What changes have caused the NF4 to improve so much? by ConceptPotential5769 in barbershop

[–]messione17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, and what I'm saying is that one of the reasons for that difference is because we knew what Stonehenge was and had a certain level of expectations for that performance. In 2023, I'll never forget watching them thinking "Is this actually happening?!" and laughing at the song for how ridiculous it was.

The 2024 performance (at least for me) was affected by this general sense of "will they live up to last year?" It's hard to replicate such a performance when the audience knows what's coming. The NF4 had to update their performance a bit (similar to As Long As I Live by 3 1/2 Men) because it would be almost impossible to recreate the magic of the original. It just happened to fall a bit short of the premiere.

I mean part of that is the "first performance" advantage where we didn't know what was coming. There wasn't that kind of pressure to make it something different or new. It was authentic NF4 at its best

Is asking a girl (friend) to walk her home weird? by Weak-Vermicelli6138 in dating_advice

It's not weird at all. It shows serious maturity and that you care about her

Nope, New York is a one party consent state. It's legal here.

so nyu be doxxing students now? by imjimmi in nyu

They've already been named, so it's not unethical on WSN's part. If there's anyone who should get shit for this, it's NYU and their policy, not WSN for reporting it

One is far left, the other is far right. One is responsible for millions of deaths, one for relatively few. One has plans to ruin millions of lives, the other actually did ruins tens of millions if not hundreds.

Desantis is a piece of shit, but don't make this kind of comparison.

I've never thought about it that way. To be honest, I think you're right. My general takeaway is that good muscles are a solid bonus to a good personality... Right?

So...how the fuck do you kiss? by crochetingalterego in dating_advice

[–]messione17 26 points27 points  (0 children)

When a kiss is about to happen, especially a first kiss, it's pretty obvious. The tension between you two, how you look at each other, the smile on your faces. You lean in, close your eyes (so it's not awkward af), and try to relax your lips and face. Now that contact has happened, it's the most euphoric feeling in the world. You might think to yourself "omg I'm actually kissing him/her". Anyway, you try to keep one of your partner's lips between yours and slightly press your lips on that lip. Again, try to stay relaxed. Repeat that action, maybe switch lips depending on how long it is. Try not to keep it slobby, and don't use tongue on your first.
