Daniella Fetish sounds more like a name kink than a pen name.

[–] morrowind@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So uhh, how do you know about these?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

I, uh... I made these.

Finding the original book covers will serve as a questionable Google search in my impending subpoena(s).

I believe the poet Roy Parker Jr said it best, "Bustin' makes me feel good."

And if you've got ghosts--freaky ghosts--he wants you to call.

This is how far the republican / conservative agenda will go .... they want to ban sex in this life ... because they'll know we'll go hog wild in the afterlife

A lot of star trek episodes are on the left, but there’s one episode of TNG which is clearly on the right.

dont believe in them to start with although some spiritedness in partners might be nice once in a while

I'm over in the science section across the store.

Ghosts aren't my thing, but I don't judge.

Unless they're Confederate Civil War ghosts, then I'm going to judge.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What if you, also, are a ghost?

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd sneak into the movies without paying!

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sure, but would you sneak into a car?

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I'd have to think about that one 🤔

While you pontificate, perhaps you could enjoy this classic "IT Crowd" clip.

Why not both?

As a strict monogamist, the only paranormal sex I'm interested in is if my SO turns.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Isn't this viewpoint why "until death do us part" is a thing?

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm cool with my SO not parting after death, provided we can still get the romance on.

I typed a long message, then asked my wife what she thought about the concepts raised.

She informed me that you might be metaphorically pulling my chain.

If you are, well done! I was fooled. Though tricking someone as socially oblivious as I isn't that much of an achievement, I still appreciate the joke.

If you are not, I am happy to discuss the philosophies of committed relationships, but my (very inexpert) main points would be:

  • one should honor all commitments
  • commitments can be ethically renegotiated with the informed consent of all involved parties
  • at the end of the commitment (ie, death in this case), termination or renegotiation is also fair (even if the same commitment is the end result)

edit: corrected an individual word.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I was joking.

That said, I also have a religious belief in life after death, and that includes marriage, though I also believe we need to choose each other again in the next life. I didn't really want to get into that in a random funny post, but there you go.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 1 points 45 minutes ago

My sincere apologies to you creating a situation that might have pressured you into sharing something private or that the context made you uncomfortable sharing. I thought people might be amused by me being informed that you were joking, but I did not mean to discomfit you.

Thank you for responding. If you would like to continue the previous conversation in private, please feel free to message me; and if not, please know I leave this thread with no negative feelings toward you.
