who tf putting a key up there?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 66 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Sorry, I thought it would unlock it so I could get all the other items out. Guess it was the wrong key though.. ☹️

No, it got stuck because it's dark, so I had to look for it with my flashlight.

It jingles when I fart. Also there's this weird squeaky sound.

On an unrelated note, I can't seem to find my rubber duckie...

consider putting a magnet up there to get the key

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sorry, lost the magnet in there as well..

I don't know how to continue this, just imagine I made a really funny reference to this book

Where else can you store them while swimming?

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 13 points 2 months ago

Ah the old prison wallet. Classic.

I work in a ER and can assure you people high on meth put all sorts of crazy shit in their butt.

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 17 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Dare I ask, why? I mean obviously meth addicts aren't known for their shrewd decisions in general, but is there some sensory or cognitive change in particular that compels them to put foreign objects in their butts more than say, alcoholics would?

[–] Eyeuhnluuung@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

Mainly the intense drive for sexual stimulation on meth combined with disinhibition and just general bad decision making.

[–] themoken@startrek.website 4 points 2 months ago

Also curious. Possibly just sex / masturbation getting out of hand with intense stimulants, or maybe meth induced paranoia makes putting something in your ass for safe keeping seem reasonable... Meth heads generally aren't hanging out in the safest conditions.

Yes. Alcoholic beverages are generally legal, within sensible context and one's local laws anyways. But meth and meth paraphenalia such as pipes are illegal practically everywhere. Which means it's more likely to find a meth pipe up someone's ass than a beer bottle.

Although this is a generalized assumption, I'm sure there are some daring people out there that have had larger things up there...

I heard about a guy once, who was a POW, and his friend wanted him to keep a watch for his son so he shoved it way up there.

The reference for the younger among us.
