Instructions unclear, potato stuck in anus

TheGiantKorean@lemmy.today · 4 pts · 261d (1 reply)

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.

I, for one, welcome my new potato wife.

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

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

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

Cheesus@lemmy.ca · 9 pts · 262d

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?

Normalise down voting posts with this bullshit censorship.

krashmo@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 262d

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

dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de · -7 pts · 262d (4 replies)

I’m normalising downvoting people complaining about something so insignificant. It’s so boring to see it all the time.

Johanno@feddit.org · 8 pts · 261d (3 replies)

INSIGNIFICANT?!

I don't understand why you people censor yourself? Half the time the platform doesn't even care. Also it isn't like censorship in those cases makes any sense. Everybody knows what is meant and it just annoys people. Also censorship is usually sth. Bad there are very very few cases where it is justified.

Watchu mean you people

Johanno@feddit.org · 1 pts · 260d

Mostly Americans since they seem to be the most ones who self censor.

But more specially people who censor shit like fuck, ass and so on

dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de · -3 pts · 261d

I never said I do it I’m just not that fucking arsed if people choose to do it. At the end of the day you can write however you want. It annoys only people with a chip on their shoulder about it.

This place is depressing as hell with all the negativity, and I say that as a cynic.

zanyllama52@infosec.pub · 7 pts · 261d

I downvote any self censorship nonsense I encounter

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.

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

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

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

I think they're called anal beads.
sure fun for your wedding night.

HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 262d (5 replies)

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 · 4 pts · 262d (3 replies)

How much longer do I wait?

Traditional knowledge is that you just hold your lips in that shape and then excuse yourself go measure.

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

Anus or ring?

ClockworkOtter@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 261d

Yes

gmtom@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 262d

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

stevedice@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 261d (5 replies)

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.

RedC@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 260d

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 · 5 pts · 261d

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.

pbjelly@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 261d

+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!

Psythik@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 261d (1 reply)

Couldn't agree more. By the time you're ready to propose, not only should you already know their ring size, your SO 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.

BanMe@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 261d

I proposed on stage in front of 15,000 people which was fun but Jesus yeah I knew how that question would go because it was a hypothetical, complete with "I wonder why he's got a ring sizing kit" in the weeks leading up. It being public was a genuine surprise to him, he thought he was on stage for a different reason.

People afterwards thought I was being totally spontaneous with it. Oh god no. What if he'd said no? Yikes.

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