    But how should I do that? Should I use a titsling, or a brassiere?

    I have recommendations but this is a 13+ forum....

    I had been reading that as Tits Ling (like, perhaps a small bird) instead of tit sling and I have no idea why.

    I think that's actually by design.

    Like, as a name there's no true way to pronounce it, but tits-ling feels more in line with how names normally go, so you pronounce it that way in your head at the start of the poem. But by the end, you have the realization that it was actually tit-sling all along, because that's what makes the joke work.

    A tits-ling sounds like the M rated version of a zergling.

    You're asking me to do a lot of calming here, I might need some time.

    Hey love thread, I don't have a real place to put this, so I'm putting it here.

    I think, due to a combination of bad circulation and a very drafty apartment, I might have managed to somehow catch an extremely minor case of frostbite over the past couple of freezing Chicago days, despite never actually going outside during them.

    I do not know how this is even possible, but at the end of the night last night my feet were hurting a bunch, and I noticed that my toes were very red when I took my socks off. They had been cold all day, but that's normal - I live on the first floor of a hundred year old building, so it's just kind of always cold in the winter. Plus I've got very long legs, so the blood ain't so good at getting all the way down there. I live a life of cold feet, no matter the season.

    But this morning they were too swollen to put on my boots without it being painful, and it feels like they've got more blisters than usual, and they've been getting itchier all day.

    All of which lines up with frostbite. Not a bad case, not the sort to do serious damage or anything, but what the hell?

    wear thicker socks, I guess!

    my dad has similar issues with his feet and that was his solution. His was more diabetes related, though.

    He got these fancy socks that are like, thick, but smooth and soft, but also they're put together in such a way that they provide a little bit of moving pressure around the arch of your foot. These would make you both more comfortable, and have warmer feet!

    since we're talking about foot stuff, I woke up yesterday and the big toe on my left foot hurt like I banged it on something, but I mean, I was sleeping so I didn't.

    it hurts today too. It's weird it kinda feels like I need to crack it like a knuckle, but I can't get it to do it

    Yeah, I should probably have some thick socks for when I'm just hanging out around the house. I wear dress socks all the time, which aren't very useful for any sort of protection.

    What accent do you have, Munkus? I legitimately want to know how these sound.

    Southern US. When I say "one" it sounds like wun with a heavy emphasis on the u.

    Do you say Taiwan with more of a "waah" sound?

    Yeah, most American accents would say it somewhere around TIE-wahn

    I do not think I’ve ever heard anyone put the emphasis on the first syllable, that is fascinating.

    I have got about 5 days to get my apartment fully cleaned. I did 75% of the work already, I just need to toss some cardboard boxes and I keep missing the trash trucks.

    It’s Lunar New Year. I have no work. It’s getting done this week and then I’ll be ready for whatever comes.

    We’re supposed to watch Wonder Woman this month, that might be at my place, so.

    Real post, last weekend I brought the card game “Love Letter”, which a very simple, ingenious little game. We didn’t play it at all but I showed it to Sherry and explained how it worked, and she joked “Where’s my love letter!?” And I’m like You don’t realize it but you have sealed your fate.

    So I went and bought a nice “Happy Lunar New Year” card, because ‘tis the season. Most of these cards have a very intricately designed cut-out front with a loose inner card on high quality paper. The outer card featured two fish swimming together, which is a reference to “abundance” in the new year, as the Mandarin word for “fish” is phonetically (but not tonally) identical for the word for “abundance” (most Lunar New Year meals feature a fish dish for this reason, and it is similarly tradition to leave a fair amount of fish meat on the plate). As the front of the card featured a great deal of cutting to show the inner card, I drew two fish on the cover of the inner card in a somewhat-heart-shaped configuration putting those fishy lips together in an about-to-smooch configuration. I haven’t drawn anything in a while and I think it looked rather nice.

    Then I wrote her a little love letter, thanking her for this month and wishing her a good new year with her family. I also wrote her a little couplet poem, in true love letter fashion.

    It was a ton of fun and she really loved it, and was very surprised, and we got super makey-outy at the little cocktail bar we went to and yesterday was great.

    She’s in town with her friend today, I asked if she had some spare time to text me so we can see each other again before she goes south to Jia-Yi on Monday. If not, i won’t see her till the end of the week.

    Boy, so I haven't really been too focused on dating or relationships over the last few years, but over the last couple months that feeling of "wouldn't it be nice to find someone to settle down with?" has kind of been on my mind more than usual. And last night I had a super vivid dream involving a girl I used to be really close to, never romantically involved but always seemed like a good match, but then I moved out of state and we lost touch. And the dream was us running into each other again out of nowhere and reconnecting and telling each other how we felt and all this, and about halfway through I realized it was a dream and used the rest of the time before I woke up to just enjoy it but also getting sad knowing it was going to end soon.

    And man, what a huge bummer of an experience that was! I'm fine now but jeez, lighten up brain...

    Today I got woken up by a phone call from my mum telling me that I had to come to the cemetery, because it would’ve been my grandma’s 100th birthday today so we all had to discordantly sing O Danny Boy at her headstone

    I went home and was helping my housemate clean our freezer. I was just about to talk to her about the things I may or may not have been misinterpreting, but then a can of frozen lemonade exploded in her face

    What even is my life

    Having a week with a lot of old friends and I got a super weird bomb got dropped on me.

    Ends up that not only was I being cheated on in my most serious relationship. I was literally in the room for it. Watching The Illusionist.

    Which would be one thing as it is was nearly a decade ago. But it’s painted my feelings on our break up starting with an argument on the relative quality of The Prestige in an entirely new light.

    Sometimes, I am gross.

    Sometimes I do things or think things that I later regret, or realize were shitty, or the lizard part of my brain reacts to something and I feel disgusted with myself.

    What I do not do is construct a narrative where by I attempt to justify that grossness or actively seek to make it a permanent fixture of my life and/or persona.

    I do my best to judge others but if you like a thing I find gross and make it a big part of who you are, I’m gonna struggle pretty hard not to feel grossed out whenever that thing comes up.

    I mean even if every single guy on here thought it was fine (which I don't and doubt most people here would) there's no reason for you to think you're weird for disagreeing. Dudes of all ages and persuasions have awful opinions about all kinds of stuff.
