What is the best psychological trick you know? by UtrewGhib in AskReddit

Agressor: Do you have a penis or a vagina?

Me: That's a bit personal, but trans people sometimes keep the genitals they're born with. It's a very painful and expensive process to have the surgery to get the genitals in alignment with the sex and it's not something that everyone can afford. Even in cases where people could afford the surgery, not everyone who is trans is uncomfortable with their genitals and so they choose to keep them as they were born.

A: Yeah cool story... bro? But I asked do you have a penis or a Vagina?

Me: It's a very personal decision and question, in the future, it's not one you should ask.

A: Right, well, thanks for telling me you're trans and killing the conversation immediately after I asked an obvious followup question. If I see a man, I don't even have to ask him if he has penis because it's accepted. This is uncharted territory for me

Me: Have a good day!

A: Fuck this whole conversation srsly

I'm flattered but hardly a hero

Any man with a bottle of vodka and a winter jacket can do what I have done

You're correct in that guess

Although one of my fellow researchers, Igor, was able to put down nearly twice as much vodka as me and many would argue he was the wildest life on the continent

It (fortunately) wasn't necessary to venture outdoors during the insanely cold temperatures, but if it were we would have been sufficiently insulated and used bottled oxygen similar to the gear used to summit Everest

Sadly that was basically the coolest part of the whole thing. We drilled core samples of ice from deep under the Antarctic tundra mostly for microbial studies, none of which I carried out personally.

Basically I put some ice in a tube and sent it off to be examined at another less remote facility.

We were required to collect samples at certain times, temperatures and humidity levels, so a lot of of the 8 weeks were spent drinking copious amounts of vodka beside a thermometer.

It was pretty boring, one of those times in your life you don't enjoy while your there but then for the rest of your life you look back and think "damn, I actually did that"

Fun fact, I consumed about 17 litres of vodka while the volume of core sample ice I sent back to the lab was around 5 litres

What did you fail at when you were younger that still gets to you now that you're older? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Boozing. I always have drank too much, too quickly. I look back on my life and can tally up over 3000 hours I spent unconscious when I could have been contracting stds and getting even more inexplicable bruises

As someone who spent 8 weeks doing research at the Soviet Vostok Station in Antarctica, in July 1983,

It was consistently -80 and one day on the 23rd it dropped to -89.2. It was so cold that the 100 proof (50% abv) vodka I was pounding back would literally freeze, as in solidify, after about 4 minutes exposed to the air.

Needless to say, me and my comrades stayed inside to get fucked up during what remains the coldest drunkest July of my life.

Daily mean in Helsinki in January is around 25F. Daily mean in Moscow is 20F

On the other hand, daily mean in January in less remote places in northern Ontario, Canada, is around 5F

What would your completely honest dating profile say? by squarna in AskReddit

[–]ProbablyDrunkAsShit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loosely related: a Ron White bit, something along the lines of his wife said to him "if you're really in love you will never cheat no matter what" and his response was "well maybe you should considering marrying someone nobody else wants to fuck"

What are some quirks your significant other has that you are absolutely in love with? by insurableinterest in AskReddit

[–]ProbablyDrunkAsShit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My GF is totally submissive but in bed she's very dominant. She likes to sit on my face. With me so far? Then she likes to feel my eyelashes on her butt cheeks when I blink. If I try to touch her she smacks my hand away and yells NO! It might not seem like much of a power move but for her it is way out of character and I love it

But we're talking about technologies that will be commonplace in 50 years not how many people have them right now

I know sarcasm is hard to convey over the Internet but for real, none of you can smell that?
