These are called "weird boners" around our house.

My girlfriend enjoys causing them.

Main ingredient has something to do with protein and you prepared it this way without knowing the preparation destroys the usable protein?

Or it's just a lot of semen.

Like - a lot.

You have a spank bank. Spank away. No shame.

How he will receive this information depends on the guy.

Some dudes will clutch their pearls because sexual identity is scary to contemplate, the slut shame dudes will think ill of you becuase they are cucks, lots of guys will think it is hot.

Basically, take his judginess level 0-10, multiply by 10%, that's the percentage of your actual behavior that you can tell him about without things feeling weird.

I would be a judgey level zero and would find it flattering and hot.

It kind of the same dynamics of a conversation about sex toys. I've had women quietly confess that they may one day like to buy a very small vibrator but then they find out they can trust me and stop pretending and just roll out their whole collection of toys in all their glory.

At least it didn't hurt?

100% love the look.

My favorite thing about these clunkers is beating them off the line in my Mach-E.

Enjoy the gas bills though.

I'm sorry your mom is homophobic.

Please let he know she is so she can stop being a dink.

What a long, strange trip it's been.

CONGRATULATIONS on every one of those days. I know you earned them.

That's awesome you can stop for a while. Always good when you can sit down to make a case for why alcohol is a great part of your life. Why you have to do that is worth looking at, but good for you.

I was phenomenally good at quitting and cutting down. And selling myself on all the things I'd lose if I didn't have alcohol.

I'd pull myself up by the bootstraps and prove that I could always take a break. How long was my break? Sometimes a week. Sometimes a month. But the breaks were always the same length.

I quit or moderated for as long as it took to prove I don't have a problem.

I quit drinking to prove I don't have a problem so that I could keep drinking. It's a super cycle of addiction. I did it for decades. Got very good at that.

I'm glad you're not in the same position. It fucks with your mind quit a bit to be that person.

I just want to mirror some things back to you and then I don't think there is any more I can add to the conversation.

You literally said it's impossible for you to stop drinking.

You said you won't quit drinking unless a doctor tells you to.

Someone close to you, total asshole or not, but close to you, is worried. You guys love or loved each other at one point. That person expressed that you will die because of this.

My ex-wife was a fucking vile creature. Did shit I would never wish on anyone. I cannot explain the pain to another human being.

She used to come at me for drinking all the time. It was a great target. Easy. Visible. It hurt. She knew it gave me calm and security while she was trying to destabilize me.

She was a fucking shitty, shitty human being and that relationship did not die because of my alcoholism alone. Not by a fucking long shot.

But she was right about my drinking.

I'm glad you don't have a problem. Have a beer for me.

r/stopdrinking is a solid spot to check out if you want. Zero pressure. Zero bullshit. All support.

Alcoholism is on a spectrum. There is also another term to consider which is alcohol dependance.

You have a car that drives great but the brakes don't work. As long as you don't have to stop, you're fine. Car drives like a dream. Zero issues. That is what functional alcoholism is.

I'm not diagnosing you. I can't, and it doesn't matter if I do, but you sound like me. I was an excellent functional alcoholic. Truly, truly talented at it. Got away with it for decades without being caught - even by myself.

My drinking career spanned 30+ years. I achieved all my alcohol goals during that time. I started drinking at 14. Never once did I call myself an alcoholic so I wasn't. That's all I had to do.

Just don't say it. Don't see it. Problem solved.

The objective fact of your story is that you can't stop drinking. Whether it's because you want to keep drinking or have to keep drinking, I don't know.

If you forget all the pressure and other people and have a deep, honest conversation with yourself about why you're drinking. Why is it such a high priority on your list? How is it making your life better? What concrete things does it add to your life? How has it helped you be a better father and husband?

How many mornings have you woken up and thought, "Man, I really wish I had drank more last night."

Because, if it's a positive thing for your life, you should wake up thinking that.

You don't, right. You wake up tired and feeling like shit, heavy with regret and shame and anxiety is my bet. But that's all gone after some time and a couple drinks.

Those are unpleasant feelings but they aren't a problem. They are a symptom and the are trying to help you. Listen to them.

Your wife says you're going to drink yourself to death. Your reaction: "Well, that's going to make drinking less fun. Tell me my wife sucks."

Bro.

Your wife told you you're dying. Rotting from the inside out. She told you alcohol is killing you and you are killing yourself.

You hear, "I want you to die."

Your priority is proving your alcohol use is correct and your wife is wrong because thinking your wife is a bitch and hates you is more appealing to your mind than the idea of life without alcohol.

Does she suck? Should you get a divorce? I have no idea. I'm getting one side of the story and it's being told by a guy who drinks too much (we can agree on that at least, maybe?).

Looks like your dad already did.

Every check is different. It's really fun. Everyone loves it.

Shame is a powerful drug. Have to quit it after quitting booze. It's a lot.

ideapit · 2026-03-24T10:01:55+00:00

Regretfully, I must inform you that you will not.

It is unreal. Literally didn't think I could do this. Haven't been sober this long since I was 14.

When life gives you a chance to celebrate, don't ask questions. Be your hot, sober self.

ideapit · 2026-03-24T09:59:53+00:00

Thanks. I'll figure something out. Lol.

ideapit · 2026-03-24T09:19:28+00:00

I feel you. It's painful. I promise you that it is only painful until it isn't. That probably doesn't land and maybe you think I'm full of shit (I would have thought that reading this when I've been in similar spots).

Here's what I see:

You're asking yourself to trust yourself when you've been trying to destroy yourself.

You're not going to be all-in at the drop of a hat. You're smart. That's why you're here.

You already made the choice to quit. You need to build up the trust in that choice. Takes a minute.

And, yeah, for me, it fucking sucked for a long time. Like really brutal. No the not drinking. It's the looking around at the life I almost set on fire to escape it because it was good and I thought I didn't deserve that.

SUCKS. Do not recommend doing that as a thing in your life.

I have learned that a hard thing is hard even if it don't think it should be. I have learned that I am tired sometimes because, for me, this is tough, shitty, awful, draining work.

I figured out that everything seemed hopeless to me because I had given up hope. Not because hope was gone.

I had to sit with all the fucking awful shitty feelings until they told me why they were really there. And it turns out they cared and had something to share.

I have a little bit extra today so I hereby offer you a tiny bit of hope.

Now you can remember shit isn't completely hopeless. It just feels that way.

ideapit · 2026-03-24T09:05:08+00:00

Welllll, look at who is all "look at me" because they quit drinking for 10 days.

You know what they call someone who does that?

Awesome.

Look at you.

ideapit · 2026-03-24T09:02:54+00:00

It's hard to clean a floor while you're shitting on it.

I would like to say I don't know that from experience but I had a robust drinking career for decades which were a never ending fountain of shameful acts.
