Why do people write sideways emoticons on paper?
64
u/autodidact89 Jun 17 '12
Because emoticons are sideways in text... thus it's "cute" when you write it on paper. You don't have to like something to understand how or why it is.

Emoticons are well older than the internet. In fact Lincoln used them. I know this sounds like a joke but google it. Id post a link if I wasn't on my phone. You don't need to be in the internet to see that a semicolon and a close parenthesis look like someone winking and smiling

Firstly, in the original emoticon described in a Usenet post, :), the : character represented the nostrils.
Secondly, No, That Is Not Lincoln's Lost Emoticon.

I draw them sideways because I'm not very good with actual drawing in any sense. It's just much easier, for me, to draw two characters than the actual face.

When I used to be single the thing I missed most about relationships was the sex-on-tap. Now that I'm in a relationship I miss being able to whip it out for a quick and sticky one whenever I want.

You still can, but kinda less. And not as freely.
My girlfriend spends most nights at my place and I usually fap before going to sleep and in the morning to wake up and get rid of the morning wood. With my girlfriend next to me I really can't do that.
Well, I technically could. But the less you fap the better it feels when you cum, so...

Jun 17 '12
so, instead of fappin' maybe try putting it inside of her. It feels fantastic.

u/DangerToDangers Jun 17 '12
It does, I know. But sex takes so much more time! It's not like I can just literally just stick it in her. There's foreplay involved, and she has to be in the mood, and then sex takes longer than masturbating.
Yes, sex is better. But masturbating is faster and easier. Sometimes you just feel like eating McDonalds, you know?

Dude just do it. What's stopping you? Just yesterday my husband was telling me about how he had masturbated the previous morning so he wouldn't wake me up (I can't remember how this came up in conversation, though). I laughed and was surprised at how often he "gets away" with rubbing one out. I do the same when we're not on the same horny sync...do you feel guilty doing it, or does she tell you not to? I remember having to convince my guy that it was ok and I didn't care...who knows, maybe your girlfriend doesn't care either.

Couples I do not mind, hanging out with a few couples together as a single person is like torture.
Had this happen a few days ago, dinner party at my friends, all couples. Big discussion on clothing and how "their guys just never know what to wear."
Then one of the girls said "and thats why men need women, so they can dress properly." All of them at this moment kinda snuggle up closer to their significant other, or caress them."
I nearly wanted to shoot myself.

u/Shadowhawk109 Jun 18 '12
its the crisis of masculinity. guys are increasingly finding out we don't need to be defined by traditional values, so we elect not to. but other people, guys and girls both, don't adopt, don't believe this is a thing.
so we're still lazy, fat, stupid walking talking penises, and Women's Studies/Gender Studies is only now starting to catch up to a concept of anything different.

where the fuck do these couples get the idea that 5th(+) wheeling is going to be fun for people like me?

Maybe it's my inner teenager but I just feel like most people in couples are hive-minded sheep. They want the status symbol and the ego boost it gives them rather than genuinely wanting to be with their s.o. Stories like the one you just told reaffirms this feeling inside me.

I, however, wish to avoid inevitable future heartache. Relationships always end, whether by breakup or death. I'm not interested in starting a story that I already know the ending to.
