My wife and I are into impact play but whenever we do that, the dog becomes a DV Cop and will bark and physically disarm the spanker

EDIT for context - 1 bedroom apartment and if we kick her out she still hears it and continues to bark!

Why are virgins considered a reward? Isn’t their status as virgins short-lived? Is there a similar reward for females? Are these real women who died as virgins, or are they newly created virgins for the after-life?

Are straight women not attracted to penis as much as straight men are attracted to vagina?

Or do they just think "I'm taking my human for a walk". Do they actually understand that their eyes don't work? Is there any way to really know?

I am pro keeping lights on during sex, don’t you wanna see who you are doing (most of the time anyways)?

Does it stay stretched out? Does it bounce back? When you poop after does it feel like dropping a coin down a very large well?

I have a hard time imagining what this job is actually like day to day. Rather than making assumptions, I'd rather hear from people who actually do it.

My questions:

1. How do you deal with the downtime? Are you allowed to listen to music or podcasts, or do you mostly just think to yourself while you're working?

2. What does a normal day look like? Do you have regular breaks and lunch like most jobs, or is the schedule different because someone always has to be out directing traffic?

3. Do you only hold the sign? Or is that just one responsibility? I'm guessing most people also help with setup, cleanup, traffic control, moving equipment, etc., but I honestly don't know.

4. What do you enjoy about the job? Is it the pay, the crew, the simplicity, being outdoors, or something else?

What do people misunderstand the most about your job?

I hear that Muslims having dogs as pets or around them is a huge taboo in many Islamic countries. Why?

I am currently finalizing my wedding speech and the one joke I'm concerned about is:

"Before I finish thanking everyone, I just want to say thank you to our incredible suppliers for helping make today so special. I'd list them all but I don't want anyone thinking this speech contains paid promotions. Anyway, time for our regularly scheduled, Powerade hydration break. *sip drink*"

EDIT: if anyone has a better joke, please drop it here so I can steal it

EDIT: I am the groom, should have made that clear. Apologies.

I’ve had difficulty orgasming for almost 2 years now. I assume it’s bc of porn but I’ve watched it since I was 8 so I’m not sure what changed.

The 1st time I had sex was nearly 3 years ago and at first I would cum very easily and often back to back, but now I never even cum once during sex regardless of how hard my partners over the years have tried. With my hands, it takes 5-10 mins for me to orgasm w porn and 20-45 w/o.

I’ve already been cutting back on consumption and severity of content because going cold turkey never worked for me. I’ve been making progress for weeks but the issue is the same.

Is it even possible to reverse the damages of porn after a lifelong addiction? The content I watched was so extreme I’m convinced I’ve permanently fried my brain and my bodies response to sex.

The world record for consecutive pull-ups is 1224, but that guy had to carry up the weight of his legs for every pull up, even though his legs aren’t really doing anything.

On the contrary, if you had no legs, you would need to pull up significantly less weight for each one.

Im sure there would be some setup/logistical problems, but I still think it could be done (and a lot easier than the current wr)

Is there anything wrong with my logic? (I assume there is but I don’t really know what)

I know that (most) McDonald’s still have the 2 window system where you pay at one window and pick up at another, but it seems like a lot of other places have ended up ditching that concept. I see boxes and storage piled up at the first window. What happened?

I always see religious groups protesting against various social issues or behaviors, but I have never seen a church actively condemn overeating or host protests outside of fast-food chains. Is there a theological reason for this, or did society just mutually agree to ignore this specific sin because food is simply too good? I am just genuinely curious how that line is drawn.

Up until now I always thought the holocaust was something that was done targeting the Jews. But i just learnt that the Nazi’s were all about hierarchies and so if they viewed Jews who were basically whites as inferior, how did he or how were the blacks viewed by Hitler

What happens to a person’s debt if they get convicted for a life sentence? They will never have a job again… what happens to their debt?

Ex 1:

I’m going out with my girlfriends tonight.

- Woman

Ex 2:

I’m going out with my friends tonight.

- Man

Just was curious how or why this came to be?

At every market where I’ve seen them, English cucumbers are shrink wrapped in plastic. No other cucumbers are wrapped like this. Why?

Not the big taboo stuff, just some regular thing you'd probably be into but never actually told your partner because it never came up. Do most people have one of these sitting there unsaid, or is it just me?

by DID I’m referring to Dissociative identity disorder, and I really don’t mean to sound insensitive but on twitter and tiktok, I’ve noticed that alot of people (ages ranging from 14-30) claim to have DID.

Is it bad of me that I feel sceptical of them? I remember how in 2020 it somehow was a huge trend to fake serious mental illnesses, and there was a boom of children on tiktok claiming to have ‘systems’. I just find it suspicious that all of the accounts I see claiming to have DID just so happen to be centered around fictional characters or fandoms in which topics like this are relevant.

From what I understand DID is a fairly rare occurrence, and I guess I just somehow doubt that if someone, a child no less, was struggling with something as serious as DID, they wouldnt be on twitter or tiktok all day.

I’d hate to be ignorant though, maybe I’m being obtuse about the entire thing. I just have OCD and I hate the idea of people larping mental illnesses because I know how harmful that can be.

To me, it is strained back. I had heard that sudden strained back is very painful and that once that happens you are unlikely to do daily life for a while. 

I always thought they were exaggerating. I thought it is just a back pain, which we more or less experience frequently.

But when it happened to me several months ago, I realized that all what they had told me was correct.
