There’s a surprisingly more expansive demographic that pro tip applies to.

You called out “tip”, but you left “expansive” just lying there helpless?

[–] MudSkipperKisser@lemmy.world 27 points 2 years ago

Don’t worry, it’ll rise to the occasion

Yepp, just the tip.

I'm 41f (going on 13 at times), and this is why my husband hates(loves) having me around the shop - all the mechanical everything is full of euphemisms and innuendo. "mating surfaces" 😂

Are emojis acceptable here? Because I’d like to insert the hand raise one here

[–] Deez@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think yes, let’s make a new culture of restrained emoji use 🙌

Oh were they referring to praise hands? I thought they meant 🙋

[–] Deez@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I was high fiving their raised hand

The Breakfast Club fist pump. There should be a dedicated emoji for that.

Yeah, that tip is applicable for a lot of people who understand what sex is, this isn't something that really goes away with age in a lot of cases.
