Great until it grabs some skin or hair

sleeps in the nude

Nutsack gets pinched

[-] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 92 points 1 year ago

Everyone knows you're supposed to wear a gambeson beneath your chainmail. Leather or padded cloth is best.

Ergo, full body gimp suit before bed

A not quite twenty year old thread where a guy got his nuts pinched in a chair and asked the internet for help

It seems very likely that I don't want to click that, but I appreciate the clarification.

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I can confirm that’s the source. Don’t worry about clicking it, most of the images are lost to time.

Which is a shame. It was hilarious.

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Maybe we should have some kind of archive of the internet so this isn't a concern! Oh wait.

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Its okay really. Funny as hell at the time but none of image links have survived.

Have you ever worn chainmail without an undershirt? Or gambeson? It feels neat at first. Never had to worry about pinching. It didn't grab any hair. The metal will feel cool and smooth all night. But oh Lord, the awful pain it will bring to unprotected virgin nipples. Like surfing for a hundred years without a rash guard all in one hedonistic night concentrated on the area less than two dimes. NEVER AGAIN. A couple bandaids or pasties the next time and all is good.

I think you'll be fine with just a top sheet between you and the chainmail.

[-] Event_Horizon@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

So what you're saying is, he needs to add nipple holes!

[-] atomicorange@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

This explains the lesser known war cry of

"Don't fire until you see the pink of their nips"

[-] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 70 points 1 year ago

And unlike most kinds of chain mail, this one is also effective at protecting the user from any thrusting attacks that could lead to penetration.

[-] scutiger@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Some of us are into penetration

You got Mail

[-] Apeman42@lemmy.world 47 points 1 year ago

They make loosely braided weighted blankets. They won't be as cool as this, but they allow for plenty of weight while still maintaining good airflow. And a far lower risk of scrotum/labia/nipple tragedy.

[-] Tai@lemm.ee 17 points 1 year ago

Any of those would make a great band name.

[-] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Wait holy shit you're right:

Risk of Scrotum

Risk of Labia

Risk of Nipple

Scrotum Tragedy

Labia Tragedy

Nipple Tragedy

Far Lower Scrotum

Far Lower Labia

Far Lower Nipple (uh?)

Lower Scrotum Tragedy

Lower Labia Tragedy

Lower Nipple Tragedy (ok, idk who had a lower Nipple but it's weird that it's in the list twice)

Lower Risk Scrotum

Lower Risk Labia

Lower Risk Nipple

Shit, this might be the biggest combo of band names in a single sentence I've ever seen

[-] SmackemWittadic@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Far Lower Nipple (uh?)

That's the clitoris I think

I'd be more interested in this for the weight. I want more weighted blanket than I can usually find, and I'm guessing this is heavier than that.

[-] Fosheze@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Fuck, now I want to get into making chainmail. Time to pick up another hobby I guess.

[-] Cenotaph@mander.xyz 8 points 1 year ago

Careful, from what I hear its an incredibly time consuming one

[-] Fosheze@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

It's like knitting but for MEN™.

~/s obviously~

[-] Cenotaph@mander.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

Coming in scents like "PRIMEVAL GRIME" and "WOODCHIPPER"

That's an understatement.

If anyone does want to get into it, don't do steel. Steel is cheap as shit, but you'll get carpal tunnel before you finish your first bag, belt or tie.

Idk if you can get like 16 gauge aluminum wire, but that would be far easier to work with. Or brass. just don't do steel

[-] nick@midwest.social 13 points 1 year ago

Ow my leg hair ow my back hair ow my arm hair.

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

What’s worse is this looks like butted mail instead of riveted mail, so it’ll have lots and lots of little snaggy pokey bits.

[-] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I can't tell from the potato quality of the pic, but that's likely. Additionally, for contact with anything that hasn't got a layer of leather between it and me, I would really prefer to have welded rings. Riveted ones are also quite the chafe.

It appears that whatever pattern this is isn't a typical 1-in-4 or 1-in-6, so I have no idea how it's actually constructed.

[-] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Hehehe that reminds me of when I was young. I had 100 feet of 16 or 18 gauge wire, a thing that wound it, and the biggest ass pair of bolt cutters I've seen. I made enough for a mail fist.

I'm never doing it again, but that was an accomplishment.

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago

Oh fuck I was just thinking about how to solve my need for a heavy blanket while not constantly overheating and waking up.

[-] JiveTurkey@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Seems like you would want to use stainless steel instead of aluminum if you're going for weight.

Edit: Yes I realize there are better conductors of heat but for the sake of using corrosion resistant welding materials I went with stainless.

Is this how those people ended up with random piercings/earrings all over their body? Like Xerxes in 300.

Earplugs were a game changer for my sleep.
