You may not like it, but this is what peak male form looks like

Rule 34 LGBT+ Edition says there's an entire genre of these guys in gay porn. Source: *flashes iridescent gay membership card*

Fake. The guy is holding the phone to his ear instead of yelling at it on speaker phone.

[–] nieminen 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

For real, one of my least favorite in recent trends. Nobody wants to hear your whole freaking conversation.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I do! It's like a lemmy comment thread IRL. I can give my opinion to complete strangers, completely unasked for, and free of charge.

Hey @nieminen I like your socks

Making a phone call??? What is this?

[–] Shardikprime 42 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Bros calling the cops on them because of the earshot sexual harassment

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

At least faking a call so they leave him alone.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You can listen to voice messages like this too you know?

[–] someguy3 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Lies, that has to be on speakerphone.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I don't always want people around me to listen to spicy voice mails from my SO.

Expedient texting. Or hanging out, but over distance.

Riddle me this, call not-likers: what is the difference between calling your friend, over the phone, and calling them on your teamspeak of choice (or whatever is popular these days).

Is it the impromptu nature of it? Just don't answer when it's not convenient then, it's not the 90s, they can follow up with a text if you can't pick up.

Is it the talking to people in general? Then I fail to see why calls are the issue.

This is assuming you know the personal calling, via callerID.

Is it you feel more rushed and flustered because you can't see each other, and thus can't pick up on visual cues?

All in all, thoroughly confused why people have an aversion to calls, I think they're rather expedient and useful. Depending on what's called for. (I feel this way in both work and social contexts).

I'm gonna stay in relatively decent shape, shave my head and take my future kids trick or treating as Agent 47.

Best part is it won't matter what I wear I just need a barcode on my head.

You don't know where he's going.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

To Real, obviously.

To really emphasize this misuse of too and loose the point of the statement.

[–] stupidcasey 11 points 1 month ago

All this DAD bod means is a woman wanted me to be her daddy.

Bald guy still hot

[–] FlexibleToast 3 points 1 month ago

Is that the Freakin Reviews guy?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Guys with long hair are hot, i'm not dating a man that looks like andrew fucking tate

[–] billwashere 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I feel like I’m somewhere in the middle of these two.

[–] nieminen 6 points 1 month ago

You're two chicks?
