Hell, I wouldn't tell it here as well. It's going to the grave with me.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But maybe you could explain the secret of your username? Is it unicode for the chinese word "乏" which means poor/tired? Is it some magic number or boot signature? I need to know!!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No.

It's just NO in hex... sorry the mystery isn't deeper.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh right... I went into full conspiracy mode when it should have been pretty obvious. (Or maybe you just want us to believe that...)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe... but I guess you'll never know.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm... if you convert each byte to little endian floating point, you'll get a latitude/longitude of 1.09301/1.10702. And those coordinates lead to a point right in the north atlantic ocean. Is this where you hid the body?! gestures wildly

Same. Nothing super earth shattering, but sometimes it's good to let sleeping dogs lay asleep.

You farted on a babies face and made it cry, didn't you?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

To be fair, the baby would've cried even if they didn't do that.

Unfortunelately I will not tell that to strangers on the internet either

Nothing to see here, NSA

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

Ha, I'm not falling for this one a third time.

I killed a circus clown in a Wendy's parking lot in 1996.

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

Do I just upvote this post if my answer is the same?

Asking for a friend.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I generally disagree with murder, but I'm terrified of clowns, so I'm super conflicted about this.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That is quite specific

I’m certain that I am some degree of polyamorous. But I’m in a 10-year monogamous relationship and feel like I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Might not be to late me and my wife of 12 years are starting talks of this.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you don’t mind, how did you two even start that conversation? I’m afraid to bring it up because I know the knee-jerk reaction will probably be a lot of hurt feelings and misunderstandings

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

She brought it up first. Key thing is being open and honest and setting clear boundaries that both people need to follow. Trust is the biggest thing to keeping things good.

Not never, but at least for a few years (hopefully not my entire life): I'm transgender. 😞

To whoever downvoted this, I hope you have a five day bout of constipation.

After I jerk off, I sometimes admire my junk in the mirror.

I'm terrified of heights. No one knows. I'm great at faking it.

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

Why don't you tell people?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

When I was a kid, when you told your fears, it was greeted with responses like, "that's silly, you'll get over it. Now get up that ladder and paint that wall. "

My password manager password and anything about my life

When I was about 11 I found roadkill, put it in a mailbox close to my home, watched from the window, and laughed when the mailman screamed.

Nice try, Jared!

(He's my SIS agent)

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

Oh so we're going to try and carry on the tradition of fishing for people's dark secrets on here now too? Lame.

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

I won't tell anyone about that fart I shouldn't have trusted

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

I like to breathe air.
