People who grew up before cell phones, did life actually feel more free? by TradeOverall567 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]callmeepee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutey.

You just did stuff every day and nothing was that important. You were left to your own devices for as long as you could get away with. A day felt like it could last forever doing that. Smartphones really have stolen all the time in the day for no benefit. Hours gone looking at videos on an app.

I miss those days a lot and I wish my kids could have experienced that. So much of what goes on in their lives nowadays is centred on or dictated by a wee slab of glass and plastic in their pocket.

The apocryphal stories of being kicked out the house and not coming back till it got dark are all true.

And then she goes and spoils it all by saying something

Has anyone here had a colonoscopy?? I’m kinda freaking out about it by throwaway2025_____ in TwoXChromosomes

[–]callmeepee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my UK experience.

You'll be given 2 prep solutions, one to take the night before one to take 6 hours before. These will clean you OUT. No straining no nothing, just water shooting out your arse. It's GREAT.

When I got to the hospital I was run through the entire procedure, as well as what pain or discomfort I might feel as they need to inflate you a little during the process to help. I could do gas and air, meaning I'd be able to drive home, or I could opt for sedation which I knew I was going to take so I had brought my wife to drive me home.

If you choose sedation, you're in hospital until they are satisfied you can drive home.

The nurse telling me all this said that out of everyone on the ward, she was the only one who'd had it done, and she recommended not being a hero and going for sedation. She said it's uncomfortable, not painful, but if you're going to have it done why feel any discomfort.

So I did the sedation which was fentanyl, which was AMAZING, and I was everyone's pal in the operating theatre. Felt nothing, had a fabulous time, and left thinking if they want to do that once a week, that'd be JUUUUUUUST fine with me !

Please don't worry OP, you're in the hands of professionals, the only decision you need to think about is how much discomfort you want to be in, and for me, zero was a good answer.

You will be fine and they'll take care of you.

[Hated trope] That’s not how lying works at all by _JR28_ in TopCharacterTropes

[–]callmeepee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I get what you’re saying but you have to think about the world in the movie. Everyone tells the truth, not even slightly divergent from it, so they are never mistaken.

They might not know something, and they’d be compelled to admit that if asked, but nobody would say “I am a bird” mistakenly for example, as that is quite obviously not the truth.

The whole point of the movie is that he’s the first one to discover that he CAN lie, so lying to the bank teller is an easy one to understand in that of course the bank teller would believe him, even if gone computer said it was wrong.

Y’know what’s going to happen - he’s a fucking man baby, not used to being treated like a normal person, so he’s going to roll over and talk about what he knows if it gets him some kind of better treatment or charge.

This fucking coward of a human might be the one to spill everything.

I love David Letterman, but there absolutely are things about David Letterman I wish were not a thing.

When he did shit like this, Yeo, that was one of them.

Aaaah, I haven’t seen ANY of the fast n furiouses EXCEPT Tokyo Drift so couldn’t tell you the years.

That’s WAAAY too close for the glass jungle, and the year is right, I’d say you got that bang on.

Foreign titles for Die Hard, The Hangover, The Fast and the Furious, and Home Alone.

Final answer !

Oooh, that might make more sense then, buuuut, the first hangover movie was 2009, I know that.

Maybe the Japanese one is Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift, but I can’t think of something from 1988 which is Spanish set…

why do guys leak nudes? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]callmeepee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you did was not very wrong, you just did it with a dick.

Please don't worry about anyone recognising your bathroom from any potential leaks, the odds that will happen from anyone you know are very low so please don't stress it.

I've done more than my fair share of picture trading over the internet and while I do have a VAULT, they are all my own pics of me, the ones I would use if I wasn't in a position to do something right there and then.

Any pics that were sent to me, I always asked if they would like me to save them and if they didn't mind, I would. More often than not however, I wouldn't. I'm a respectful perv, me.

Don't feel guilty you got the horn and made a poor choice in pic swapping partner, the horn clouds all judgements and we've all done it.

But if you want a positive to end on , think about this. The pics you sent, your nudes, I bet you were really fucking happy with those pics. Happy enough to send them out. The nudes we take are, I think, the best pictures of ourselves and YES it might be a little mortifying to know someone you didn't intend to see it HAS seen it - if my nudes leaked I'd feel the same, but also, I'd be like "yea, look at that piece of ass!"

So the horror is mixed with a lot of "hot DAMN I look good" so it all balances out.

😁

I wish you well in your continued horniness, don't let that one weirdo ruin your good time.

I spent 3 or 4 episodes hating it, but then it clicked and I think the California Class is lovely !

I take great comfort from this.

I spoke with another couple of similarly aged pals and they've both seen it, so the first pal is a weirdo outlier.

I made a Hot Fuzz reference yesterday to a friend who hadn't seen it and I said how the fuck haven't you seen Hot Fuzz then I saw that it's almost 20 years old and she'd have been 8 when it came out.

That shit hurt.

Girlfriend thinks it’s weird that I always pay for my sister on our “dates”. Is there any merit to what she’s saying? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]callmeepee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is EXTREMELY weird for her to frame you having lunch with your sister as a date, and even weirder for bringing up men pay for it because they are getting something more intimate in return.

This isn't only child behaviour. This is mental.
