So, you’re not sending noods then?

Little8Lost@lemmy.world on 15 Jul 09:08 next collapse

I do like to send noods (recipe is adding salt & herbs to the noodle water, then adding cheese to herb noodles)

That’s hot.

For my spotted dick recipe, I like to let the raisins rehydrate in a bowl of lemon juice. Really gives the flavor a little extra pop of brightness.

salted noodle water? well look at mr. fucking gourmet over here, sheesh

latenightnoir@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 15 Jul 15:09 next collapse

Add a pinch of oregano and basil as well (maybe even some freshly ground pepper if you’re looking for a zing) and they’re good to eat as-is! Very seriously, tried this once while high, and now it’s the only way I boil any kind of pasta. Nothing can beat that “core” zest you get when the base is well seasoned! And they complement seasoning cheeses really well, makes for a neat snack!

Little8Lost@lemmy.world on 15 Jul 16:53 collapse

I just use the common grocery store herbes de provence mix which at least also uses oregano

Its really the only way to do noodles after trying it once

latenightnoir@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 15 Jul 17:00 collapse

Ooh, I completely forgot about those mixes, thank you! Most deffo should be even tastier! I kinda’ started mainling basil and oregano since starting to bake pizzas (it is a crime against humanity to not add basil and oregano to a pizza, that is all) and I forgot other seasonings existed:))

And, yep! Plus they work with absolutely anything that way, and make meal prep a lot faster if you’re in a rush (I would eat a double-portion of what you posted, honest truth!)

Little8Lost@lemmy.world on 15 Jul 16:57 next collapse

salt and herbs even

As gross as it is, the people sending dick pics aren’t looking for your approval, it’s a numbers game. If you’re confident enough to hang that dong, someone is gonna be interested. Like I said it’s gross but they don’t do it because it doesn’t work, you catch a fish with enough throws

If they did that irl they would most likely get arrested in most countries so it’s kinda fucked up that they think it’s still fine to do online

Maestro@fedia.io on 15 Jul 07:31 collapse

There was a guy in my fraternity who did this. Every time there was a party of some kind he would swing by all the girls and introduce himself. "Hi, I'm Curry, wanna fuck?" (Curry was his nickname). He always went home with someone.

ericatty@infosec.pub on 15 Jul 08:20 next collapse

As long as he was accepting the no’s gracefully, and wasn’t an asshole to any of them… Then yeah, that’s a pretty honest way to play the numbers game and find someone who is also dtf.

And this was at a frat party… not work or church… so appropriate time and place as well

Did he ever settle down?

Maestro@fedia.io on 15 Jul 08:44 collapse

He always took the no's gracefully (sometimes many dozens a night). I have no idea if he settled down. We lost contact after graduation. It's been 20 years, so I hope he did!

Rusty@lemmy.ca on 15 Jul 19:03 collapse

No he did not. It’s me, Curry. Wanna fuck?

sirimeow@lemmy.world on 15 Jul 10:04 next collapse

I mean did he show everyone his dick without asking if they wanted to see it though? That’s what I meant by likely getting arrested if doing it irl, comparing it to sending dick pics.

But ye I guess at fraternity parties it’s a different vibe.

I’ve met guys who did this, and I was a fan of the approach. It avoids misunderstandings.

Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world on 15 Jul 11:20 next collapse

We know why they do it. That doesn’t make it any less inappropriate. These guys don’t care who they make uncomfortable in their quest for validation. It’s like a kid that throws a fit to gain attention, uncaring about who they might hurt in the process. Except unlike a developing child, these men should be mature enough to know better.

Schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org on 15 Jul 12:28 next collapse

It is. But the reality of those sites is that for a guy the vast majority of your messages will never be read. You are shouting at the void and hoping for the best. This does not incentivize taking the time and psychological investment to write thoughtful messages, because you will send comparatively few and the lack of response is harder to deal with when you’re more invested. It incentivizes sending the quickest messages that you care about the least to as many as possible. The guy didn’t send her a dick pic, he sent every woman in a 50 mile radius the same dick pic hoping that with enough sheer volume he’ll get a response.

It’s basically spam that wants to fuck you, because non-spam options don’t get you anywhere.

daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 15 Jul 12:35 collapse

Does it ever work at all? even 1 in a million times seems too many to me.

I’ve only known of that working in Grindr or sites like that where thirsty population is high, and where most people are seeking for that. But in normal social media I wouldn’t expect to ever work, at all.

I took a picture of a sparrow once. They’re called Spatz in German. In my local dialect, they’re called “Spotz” ʃpɔts in english it’s pronounced like “shpowts” - which is one of the words used for penis as well. Picture in German is Bild and in the local dialect it’s “büdl” ˈbʏdl in English pronounced like “boodle” (you have no pronunciation for ü).

So in my local dialect, a sparrow-pic is pronounced the same as a dick-pick. Spotzbüdl - ʃpɔtsˈbʏdl - spowthsboodle

We kind of do have a pronunciation of ü The cornish town Bude, would be pronounced by locals as “Büd” It’s how I explained to my kids how to handle umlaut words, if it was the English word “lane“ imagine it’s spelled ‘laen’ and then get rid of the e to make ‘län’. It’s rare but some English words still use æ as a sound not a pair of letters. Spelæological for caving for instance. Often simplified to speleological.

TheRealKuni@lemmy.world on 15 Jul 12:51 collapse

I feel like it’s easier to tell English speakers to make an “eee” sound with their lips and then pronounce the vowel in question (ä, ö, ü) with the rest of their mouth (at least that’s how we do it when we sing in German, I know choral German doesn’t always line up with proper German pronunciation).

I don’t see the relevance of her day job here?

latenightnoir@lemmy.world on 15 Jul 08:10 next collapse

While I agree with the fact that this kind of behaviour [i.e. randomly “hanging brain” (my new favourite idiom), unsolicited, in someone’s DMs] is SO many shades of shitty in whichever context it happens, in this case in particular the job description* really does work for building up context and highlighting the dichotomy between the type of people who send dick pics and the type of people they sometimes reach.

As a bottom line, it should serve as a good enough cautionary tale about keeping one’s damned junk in their pants unless someone wants to see it, because one’ll most likely end up looking like an utter asshole while also potentially ruining someone else’s mood for literally no good reason whatsoever.

(still me, blahaj is down)

Edit: to avoid any pointless “but it isn’t just men” replies, of course it isn’t just men, but women seem to not have such a huge friggin’ need to expose themselves to unaware passers-by. This is me, speaking as an AMAB and approximately cishet. And I wouldn’t like to see a random centrefold on my phone while checking my messages, either, to be perfectly frank. There’s a time and a place, and many more factors before I get to that point.

callouscomic@lemmy.zip on 15 Jul 09:26 collapse

So apparently if you aren’t a fucking scientist, then dick pics are okay to send to you.

The “type” of people shouldn’t fucking matter.

I’m sorry, I really don’t have the time to do reading comprehension with you, I’ve put it pretty clearly in the very first Idea I’ve listed. Also, reread my conclusion and see how much someone’s job shows up in what I’ve written.

Have a good’un.

Lightor@lemmy.world on 16 Jul 16:36 collapse

You spent a whole lot of time saying “this shows how dumb men message smart women.” Yeah, that isn’t a surprise and dick pics being sent or received isn’t limited by type of person. Context doesn’t matter. Unsolicited nudes is never ok. It doesn’t matter who has what job. Her bragging and making assumptions about their intelligence is stupid, this is just a hate circle jerk.

You’re entire second paragraph is hot air that doesn’t speak to the point raised. There was no point made in that paragraph at all beyond “dick pics bad.” Yeah, we already agreed on that. Maybe you need to work on your reading comprehension because you don’t seem to understand the topic being discussed. It’s her job and bragging, not you preaching about how dick pics are bad.

Then someone calls that out and you talk down to and insult them.

Such unearned confidence with such ignorance on display isn’t shocking. Those go together a lot on Reddit, it’s just said to see.

Have a good’un.

latenightnoir@lemmy.world on 17 Jul 05:18 collapse

Well, yes, that’s the gist of the whole diatribe, “junk pics bad.” But you seem to have missed my point entirely, too, because my point was “sending junk pics* makes you look like an asshole and will probably ruin the other person’s mood.” Again, re-read my conclusion. And, just in case, that was the point of the post, too. Again, the job description only serves to drive home the point in that particular case.

Also, I genuinely don’t see how what I’ve written is insulting. What, the fact that I apologised that I don’t have the time to do reading comprehension? Well, yeah, because I genuinely did not have the time to do reading comprehension (which, again, may have been entirely pointless even if I did have it, as the commenter didn’t exactly demonstrate having read the entire text before jumping on “oh, so are only scientists allowed to feel offended?!”). Are you bothered by the “reading comprehension” bit? If so, why? That’s literally what that’s called.

You’ve jumped in defence of someone who hadn’t read the whole comment (at least I hope they didn’t read it, otherwise it’s worse!) (edit:) and who started out hostile from the go, and built your argument around misunderstanding my comment (again!). The initial question was (paraphrasing): “how is the job description relevant?” And I did just that in my first paragraph - explain the literary value of the job description as an element of this tale, what its value is in shaping the message and driving the point home. After which I returned to saying that, yes, one’d be an asshole regardless. (Edit 2:) I even went as far as to clarify that one would be an asshole even regardless of the type of junk one possesses in my Edit, not just one’s job.

The fact that YOU choose to hyperfocus on that element and not the vast tracts of text surrounding it on either side does not mean that the original text’s messaging is what you want it to be.

Right back at you!

Goodmorningsunshine@lemmy.world on 16 Jul 16:53 collapse

I don’t agree. To me, it helps to emphasize the ridiculousness of coming in swinging with a dick pic instead of starting an actual human conversation and acknowledging that the person you’re talking to deserves respect and has more going on than a hole for you to stick something in.

That goes without saying. But to be clear, we don’t know the dick pick timing.

Most women learn from a very young age that the real definition of slut is 1) you used to have sex with me and not longer do so you’re a slut; 2) I want to have sex with you but you don’t notice me therefore you’re a slut; and 3) my boyfriend, husband, guy I like thinks you’re hot so you’re a slut. Doesn’t have anything to do with what sex the “slut” may or may not be having. Many women were labelled sluts while they were still virgins.

HalfSalesman@lemmy.world on 16 Jul 16:36 collapse

I say this as someone who loves sluts: Slut is technically a slur.

Omnipitaph@reddthat.com on 16 Jul 17:41 collapse

I will concede and do some research.

For whatever reason I was under the impression that a word had to reference a specific group to be a slur. Like, anyone can be a slut. Man, woman, trans, black, white, et cetera. Like, who is “slut” targeting? Sexually active people? I know that it is weaponized against women, usually those who are NOT actively engaging in promiscuous activities, but I haven’t exactly come across many slurs that can be used against multiple groups.

Perhaps the root of my understanding of what makes a slur itself is the issue. Like I said I’m going to do some research. As a known slut, I apologize to any who came across my comment and were offended.

I guess it would make sense to counter that slur with a counter-slur.

I.e., when somebody calls you a slut, respond by calling them a “needy one” or sth. Might hit a spot.

where the “need” is the need to be an asshole, i mean

Couldn’t imagine ever sending a dik pik, but if I did, it would be self-deprecating and meant to elicit laughter. Talk about “short” comings.

You drastically overestimate the share of people’s impulses that come from rational thinking, and fail to account for the fact that humans are rationalized beings, not rational beings. That means, people are emotionally first, and secondarily taught to act somewhat rational.

I can’t understand the reasoning behind it. Do they think women like that? What’s the success rate? Are women just scrolling when all of a sudden they see a dick pic and are like “wtf I’m so horny now”.

Or they just think if they see tits it makes them horny so women MUST be the same way? If so I feel like it’s been well established that isn’t the case…

It’s probably a mix of throwing shit at the fan, power dynamics, the thrill of the taboo and probably a little bit of a humiliation fetish. It’s never about the receiver. It’s an aggressive act.

This one. The problem is that by the time 90% of the hetro cis male population of one generation has figured this out, a new generation of teen hetro cis males are right behind them. A better sex education class would cover this.

A picture is worth a thousand words

“Hi I am…I am looking for sex”

If you are using a dating website and actually trying. You’d look at a profile, read their bio, and then send a message that had something to do with their bio. (Could also comment on pictures)

But it is a numbers game to an extent and most messages sent will never see a reply.

So what is the least effort highest reward thing to send first? Private picture.

They are hoping that the person opens it and it catches their eye.

If their first thought is to send a private picture, they are not really looking for small talk. So it has the added bonus of weeding out non-sexual people.

It’s no risk, high reward

I’ve never sent one, because anxiety n stuff. But from talking to the few of my friends that do it works quite often on tinder. They basically treat tinder and and instant hookup app. The flow is basically swipe > wanna hook up here’s what i got? > ok come over.

My friend says works 100% of the time on fat women and 15% of the time on the rest. Which is enough to always have a few girls to call over at any time.

I’ve never sent a dick pic and I don’t know if my anxiety/insecurity would allow me to send one even if it was requested.

I can’t fathom just sending one to a stranger without being asked for it.

Flagg76@lemmy.world on 16 Jul 17:51 next collapse

Me neither I did it once after she pretty much threatened to strangle me if I didn’t. 🤣 And yes we still have contact to this day.

But I will never send one unsolicited, it’s so fucking weird, it’s the same as the flashers in the park, what 30 years ago, dumb fucks with no common sense or decency.

And it is so useless, I mean the woman that would like it I wouldn’t like, and the woman I would like will hate it. So there is nothing to gain unless you have a really low bar.

JackbyDev@programming.dev on 16 Jul 18:00 collapse

I’ve gotten some on Discord. Men don’t send unsolicited dick pics to show off, they show them to harass. I only get them from people I’m not paying attention to. Like if someone messages me and I stop messaging back that’s typically when I get them. You can’t fathom doing it because you’re (hopefully lol) not someone who would sexually harass people. They don’t feel shame for doing it. To them, getting any sort of reaction to it is the goal. Telling them “you’re disgusting” would be giving them attention and something they want.

PSA: When you get unsolicited dick pics, block and report. Don’t respond. Don’t reward their behavior. If you’d like to go on some crusade to tell their mother (I’ve seen some people do that lol) that’s another topic, but never reply to them directly by saying anything.

It sounds like my experience is a little different from this woman’s though, I typically get them after I stop answering. I haven’t ever gotten one in the first message. But the “uh, hello??” part tracks with what I’ve seen. It’s attention seeking behavior.
