Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

Nobody likes Bryan Johnsonās breakfast at the Network School
I did not expect to be tricked into reading about the nighttime erections of the man with the most severe midlife crisis in the world.
According to Wikipedia this guy is 47. Sorry about your hair as a teenager I guess? I hope the early graying didnāt lead to any long term self-esteem issues.
Alternatively, he only had 5 gray hairs to begin with I guess? Iām more concerned about the fact that heās apparently taking time to set a timer whenever he gets hard at night. I donāt want to yuck anyoneās yum, but Iām pretty sure youāre doing it wrong if youāre taking time out of the experience to collect those metrics.
If he collects enough metrics, he could make a horrendously cursed blogpost out of it like Aella
When I was adjusting to a high fiber diet for medical reasons I couldnāt figure out why I was so incredibly hungry despite eating enough.
Then I realized āhuh, I havenāt had any fat at all for the past weekā and went and made myself four slices of buttery toast and they were so tasty.
Yeah, this is a very normal diet thatās advertising itself in very normal ways.
Iām trying to imagine the kind of wacky gross VR body tracking setup youād need to measure that metric while asleep and all Iām coming up with is mutilated Powerglove
thatās because youāre discounting
quantified dating, and the scorecard he gives partners to fill outwhat is the utility of 179 minutes of night-time erections
as a warning to others
my first thought reading this was that you meant it could be a deterrent to burglars. then I imagined a pair of increasingly nervous burglars timing his erections and freaking out as it hit 179 minutes. āwe gotta bail man, thatās longer than the average 18 year oldā
I want a menu!
What do you think is the venn diagram of āpeople who go to The Network Schoolā and āmen who believe in the meat-only dietā? I imagine thereās a lot of crossover

Now if it was Brian Johnson from AC/DC, I bet itād be awesome.
