the seconds sentence is like satire but it's twitter so idk
I usually end up rubbing mine all over the terminal because each one seems to be a special snowflake with the NFC spot and I can just hear the voice in my head: "That's not it... That's not it either" then the cashier has to show me exactly where it is.
Nonsense. You assert dominance by laying your credit dick across its POS face. Nothing fem about that.
What is wrong with straight people? Are they okay?
Why are y'all taking this seriously?
there are a non zero amount of straight guys who saw this and will never tap their card ever again
Doesn't make this any less of an obvious joke
IDK but I'm pan and it's obvious to me that this is satire.
Yes but thats because you may be self aware.
There's no hope for any who do.
Real men take what they want and don't apologize. If you're not serving 25-life for multiple petty robberies that escalated to attempted murder for no discernible reason other than insecurity about your dick size then you're not a real man.
This guy has definitely fucked a chip reader.
I mean, we all have. Right?
I stopped fingering one to type this and now its doing the error beep.
No dad it's not hormones I just accidentally tapped my card at the store and instantly grew a set of boobs.
Here's exactly what my feed looks like. I'd say this is further evidence that the straights are not okay.

I think the first is satire (hard to say for sure though) but that second one isn't a straight.
Admit you're gay or take 25.
This dude takes 50 cards (just in case).
What a bananas take.
"I'm so horny at all times it feels like a goddamn fever dream, a literal full beard is the only thing that even slows me down. Everyone needs to cover themselves in one way or another, otherwise the urge to just dick them down on sight is too much, it's unreasonable to expect me and other men to simply resist."
That is so needlessly and intensely erotic
Penetrative thrust into the chip reader 😩
Paying for things is feminine. You should punch the cashier and shout “this is mine!” like a real man.
/s, obviously
Pay the iron price
Did you pay the tap price or insert price, son?
Instructions unclear, my penis is stuck in a card reader and I have a lifetime ban from Chipotle.
Can someone make a shitty shop of a card reader with a card in it and a aheago face please?
Sure thing

Topic, I love you it’s perfect!
Thank you, its beautiful
I hear the newer versions now like it in the receipt hole.
Also: who needs AI....a text prompt leading to the creation of a new image. You've seen it here folks.
There is nothing more fragile than the masculinity of "bros" who worship masculinity.
Is this satire?
Given the wording "confident and penetrative thrust", I think it must be satire.
I checked out the Twitter account. I think it's clearly a joke, but the guy is a big Trump supporter so I'd say he does ultimately believe the rhetoric behind the joke. Therefore, not satire.
I overestimate people...
Thank you for putting in the work.
When I was a cashier, there was definitely a subset of people - usually the same people wearing maga hats - who did refuse to use the tap. They believed it was insecure. I looked it up, it's slightly more secure than the chip (if only because contactless systems are not yet susceptible to counterfeit card reader attachments).
It was pretty annoying too, because I was frequently stationed at a register that had a broken chip reader. Some people would get frustrated very quickly and, like, start rage-jamming the card into the machine repeatedly. It's kind of scary how many people go from 0-60 unhinged at checkout.
After learning about the security aspect, and because of that broken reader, I made it a point to educate everyone I could about the tap. A lot of people aren't even aware their card can do that stuff.
I exercise ultimate security by just having no money. If anybody manages to open the Pandora's Box that is my bank account, best of luck to them.
I do the thrust, but it's because I'm old and forget that tapping is an option.
This pairs well with my draft article “Penetration fascination slows wireless charging adoption”
I insert mine vigorously because my NFC chip doesn't seem to work reliably.
Now I might remember to look them in the eye while I transact.
For true contactless payment I do neither. I just hover my card / handset near the reader.
Is there something I should know about myself?
Yes. That you should be waving it over the reader and saying "you don't require payment" loud enough for the cashier to hear
this isn't the credit card you're looking for

If I pay cash, does that make me nonbinary?
Depends, do you gayly slide it over or do you slam it on the counter, breaking it?
As a straight person, I can safely say "no". Please send help
broke: tapping your card
woke: thrusting it
bespoke: not making any contact with the terminal to assert dominance

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
