SPREAD CHEEKS NOT CENSORSHIP

Instructions unclear, potato stuck in anus

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.today 4 points 1 week ago

Now you know if her ring is as big as a potato!

Or you just got engaged to a potato. Depending on which instructions you attempted to follow.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 47 points 1 week ago

Here's the original. It's so old and popular that it's the first hit in a reverse image search 🤷‍♂️

[–] Cheesus@lemmy.ca 39 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Anus isn't even a bad word, this is getting out of control.

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Definitely. Did we miss the Mormon take over or something i didn’t see it in the news

[–] Cheesus@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago

Right!? Are we just not allowed to reference certain body parts anymore? How are the Republicans at their next convention going to explain where they want the twink they hit up on Grindr where they want dat dick?

[–] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Tbf, you just described the past 10 months

Ah so it was actually the evangelicals

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 27 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Normalise down voting posts with this bullshit censorship.

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

I do. I like to let people know why though. Seems fair to me.

What the fuck is an “a::s”

[–] Jesus_666@lemmy.world 107 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

A shorthand for 000a:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:000s. It's part of the alphabet v6 spec.

[–] coolman@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I love that this is an accurate expansion of a::s if s was in hex

Member field s of the lowercase class a.

[–] seraphine@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

in the standard galactic alphabet (a.k.a minecraft enchantment table language) "::" is the letter "r" so you could say this says "ars", which kind of makes it come full circle. all puns intended.

Actual tip that was passed to me:

Talk to a jeweler in advance, then bring the significant other in to do some casual jewelry window shopping.

Jewelers get this request often, and most love to be in on a mini-heist.

Your jeweler can discreetly steer the interaction to get their ring size and either announce it in front of you, or just jot it down for you to pick up later.

Even if you get caught, it's just flattering to your significant other that you went to the trouble.

[–] socsa@piefed.social 6 points 1 week ago

Most jewelers will also happily sell you a ring with a free resize service.

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 17 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Anybody uses their ring finger for fingering? Asking for OP.

[–] HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The ring fingers a whore, it's only useful for fingering if its a threesome with the other fingers.

Better solution, suck on her finger and then suck on other things till you find one that feels the same.

Wait....

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 5 points 1 week ago (3 children)

How much longer do I wait?

If he comes back with an engagement bracelet we'll know what their kink is

Fun one to tell the grandkids

Better than the inherited watch from Pulp Fiction, for sure.

And if she says no, you still got fingered twice!

[–] Gonzako@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

learn bondage and tie her up

[–] ClockworkOtter@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Don't people normally aim slightly larger then go back to get it resized?

[–] MidsizedSedan@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Somehow I don't think this is14 hours old...

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Fun fact: that's actually the original reason we use rings to propose!

[–] ThisIsAManWhoKnowsHowToGling@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ooorr you can do what I did and ask nicely to measure her finger with a sizing tool

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I did that. They were somehow still surprised when I proposed. Apparently measuring their ring finger was not enough of a hint.

Is proposing when you don't even know what ring size your partner wears really the wisest idea? This is how those videos of a big public proposal where the proposee says no start.

[–] pbjelly@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

+1 - proposals never should be a surprise

I did have a friend who was proposed to with a placeholder ring. I think the jeweler sold the fiancé a ring and said he could come back/return it and have her pick out one she wants. That said, she preferred a diamond as opposed to an alternative so it was easier finding a jeweler that was accommodating.

Some people enjoy the surprise of when a proposal happens (as long as both parties are previously aligned on getting married).

Everyone’s got their preferences! Some people want the ring as a surprise and some would rather pick it out together, etc. And some are like my other friend, who wanted no proposal, picked out the ring herself, had her fiancé buy it, and called it a day!

[–] RedC@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

The proposal itself shouldnt be a surprise, when it happens should.

Like, you should know they want to marry you before you do it. But the whole ceremony of a formal proposal can and should be left a surprise!

[–] Benaaasaaas@group.lt 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I didn't know my fiance's ring size, surprise surprise she didn't know either, I got her friend to check it during the friends hens party. But overall if you're not oblivious, you should know if your other half wants the proposal.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Couldn't agree more. By the time you're ready to propose, not only should you already know their ring size, the other person should also be aware of your plans well in advance.

Springing a proposal on someone without discussing it with them beforehand is beyond fucked up.
