Are you really going to call me a terrorist just because I want to shoot some neutrons at a cluster of enriched uranium in a populated area? Seriously?

[-] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I saw a guy doing moral outrage that men sometimes goon it crazy style in public.

It's pixels. It's thousands of pixels arranged on a screen that make your imagination see a real person.

When people act like it's indecent I'm always like, "oh no the witch pixels have formed the horny configuration"

Just taking the piss btw, read what you want in public it's a damn book. Stores still sell brown paper bags to use as covers, right?

Next let's compare dropping bombs to reading about the war.

[-] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Let's contrast instead!

"Goon it crazy style" was just to be funny. What's the actual difference in watching porn in public and smut novels if you're not jorkin it and nobody sees the screen?

[-] ekky@sopuli.xyz 0 points 2 months ago

Your own example would be more akin to watching a documentary vs reading about it. No one actually dies by you doing so.

[-] Wren@lemmy.today 0 points 2 months ago

That's not like any of the examples. Someone is equating reading smutty romance to public masturbation.

I honestly didn't see this going in this direction, I'm pretty fascinated by the reaction here.

[-] ekky@sopuli.xyz 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The only "someone" I've seen talking about public masturbation is you. :/ The "Goon it crazy" was clearly a hyperbole, given this posts' context.

And I'm not too surprised about the reaction. While the OP (from Bluesky, not you) definitely made a brand new sentence, the take is not particularly bright.

[-] Wren@lemmy.today 0 points 2 months ago

The “Goon it crazy” was clearly a hyperbole

So ...so was the sentence?

Did someone take a lighthearted meme community too seriously?

[-] ekky@sopuli.xyz 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The OPs' sentence? Yes clearly.

Yours? I'm not entirely convinced. Or at least it's not only a hyperbole, given your other comments in this thread.

"Goon crazy style" is slang for watching porn. It also happens to be a hyperbole, since watching porn clearly isn't as bad as jerking yourself to a medical condition.

What should the non-hyperbolic version of "let’s compare dropping bombs to reading about the war." (assuming that's the sentence) have been?

To me it appears that you tried making a comparison of VerilyFemme's comment under a wrong assumption (eg. that it was about public masturbation), and now are trying to cover it up by calling it a hyperbole.

Anyway, as you stated I'm here to laugh, and not to write reports about misunderstandings taken to the next level.

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz -1 points 2 months ago

Gooning always meant masturbating to me.

[-] Wren@lemmy.today -1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I polled my friends and family. We all agree gooning it is slang for jerking it, even my mom said so.

[-] swab148@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

When my grandma died, she had like a hundred of those books stashed around the house. Also, vodka in Maalox bottles. It was the first time I found out that grandmas can be freaks too lol

[-] ramble81@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

She reads romance novels, someone else look at porn. My thought has always been “you prefer words, they prefer pictures, but fundamentally it’s no different”

[-] erotador@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago

any decent witch should know that intent is just as important as the method of casting the spell

[-] endless_nameless@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Porn is just pixels so you should have no problem with me watching on the subway with my laptop chuddy

[-] Zozano@aussie.zone 1 points 2 months ago

Masturbating in public is just vibrating atoms moving together, like everything else. If you dont like watching me crank my hog to Sonic hentai, then maybe you dont respect physics.

[-] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

People in here comparing looking at porn images in public as if it's comparable to a smutty book. I dunno, man. It would take effort to read someone else's book in order to know what it's even saying. But pulling up a pornographic image doesn't take any work to comprehend. One requires hovering over someone's shoulder, getting in their space, and actively trying to figure out what they're reading. The other requires no more than a glance around.

As far as being appropriate in public, they really can't be compared.

[-] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Some of those book covers, though.

[-] underscores@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

you can read whatever you want and I'm not going to judge you but personally my frame of mind when horny is not something I want to experience in public

with this in mind, by extension I understand the viewpoint of "people should not have that frame of mind in public"

that being said I'm not gonna police anyone, and I also don't care if you're rock hard or gooping down there cause of something you're reading. I would just prefer not to be

[-] Gonzako@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

That's fair. I've personally done some outside play and you do have to be very careful with it. The thrill of possibly getting caught is fun, getting caught ain't.

[-] BananaOnionJuice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago

The cover shows a man embracing a woman!

steamy
