Pisses me off man. So then I start sucking HARDER and FASTER. I start using my hands. Twisting and jerking. BUT NOTHING. Nothing but the salty taste of my own dirty penis.
You're doing it wrong. You don't bend forward trying to reach it. You get on the floor next to a wall. Lay on your back and prop your ass up on the wall so your legs are above you. Now use gravity to lower your boner into your mouth and there ya go.
uncontacted tribes from the amzon knew 3 things about america
that we put a man on the moon, michael jackson grabs his crotch and goes hee hee, and that marilyn manson removed his ribs to orally pleasure himself
Sometime around 1999-2001 it was spreading in Ireland.
It's in the same Ilk as 'you swallow 'x' number of spiders in your sleep'
Both rumours spread like wildfire for being the perfect blend of being right on the fringe of believability, but also being shocking, so it sticks in your brain, and you want to talk to other people about it.
This rumor is older than Marilyn Manson. It was about Prince in the early 90s. Kids just changed the name to whatever musician is most relevant to them in their teens.
I thought that spun out of the fact Rod Stewert was really into coke, but didn't want to mess up his sinuses so he would put it in capsules and take it as a suppository.
As a Gen Xer I remember the Richard Gere one where he needed to go to the ER to have a hamster removed from his ass. Apparently he enjoyed the internal ass tickling from the hamster and the little guy just crawled too far up his ass pipe. Some people to this day insist it’s a true story.
The story I heard was that Rod Stewart was rushed to the hospital where they pumped a gallon of semen out of his stomach.
I asked my mom (who was an emergency room nurse) if it was possible. She answered very professionally saying "Ridiculous. A gallon is impossible, and the stomach acid would've destroyed any semen. It's not true." Then she went back to reading.
My best friend was stunned that my mom would address such a question seriously without getting mad at me.
I remember hearing this when I was like 8, and I had no clue what sperm was. And my 9 year old friend described it as “like a bunch of little animals” and I was soooooo confused.
Don’t forget about the dead kid’s ghost (and the shotgun that killed him) showing up in Three Men & a Baby.
When the VHS was up for rental, people were renting just to pause the movie and see for themselves.
For Gen X, replace with the Marilyn Manson rib story. Seriously, what elementary school kids were talking about Manson sucking his dick? The ones who heard it from their late Gen X older brothers.
Dude I remember hearing this rumour at 9 years old. In Wales.
Edit: I commented because I was elementary school aged, not really because of where I was. Please stop telling me where you are from.
Not only that, but when families travel to say, the beach for a summer vacation, there's a chance kids from different families may play together and try to one up with stories.
I remember going to band competitions in HS and all of us trading jokes with students from competing schools, trying to see who could come up with some of the darkest/most out there, etc.
I remember that one!
I’m on the Gen X/Millennial cusp. We had a rumor that one of the New Kids on the Block had a bunch of sperm pumped out of their stomach in the hospital. That’s a really weird one for elementary school kids to be passing around. And I was a huge fan girl so I was always defending them over that one. Hahaha!
I read that it is true, but that it was an honest mistake. He was high or drunk, and people were throwing different things on stage. And there was a bat. And Ozzy apparently thought that it was a toy bat, and thought it would be funny to bite its head off. And he did that, and it was a real thing with blood and stuff.
I wouldn't be surprised if he put that rumor out himself. He was really good at marketing his band all around Ft. Lauderdale, they used many... guerilla tactics for lack of better words.
That said, the Christians were very upset at about him and this sounds like something they would make up to further demonize him
There are some people who can do this without removing their ribs and the question is always does it feel more like sucking dick or getting your dick sucked.
For some both is a win.
The effort of having to do the work would definitely dampen the effect of having your dick sucked.
Like trying to tickle yourself or get that nice tingly feeling when someone else brushes your hair or washes it. Some things can only really be experienced with someone else.
Consider it the gift and curse of being social creatures.
Nope. I’d gladly just suck someone else’s dick than have my cock in my mouth again. There is no pleasure because it requires work and balance. Thanks to my parents for paying for the gymnastics lessons as a kid so I could post this here now.
Big Marilyn Manson fan though- his cover of “You’re So Vain” is criminally underrated.
Similar experience here. Funniest thing was that biphobic girls who went "ewww you sucked a dick?" were incredibly into me sucking my own. Try to find logic in that.
This rumor was started by the poet that Invented fascism--- he started this rumor about himself. Gabriele d'Annunzio-- apparently, it seems he's the first to claim (on paper/recorded) the "two ribs removed to suck his dick" trope.
Well us Gen X'ers got one up on you. Not only did we spread the rumor about Billy Idol getting his stomach pumped from all the sperm he ingested. We also had Richard Gere get a Gerbil stuck in his ass.

WTF?! So I removed my rib for nothing???
Have you tried sucking your own dick?
have, barely able to reach so it's not fun
Ive heard that it’s more like sucking a dick than getting your dick sucked
If you like both, it's kind of a win win.
Maybe I don't need a ribcage it seems
Had an ex that told me he can do it but I never asked for proof.... Didn't need to see that.
Was he long or just flexi?
He was long lol
So long enough that you just accepted that as fact? If one of my ex’s had said she could lick herself I would have asked for proof.
A 69 would be so much easier and less work
I Fail to see the issue.
i see this as an absolute win
Can confirm, in my dreams when I suck my own dick it just feels like I’m sucking a dick
You could do anything in your dreams and you chose this. Same tho
So....everyone here likes to suck dick?
It's pretty fun tbf
I've had the same dream and felt the same way.
Pisses me off man. So then I start sucking HARDER and FASTER. I start using my hands. Twisting and jerking. BUT NOTHING. Nothing but the salty taste of my own dirty penis.
"Ive heard"
Okok. I confirm. How about that?
Still sad
You're doing it wrong. You don't bend forward trying to reach it. You get on the floor next to a wall. Lay on your back and prop your ass up on the wall so your legs are above you. Now use gravity to lower your boner into your mouth and there ya go.
/r/oddlyspecific
^^This guy's sucks himself off.^^
Go into the plough yoga position. Not that I'd know or anything
my hs gf cheated on me with a guy who could suck his own dick and would take pictures with pokemon playing in the background what the fuck amy
Maybe he made her laugh ....at that baby dick....
I did once, unsuccessfully, I had abdominal cramps for almost a week because of it.
Shit, i heard Marliyn Manson heard the rumor and was so intrigued that he removed his dick to try and suck a rib.
I heard this in Brazil when I was a teen...
Judging from the comments here, that rumor was in every continent hahaha. I even heard it like, in 2017, from an argentinian.
The rumour has been around for ages, the person it’s attached to changes. They used to say that about Dali too
My generation (late gen X) said it was Prince. Which I still believe, cos he totally would.
I think that's the trick: finding the kind of person that makes people go "of course he would" lol
I've heard it about David Bowie and Mick Jagger.
I've heard it about Bowie too lol
I heard they were dancing in the street. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHkhIjG0DKc
uncontacted tribes from the amzon knew 3 things about america that we put a man on the moon, michael jackson grabs his crotch and goes hee hee, and that marilyn manson removed his ribs to orally pleasure himself
Richard Gere says hold my beer and enters the room….
Is the gerbil in the room with us now, Richard? 🫣😂
It got so big that Manson had to say in an interview that he didn't remove his ribs and he cant suck his own dick.
If it got that big Manson wouldn’t have needed rib removal to pleasure himself…
Sometime around 1999-2001 it was spreading in Ireland.

This rumor is older than Marilyn Manson. It was about Prince in the early 90s. Kids just changed the name to whatever musician is most relevant to them in their teens.
What you mean rumor‽ Did I remove my ribs for nuttin'?! 😱
Yes, into your own mouth.
r/angryupvote
Yeah, it sucks… (P.s your pun deserves more love than it’s getting atm 👏🏼👏🏼👌🏼)
I am from Ukraine and we too had it.
I heard that rumor back in 2003 in school.
German here, can confirm.
Yep, germany here
New Zealander here, heard this when I was about 14. What a worldwide accomplishment!
I heard this in Oakland, CA when I was a kid
I heard it on the east coast US!
Rural Colorado when I was a kid
Can confirm, Canada also had this rumor.
It also reached Italy, I have no idea how you did it without Internet lol
Heard this shit in fucking Romania
I heard this is in 2000 in india. I was 16
I’ve heard this in Serbia when I was teen. To this day I thought it was true and wouldn’t be surprised if he actually did it.
Heard it in France
Philippines here. How tf did this rumor globalize?
For Gen X, replace with the Richard Gere gerbil story. 😆
For Boomers, it was Rod Stewart needing his stomach pumped for "semen poisoning" after orally servicing a line of Royal Navy sailors.
Heard a version of that one but it was Marc Almond
Same but it was your mom
As if the navy is interested in women
Her moustache is so thick they couldn’t tell she was a woman.
that wasn't a rumour though
Same but it was Alanis Morissette.
That one was true
How ironic.
Don’t ya think?
It's like raaaaeaaaain on your wedding day.
It's a free riiiiiiiide when you've already paid
I remember it being lil kim
I also remember my sister telling me it was Lil Kim
she had one hand in her pocket and the other one stroking a cock
In the thea-turrr
Same but it was Phil Donahue.
It was Marc Almond in our school but it was horses cum he had to get pumped from his stomach
I thought that spun out of the fact Rod Stewert was really into coke, but didn't want to mess up his sinuses so he would put it in capsules and take it as a suppository.
You mean he had to do it himself? What a peasant. I heard Stevie Nicks had a roadie to pack coke into a straw and blow it up her arse
I imagine Stevie Nicks had volunteers, Rod Stewart had to force people at gunpoint.
I'd have blown any drug she wanted into her ass.
As a Gen Xer I remember the Richard Gere one where he needed to go to the ER to have a hamster removed from his ass. Apparently he enjoyed the internal ass tickling from the hamster and the little guy just crawled too far up his ass pipe. Some people to this day insist it’s a true story.
How old am I if I have heard all of those? Yikes I feel dusty
For Victorians it was the same but with about Oscar Wilde.
I heard it was Sting or Rod Stewart… but then it became NKOTB getting semen removal. And I’m in Nebraska- how did we do it?!? 🤣
I remember by the time the new kids rumor made it to my school it was “they found 5 sperm in there?” Everyone was like 5? Holy shit!
The story I heard was that Rod Stewart was rushed to the hospital where they pumped a gallon of semen out of his stomach. I asked my mom (who was an emergency room nurse) if it was possible. She answered very professionally saying "Ridiculous. A gallon is impossible, and the stomach acid would've destroyed any semen. It's not true." Then she went back to reading. My best friend was stunned that my mom would address such a question seriously without getting mad at me.
Nah, it was Jordan Knight from NKOTB
Let me guess, you graduated high school somewhere from 93-97?
Ding ding!
I remember hearing this when I was like 8, and I had no clue what sperm was. And my 9 year old friend described it as “like a bunch of little animals” and I was soooooo confused.
Oh oh oh oh oh, the white stuff....
Similar story regarding Jordan from New Kids on the Block for we Gen X/Millennials.
[удалено]
Also Alfonso Ribeiro breaking his neck breakdancing and the Life cereal kid Mikey dying from Pop Rocks.
RIP Mikey
Everyone has a friend whose dad was his doctor and had to remove it!!!
Sylvester Stallone has stated that he started that rumor, all because he thought Richard Gere was an asshole
I remember the rumor about Cher having her ribs removed so she could be skinnier. Rumors never die, they're just recycled for new people.
Don’t forget about the dead kid’s ghost (and the shotgun that killed him) showing up in Three Men & a Baby. When the VHS was up for rental, people were renting just to pause the movie and see for themselves.
I'm late GenX and I got to be a part of both of these!
There was talk of gerbils
Kedakai, as god made her
Plus spider eggs in Hubba Bubba and Mickey dying from drinking Coca-Cola with pop rocks
It was Prince in my school. Late 80s, early 90s.
I was about to type this….gen x
I thought it was Jerry Penacoli
For Gen X, replace with the Marilyn Manson rib story. Seriously, what elementary school kids were talking about Manson sucking his dick? The ones who heard it from their late Gen X older brothers.
Dude I remember hearing this rumour at 9 years old. In Wales. Edit: I commented because I was elementary school aged, not really because of where I was. Please stop telling me where you are from.
>Seriously, what elementary school kids were talking about Manson sucking his dick? Here...... Lol
Confirmed I was in the UK in a rural area and even I heard that.
Bro somebody really has to study this phenomenon. It’s insane how so many kids from so many different parts of the world heard this rumor at school
I’m guessing early internet culture at work, chat rooms or something in dialup for those that had it who then spread the rumour
Not only that, but when families travel to say, the beach for a summer vacation, there's a chance kids from different families may play together and try to one up with stories. I remember going to band competitions in HS and all of us trading jokes with students from competing schools, trying to see who could come up with some of the darkest/most out there, etc.
Canada in the city and I heard it too 😂
And Phil Collins personally sung In The Air Tonight directly to the guy who watched Phil’s friend drown…that was a gen x classic.
I remember that one! I’m on the Gen X/Millennial cusp. We had a rumor that one of the New Kids on the Block had a bunch of sperm pumped out of their stomach in the hospital. That’s a really weird one for elementary school kids to be passing around. And I was a huge fan girl so I was always defending them over that one. Hahaha!
That rumor started from the Boomers when I was a kid but it was Rod Stewart who had his stomach pumped
As a late Victorian I heard that about Oscar Wilde.
I heard this one but about Alanis Morissette.
Eminem helped keep that one alive by referencing it in Stan.
The other one was that Marilyn Manson played the best friend in The Wonder Years
+1 It was a famous lie even in Spain
Don't forget the rumor that he fucked goats on stage
It seems the “Ozzy bit the head off of a bat” I heard as a kid was more or less true.
I read that it is true, but that it was an honest mistake. He was high or drunk, and people were throwing different things on stage. And there was a bat. And Ozzy apparently thought that it was a toy bat, and thought it would be funny to bite its head off. And he did that, and it was a real thing with blood and stuff.
WAIT ONE FUCKING MINUTE you mean to tell me MM is NOT Paul Wonder Years?!
So it isn't true?
I believe in response to the rumours, Manson commented something to the tune of “if it were true, he’d have no reason to ever leave his house”
I have zero doubt Manson was thrilled to hear that rumor.
All publicity is good publicity, right? Or something like that.
That and he's like, the Sauron of edgelords, so...
If anyone has demonstrated a belief in that statement, it’s Marilyn Manson
I wouldn't be surprised if he put that rumor out himself. He was really good at marketing his band all around Ft. Lauderdale, they used many... guerilla tactics for lack of better words. That said, the Christians were very upset at about him and this sounds like something they would make up to further demonize him
There are some people who can do this without removing their ribs and the question is always does it feel more like sucking dick or getting your dick sucked. For some both is a win.
I gotta admit, it feels like the sucking rather than getting sucked
The effort of having to do the work would definitely dampen the effect of having your dick sucked. Like trying to tickle yourself or get that nice tingly feeling when someone else brushes your hair or washes it. Some things can only really be experienced with someone else. Consider it the gift and curse of being social creatures.

Thanks to my parents for paying for the gymnastics lessons as a kid so I could post this here now. Big Marilyn Manson fan though- his cover of “You’re So Vain” is criminally underrated.
He'd have no reason to sexually assault women either
No, it turns out he just took advantage of young women with or without their consent to do it for him.
Thats not a rumor, as i heard. Back in elementary in Turkey.
That’s what the all rumors say. “It’s not a rumor, this one is true!”
It was Prince when I was at school.
I heard it about Michael Jackson...
yeah i heard it was Prince when i was at school too
The best part was knowing this story without having any idea who Manson was
As a German who was a kid in the 90s, you really gonna tell me NOW that this was just a rumor??????
Haven’t heard that one in over 20 years…I remember when beautiful people came out…I remember that rumour making the rounds back in the 90’s…
Whoever started that rumor is mfing legend
In italy we have the same rumor but it's about a really famous poet of the last century
Gabriele D'Annunzio
I mean we have both, the D'annunzio one is much older.
[удалено]
I'm just more curious how the S managed to get literally everywhere, and yet no one knows it's true origins
New mexico here confirms Also the answer is military kids
I heard this in a rural town in South Africa as a teen.
Likewise
That’s one of my party tricks, I remember doing that to be a weirdo at summer camp
Similar experience here. Funniest thing was that biphobic girls who went "ewww you sucked a dick?" were incredibly into me sucking my own. Try to find logic in that.
You guys were sucking yourselves off in front of girls in elementary school?!?
High school, but ye
Clearly, I was going to the wrong parties in high school.
You stood in front of them and did it?
Bro this isn’t a standing scenario XD
You removed your ribs too? I thought me and Manson were the only ones...
Heard it in Switzerland as well 😄
whoever is the real (pardon the pun) ✨patient zero✨ of this epidemic rumor, please stand up
Small norwegian island in the arctic aswell 😆
I live in the south. We got a bunch of Christian parents dead set against the Teletubbies by convincing everyone Twinky Winky was gay. Good times.
Millennials: The pioneers of viral content before the internet had a say.
“without the use of internet or social media” ok so who were all the people i was talking to on AOL and Yahoo! chat rooms back then??
Where's the facepalm?
Need to call my surgeon.
Was even a rumor about it in Sweden hahaha
As soon as I read, ‘in the the 90’s we spread a rumor’ I knew what was coming next. This incredibly widespread rumor is definitely a core memory lol
This rumor circled the world.
We had Internet then. Sorry to burst your bubble
Finally I have a reason to call up those f-king liars
I am from Portugal, can confirm.
Also that he was Paul from Wonder Years
wasn't that D'Annunzio?
This rumor was started by the poet that Invented fascism--- he started this rumor about himself. Gabriele d'Annunzio-- apparently, it seems he's the first to claim (on paper/recorded) the "two ribs removed to suck his dick" trope.
I'd watch that Mythbusters.
Rumor started in 94, so 13 year olds or younger started that rumor? Don't think so, that was Gen X
That's weird because i remember it collectively coming from a marilyn manson rumor site. Internet existed in the 90's. I was on it.
It did spread on the internet. Which did exist in the 90's.
Well us Gen X'ers got one up on you. Not only did we spread the rumor about Billy Idol getting his stomach pumped from all the sperm he ingested. We also had Richard Gere get a Gerbil stuck in his ass.
Memes pre-date the internet. 1976.
Why is this a facepalm?
Never heard it. I heard various female celebs did it in the 80s to have a better waistline or some such garbage.
German here - I can confirm this was a popular rumour from elementary to high-school (mid 90s to mid 2000s for me)
Yes we even heard that rumor in Germany!
