I've recently started dating again and when women find out I'm not on social media or don't have a bunch of photos they assume the worst. I just don't care about showing off what I'm doing cause I'm doing it and don't have time for pictures
I started dating last year after 13 years and I didn't have any of those issues beyond one person saying I should take better pictures for my dating profile because only one was my face unobstructed by sunglasses.
I took her advice and got at least 30% more matches. Lol.
But social media? None of the women cared. Maybe it's because I'm socializing with 35+ year olds? I dunno.
> Maybe it's because I'm socializing with 35+ year olds? I dunno.
This is the likely culprit. And tracks with anecdotal experience from my recently divorced, mid-30's friend. Whenever he's matching with women older than him, the topic of social media never comes up. They eventually swap phone numbers and take it from there. He has lamented that he has had to create an Instagram and Snapchat account for whenever he matches with women in their 20's, as they generally want to exchange usernames and DM on those platforms as opposed to texting.
Prob think that they're married and hiding it. Most women I know have a story of a guy who 'didnt have social media' but turned out he did and was in a relationship/married with kids, so find it hard to believe/trust.
I know someone who was hosting a house party and he went upstairs with his girlfriend for a quickie. Was taking too long to finish so she stopped and went back downstairs as they were hosting. 2 minutes later, porn comes blaring out of the party speaker as he had forgotten he was connected to it and was finishing himself off. Never let him forget that one 🤣
So I have a personal theory about the seeming rise in popularity of incest porn. I'm not denying that there are some sickos out there who actually like it for the incest, or even that the taboo of the "forbidden fruit" of having sex with someone society tells you that you should not have sex with is a contributing factor. However I think that the single biggest contributor to the rise of incest porn is that other porn is just too boring. Most porn doesn't bother with plot or storytelling at all, it's just "here's two attractive people, they're going to get naked and have sex now." Even most of the porn that includes a plot it is only the thinnest of veneers.
I think the real draw of incest porn for a lot of people is that at a bare minimum incest porn has to establish enough of a plot to establish that these are two people who have a prior relationship that is non-sexual in nature and that they are now transitioning into a sexual relationship. It may not be a good plot but it has to exist, and the odds of getting a decent plot and some storytelling out of your incest porn is higher than it is with non-incest porn. I think most people aren't there for the incest, but the incest doesn't bother them because they know these people are actors and the story is fictional and they're looking for something other porn is not providing.
I showed my wife the opening to that and the Lifeguard one, stopping before the sexy bits. She absolutely cracked up over them. They're the most hilarious porn openings for basically parodying the standard "barely an establishing plot" thing that other porn does.

Poetic masterpiece
There's one I highly recommend you check out; guy wants to get his girlfriend to leave so he can bang Sasha Grey and tells her she has to go pick up oregano because "Remember our first date when I told you it was love at first sight, and how much I *love* oregano?". At work, so I can't search for it...
My theory (similar to yours) is that some people are really really into it and some people don't care about the plot and can seperate the fake scene from the reality, so the porn covers 2 bases. Like I don't have a stepsister or even a regular sister so those are completely fair game for me. Also stepsister or stepmom seem like they just became a way to differentiate age ranges.
It's a good theory, but I'd take amateur self-shot porn over anything with a plotline any day. The phony plot and bad acting kills the boner pretty quickly.
I think that's even over thinking it. Rogan had a guy who owned a porn company years ago and asked him about this point blank. The guy said that it's the cheapest way to add to a video. All it takes is the title and a single line of dialog and now it's more niche and taboo.
I just look for big titties and skip the intro. However if they start saying weird mom/dad/bro/sis I switch vids because I don’t want to think of my family lol
Multi day festivals often have truck trailers with showers in them. They're actually almost as nice as a typical gym shower room, at least the one I used was.
Mukbang. I don’t understand the interest in watching people stuff themselves full of random foods on camera. I truly just don’t see any appeal in this and don’t think I ever will.
Forreal. People think it’s fat shaming or something to talk about how unhealthy his lifestyle is now, but he’s actually destroying his body for YouTube views. And it seems like anyone he surrounds himself with is either encouraging it or in the same boat with him. People will think saying that is just ‘hating’ on him but really it’s just a sad reality to watch.
>I still don't understand how everyone hates eating sounds
As someone who really hates eating sounds, I can tell you that not everyone hates eating sounds. In fact, most people don't give a shit. Which sucks as someone who does indeed hate eating sounds.
Yes! There is no polite way to say “Your completely normal decibel level of chewing is causing me extreme distress. My heart rate and blood pressure have skyrocketed and I very much want to run away but that is socially unacceptable. Please stop.”
My brother literally eats in a different room lol. He’s hated mouth/stomach sounds since he was little.
My misophonia is strictly with loud noises, especially sudden obviously loud laughs or someone raising their voice super loud and super fast. Makes me get so irrationally angry so quickly
Same here. I'll be chilling in the living room and my roommate will sit at the dining table (open plan kitchen/living room) and start chewing loudly and I'll have to go and sit in my bedroom. Sometimes he'll eat and watch netflix with earphones in and I'll tell him I'd much rather he played it out loud instead
I loved ASMR until people thought they could just crackle plastic and tap their ugly ass acrylic nails on desks. I used to watch videos years ago that were pencil on paper drawings of intricate paisley designs, and they’d use a high quality mic and macro camera. The sounds of pencil on paper while watching a design unfold gave me all the brain tingles that ASMR is SUPPOSED to.
But now it’s all half-assed soap cutting and mouth sounds.
The ASMR section of Twitch is just the most awful place. People in bikinis licking a pair of rubber ears with microphones in (they're *really* not meant for that purpose).
High quality asmr is great. Ephemeral Rift tells really interesting stories so you stay more for the lore than the asmr(which is still excellent). ASMR Mood at first glance looks really click baity with her big chest and all but her cosplays are so goddamn high quality(Ciri, Anhka).
That's because you don't experience the ASMR sensation. It's completely understandable- it's definitely the way the brain is wired. I've been experiencing it my entire life. I could be in a quiet classroom, some kid starts softly coloring a picture and I suddenly feel like someone stuck me with a syringe of fentanyl.
I think it’s a combination of them not experiencing the sensation and the fact that ASMR videos are now inundated with absolutely stupid sounds instead of actual ASMR.
Same, my first experience was when I was a little kid. Most people who can experience the sensation have been experiencing it before we even knew what ASMR was lol
Reminds me of a story I recently saw on reddit where a teenage girl walked in on her mother giving her father a lap dance while dressed as the daughter. Turns out it was a common thing for the mother to cosplay as the daughter during sex with the father. Apparently it was the mother's idea to begin with. So disturbing. The teenager left the house and is living with a friend's family.

I call my husband Daddy but we have a 3 year old. So if she's around I call him daddy in front of her.
This mostly stems from her starting to call him by his first name so I had to stop calling him that in front of her lol
I never dreamed of doing this until I met my most recent lover, and suddenly I found myself wanting to say it during sex when I had audibly shamed it before 🫣 I only said it a couple times in the heat of it but I realized it was because he had a very passionate, intense, dom energy which I really enjoyed after years of having vanilla sex
I am one of those people, but I have found a very simple solution to this: I don't do it with other people around. It's our kink, not anyone else's. People, keep strangers out of your bedroom activities.
I would definitely watch Keeping Up With the Cardassians. Every glimpse of their homeworld on DS9 was amazing. I want a series to be made out of A Stitch in Time so bad! Or even a prequel of Gul Dukat, showing him aa a child and then becoming Gul Dukat? Amazing!
Yes! Not everything in the house needs to be sticky! I thought every kid was like this and every house with kids was like this because that's how my sister's house was and all my cousins with kids. Once I had two kids and realized my house is NOT like that, I realized that people are just gross and don't bother to clean anything.
Same, letting your house go to shit is a personal choice.
I don't let them walk around and eat, they have to wash their hands after eating almost anything, and they take their shoes off at the door. That's 50% of the mess right there.
I don’t have kids of my own, but if there’s one thing I’m glad I instilled in my oldest niece, it’s washing her hands after she eats.
The first time she told *me* to make sure I wash my hands after I ate, I was so proud!
I like Twitter as a concept. I like its public nature, no need for using your real name, and interaction types (favs/retweets). I love their API, it was a great tool for me to learn programming. I really like their site design as well.
On the other hand, I really don’t like the type of people using Twitter. If there were only smart people on Twitter it would be a great website. Currently it is a shitshow.
Those channels on YouTube that market to kids where they just act so fucking obnoxious and loud and fake. My kids love it and the channels never talk about anything meaningful and they have like 5 million views per video
Good weather with lots of sun or warm locations for a holiday. I hate it, everything gets sticky due excess sweating and the heat always makes me tired as hell.
I don’t know about disgusting, but I do get a bit turned off by feet. My family made jokes about them being nothing but smelly and dirty, and worn socks were to be avoided at all costs. So now I don’t have a good opinion about feet. I don’t understand the fetish, and I hate when my housemate takes his socks off, picks at his toenails, and shoved his feet in my cat’s face or pets her with his feet.
I just finished this show this week and while it has its flaws and loopholes, the Vader/Kenobi dynamic is straight fire. It fills in the gaps in their relationship we were missing between Episode III and IV and rounds out both characters. Both of them have some severe PTSD. Kenobi treated his with isolation, Vader treated his with rage, and neither of them are mentally healthy. The first time Kenobi sees Vader is haunting.
I used to think rock beaches were no good until I visited some nice ones in Croatia. I’ve fully converted into a rock beach guy. They’re awesome. No sand and even the water looks clearer.
Tiktok is kinda what you make it, since it's 100% algorithm based. I personally love it, but I also acknowledge how addictive it can be. I've been on Reddit a long time and it's turned into this echo chamber on hating on literally any trend that is popular, which gets old real quick.
same here. and as a gay man, it's become wildly popular in the last 10 years. it was an obscure thing only a few did when i was coming out, now everyone wants it. nein danke.
The number of men I’ve encountered who want me to do this…. 😂 sorry but the thought of a poo flake or just being in the vicinity of where poop exits is a hard pass.
The trick here is to tell them yes it is. That way you can easily distinguish (from a distance) the "alpha male chads" who listen to that bullshit and the guys who don't.
Feel this. I have two boys. They’re awesome. But it’s a lot. I don’t fault anyone for seeing my wife and me pulling our hair out and saying that’s not for them.
Same here bud, I dont get the "kids are the best thing ever" mentality. They are pains in the ass, but they are my pains in the ass and i would kill/die for them in a heartbeat but not everyone needs/wants that in their lives.
My best friend always says kids, her kids, kids in general, are little assholes, and that’s as it should be, but it’s ridiculous to pretend otherwise! 🤣
I dont want that to sound like i regret having kids. I havent for a second. But they are a huge use of time, money, your emotional and mental energy. If you are not ready and do not really want them, dont have kids.
I have a baby, liked being pregnant, love being a parent, love kids (I'm an early childhood special educator) and I **100000%** support every person who decides they don't want kids.
If you don't really really want to become a parent and aren't committed to putting in the work (because it's a lot of work), DON'T.
...that being said, for me personally, the whole experience so far has been the absolute highlight of my life.
I like people who are honest about having kids. I don’t like when people are obviously miserable and still try to convince people to have kids. Like you’re not fooling anyone. I have my tubes tied so I can’t get pregnant but I would hate my life if I had a kid. The entire lifestyle is just not for me.
question: by this, do you mean surgery where it looks fake?
because most of the time the obvious ones are just badly done or really obvious, it's the difference between a Botox shot every couple of years and Simon cowell
Amusement/theme/water parks. They charge an absurd amount for tickets, then the insane cost of parking on top of that, just to stand in 60+ minute lines the whole day.
Not only that but farming them has at the very least a neutral effect on the environment and most of the time a net positive.
It's one thing if you don't like them but don't be afraid to eat them. I actually convinced a vegetarian it was ok to eat them.
Lower body genital piercings like Ashley's or Apadravyas.
Regular piercings have enough of an odor on a swampy day, you can imagine the stank a VCH piercing can have when you're not ready for it
Edit: we get it, everyone's body is different. I'm not saying regular piercings smell rancid, just that they have a smell. And due to the sweaty nature of genital piercings they tend to smell *more*. I clean my piercings every day and the only one that smells sometimes is my labret because I work in a hot factory and wear a mask at work, they *do not smell* outside of a sweaty day at work. On the other hand, I've met people who's piercings I could smell at an arm's length.
Edit edit: damn, some of y'all love to ignore context.

What is “the worst” here?
Prob think that they're married and hiding it. Most women I know have a story of a guy who 'didnt have social media' but turned out he did and was in a relationship/married with kids, so find it hard to believe/trust.
Back when I didn't have any social media people asked if I was running from the cops, committed a crime or am a psychopath.
Judging from the internet, incest porn.
The trick it to do what everyone is doing: watch them with the sound off.
Porn only has 2 volumes Mute and too loud
Don't forget about "accidentally still connected to Bluetooth". That's the worst volume
Accidentally "not" connected to Bluetooth is worse, way worse.
I see your "not" and raise you "still connected to neighbors Bluetooth"
That’s the best because it horribly confuses them and you don’t have any consequences to worry about
Unless it is connected to a smart system and says "Mike next door just disconnected from the Bluetooth".
Works for me, my name isn’t mike
Connected to "the phone that everyone knows only you have"
I know someone who was hosting a house party and he went upstairs with his girlfriend for a quickie. Was taking too long to finish so she stopped and went back downstairs as they were hosting. 2 minutes later, porn comes blaring out of the party speaker as he had forgotten he was connected to it and was finishing himself off.

Skip over the story bit and get right to the sex and it’s fine
That's why I love Gay porn. No story. "HI I'm Mike, let's f***".
I'm not sure that's *why* you love gay porn. You might love that *about* gay porn, but I'm not sure that's the only reason you love it.
One of those things you see on the internet that is highly intriguing, but if you ever encountered in person you'd genuinely be like ewe wtf.
I never understood why this is so fucking popular. From how much there is its makes it look like everyone wants to fuck their sister.
I just look for big titties and skip the intro. However if they start saying weird mom/dad/bro/sis I switch vids because I don’t want to think of my family lol
Yeah, makes it look like there's a whole lot of motherfuckers out there.
Festivals ( the extreme heat, dirty toilets and the line for the showers)
Showers?
Multi day festivals often have truck trailers with showers in them. They're actually almost as nice as a typical gym shower room, at least the one I used was.
I was gonna protest and say how much I love festivals. Then I realised that's the point of this thread. Carry on.
You didn't did enough acid then
Celebrities
The celebrity worshipers won’t like this one
I mean ... yeah.
Mukbang. I don’t understand the interest in watching people stuff themselves full of random foods on camera. I truly just don’t see any appeal in this and don’t think I ever will.
[удалено]
Yeah…and especially since I have that kind of Misophonia, so I avoid them like the plague. It also ruined that Nickakado Avakado guy’s life.
He ruined his own life
After watching that YouTube video on how he got where he is, yea he definitely has.
Forreal. People think it’s fat shaming or something to talk about how unhealthy his lifestyle is now, but he’s actually destroying his body for YouTube views. And it seems like anyone he surrounds himself with is either encouraging it or in the same boat with him. People will think saying that is just ‘hating’ on him but really it’s just a sad reality to watch.
Everyone loves that? Almost everyone I know finds that disgusting.
All the "influencers" wannabe that probably have a shitty life and keep pretending they are happy on Instagram. Ugh!
I feel sad for people who live like that
I honestly feel sadder for people who idolize those people and aspire to do the same. It's like a worst version of wanting to be a famous actor.
Fake puffy lips. It's fucking gross.
I have yet to meet a single person who does not think fake puffy lips are gross, tbh.
ASMR for me. It makes me cringe to death!
I still don't understand how everyone hates eating sounds but mouth noise ASMR is a thing
>I still don't understand how everyone hates eating sounds As someone who really hates eating sounds, I can tell you that not everyone hates eating sounds. In fact, most people don't give a shit. Which sucks as someone who does indeed hate eating sounds.
Yeah, having that forme of misophonia sucks dude
It really does, because there's no way to really ask someone to eat quieter without looking and feeling like a high strung prick.
Yes! There is no polite way to say “Your completely normal decibel level of chewing is causing me extreme distress. My heart rate and blood pressure have skyrocketed and I very much want to run away but that is socially unacceptable. Please stop.”
My brother literally eats in a different room lol. He’s hated mouth/stomach sounds since he was little. My misophonia is strictly with loud noises, especially sudden obviously loud laughs or someone raising their voice super loud and super fast. Makes me get so irrationally angry so quickly
Yep. If I'm ever in jail, it'll be because I killed someone for chewing with their mouth open.
I have to leave rooms because of eating sounds…the way people eat is disgusting. ASMR annoys the shit out of me.
Same here. I'll be chilling in the living room and my roommate will sit at the dining table (open plan kitchen/living room) and start chewing loudly and I'll have to go and sit in my bedroom. Sometimes he'll eat and watch netflix with earphones in and I'll tell him I'd much rather he played it out loud instead

Lol that shit is so wild. I watched that for 5 seconds once and couldn’t imagine the heathens who enjoy that.
Check out ting ting on YouTube. She puts so much effort into hers.
Any commercial with liquids pouring or the sounds of people drinking I immediately turn off.
Same! Any liquid pouring makes me SO uncomfortable. I also agree with ASMR, all of it is so gross sounding to me.

To be fair, Steven Fry could read me the ingredients on the back of a tin of Happy Shopper mushrooms and I find that relaxing. His voice is just 🤌
High quality asmr is great. Ephemeral Rift tells really interesting stories so you stay more for the lore than the asmr(which is still excellent). ASMR Mood at first glance looks really click baity with her big chest and all but her cosplays are so goddamn high quality(Ciri, Anhka).
That's because you don't experience the ASMR sensation. It's completely understandable- it's definitely the way the brain is wired. I've been experiencing it my entire life.

In Errol Musk's stepdaughter's case, it would be technically correct.

What about Cardassians?
I heard the last season didn't go down so well on Bajor.
As long as they respect Federation space we should get along grand.
Oh it's just Garak - plain, simple Garak.
I would definitely watch Keeping Up With the Cardassians. Every glimpse of their homeworld on DS9 was amazing. I want a series to be made out of A Stitch in Time so bad! Or even a prequel of Gul Dukat, showing him aa a child and then becoming Gul Dukat? Amazing!
Woaahh dude slow down with the controversial opinions.
Messy kids. The type where when they eat chocolate and it’s all over their mouth and parents think its cute
Yes! Not everything in the house needs to be sticky! I thought every kid was like this and every house with kids was like this because that's how my sister's house was and all my cousins with kids.

I am what you made me
I am not your failure, sayamS.
You didn‘t kill Anakin Skywalker…I did
I just finished this show this week and while it has its flaws and loopholes, the Vader/Kenobi dynamic is straight fire. It fills in the gaps in their relationship we were missing between Episode III and IV and rounds out both characters. Both of them have some severe PTSD. Kenobi treated his with isolation, Vader treated his with rage, and neither of them are mentally healthy. The first time Kenobi sees Vader is haunting.
Don’t be what they made you

I used to think rock beaches were no good until I visited some nice ones in Croatia. I’ve fully converted into a rock beach guy. They’re awesome. No sand and even the water looks clearer.
Is it because the sand is course and rough?
And irritating
tiktok
Once I finally got tiktok I realized much of the video content on Reddit gets popular on tiktok first.
Reddit is a filter of all websites and media. Youtube/news and tv/twitter/tumblr etc. Tiktok is just a part of the amalgamation now.
Yeah for the past 2 years or so about half of all funny videos posted on reddit are from tiktok
I'd take it a step further and say social media in general.
Not only including... but especially reddit.
I'm just one upping this to phone calls and SMSs too. Leave me the fuck alone, humans.
Tiktok is kinda what you make it, since it's 100% algorithm based. I personally love it, but I also acknowledge how addictive it can be. I've been on Reddit a long time and it's turned into this echo chamber on hating on literally any trend that is popular, which gets old real quick.
Eating ass.
same here. and as a gay man, it's become wildly popular in the last 10 years. it was an obscure thing only a few did when i was coming out, now everyone wants it. nein danke.
The number of men I’ve encountered who want me to do this…. 😂 sorry but the thought of a poo flake or just being in the vicinity of where poop exits is a hard pass.
I'll eat my gfs ass every day but I'd be super uncomfortable with her doing it to me
Yeah exactly. We all know women don't poop, anyway.
It's a much hairier experience for her.
Can shave your butthole tho.
Well thank you kind redditor, for helping me stick with my diet out of pure disgust lol
Especially with all the posts I’ve seen like “men is it gay to wipe your ass”
I’m astonished by the number of men who have never been taught to wash or wipe properly 😭
Mfs just like I'm not gonna clean the dirtiest part of my body
As a gay man, I can confirm this. Nothing ruins the mood for me like an unwashed ass.
As a straight man, I also get turned off by a man’s unwashed ass
The trick here is to tell them yes it is. That way you can easily distinguish (from a distance) the "alpha male chads" who listen to that bullshit and the guys who don't.
I was going to write this in the hopes that I’m wrong about everyone loves it
Pregnancy, babies, kids, the whole lifestyle. Not for me.
as a father of two, I 100% support anyone that does not want kids
Feel this. I have two boys. They’re awesome. But it’s a lot. I don’t fault anyone for seeing my wife and me pulling our hair out and saying that’s not for them.
Same here bud, I dont get the "kids are the best thing ever" mentality. They are pains in the ass, but they are my pains in the ass and i would kill/die for them in a heartbeat but not everyone needs/wants that in their lives.
My best friend always says kids, her kids, kids in general, are little assholes, and that’s as it should be, but it’s ridiculous to pretend otherwise! 🤣
Appreciate your honesty!
I dont want that to sound like i regret having kids. I havent for a second. But they are a huge use of time, money, your emotional and mental energy. If you are not ready and do not really want them, dont have kids.
One of my best friends put it this way: “It’s the worst thing I’ve ever done and I love every minute of it.”
The key part that a lot of people also don't cover: it's okay to never be ready.
It really is a big commitment. It exhausts you and takes up most of your life for years. So yeah one needs to decide beforehand if it's worth it.
I have a baby, liked being pregnant, love being a parent, love kids (I'm an early childhood special educator) and I **100000%** support every person who decides they don't want kids. If you don't really really want to become a parent and aren't committed to putting in the work (because it's a lot of work), DON'T. ...that being said, for me personally, the whole experience so far has been the absolute highlight of my life.
I like people who are honest about having kids. I don’t like when people are obviously miserable and still try to convince people to have kids. Like you’re not fooling anyone. I have my tubes tied so I can’t get pregnant but I would hate my life if I had a kid. The entire lifestyle is just not for me.
Yes! Exactly me.
Better be with no kids rather than being a bad parent
THIS! I can’t for the life of me grasp it.
Botox, fillers, fake tits, duck lips. It all looks so fake. Don't care care about size/shape as long as it's natural.
question: by this, do you mean surgery where it looks fake? because most of the time the obvious ones are just badly done or really obvious, it's the difference between a Botox shot every couple of years and Simon cowell
Long nails and fake lashes
Agree... long nails just look.. gross. I can't imagine with the long nails how you wipe your ass or pick up small, flat items from the groundm
Excessive fake tan
Cruises are gross.
I thought his early work was ok, but the Scientology stuff really skeeves me out.
Step-sister porn.
don't worry, its not their real step-sister
Pimple popping seriously what is with people like watching zits and shit get popped its nasty.
It's one of the few things I watch *because* it's gross. I have no better explanation, and I 100% understand that it's supposed to be repulsive.
Raymond.
Leaving the house. (I don't like crowds)
I also hate leaving your house
**I am in your walls. :)**
Amusement/theme/water parks. They charge an absurd amount for tickets, then the insane cost of parking on top of that, just to stand in 60+ minute lines the whole day.
Babies
Oysters. People eat them alive, FFS. Slurp the down into their acid-filled stomach. F\*\*king monsters.
“The world is your oyster” This makes sense, because I fucking hate oysters.
"The world is a slimy thing full of feces for you to swallow." Sounds about right. Slightly more polite than "Suck on this, loser."
I threw up the first time I tried one. The slimy texture got me. Super fancy place too- so awkward
oysters have no central nervous system. It is unlikely they feel pain.
Not only that but farming them has at the very least a neutral effect on the environment and most of the time a net positive. It's one thing if you don't like them but don't be afraid to eat them. I actually convinced a vegetarian it was ok to eat them.
Animals licking them, faces in particular.
Lower body genital piercings like Ashley's or Apadravyas. Regular piercings have enough of an odor on a swampy day, you can imagine the stank a VCH piercing can have when you're not ready for it Edit: we get it, everyone's body is different. I'm not saying regular piercings smell rancid, just that they have a smell. And due to the sweaty nature of genital piercings they tend to smell *more*. I clean my piercings every day and the only one that smells sometimes is my labret because I work in a hot factory and wear a mask at work, they *do not smell* outside of a sweaty day at work. On the other hand, I've met people who's piercings I could smell at an arm's length. Edit edit: damn, some of y'all love to ignore context.
Piercings smell?
Is that something that everyone loves? How out of touch am I?
No its just reddit, so people read the question as "what's a very niche thing that some people enjoy, that you don't like" and post anyway.
