I set up the Redirector Firefox addon to take me to imgur images' https://imgur.artemislena.eu/ mirror when I open them (though sadly doesn't work with embedded images).

I was sort of joking in my previous comment, but since you mentioned it, I've actually seen an interesting use for selfie sticks: third-person video. I saw a video of someone putting the selfie stick over his shoulder facing forward to where he himself was looking, and creating a third-person video that way; it recorded everything he saw as he walked, but you could also see the back of his head and shoulders himself as he moved forward. I thought that was pretty cool.
When I was single I loved hanging out with groups and basically deferring the decision of who actually try to get with, after I got to know them a bit better.
If the group all want me to end up with the same woman, and they're all wingmanning that one friend, maybe because she's more shy, then it'd be great to hang out with them as a group and see if we're compatible.
If they all individually want to hook up with me, great, let's see them all in a comfortable and fun setting to see who I get along with best.
And even if it turns out I wouldn't want to hook up with any of them, if they're fun people it would be fun to hang out and see what else is going on. It's actually a lot easier to talk to women when you're already surrounded by women. And maybe you could introduce your own friend who would get along better with one or more of them.
I moved to new cities like 7 or 8 times in my teens and 20's (before smartphones, and for the most part before social media at all). Each move was a crash course in getting plugged into a new social circle, so I learned to be pretty quick at making new friends and understanding the personality types and social dynamics that I liked to be around.
At some point I learned to just say "yes" to new social situations, and see how they played out. It didn't always work out for the best, but my openness to new people was generally a good thing to have in my life.
I think the problem for most people is not the "saying yes" part, but the breaking into any social circle at all to begin with.
Groups are generally pretty tight knit and not accepting of outsiders in most environments and after early to mid 20's, even if you are just trying to make friends, unless someone is the 1 in 100 very charismatic people that everyone instantly vibes with like one of my friends is.
I made friends pretty easily before I turned 25 or so, now in order to make friends with other guys (I moved countries), I have to either be into watching sports, cars, or getting blackout drunk.
I think the problem for most people is not the "saying yes" part, but the breaking into any social circle at all to begin with.
That's true. I broke into social circles through several avenues, in rough order of difficulty:
People I met through school or work. Very natural. Taking a bit of a leap from the basic introductory small talk of "what did you do this past weekend" to "what are you doing this next weekend" to talking about those activities and saying "that sounds fun, I'd like to do that sometime too" and then making arrangements outside of school/work.
People I met through casual pickup sports or gym classes or other group activities around social hobbies. Play a few basketball games at a local gym or court and get to know a few other regulars and their names, eventually see who you vibe with and do the same "what did you do last weekend" and jump to an activity you can do together.
Neighbors. There's plenty of reason to talk to people when there's a lot of overlap in space and geography. New neighbors are always looking for recommendations, so when you're the new neighbor a simple note or a greeting can introduce yourself and kick things off, see if you're gonna get along.
People I met through repeated familiarity. The same faces at the dog park, the same faces in line at your neighborhood coffee shop or bar, on your bus/train, etc., builds some kind of familiarity. There's not always a reason to interact, but it can sometimes come up: commentary about the dogs playing with each other, excuse me do you mind if I plug in my laptop next to your seat, oh wow what did you order because that looks cool. It's a low success rate but often a high number of natural opportunities for attempts.
From there, meeting friends of friends can kick start new friendships, too.
And look, I had great success making lots of friends, but had less success with dating through most of my 20's. Things didn't really start clicking for me in the dating scene until I was in my late 20's and genuinely comfortable in my own personality, and whatever confidence I had in myself came through as a kind of authenticity that some women liked in a sexual/romantic partner, not just what people were looking for in friendships.
Excuse me? Whether it's one bill or multiple bills the server has to remember who had what in order to bill them. Most POS system track different people by what seat they are, but that's up to the person punching in the orders to identify.
These women were competing to see which one of them would get a call, so they would have written their number in a way that identifies them so presumably they wrote their numbers on their orders. I think it's really weird to assume it was all one bill though. When I hang out with people the bills are generally divided unless someone asks for a single bill, perhaps it's different where you are but thats very much NOT my experience that is like a grocery bill with just line items and no separators. Again thats very much NOT how POS systems generally work.
I know a lot of people who work in kitchens and so ive heard a lot of complaints about how dumb ass servers can't remember who anyone at their table is and have to constantly reprint bills because they keep fucking up who has what. That's a really common complaint when my friends are talking about the quality of the other people they work with. This is from again multiple people who have worked in restaurants for years both in front of house and back of house.
If we are talking fine dining the servers are often expected to be VERY good at remembering details about the tables they are serving. The quality at Michelin star restaurants is often even more rediculous as to how much they can tell you about the table they just served, depending on style of business. I was briefly in a little nothing band and our drummer was a server at such a place. They were absolutely brutal with the servers and sent home multiple people each service for things as stupid as their shirt was not perfectly tucked in for more than 10 minutes before getting fixed. The way he described it there were 3 or 4 extra people just waiting for someone to be sent home every service. But I'm not expecting that level of attention to detail when I said decent server. I'm actually using a fairly low bar of basic competency, but not some fast food cashier
I also have worked with a person for the last 8 years that does mystery shopper and sometimes has to judge exactly what a server does. Associating who ate what and who ordered what is entirely expected. It's common for one person to order for another and it surprised me to learn that that's not even something most decent servers are expected to have any problems with. Pretty routine and he doesn't fail people too often for it, assuming he's not bullshiting me, which I'll admit is a possibility with him but I don't think that's whats happening
I really don't understand what your problem is with my comment, It wasn't meant to be argumentative.
Extrapolating I did make some biased assumptions sure but there weren't a lot of details in the post so I kept it pretty loose. I presumed they were all flirting with the server so that would make it more memorable for them. The fact that every one of the guests wrote their phone number at that time also would increase memorability of that particular table.
Good servers remember faces, how the fuck is that a surprise to you?
But they don't have to remember the fucking faces, there is a difference between remembering the table number/seat number and the fricking face of everyone and idk about you, but i forget about people faces like the minute after i don't have to interact to them anymore if they are strangers,
Can't blame a guy for taking a shot. What's the worst that could happen? They all get disgusted and blow him off? He's no worse off than he was.
But then later that night, the one who is the secret super freak, excited that the guy actually proposed a 4 way, calls him for a mind-blowing booty call.
If you're so attractive that all four women at a table would hit on you, and you're the kind of person who would contact them afterwards, then you're probably used to having a lot of easy sex, anyways.
It wouldn't surprise me if he really just expected this would likely end in him having a multiple-partner experience, maybe even up to him with all four women.
Edit: Holy shit. Lots of people downvoting the obvious truth. That's a pathetic abuse of downvote, and a pathetic admission of your own deficiencies. Also, please note that I block people who abuse downvotes as a matter of course.
True as that is, you actually have to show off that humor to get numbers. This guy just did what he regularly does at his job. I actually feel bad for him because he probably deserved a better tip instead of 4 phone numbers.
Lets also not forget that this may have been considered quite creepy if the genders were reversed and the server did nothing beyond serving to imply interest.
No i assume they did, but i could also see someone thinking "I'll just tip 10% cause my number is easily worth another 5%, if he wants to complain thats a good reason to text me."
Yeah, the reason I'm downvoting you is totally because I don't casually pick up fivesomes without even trying, and that apparently makes me deficient somehow.
I don't block people who disagree. I block people who abuse downvotes. Downvote does not mean "disagree," and if you use it like that, then you are abusing downvotes. Perhaps you are unaware, but comment downvotes, like all of the content data on the fediverse, are public information.
People who disagree and express it via their comments without downvoting are fine normal humans whose comments at least have the chance of adding value to the world.
People who downvote a simple truth because they don't like it, or who downvote to meme, are people who add no value to the world, and so blocking them only increases the signal-to-noise ratio. I strongly encourage everybody to look up the people who downvoted that comment and block them all.
Perhaps you are unaware, but comment downvotes, like all of the content data on the fediverse, are public information.
What a fucking crybaby. There, that's public information too.
People who downvote a simple truth because they don't like it, or who downvote to meme, are people who add no value to the world,
People who complain about getting downvoted and announce that they block anyone who downvotes them and encourage others to do the same add no value to the world.
They do though. Lemmy would be much better if people wouldn't downvote when they disagree. They are signaling that they don't want to know about inconvenient opinions. That silences open and honest conversations.
The general sentiment (don't downvote just because you disagree) is correct, but the context of it is a bit different.
The comment heavily implies ("... simple truth...") that their statement is reasonable and correct. But in reality, their statement is whackadoo nonsense and downvoting that kind of thing is completely reasonable.
No, the people who frequent communities tend to upvote/downvote more. On the collective level that results in the stuff people in that community want to see drifting to the top, and the stuff they don't want to see drifting to the bottom. That filters out a lot of bullshit and makes the user experience better.
It's not like algorithms are being manipulated to promote a profit motive or political agenda, or amplify an in-group while marginalizing out-groups, the way corporate social media does.
It's just an organic filtering based on what the community members as a collective do or don't want to see.
If you don't like the vibe of one community, go find a different one or start your own. Telling people to stop downvoting you is just petulant.
You're looking for the worst possible interpretation in what's a positive interaction and you complain about downvotes?
Could you be right? Sure. Does it matter? Not really, this is some lightheartes entertainment on the Fediverse. So don't get your knickers in a twist over some downvotes.
Your first paragraph is not unreasonable. Your second one is kinda crazy. Let me be the one to break it to you that conventional 'hotness' is not positively correlated with having group sex.
The incel part is taking a fun, flirty interaction and making it completely porn brained. I don’t know any group of women who would go out and try to gang bang a server, lmao.

True as that is, you actually have to show off that humor to get numbers. This guy just did what he regularly does at his job. I actually feel bad for him because he probably deserved a better tip instead of 4 phone numbers.
Lets also not forget that this may have been considered quite creepy if the genders were reversed and the server did nothing beyond serving to imply interest.

You're assuming they didn't tip him.
Glytch@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 36d
Seriously, why would someone leave their phone number and then not tip well? That'd just set yourself up for failure.
FireRetardant@lemmy.world · -5 pts · 36d
No i assume they did, but i could also see someone thinking "I'll just tip 10% cause my number is easily worth another 5%, if he wants to complain thats a good reason to text me."

You’re literally making up a reason to be mad at them though.

As a woman that’s been in those situations, those dudes never tip and they don’t just leave s number. They harass.

The only comment I've ever faved is you explaining scissoring to some German guy.

Downvoting because I think your comment is projecting your insecurities onto everyone else here.

I'm not taking character assessments from somebody who complains about downvotes lmao
explodicle@sh.itjust.works · 12 pts · 36d
I had you up voted and switched to down vote just to make you angry. :-P
wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz · 8 pts · 36d
Yeah, the reason I'm downvoting you is totally because I don't casually pick up fivesomes without even trying, and that apparently makes me deficient somehow.
Go ahead and block me, I don't give a fuck.

I mean, sure, it's an "obvious truth" to you when you block the 4/5ths of people who disagree.
BillyClark@piefed.social · -14 pts · 36d
I don't block people who disagree. I block people who abuse downvotes. Downvote does not mean "disagree," and if you use it like that, then you are abusing downvotes. Perhaps you are unaware, but comment downvotes, like all of the content data on the fediverse, are public information.
People who disagree and express it via their comments without downvoting are fine normal humans whose comments at least have the chance of adding value to the world.
People who downvote a simple truth because they don't like it, or who downvote to meme, are people who add no value to the world, and so blocking them only increases the signal-to-noise ratio. I strongly encourage everybody to look up the people who downvoted that comment and block them all.
wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz · 7 pts · 36d
What a fucking crybaby. There, that's public information too.
People who complain about getting downvoted and announce that they block anyone who downvotes them and encourage others to do the same add no value to the world.
No one fucking cares!

They do though. Lemmy would be much better if people wouldn't downvote when they disagree. They are signaling that they don't want to know about inconvenient opinions. That silences open and honest conversations.
nwtreeoctopus@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 35d
The general sentiment (don't downvote just because you disagree) is correct, but the context of it is a bit different.
The comment heavily implies ("... simple truth...") that their statement is reasonable and correct. But in reality, their statement is whackadoo nonsense and downvoting that kind of thing is completely reasonable.
wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz · 3 pts · 35d
Not really. Lemmy would be much better if people stopped complaining about getting downvoted though.
plyth@feddit.org · 0 pts · 35d
How do you figure? No complaining would be nice, but wouldn't lemmy fully drift into a self-inflicted filter bubble?
wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz · 3 pts · 35d
No, the people who frequent communities tend to upvote/downvote more. On the collective level that results in the stuff people in that community want to see drifting to the top, and the stuff they don't want to see drifting to the bottom. That filters out a lot of bullshit and makes the user experience better.
It's not like algorithms are being manipulated to promote a profit motive or political agenda, or amplify an in-group while marginalizing out-groups, the way corporate social media does.
It's just an organic filtering based on what the community members as a collective do or don't want to see.
If you don't like the vibe of one community, go find a different one or start your own. Telling people to stop downvoting you is just petulant.

You're looking for the worst possible interpretation in what's a positive interaction and you complain about downvotes? Could you be right? Sure. Does it matter? Not really, this is some lightheartes entertainment on the Fediverse. So don't get your knickers in a twist over some downvotes.

Your first paragraph is not unreasonable. Your second one is kinda crazy. Let me be the one to break it to you that conventional 'hotness' is not positively correlated with having group sex.
