I'm beginning to wonder if all the onlyfans relationships stories are actually part of some bizarre advertising campaign. You don't get "My boyfriend keeps browsing pornhub dot com" you get "my (22f) bf (33m) won't stop looking at porn". There are other can sites. Why only onlyfans mentioned by name.

Cough Drop The Beat posted:Haha, yup. Always fun when dudes hookup with a lady they're into half a dozen times and then aren't decent enough to text "You're a cool person but I'm just not feeling it right now" after moving on. So many men are worthless cowards scared of their own shadows. Just because you hosed someone doesn't mean that they suddenly are entitled to your emotional labor. Ghosting is a perfectly viable option when you don't want to deal with the other person anymore. That applies regardless of the genders involved too. Hth.

I wouldn’t put this past them and reddit is price ground for guerrilla marketing, but there probably also an aspect that places like onlyfans exist as not just pornography but a form of parasocial relationship which is very different from “normal” porn. Also inherently more expensive.

Help? Every couple of years I end up with one of my mom's old laptops because she's broken it somehow. The last one was was when she stepped on it and killed half the screen, the time before that was when she would lower it from her bed to the floor using the power cable and killed the power connection over time, etc. (I usually end up either fixing them, tossing them, or working around the problem like the broken screen that just because a skype laptop for my old podcast.) She just buys a new cheap one when it happens and gets a few years out of it. I am so, so grateful that when I explained "If you don't know what it is don't install it" and "if you're not sure ask me first, I'm happy to help" she took it to heart so I only have to deal with occasional stuff like her printer refusing to work or why the power cord is not a structural element and not having to explain what ransomware is. 8one6 fucked around with this message at 10:00 on May 12, 2020 |

Weird situation. GF [23F] is upset with me [23M] for playing with a cursed video game controller.quote:I really don't know where to begin here. My girlfriend and I both live with her parents in order to save money and pay off our student loans faster, but we both work and I think we do the whole adulting thing pretty well. My girlfriend is NOT a superstitious person. She does not believe in ghosts or anything paranormal and is a highly rational person about everything except this. There's no update, so I can only assume OP was killed in a car crash

“I’m ready to drop this,” I exclaim as I continue this. “We can be done now that I’ve gotten the last word.” “Also, it’s important to know that I am not being pretentious,” I lol pretentiously as I say more pretentious things.

Help? I know OP is not that kind of IT, but they could have invested in an automated backup setup for mom. In that sense, her flat tire analogy has a lot of merit. You should expect to have to pull from backups when you're breaking the machine that often.

My dad has hosed the windows install on his laptop twice trying to get something working for some stupid reason. I gave in and installed Ubuntu to add another barrier to him doing the IT equivalent of setting fire to a bowl of Cheerios. My mother just downloads those lovely free games from the play store and clicks ads that subscribe her to bullshit, then costs like €10 to unsubscribe. Both still scream for help if any tv issues pop up, despite a combined 80 years of couch sitting experience. loving learned helplessness. Old people were a mistake.

I felt bad for the person who gave their mom the seashells. That's such a brutal reaction, then to double down with the fishing for sympathy apology is disgusting. Waffle house fight guy owns. I hope he sees it for the comedy it is and it isn't serious. The egg in the hole is a great joke.

Actually for my job I investigate and dispute card transactions people claim are fraudulent. And since covid started there's been a huge uptick in people getting onlyfans and other porn site charges so it all checks out. I honestly can't think of one I've seen that actually WAS fraud though. Everyone just wants their porn for free.

Onlyfans takes only like 20% of the performer's revenue, so it's becoming increasingly popular among porn stars, racy Instagram models, camgirls, etc, because they make so much more cash compared to a commercial porn company or camgirl site taking the vast, vast majority of their potential earnings, which has filtered into porn addicts following their favorite ladies much more easily on Onlyfans when they've stopped slowly producing for Pornhub and other porn streaming platforms. Coronavirus has further accelerated this inevitability because the commercial porn houses are shut down and will be for months, plus every performer is stuck at home and bored like the rest of us are.

Ghosting is a perfectly viable option when you don't want to deal with the other person anymore. I dunno, ghosting is perfectly viable for a friend selling MLM, a cousin you don't like or a job offer you're not interested in. Typically for most people sex is a pretty intimate act, perhaps deserving of a little explanation as to why you're not interested anymore.

Help? Kinda think this guy is a lovely IT dude, tbh. The buried lede from a tech standpoint is "her desktop disappeared after a windows update I told her not to do". This means it was a pirated copy of windows. That is the first thing that happens when a certain update clues in Windows that it's not authenticated: the desktop goes blank. Only a idiot would set up a person they know to be Bad At Computers with pirated solutions that require special attention. It's asking for trouble and significantly increases the chance something will go wrong. If you know what you're doing then use the pirate stuff yourself if you want, but installing it for others is setting up for failure.
