I've always wanted to talk about how weird it was scrolling through reddit and then suddenly seeing myself on the front page. I was banned from reddit for talking about politics (I am anti trump) on the air force reddit so I wasn't even able to comment on a post about me.

For some backstory, I was returning from a Halloween cruise and it was the only clean shirt I had left (I was planning on wearing it during the cruise as there were no children allowed on the cruise and with the theme I thought it would get a few laughs or at least start a conversation). I never did though and doing laundry on a cruise was quite expensive (I think 50 dollars per load or something like that). I tried to hide the shirt as best I could throughout the day as I do think it was slightly inappropriate to wear in a public setting.

For the record, I love all the comments roasting me and I laughed all fucking day reading them!

Anyways, I have always wanted to publicly talk about this and in my search for reddit alternatives I found lemmy so here we are. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

The correct Francophile pronunciation is tiddy

If they can't find one with this much exposure, there's no hope

All these dudes that fetishize """goth""" girls all look the same.

Praise be to the BTGGF

Are you a TSgt that lives in the barracks?

50 dollars per load? Outrageous

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

He said in the original thread that he looked it up and it was 30. Still outrageous.
