I've always wanted to talk about how weird it was scrolling through reddit and then suddenly seeing myself on the front page. I was banned from reddit for talking about politics (I am anti trump) on the air force reddit so I wasn't even able to comment on a post about me.

For some backstory, I was returning from a Halloween cruise and it was the only clean shirt I had left (I was planning on wearing it during the cruise as there were no children allowed on the cruise and with the theme I thought it would get a few laughs or at least start a conversation). I never did though and doing laundry on a cruise was quite expensive (I think 50 dollars per load or something like that). I tried to hide the shirt as best I could throughout the day as I do think it was slightly inappropriate to wear in a public setting.

For the record, I love all the comments roasting me and I laughed all fucking day reading them!

Anyways, I have always wanted to publicly talk about this and in my search for reddit alternatives I found lemmy so here we are. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Were you banned from the AF subreddit or from reddit completely? If so I don't see how complaining about trump would get you banned from reddit.

Anyway, did you find those big tiddies?

SPOILER: It’s the sleeping dude.

Just kidding!! Welcome to Lemmy.

Haven’t read all the comments here but I hope some are of welcome. This is a safe space for lovers of goth tiddies.

804 upvotes is epic in this land so all I can say is there’s your welcome.

I feel dirty any time I lose my spine and peek back at a favorite Reddit sub or two. It’s so gross now.

I’m still figuring this place out myself.

It’s a journey. Again: welcome.

I drew a comic of myself once that got turned into a meme. So I totally get how surreal it is to be scrolling through the front page of reddit and unexpectedly seeing a picture of yourself. Although mine was certainly under more pleasant circumstances.

In any case you seem to have a positive outlook on the whole thing, which is great.

The only sad thing about this post is that big tiddy goth girls won't know to find you on lemmy. Redditor failed at marketing.

This is funny! Own it.

Peak airport energy: minding your business, reading a book, accidentally becoming internet famous 😅

Damn, you look like you lost weight!

Good job! (Either of the weight loss, camera skills or possibly both!)

[–] DominicG@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

Thanks! It's probably a mixture of the original photo not being very flattering (Me crouched over reading a book after sitting in the air port for over 6 hours) and camera skills/working out and eating right. This was also just after a cruise where I ate my body weight in food and did little exercise lol.

Looks like the other guy in the photo is also thinking about big tiddies.

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

I don’t think that’s a dude, dude.

[–] lorski@sopuli.xyz 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They did not take a photo of you, they took a photo of that t-shirt. LOL

[–] bytesonbike@discuss.online 7 points 3 months ago

Au contraire! All I see is a beautiful mustache.

[–] BedSharkPal@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But like, how was the cruise?

[–] DominicG@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Halloween themed cruise with no kids is fucking fantastic.

[–] irelephant@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

It's a small world.

You da man. Reddit was taken over by right wing nuts, they are banning people who are anti- Trump.
