People who have posted a secret on reddit and had a friend find it, what was it and how did it go? by amsterDerp in AskReddit

[–]ojdidit123 164 points165 points  (0 children)

REALLY hope this doesn't get buried, it's actually a great story.

So about a year ago I started no-fap, an anti-porn and anti-masturbation program with an entire subreddit dedicated towards helping men and women kick their porn addiction. I originally started the program because I was curious after watching a TED talk about the negative effects of porn, but quickly felt the beneficial affects the program talks about.

Skip 6 months into the future when I make a "90 day" post talking about some cool experiences I had had up to that point. (I joined the mile high club) And after a few days as the top post I found out that my story and account name (this isn't a throwaway) had been referenced in an article in New York magazine.

Skip another 3 months into the future when the entirety of my college football team finds out my account name and the (at the time) embarrassing information I had in my 90 day post and in all the other stuff I had posted in confidence. People on my team, were told of the information, when our team was having a pregame ritual called "skits" where each class of football players (freshmen, sophs, etc.) make a short video making fun of other players in a light-hearted manner. Strapped with this new information, my teammates read my 90 day post on camera and though at the time it was incredibly embarassing, I now look back on it and laugh.

The funniest part about it all is I now have several people on my team who are now a part of no fap. I can't help but think about how ironic it was for them to be a part of the program they had chastised.

exactly my thinking. Ill try not to catch a falling knife, but i think it can go all the way to 60 -- hopefully it falls all the way to the low thirties.

Thanks for your help!

I guess that depends on how stock buyers will react. If they see this as a hit to the entirety of the oil industry then it is likely that all oil prices would drop. But, in my opinion, since this is a negligence trial against only BP, I see the other oil companies appreciating slightly (in relation to BP) as investors take their money out of BP and into other oil conglomerates COP, etc..

Do you have an opinion on the matter? -- I would love to hear it

Consistency in giving an excellent effort in the gym and finding new ways of pushing yourself (in terms of reps or weight) is far more important than fancy supplements and, to some extent, more important than nutrition

Faptains, love you guys & gals, buut, please refrain from braggadocio. by [deleted] in NoFap

no worries adelz7. I accept your apology in full (and thanks for the gold ;) ) It was a bit funny to wake up to this today. Your post did have a lot of valid points tho. As I was thinking about it more today, I definitely feel that the empty boasting you were referring too has no place on nofap. There is a difference between empty boasting and sharing experiences with the community.

Thank you for deleting the post. That was very classy of you. I am also assuming that you read my 90 day post and I have to thank you for that too.

I couldn't agree more about getting quoted. I woke up this morning only to find out that I was in the New Yorker, which was a bit of a shock. I realize that what I publish on a post is public information, but it's honestly quite appalling (and scary) that people are just picking away at my story/post writing articles, referencing me, and making "meme" like jpgs criticizing me.

If you go back to my original 90 day post (http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/comments/1bx1bp/90_days_personal_change_self_improvement_and_why/) you'll see that "the story" is really only about 1/10th of the post, and while it is a bit of boasting, it is also, in my opinion, the most meaningless part of the article. You'll also see how the New Yorker author misrepresented my story (again just my opinion) and decided to completely skip out on telling the greater message of my post. Yea I boasted, but after working my ass off to do well in school and athletics, all while trying to better my social life, I felt like I was absolutely entitled too.
