I once slid a large rock across an entire frozen lake. Please, contain your admiration

You should try curling. No greater satisfaction.

[-] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 24 points 9 months ago

I opt for the primitive version, as it appeals to my caveman brain.

I practiced spinning sticks so that it looks like I know what I'm doing and every now and then I even look like a cool martial artist when doing so. My wife doesn't think so but my homies got my back. I love nice sticks.

Watching someone dig a hole. Or standing by the side of a hole that was just dug and commenting about the hole. Or watching construction work in a previously dug hole.

We seem to just like holes. We are simple creatures.

Surely women also love seeing large rocks fall into a lake from great height, right? This has to be just a human love.

[-] Infynis@midwest.social 36 points 9 months ago

Women love throwing paper airplanes, when it glides perfectly on the first try

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 39 points 9 months ago

I like both. Does that make me non-binary?

[-] Rampsquatch@sh.itjust.works 49 points 9 months ago

Yes, now go buy the plush shark from Ikea.

Bringing in all the groceries in one trip.

Although... that's a lot easier now-a-days.

[-] GluWu@lemm.ee 42 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I remember grocery shopping as a kid filling the cart completely full and when we went through the register it was over $100 and my mom was going jeez that's a lot of money for a lot of food. It took 3 people several trips to unload the car.

Today I go through the self checkout, get a few frozen meals, some store brand cookies, and a case of cheap beer for $80. I can carry the two bags and beer with one hand.

"I'm making a comic about stereotypical man, but I don't know any man"

Must be a good read.

[-] hydrospanner@lemmy.world 24 points 9 months ago

In this case it's funny...if the person asking that were a white straight guy asking about any other group, folks would be getting out their pitchforks.

If there is a fire it must be bothered. It must be prodded several times and sticks need adding to it. The fire cannot be trusted not take care of itself.

I was going to say all men are different and you can't find something that will appeal to them all.

But then sploosh.

Hitting something with a ranged attack. Doesn't matter the target, doesn't matter the projectile. Basketball at hoop, dart at dart board, pee at poo stain, bb gun at empty can, snowball at tree, bullet at bullseye, it's all the same to us

How can a woman make it to adulthood without knowing any men in real life?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 37 points 9 months ago

I'm so baffled that most people reading this don't get its satire of a lot of comics, sci-fi, video games, etc but with the genders reversed and people thinking it's a reasonable position.

The author isn't being literal, they are making a joke about men who unironically say this and expect it to be considered normal.

Please don't yell at me for this I am just the messenger.

Very religious single mother with lots of money from a divorce has a daughter, sends her to a girls-only boarding school, she studies theology and joins a convent, becomes a nun - now you have a thirty-something year old woman who has never known a man on a personal conversational basis (may have seen/heard them in passing, possibly a teacher or church leader as well).

(This is most likely not the case and purely exists as a ridiculous but possible answer to your question.)

Doesn’t know any men in real life? Does she live in a nunnery?

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 34 points 9 months ago

I think this is a tongue-in-cheek jab at the very real issue of men who try to write women who literally don't have any women in their lives except possibly their mothers.

When I was a kid, my town had a bowling ball factory where they would leave the rejected balls in a big pile in back of the building, unguarded. In winter, we would sometimes nick a few and walk to one of the bridges on the local river which had iced over and drop the balls in. Dropping little rocks into water is cool and all, but absolutely nothing compares to the satisfying explosion from one of those bowling balls on ice.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 21 points 9 months ago

A bowling ball factory with unguarded rejects sounds like paradise

Building a dam in a stream and forming a little lake. Then opening the dam and making a tidal wave.
