  • If you had a small part from a song play every time you entered a room with other people, what would you want your theme to be?

  • Lol, fuck that. Embrace the cringe, it's very liberating. The moment you stop worrying about being cringe as fuck is the moment you're free to do most anything.

  • I personally like your contributions, they're coming from a novel place compared to the average user here (primarily 30+ dudes in my experience - lots of people that don't fit that mold too but I feel comfortable saying 30+ dude is probably the default here). I can see folks being suspicious of you given this, but it's not like you're going around slipping Venmos in people's DMs. You just hornypost - OMG it's almost like young women have a high sex drive sometimes, crazy concept. And there's been a few of those posts that have made me chuckle.

    Welcome home kid. Keep being you, more diversity of users and content is a good thing. Anyone makes you feel like shit about participating here, block their ass. Hell, to a certain extent this holds for me even if you're a 30+ dude pretending to be a young woman (oldest game on the internet, lol) - so long as you're just posting for fun and not trying to get anything from anyone else, or put some poor idiot in a compromising position, who really gives a shit?

    Will say that the girls over at https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/femcelmemes would probably (?) enjoy your company if you haven't checked them out yet.

  • Too protective/remarkably protective? I made this up, but if usage started with peasantry or something it kind of makes sense.

  • hands over DMT vape Just keep hitting this, you'll get there eventually.

    [/s, but people have reported the 'living a surreal but otherwise ~realish life experience for a while' experience before, rather than the more common 'machine elves in psychedelic munchkin land' experience. I personally wouldn't touch that shit with a 20 foot pole - I like weird but there's such a thing as too weird]

  • Have you ever hitchhiked before?

    Jump

  • Oof - glad your friend got out of it unmolested (...no pun intended, I swear). Given everyone came out ok, chalk this one up to live and learn.

  • Hooray for trail magic! Reminds me of the time I hoofed it to an outlying town and back (think it was about 8 hours round trip?), had a few folks slow down and ask if I needed a ride. Restores your faith in humanity a touch.

  • Since there's nothing better than a close call story, are there any you'd like to share? Feel free to balance it out with one of the fun stories as well if you want (since close call stories, as well as sheer bad outcome stories, colour a lot people's impressions about hitching).

  • Why is traveling such a big deal for people?

    Jump

  • I think there's people who look at 'traveller' as an identity, much like a lot of folks do with other interests. I'd argue there's some classism involved as well, as travel is a status symbol. However, there's also the (frankly true) idea that travel can broaden your perspective as you meet people from different cultures living life slightly (or dramatically) differently than you do at home.

    Ultimately, people who deride people with little travel experience are rude. A better approach is to encourage people who voice an interest in travel but seem uncertain. There's also something to be said about a solid knowledge and appreciation of one's own backyard and community.

  • Well that's an instant sub. Thanks!

    And 100%. Risky? Yep (here in Canada we have something called the Highway of Tears in British Columbia, which for a lot of folks is the first thing that comes to mind when you say 'hitchhiking'). But there's some great experiences to be had as well alongside those risks.

    I will acknowledge that as a white guy, the risks are slightly lower than they might be for other folks, and this is definitely a function of privilege. But specifically Canadian context, can't speak for other places.

  • Between 2005 and 2006 (can't remember if the first trip was the year prior to the second one, or the same year at different points of the summer).

    As I was reading through this, I noticed I didn't mention cellphones. I did have a cellphone at the time of the second trip for sure. Whether I turned it off on the ferry, or didn't have reception on Saltspring, or left it at home, I honestly don't remember. Probably the first or third option to avoid interactions with my mom while I was doing something dumb (I used this strategy a couple of times).
