I dunno, I more often see this phrase combined with masturbation to porn the user cannot believe they masturbated to afterward. There is a sense of clarity following ejaculation, but it doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with a sexual partner or their perceived attractiveness.

Edit: I’m a little sad that people are downvoting you. To be clear, I think your explanation is just as valid as mine. Just because my experience with the phrase is different doesn’t mean your explanation didn’t add to the conversation, and I liked reading it.

I disagree with your takes sometimes (although not since I switched to PieFed), but you always have an argument and I’ve never seen you have one I couldn’t see any merit in. As good as it gets, imo.

When the internet was better, sometimes people just made entertaining things for no particular reason.

This may be the first time I haven’t fallen into the subset of “everybody.”

Everything I want to play runs using Linux/proton. It seems like the only things that have trouble are things I’d never consider even installing, let alone running.

Every time I think it can’t get more embarrassing, they find an even more cringey way to act.

Well, she did awesome, so fuck those people.

My understanding is that humor is a very common coping mechanism — in the face of an abuse of power this absurd, I imagine it’s sometimes all someone has the strength for.
