More stories from hell (retail) today I was ringing up this lady and she goes oh I want to do part of this on a gift card and the rest on normal card and I go ok and then she hands me a folded piece of paper. I think oh OK it must be folded around the gift card, right? Wrong. It is a folded sheet of 8×11 printer paper with "$40" written on the inside in ballpoint pen. I go what is this. She says a gift card. I say this is not a gift card. She says yes it is. I say this is a piece of paper with "$40" written on it. She says "well it's a gift card." I say it absolutely is not. I am grinding my teeth. She says well I want to use it. I say you physically cannot do that bc it is a piece of paper. I cannot scan or swipe it. I apologize, as if this is my fault, and not because she is completely insane. I hate it here

girl moves away from her parents to a different part of the country & doesn’t have time to make a few work friends before a large puffball on a fuzzy stalk grows out of the crown of her head. it only hurts if you pull on it but the weeks of government attention and testing and media scrutiny have left her kind of long-term-terrified even though they’re leaving her alone now. people keep looking at her when shes walking around so she mostly drives places even though she doesn’t like it. her birthday is next week but nobody at work knows so she will have to buy herself her first legal daquiri

BLEASE explain your 'will this involve me sucking dick' metric gauge. what is the range on this, does it work like numbers

i could put numbers to it! i haven’t before, it’s usually just intuitive, but I could. let’s try! (for the confused this is about this)

notes: i’m writing this from the perspective of a guy attracted to guys but it generalizes i’m sure. these are just examples. we could even call this Mark’s Scale of Hardness

1. Distant and unlikely chance of sucking dick. This is what I’d expect from pulling a night shift with a straight guy I’m not particularly attracted to.

2. A guy you’re sure isn’t into you is showing you how to do something. He’s looking over your shoulder, showing you how you should be holding your hands, and he’s paying close attention to you. This definitely isn’t a dicksucking thing. Right? He’s just teaching you how to play the ukelele.

3. Your best friend’s divorced dad needs you to hold a flashlight and he’s wearing really thin and really old cotton shorts. Where is your friend. Who knows.

4. Walking into a public restroom with a guy you’re attracted to and you both use the urinals. And it turns out no one else is in there. Watch his eyes!

5. You’re sharing a dorm with a guy for like, two nights max. This is a hostel or some kind of weird camp scenario. He’s thinking of joining the military and you have no idea what his opinions are on pajamas. He keeps scratching himself.

6. Someone is showing you their dick for reason(s) unrelated to sucking dick. But like. It’s out. And it’s definitely not flaccid flaccid.

7. This is the number I’d assign to ‘five-hour car trip with one other person’. You’re playing music to each other, there’s the dangerous and enticing possibility of road head, and there’s that weird frisson in the air of sharing an atmosphere. If you swap seats, you might feel the heat of his ass. God.

8. Hey, your ex is here. Huh.

9. Guy who you know is interested in dudes, who you have a crush on, is sleeping over and it seems like he’s gonna want to share your bed. The floor sucks, dude. You know he doesn’t ever wear underwear.

10. Straightforward Grindr hookup.

Hey now, I'm not ashamed to be someone's midlife crisis that wrecks the one familial relationship of value they had left after their marriage was already left in tatters, I think there's a simple bliss to sucking an older fatherly type guy off and watching his mind rationalize at a mile a minute while he's polished, trying to see if he can hold on to this new idea that just occurred to him, that this was why his marriage failed, that it wasn't about all his shortcomings, the ones she hurled at him for half their marriage, maybe he loved her after all, but he just could never express it, because she could never be what he truly needed, what he has right now, a fresh femboy graduate's warm, uncaring mouth.

It doesn't matter if it's true, doesn't matter that within days when his son figures out what's transgressed, that they'll both never be able to look each other in the eyes again. But he'll believe it, believe he's truly found the answer, because it's what he needs to believe to hold onto his very idea of self without drowning it away in cheap booze and college football.

It won't be enough. He'll soon discover his son's not talking to him at all anymore, and the reason why went off to college and never left a contact number, probably on purpose. So he'll need new thrills, new trysts, he'll make a Grindr, though it won't work for a long while. When it finally does, the next morning he'll delete it off his phone out of shame, but he'll reinstall it later than afternoon, reinstall it every afternoon, an app store ouroborous, his new post-coital sacred practice. And in shame, he'll hang out again around music too young for his children, hit the gym, pick up fishing just for the hooks, mold himself out of whatever dirt and grime and emptiness he can find into whatever they all want him to be, just for an impossible chance to live that instant once again.

But back to reality, to the present laid before him: by the time he finally finishes, gasps for breath in that dusty garage, remarks begrudgingly, almost inaudibly that she never swallowed, it's too late, it's all over that selfsame second that it started, and he's already been set on the path. And he knows but doesn't believe how much he'll never feel that first high again, for no addict ever believes in himself. In his blithe denial he'll resolve himself: to chase that fading dragon's image, though it's lost forever to him even now, while it's still standing right across from him, idly checking its phone; that dragon who already picked out a dorm fridge and a roommate and won't call, and eventually, won't even remember. But those eyes that looked up at him, though almost vacant and vaguely bored, those graven images will burn in his mind, overwriting old concepts. And that innocent summer day, that unimportant August date, will cast its light across the shadows of his mind until its own lights are finally put out for good.

And it's as arithmetic as it is inevitable, nothing will ever replace those lost visions, this puzzle is not his to be solved. What truly mattered was not the mouth that spoke but the transgression that it embodied, the one singular spiraling moment when he willfully stepped out of bounds. The other liasons and scandals he finds after will all be found as cheap flings, empty flickering fleshlights with built biceps and grade point averages attached. For it was always inevitable that they could be nothing more in spite of all their gilt and glamour, for they were allowed. What he lost, long before the divorce, long before the birth of his now-betrayed son, was the sin that follows redemption. He was given its template merely once, a hint or an accident, a cosmic joke with no laughter, and it's echoes will haunt him for an eternity because he was incapable by necessity of ever speaking in their language. To the rest of us his body will die, but his prison's mind is eternal.

Um.

...

So. Yeah.

I just, uh, think that the idea of making someone else feel that sort of despair for the rest of their life is very special.

Ok no wait no hang on a second here. About the dick sucking post. I don't have the required equipment to understand. What does frequent scratching have to do with anything? This has real world consequences.

what a completely harrowing way to end your ask wow! okay so when we're in dicksucking space and i say frequent scratching i mean that the guy is frequently putting his hand on either his ballsack or his pubic mound for the ostensible purpose of scratching an itch (but is materially fondling himself whether he means it or not) hope that helps
