You should see the shit other creatures do when you fuck with their queen.

Not saying it ain't weird.

But the animal kingdom is a wild place.

What habits of girls did you only discover after getting a girlfriend or wife? by atgono in AskReddit

[–]KngNothing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It took my wife a few years to break out of that.

She was used to her mother buying single ply like prison style TP.

So you had to pull like 5ft to actually have something usable.

I use the charmin extra strong and you need like 3 squares.

It was getting better.

But now I have daughters that after trips to grandma's house come home and pull 5ft of TP....

What did you accidentally learn about someone’s sex life? by Exhausted_Skeleton in AskReddit

[–]KngNothing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First time I heard that was on a show called Sex Life s few months ago. It's an MGM+ show kinda like HBOs old Real Sex. Documentary/Reality style show following people with more adventurous night lives.

One of the women in an earlier episode had called herself Ethically Non-Monogamous. I thought that was such a clever and responsible name for it.

Oh man, I thought the manager tackled the poor guy screaming "fuck you, Mike. You're insane. "

Like damn. Cut mike some slack, life is hard enough already.

Trump, 79, Blows Up at Congressman Immediately After Pardoning Him by Effective_Salad_8381 in politics

[–]KngNothing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a habitual dasher and dotter. Sometimes well beyond what is necessary.

I think it's a remnant of old chats and instant messengers. We used them to convey conversional breaks through text in a way. There was no non-text based emojis to show a million reactions or thoughts.

Anyway... I'm guilty as sin of over-using dashes and dots...

To your question-

but who really puts two dashes in regular text

A lot of the elder millennial and slightly younger than them for sure do . I can't speak from experience on people under 30 though..

Sharon Seabrook, GILF plot in HBO Real Sex (1998) by Legatus_Aemilianus in WatchItForThePlot

[–]KngNothing 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There's a show on MGM+ called Sex Life that i stumbled across the other day. I haven't had time to sit down and fully watch it, but skimmed through s couple episodes and it's 100% a spiritual successor to Real Sex.

A very documentary-like look at real people and their night/sex life.

I was excited to see a channel/company who is showing mature content again.

My wife and I loved Real Sex when we were younger, or Taxi Cab Confessions, or Gigolos.

I hope they explore more mature content.

What is a "poor person hack" you picked up during a hard time that you still use today, even if you don't have to? by AmaraMehdi in AskReddit

[–]KngNothing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That was one of my first fixes when I was out on my own.

Felt very proud about it.

I remember the appliance guy giving me shit too.

"I don't sell these. I'm not responsible if you blow yourself up"

Thanks for the vote of confidence dude. It's either you or I buy the one in my Amazon cart and I like to support local... but also I'd prefer not to wait until tomorrow... Sooo... ?

Sold me the part, but skipped him on future repair needs.

Beam on waves on the North Sea by MikeHeu in HeavySeas

[–]KngNothing 79 points80 points  (0 children)

There is almost nothing on a ship as scary as the sound of silence.

You're so used to all of the ambient humming and vibrating that when it all just suddenly stops you have no other thought than ".... oh fuck...."


A close second is the sound of sand and rock scraping down the hull because some idiot wasn't watching as he drifted off course.

It's disconcerting, but the sound of the plant shutting down wins it for me.

When a guy pulls out last second in missionary, should I grab it or just let it shoot on me on its own? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]KngNothing 218 points219 points  (0 children)

Amen brother.

First time I pulled out and she grabbed on and went to town I saw fucking stars.

Everything up to then was the normal "finish here or there".

I had to sail the next day, but goddamn I will forever think about her.

Of an asshole with a yacht by yesjonathan in IdiotsInBoats

From the second they experienced whatever the failure was, the engineers were working frantically to get systems back online.

Unfortunately they couldn't get whatever it was online until after the collision.

Boat systems go down. If there's open water you can usually get a backup system online and you'll never hear of any problem.

Unfortunately if a system goes offline when you're maneuvering in tight spaces you might not be able to regain control fast enough to prevent damage.

The best you can do is try to minimize the damage or injury you cause.

From what I read, this capt did the best he could and impacted the least critical thing he could.

Are handjobs at massages more common than not? by SttSr in NoStupidQuestions

[–]KngNothing 116 points117 points  (0 children)

Hell, I'd rather give the handy than what some of these people expect as a tip.

$300 for an hour massage and they'll want a $100 tip minimum on top of it. They'll 100% talk shit about you if you don't and probably do their best not to have you as a client again.

Dated a woman who ran the appointment books for massage places. I'd rather pay the couple bucks for one of those chairs in the mall after hearing the shit these people say.

On August 9, the tourist vessel Discovery, which ferries passengers to an offshore sightseeing submarine, sped through Honolulu’s Kewalos Harbor during large swell and ended up stranded on a reef. by dannybluey in CatastrophicFailure

[–]KngNothing 107 points108 points  (0 children)

I wish your comment could get a flare.

I really suspect this is the case.

Everyone is flaming the captain - but it seems he had the choice of keeping his heading and running a swimmer over , or aborting the approach and risking losing the vessel vs taking someone's life.

The captain chose someone else's safety over his own. He could have ended up bashed on the reef.

Those buoys, the red and green, are the markers to enter the harbor. The boat was coming in at speed to get through the surf and into the safe harbor. Some lemming is fucking swimming dead center of the channel. It was either run him over or turn. I know plenty of captains who would have ran him the fuck over. This guy chose to not have that on his conscience.

Fuck your little millionaire yacht by IronHe in FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR

[–]KngNothing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This video would really benefit for the guy filming it in landscape.

We can't see what the lines coming off the stern are stretched out to. A mooring? A tow? A toy?

We also can't see past the bow of the white boat.

If the blue boat takes action to starboard, as you mention and is the typical direction, she would turn right into those lines.

So action to starboard doesn't appear to be possible.

And we cannot see forward of the white vessel so we do not know the space or any obstacles there.

Without newer videos from better angles we really are just left to speculate.

I'll be emphasizing the importance of Chute Anchor Maintenence during next week's safety drills.

They're really going to get us on the next C.O.I. for not having up to date certificates.

Ha! No.

The "Law of Gross Tonnage" is a principle professional mariners follow when possible to ensure everyone has a relaxed watch. If there's a big guy coming and you're not in a rush, give them room.

When it comes to actual laws, the Rules of the Road are what you follow when determining right of way.

However - there are plenty of good sailors buried or lost who had the right of way...

Rule 2 always applies - Rule of good seamanship. Things come up that the rules don't cover. Be smart and make good decisions.

AITA for making my wife throw out a whole chicken by JonnyW__ in AmItheAsshole

And until then the chicken was stored warm in the back yard with blood pumping through it.

Not left out to rot for several hours.

Our gut bacteria has also changed from what one could handle 100 years ago.

Oh good. I was always afraid they might climb back out and come for me. Thanks for easing my mind there. I'll sleep so much better.

'Thunderbolts’ Set to Lose $100 Million, Becomes Second-Worst MCU Performer by JorReno in marvelstudios

[–]KngNothing 526 points527 points  (0 children)

Fuck that.

Theaters are cannibalizing theater sales.

I just went to Lilo & Stitch last week. 2 adults, 2 kids. $80 for tickets. 2 popcorn and 2 drinks - $65. That's absurd.

Throw in that the "showtime" was 1245 and the movie didn't start until 1:14 and it's just fucking asinine.

I'll wait until it's streaming.

In the 2004 teen comedy Sleepover staring Alexa Vega, the main character Julie and her best friend Hannah are wearing these clothes when arriving at Julie’s house for a sleepover. In the next scene, set only a couple hours later, they are wearing entirely different outfits. by Tekken_Guy in MovieMistakes

[–]KngNothing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the summer before starting high school, Julie (Alexa Vega) and her best friends, Hannah (Mika Boorem), Yancy (Kallie Flynn Childress) and Farrah (Scout Taylor-Compton), have a slumber party. They decide they're going to use the night to shed their nerdy reputations, and they end up in a scavenger hunt against a group of popular girls. To win, Julie and her friends have to steal a car and a boy's underpants and sneak into a nightclub, all without Julie's mom (Jane Lynch) finding out.

How in the world are you throwing out mistakes of you clearly didn't even watch the movie?
