I dont know what your actual feelings are since you just
posted a lazy link new topic amid your 2 dozen others,

but do you actually care? I can tell ijonspeches does,
amazon's behemoth corporatism clearly bothers him and he's
indicted that in several threads now. I get it. But what
about you epic?

I personally don't give the first fuck about this stupid
concert. Like on the list of shit I care about, it's beneath
"do I have enough toilet paper for my next shit?"

I actually installed a bidet so I only use about 1 square,
just to mop the water out of my ass. That's still more
interesting than this concert.

I'm not sure who got laid off and don't care enough to
look... I'm sure they're all "that's my best frenemy"
corporate fuckboys, but if the concert was for the warehouse
workers and the warehouse workers DIDN'T laid off, then this
topic is retarded.

I'd prefer if amazon didn't exist at all, given that they
put my local frys electronics out of business (it was my
favorite place to browse, I used to buy a few dvds there
every week when life was still good) and they're buying up
intellectual property and making woke dogshit out of it....
but amazon does exist and sometimes they'll put on concerts
and shit.

I just wanna know, concisely, if you can, why this was topic
worth posting.

when you see a mainstream reddit post or something

and its like "AMAZON PUTS ON A CONCERT AFTER LAYING OFF
EMPLOYEES"

are you like "oh fuck, we got em e-boys i better click this

do you click the link written by some 2022 activist and say

had to log in to congratulate wolfslice on hid bidet
acquisition.

welcome to the future!

I distinctly remember (this was more than a decade ago)
reading a forum where some yanks discussed the use of this
new device called "tha bidet", in this particular thread
they came to the conclusion that the OP was "using it wrong"
because "you are supposed to "sit facing the controls"

looking inside out from my third world anarchist utopia I
had a good laugh at that. also came to the conclusion your
northerners were all a bunch of cavemen with itchy asses
despite all your nation's economic might.

so again congrats on your leap of faith! hope whoever
installed your bidet left some room between it and the wall
so you can fit your legs facing at the controls thought!

Points: 4899 Status: Regular



Thanks! honestly it's a life changing device. I love it, my
wife loves it. it was cheap and easy to install.

I don't know if I'm doing it wrong, but I do still need a
square of toilet paper in the end. can't just pull my pants
up after using it, the sitauation is a touch too *wet*.

Is this normal? any tips?


 

offline kei9 from Argentina on 2022-11-17 14:58 [#02622373]
Points: 425 Status: Lurker



haha yeah perfectly normal, its just like a little shower
for your bum or vagina so thats about it. "the sitting
facing the controls" thing was funny for me after a life
long relationship with the device, but made me think about
how awkward it is to have to bend and turn to reach the
faucets. theres always new ways to think about old stuff

thanks for the affirmation <3

like I said I'm visiting my mom for thanksgiving (we're
doing it a little early)...

... theres no bidet on this toilet. at this point its like a
part of me missing or something.

hi, i made this thread because a) people here probably know
who steve aoki is b) lol this is tasteless c) lol they hired
steve aoki for it

then i forgot about the thread and it's just sixteen pages
of wolfslice complaining and talking about washing his
butthole.

that, also, hey, seems like an easy gig, i'd have taken it
too. private party for a bunch of people in safety vests as
if this makes up for everything else amazon does

why are you talking about the verge? was that where the
article was? i forget. it was just a lol and i didn't think
it needed, like, academic credentials. but then, i haven't
installed a bidet

but, like, lyrically, you know. otherwise, he can't but help
make it a scooter song. the hype yelling in an isolation

recognizing his voice

that, man, i'm getting deep off the cliff, but if we presume
i am correct -- scooter didn't have autotune as part of
their musical vocabulary back at their peak in, i guess,
early 00's? and here's what they'd have done with it, if
they'd had it back then.

guys when your bidet squirtswater into your anus doesn’t
it splash poo around? also how deep does it clean inside
your anus

you could probably do yourself a little enema with a bidet.
just add a pump for more pressure in your water pipes and
you are set to go. poo is already splashed all over this
world get over it

so today, before i even checked xlt again, i checked the
mail, and i do seem to have received a copy of
"Entrepreneur" magazine with Steve Aoki on the cover

it's kind of rude to ignore a synchronicity so i think i'll
actually read it.

the whole lead-in is that noise music is intriguing because
there's a barrier to entry, repeated riffs on "you have to
climb through the noise to find the gem" and shit like

Before the bicycle was the bicycle, for example, it was
the "dandy horse," an expensive plaything exclusively for
the rich. Then the technology behind its manufacturing
improved, the cost went down, and anyone could use it to
ride to work.


obvious point is: "it's a dandy horse now, but someday
everyone will ride it to work" ...once fucking manufacturing
costs come down? at this point it's nonsense because all
he's talked about so far is selling NFTs

i'll keep reading the article now.

the article is arranged into "lessons" ~ that was lesson 1

lesson 2: smart contracts. arguably a decent idea, that ETH
has more of a point of anything since it can farm out
computation etc, but then those other three letters, FTX,
and this may be used as a closed in-house, controlled
architecture for something like sotheby's auctions i don't
see this becoming the bicycle the way things have been going
in that microcosm thus far

lesson 3: these idiots buy anything, then resell it to other
idiots a few months later at a 300% markup, literal aoki

lesson 5: turn your fame into some sort of apple of eris
meta-game, create 25000 tokens and anyone with 1,024 gets to
record a song with steve aoki but he's scattered them so
hard, and selling just a few off for $$, no one's put enough
together yet for him to get his tokens back. this is really
useless to 99% of the people on the planet, but taylor swift
will dig this, and i have to say, i actually find it wicked
amusing

yeah. ok.

there is one salient point in here: taylor swift can sell of
NFT tokens to route concert ticket access and dodge the bot
scalper flood... but, oh, no, wait, she can't. ticketbastard
is bigger than she is, for once, live nation every venue
anywhere for someone her scale, 25 trailers, and no, you're
only getting a taylor swift NFT auction so long as it's
LiveNation NFTs and the SwifNFTs will gobble them up;
meanwhile it's so confusing many will get scammed and there
will be tears.

the rest is: look how much money i am making with NFTs, you
can monetize your celebrity quite well, take a look at my
clothing line that's like betabrand in bisexual flag colors,
and he's in this magazine because it's for 50+ CEOs who are
trying to understand "this web3 thing" and yeah this is why
i don't read this magazine. i only get it because a 50+ CEO
decided it was so great the whole company should

i kind of "livestreamed" my reactions. paused twice in the
middle of reading it. a bit more after.

if you want a mental image of how this happens -- not saying
you do; but here it is if you want it -- somewhere on here,
recently, i compared myself to an octopus.

i have the magazine to the left of my keyboard, my glasses
are off so i have to lean in close to read, so i'm hunched a
few inches over that as i am transcribing the "web3
aficionados" blind, the subjective feel is that the keyboard
is just floating off to my right somewhere

meanwhile i'm thinking to what i want to write and how do
you spell ms. krebappel? ...le? i'll need to look that up
and... oh shit i made a typo

and usually, i am counting the letters, kind of, so if i
catch a typo i know how many to back up, but i feel like
i've miscounted; i have to look at what i've typed to see
how many times to press backspace, and... oh, nope, i had it
correct after all.

and that's how you write that much that quickly. reading and
transcribing while building an agenda for your response at
the same time
