Shen has a new artstyle? Is that his new avatar or is that a separate character?

[–] junkthief@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago

I could be wrong, but I think they’ve been playing around with their style a bit while still maintaining some identifiable characteristics

I've had women ask me out who had literally never said a positive thing about my appearance a singular time before hand.

Asking me out is a step beyond complimenting my appearance though.

If they were so bold as to ask me out they weren't afraid of coming off as creepy.

Because it's rude to comment on the physical appearance of strangers

If you really want to make a man’s day, compliment them on their dick.

[–] kami@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

Ehm, no, it's just a dick.

We don't need it. We still like it, but we don't need it.

[–] 5too@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Well, no. Just because we can survive without it doesn't mean we don't need it!

(Though honestly, your reaction was my first snarky thought too!)

[–] ulterno@programming.dev 0 points 1 week ago

That was my thought too. And not a snarky one, but a genuine one.

I remember once, giving a civil smile, while thinking 'meh', on receiving a compliment once. Because I felt that the complement was for the sake of complementing, but at the same time, the words were +ive, so I felt the need to respond positively.
