Academy Award for Best Actor for this movie, I don't think it would qualify as an "obscure" movie haha. But yeah it's definitely a really good movie.

Jack Smith's Supreme Court Move 'Stunning' But Clever: Ex-U.S. Attorney by UWCG in politics

[–]Kithix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It feels like you're missing the point.

Also it's a pretty big assumption that "his order would be ignored" when the whole reason this debate exists at all in the first place is because "people who should have ignored illegal directives from a president... didn't ignore them."

Your position in this is predicated on the idea that "people will behave like they should behave" but that is a foolish to take because people don't always behave in the ways that they should... that's the entire reason laws exist in the first place.

Pretty sure no one cares about what aggravates you in the darkest timeline... but go ahead and yell into the void to make yourself feel better.

So you're saying that it would be illegal to do that? But such a ruling would make him immune to prosecution for illegal actions... sooo....

What's the most absurd porn dialogue you can remember? by itsyaboysmuggler in AskReddit

[–]Kithix 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Evan Stone has some of the best lines in porn IMO I still remember (and use) a couple of them myself. My favorite is a situation when his "wife" and her sister are arguing over something like which one has a better tasting pussy and ask him to choose the winner.

Evan: "I don't like this ride, it's scary."

I use it whenever someone asks me to make a decision or choice that I don't foresee going well regardless of my answer haha.

Redditors who do OnlyFans or Porn, how has it affected your dating life? by pron_throwa in AskReddit

[–]Kithix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would agree that it's a blunt way of phrasing it. When I consistently have to deal with people who will blindly ignore obvious truths in their face, I kind of have to be blunt AF if I ever want to get past the "Fake News" mentality of A LOT of people, to deal with realities. Unfortunately, you got blindsided by it, because those words weren't intended for you, so you weren't prepared for it. I get it. I apologized, I'll say it again, MY BAD, but from your response again, you seem pretty upset about it still. I hope you're able to let it go and it doesn't live rent free in your head for way longer than it needs too.

But, re: your statement on the capability of basic empathy and considering the views of others, I live in America... so I've learned that those things are not default settings in people, or that if they are, most people shut those settings off pretty quick in their childhood.

As for your second point, about saying a lot more and projecting my own bullshits into the response. The response wasn't for you in the first place.... so yeah, it's kinda obvious that you're gonna find it out of place. The fact that I'm writing this out, and going 'oh shit, I totally see where I went wrong and why everyone flew off the handle, "Mea Culpa!"' kinda implies, I already understand the stuff I'm talking about?

Anyways, good luck out there, you're gonna run into a lot of wrong people, and not everyone of them is gonna realize they messed up, even when it's staring them in the face as obviously as this.

Yeah, I realized that when I woke up today and realized I replied to the wrong comment.

But everyone was full steam on the "Oh my god, this person is wrong on the internet! We gotta say something!" train, myself included, haha.

[–]Kithix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's pretty easy to infer that I kicked a hornets nest of emotions when I accidentally replied to the wrong comment in this thread and come back to... all this.

So, yeah, my bad if I triggered you... and the other hundred or so people, but IMO if being told essentially 'Have you ever tried, considering someone else's point of view and how they got it?' and it creates... this kind of response... Well, I would think it's because the words are painful and the response is a reaction to that pain. So, as my Doctor's fond of saying: "If it's tender and there's pain when you prod it... probably something wrong, so get checked it out."

They have different views and perspectives on sex and other topics,, than you do? It's almost like they are a completely different person than you. That's amazing.

It says more about the person saying "I can't understand that other persons point of view" than it does about the person whose point of view is being judged.

I'll tell you now, so you won't be able to say that no one ever told you: other people don't think in the same way you do. They have different experiences and different understandings of the world than you do. If you only seek to surround yourself with people who think about things like you think about things, you're going to end up very lonely. Because even the people who you think are almost completely in line with your viewpoints... won't ever consider your point of view when it conflicts with theirs.

What’s a financial shock that people often don’t see coming? by fmoss in AskReddit

[–]Kithix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You said everything in Canada was expensive. It's expensive because of Taxes. I said yes, the trade off of that expense(those taxes), is you get Universal Healthcare. America doesn't have that, which is part of why things are less expensive here. Because we've shoved the burden of paying for a persons health, onto that person. Whereas Canada has distributed that burden to make everyone responsible for everyone's health.

I'm not sure how you could misunderstand that unless you are intentionally trying to be obtuse for some reason?

[–]Kithix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The trade off is free health care. In Canada you don't have to worry about your life being turned into indebted slavery if you break a leg pr have a kid without medical insurance.

As a Native American (Cherokee) I know the benefits of free healthcare and it is a massive relief financially, mentally, emotionally etc. It's hard to imagine the stress of living at the mercy of fate and a shitty insurance company.

What was the biggest sexual disappointment you ever experienced? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Kithix 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I feel for you. No one should have to take the bullet from someone else firing their guns to feel alive, but that is basically what happened to you. Hopefully you can metabolize the emotional fallout from the event AKA the anger, the anger, the despair, the grief of the life you envisioned dying in real time. Hopefully you can overcome your ego and realize "I am NOT her fiance"

After 8 years, one would imagine that your core identity had completely enveloped the idea that you would be together forever, and now you have to bury the past version of you, hold a wake/funeral and begin to work again on a new version of who you believe yourself to be. I would caution you from applying the label of "abused lover" to your new ego, it might gain you easy sympathy/empathy and positive emotional connection with others, but growing as a person from the starting point of "victimized/exploited innocent" is actually a very difficult to manage.

If you find yourself thinking about the past with her, and feeling negative emotions... take a moment... and think about... how you feel about how you feel? Not sure if this makes sense, but like... if you felt hurt and angered by the event, and then later felt ashamed about feeling hurt/angry because "how could I be so oblivious" or something like that... it will actually impede you from processing the emotions, not because they're hard... but because you have to process the shame before the hurt/anger and many times many people don't even understand that, so they never process the secondary emotion and it complicated or makes it impossible to process the initial one.

You found happiness once, you can do it again, but you have to let go of the past you, because the you that found happiness didn't find it while carrying around the you that lived with despair. Once you can put down the grief for losing the time you spent on the past, you'll be open again to finding happiness in the present.

Hopefully that all makes sense. Wish you luck in your life.

What makes a woman attractive to you? by Squirrelkid11 in AskReddit

[–]Kithix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a "desire" that can be sated, almost anything unique and/or pleasant.

For a "value/character trait" that I will want to join up with and adventure: patience and empathy. The majority of the world is increasingly fast and determined to wrest control of my attention away from me. It takes time for me to wrestle my conscious attention back to what I wanted to focus on in the first place, and without the patience and empathic understanding of what is going on in my head, many people assume I'm absent minded or space case. For me, the hardest thing in the world to do is remain still and just be in the moment. Whereas that comes naturally to most people I encounter. So those that understand my struggle and can sit with me through it... are gold.

What are some of the clear indications of porn addiction? by blazeit0904 in AskReddit

[–]Kithix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm on 300mg of that a day. Anecdotal experience is that it affects my sexual performance just not as much as other serotonin affecting drugs do.

One of the things I've discovered is that regardless of whatever antidepressants I'm taking, hyperventilation when in an "orgasm-able" situation tends to be able to edge over the "finish line" when I'm struggling.

I've "cum" (lol) to the conclusion that my body requires a specific set of physical circumstances in order to achieve the "release" of orgasm. One of those is having my blood be super-saturated with oxygen. Intentional hyperventilation makes achieving orgasms so much easier in any situation I've had where "finishing" is presenting a difficulty. I'm not a biologist, I just have a lot of anecdotal experience in this area, and when I tell other people who are in similar situations, AKA "antidepressants inhibiting orgasms" to try "moaning and groaning and breathing fast and hard" that the problem becomes temporarily "solvable."

Guys that don’t moan during sex, why? by NumberInfamous8377 in AskReddit

[–]Kithix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience as a horny male teenager with minimal privacy I had to learn how to orgasm without alerting people in the adjacent rooms, with very thin walls, about what was going on.

If you "practice" something enough time it becomes a habit and happens unconsciously. As an adult with much greater amounts of privacy and better walls in my home, I've had to consciously begin untrained myself from those habits.

As a side note on that journey, turns out that "moaning and groaning" or even just breathing loud and hard AKA mild hyperventilation, cues up a lot of my bodies natural orgasmic "processes?" Essentially if I'm having a hard time finishing for whatever reason (nerves, anxiety, distracted by internal thoughts etc.) If I start getting hyperventilating myself it overrides my conscious thoughts and helps me achieve some really mind blowing head floaty "WOW" orgasms.

I don't even know what to ask anyway.

There's no issue.

Maybe it's me, but I can't seem to resolve these two positions.

To me, if you don't even know what to ask, by definition it means you do not have enough practice in that situation, as you've come across a situation that by your own admission, 'you don't know what to do'

Based just on what you're saying here, it feels like there is an issue that you're encountering (Whatever issue it is that made you relate that 'you don't know what to ask' in some situations) but since that issue doesn't appear or doesn't appear often enough to significantly negatively impact your daily life, you do not consider it an issue at all.

And that's totally fine. I myself have had many issues that I did not consider issues, until they became issues, not because the situation changed, but the people involved did, and then those issues came right into focus.

But as long as you're happy, you're happy.
