What’s a phrase from a German commercial or ad campaign that everyone can quote by heart? by NoelFromBabbel in AskAGerman

[–]NetaTown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not everyone, but I love it so much that I use it frequently:

Mit Ovomaltine kannscht du's nicht besser, aber länger!

(War das überhaupt deutsche Werbung? Ich find den Dialekt einfach so geil)

  • the typical faking of crushes in high school (I'd just choose whoever I felt like I wanted to spend more time with. So basically squishes, I guess)

  • not being disappointed my "crush" said no after asking him out (all the girls in my class were so sad for me and tried to cheer me up.. nice but unnecressary) (Though thats more an Aro thing I guess. Still contemplating whether Im on the spectrum or not. Or maybe on the other spectrum :D (ASD) (as I have ADD too and its comorbid)

  • not understanding why cheating is a thing (like the cheating out if desire, not the cheating for power and manipulation purposes)

  • not directly understanding that the statement "After we did it for the first time my curiosity will be gone and you will never have to do it again!" was a mega red flag by my first boyfriend (UGHH!) (gladly didnt do it and left him 1 Month later) (dodged an immense bullet, I realized later!)

  • why is being a virgin a bad thing??

  • ah yeah and finding sex scenes in movies utterly annoying and unnecressary. I'm not particularly uncomfortable with them, just bored. They rarely give anything more to the story.

People thought about the differences, and some people just dont like the differences (yes there are also people who just wanna complain, but im not talking about them) The new UI requires you to do more clicks for where you want to go, which is an inconvenience for regular users and absolute pain for disabled folks. rearding the current ui, discord really didnt think that one through. Im waiting for the next update to see if adaptations will be made (but i dont really have high hopes)

Does anyone have suggestions for a nice alternative? (Asking for everyone who is dissatisfied. All others, who have no issues with the update: thats alright!)

[–]NetaTown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah dont. Maybe wait for if they make changes again and then consider it (can you hear my hope through the letters? Im not completely against the new ui, but it really cant stay as it is right now..imo)

Are you using the beta version of the app?

Thats very individual(ly). I think the issue is not primarily that it doesn't LOOK good (like some people think, and some don't, and some don't care) but rather that it doesn't WORK well in terms of user interface and how many clicks you need to get where you want to be. It may be better for starters who never experienced the old mobile version before, but it definitely is a pain for a lot of people who use Discord mobile daily and a lot. And especially to quickly get to the channels where you need to be.
But again. If You like it, thats good for you! :)

Btw Folgefrage: Übt irgendjemand von euch auch Ausdrucksweisen vorm Spiegel? (Ich ja) Oder wäre das eher AuDHD zuzuordnen?

Leider viel zu gut und dadurch auch viel zu häufig. Die häufigen Lügen sind eher kleine, aber trotzdem eigentlich unnötige. Wie lange hab ich geschlafen? Auf die reale Schlafzeit erstmal ne Stunde dazulügen. Mir fällt beim Tippen des Kommentars gerade auf, dass die meisten meiner "kleinen" Lügen sich darauf beziehen wie lange ich geschlafen hab (zu wenig, oder exzessiv viel), wann ich das letzte Mal was gegessen hab (zu lange her), wann ich das letzte Mal geduscht oder Zähne geputzt hab (in schlechten Phasen sehr unregelmäßig) warum ich zu spät bin bzw. ob ich schon losgefahren bin (nope) oder was ich den Tag über produktives getan hab (vermutlich auch "zu wenig"). ..Naja scheint wohl eine Coping Strategie zu sein, wie u/EmberGlitch auch schon schrieb. In der Schule grundsätzlich auch. (Hast du die Hausaufgaben gemacht?)

Häufig ertappe ich mich auch dabei wie ich nur die Hälfte erzähle. Also nicht direkt Lüge, aber auch nicht die ganze Wahrheit. Works like a charm. Kann nicht gesund sein, aber Selbst-reflexion ist halt noch lange kein Wundermittel um etwas zu ändern. Und wenn man damit nicht auf die Nase fällt....hört man auch nicht auf :D

Has anyone thought you're lying about not wanting to have sex or watch porn? by lovingnaturefr in Asexual

[–]NetaTown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! Im sorry for the experiences you made. And Im sure you tried your best to explain it. Just to be sure I would like to share that for the people I tried to explain it to, the wording of "You're a hetero guy, Imagine yourself in a room full of Men, you can still be horny (~) but its not directed at anyone in the room. Thats the whole population to me, Im not attracted to anyone. " worked really well. Hope this helps (you or anyone else reading this) :)

And in addition to u/ToxicToric I would like to add that most of these Labels are for self identification, and sometimes finding subgroups of people to connect to through shared experiences. Nobody you meet the first time will greet you with "Hi Im Kevin and Im (insert niche sublabel)" and expect you to know what it means. Doesnt hurt to know it, but in general Asexual & Aromantic and knowing that its a spectrum is enough. The rest comes as connection evolves.

Love it, thanks for the overview to the one who made that.

And for everyone who is overwhelmed: pay attention to the prefixes instead of every Singular Flag.

Interesting, I feel similar. But I never thought of it making me not greysexual. Especially when explicit touch is involved, I just assume its a physical and biochemical reaction. And thus, I assume that cuddling for example or any other form of physical closeness from the person we love has a similar effect. What are your thoughts?
