In the comfort and privacy of my own home, sometimes it is nice to feel a breeze twixt my nethers.

Am I the only person that actually wants an openable fly in their boxer-briefs? All these companies these days willing to make 2 distinct pockets for balls and shaft but won’t let me poke out for fresh air or a bathroom trip without having to deal with the waistband drive me nuts. My cock didn’t commit any crimes, I don’t want to force it into solitary confinement…

The worst part is I found my perfect underwear several years back and the company has basically disappeared. They had a sort of soft and loose-ish horizontal fly that basically revolutionized my relationship with my crotch and I can’t find more :(

I just read the synopsis. Wtf did in just read?

Its really dumb, but Down Periscope.

Same. Parts designed in freecad take me about 10 times longer and have about 1/4 of the “polish” and nice finishing touches compared to the ones I’ve done in fusion.

3d printing and even designing my own basic parts/items. Seems daunting as all hell to get right but honestly it wasn’t that bad to figure out. Fusion360 was a dream to learn. I’ve been trying to make the switch to freecad and struggling though. :(

Plus Pinky can read and Brain can’t, canonically.

Oh cool. I somehow completely forgot about balloons in general, lol. Thanks for the history!

I read the title as “Oh beans” and somehow it still fits, lol.

Wat?

This just brought me flash-backs of the absolute nut-bar I used to play DnD with that would tap dice on her teeth before rolling them “to check if they were real.”

This is the closest thing to context I may ever have to that experience. I thought she was checking real vs imaginary, maybe she was checking if they were… ummm… real bones? wait. no.

Staged a coup in my Archage guild, we managed to get away with basically all of the guild assets.

Joined guild, made friends with one of the officers and his small in-group of pvpers. Was a reliable asset and helped us get a couple of merchant ships and a galleon, plus had farms just full of high value trade packs.

Problem was the GM and I didn’t get along very well. She wanted to dictate how we named the ships in a way that I felt was cringe as hell and generally wasn’t open to input or criticism at all. One day I logged in at like 2 or 3 am when no one else in the guild was online and I just left the guild. Next day I logged in and sent messages to the people I’d made friends with and told them the GM kicked me, since it was well known she didn’t like me.

Stoked the flames for an hour or so and convinced most of the in-group to quit after we took all the assets we could. Drew a giant dick with barley plants on the front lawn of the GM’s player house and then they all g-quit.

She raged for months, shouting in global chat that we were a bunch of pirates anytime she saw us, and tried to gank us multiple times, poorly. It was glorious, but I never told any of them what really happened.

We also invented boatnado. The bouancy physics had a fun glitch where you could make a merchant ship spin on its end at an ever increasing rate and the mast would just fire any ships that got too close off into the horizon. Never fully managed to weaponize this discovery, but we had a ton of fun with it.

You are expecting dominos to do it for you. That’s literally what you are asking. They aren’t going to do that for you because they make more money if you ignore the “deals”. Even a tiny barrier is going to keep out some number of people that don’t find value in spending 30 seconds to save 25% on a $30 tab because they have the money to not even notice, which increases profitability. Their line goes up. Our system forces all these companies to worry about that line going up.

That said, they aren’t trying to hide it from you, it is the largest thing on their store page, and their people on the phone will happily tell you about it.

Someone else made the same analogy, it is just like going to a drive through and ordering a burger, fries, and drink separately and not asking for a combo. Same products, but most places it will cost you more to order them separately than to order the combo.

If you are still mad about it, you aren’t mad at Dominos, you are mad at the core of our current economic system.

Dude could have saved like $6+tax and gotten more food, and is still arguing that nothing could have been done…

Lead a horse to water and all that…

What’s mildly infuriating here is OP… People are trying to explain how you could have saved almost 1/3 of your purchase price and you just argue with them and keep shouting from your soapbox.

Unfortunately, price shopping is a part of every transaction if you are trying to get the best deal. If you aren’t invested enough to read the largest banner on the shop website to save almost 1/3 of your total, then getting the best price was clearly not a concern when you ordered. Yes, you are expected to do that yourself, just like buying anything else in the commerce system we have been using for decades. It’s real boomer/privileged energy expecting that to just be done for you.

My favorite kind of math is dick math. Thank you.

wtf even is Birdeye? Our work e-mails have all been being spammed by them claiming we have bad reviews and they can help. I’ve been ignoring them mostly, but noticed the text of the reviews reek of being AI written and none of them show up on any of the review sites (that we keep track of anyway). Is this some LLM spam company basically?

The pictures isn’t all grey. The painting is, but Bob, his shirt, etc. are all in color. :)

My guess is it’s just a car with a battery 5 times bigger than their comparison vehicle, can’t do over 30, go up a hill, or pass any safety standards.

Or it’s fictional.

I took that as like a kid who grew up reading car magazines, but if you threw them behind the wheel would have no real idea what they are doing. I’m thinking of it kind of like fallout 3 where it won’t even let you wear the armor until you find someone willing to give you “power armor training”. Something something “if you don’t know what you’re doing, the armor will snap your bones”.

Also, as someone else said, Maximus is clearly a low-int build, so even if he’s read it, he didn’t retain all of it, lol.
