Sounds like a load of fun.

I sure like wasting my time with someone who I know would dislike something essential about me.

But hey, you go sis, stick it to the man.

Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 16 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's not wasted time if you get a free meal out of it.

^ the for-profit prison system

I'm just going to drop this link right here... (Some states charge inmates room and board)

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Thanks for the link. That’s definitely true and my comment was moreso just a criticism of the prison system in general.

I’ve also archived that NPR article here because there’s certainly a possibility that “woke” (read: truthful) NPR content could start disappearing if they get defunded or otherwise targeted

No worries! Prison and jail are well worth criticizing. They charge you for anything they can get away with.

a load

Bit more than that if we’re going off my body count 💅

If I were her I’d make sure to tell him in a very public place, and only if he didn’t know where I lived or worked.

how to randomly end up strangled

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

A decade ago, my friend went on a tinder date with a guy who said he worked in "protection services". After the third date, he admitted that he's actually a cop, which she was on the fence about. He begged her to stay.

Then after three months of dating, she broke up with him, deleted her social media, lived with her parents a few states away, and cut off all contact with everyone who known her.

Only about a year ago did she finally reconnect with her social group.

So yeah, that gut check is important.

[–] RymrgandsDaughter@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

Not surprised she did all of that you basically can't break up with a cop

That's a lot of manky sex to put up with just for a joke

[–] don@lemm.ee 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Imagine putting up with a conservative man for months, just to try to prank him about the number of sexual partners you’ve had. That says volumes more about the mental state of the pranker than the unfortunate life choice of the prankee.

[–] taxiiiii@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

It's a joke man.

[–] werewolfborg@ttrpg.network 9 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Kind of a dangerous move even if he’s not violent or abusive. The conservative “jokes” will rub off on her just like it’s done to girls I know.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago

This is definitely the funniest argument against this idea in the thread.

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

In my experience growing up in the South...a lot of conservative women have a ridiculously high body count that they hide once they settle down.

So this scenario happens a lot.

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

Geeze people, it's a meme
