"Fellas, is it gay to use a straw?"

Fragile snowflake weirdos more obsessed with dicks than I am, and I'm gay as fuck.

It is important to keep stressing the "weirdo" line. It's super effective.

Calling a reactionary a weirdo got me banned in one of the political communities recently. Mod called it attacking language

That mod is a weirdo

Name and shame. The top of every sub should include a breakdown of the mods and their moderation stats. The way it's currently designed enables propaganda and misinformation as much as Reddit ever did.

the comment that was removed that got me banned for questioning the mod

I like to suck on straws with milkshakes so hard, that my cheeks implode.

Like a reverse Louis Armstrong.

Only if you suck until the creamy goodness reaches your lips.

Are you using staws in your vanilla ice cream shakes tho?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

That's a good point. You may be attracted to men and enjoy having sex with them... but Fox News only says you're gay if you use a straw for a fast food drink.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Depends if the straw was made from fossilized unicorns or not.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

I don’t care for dicks, but I do love to suck

[–] danc4498 5 points 2 months ago

Any time you close your mouth over something and suck, you a gay man! That’s why real men don’t own Stanley’s!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm gay as fuck.

How much straws do you use?

[–] NegativeInf 3 points 2 months ago

None. I deep throat all bottles and cups and then pass all remaining plastic through my superior digestive tract like a real man. /s

Amazing. I wish they had contacted you to speak at the DNC! Or the RNC, for that matter...
