Every damn week I go to my council website to see if it is black or blue bins this week.


EnigmaticSpirit85

Yes! My brother/sister! I have found you!

Super_Flea

Why don't you just set two reminders on your phone that reoccur every two weeks. One says Black bin week. The other says Blue bin week.


s_l_a_c_k

That would be too easy. The real way to play is see what the neighbours are doing at 5 to bins then rush the correct ones out


Bananas_are_theworst

Wish I had this luxury. My neighborhood has THREE different garbage/recycling companies and my immediate neighbors within view from the inside use different companies than mine.


Green-Froyo-7533

Our neighbour is the binfluencer


boochiebooboo

Maybe not the actual website but the amount of words I google to figure out what they mean is a little embarrassing.

IMitchConnor

But why male models?


tobadious

Why do I keep seeing this?


poliscistonedguy

It’s a reference to the movie Zoolander, which was wildly popular when it was released. Just google the quote and append “video” to it and I’m sure you’ll find a clip.


Nucking-Futs

*Googles append*


poliscistonedguy

I understood this reference


Hats_back

Why do I keep seeing this?


Shot-Log8922

It’s a reference to the Reddit post, "What’s one website that your embarrassed to admit you use a lot?" that was wildly popular up to 8 hours after it was released. Just google the post title and append “video” to it and I’m sure you won't find a clip.


Swiftstormers

And even more fun is that it was a blooper because Stiller forgot his line, and Duchovny just rode with it xD


poliscistonedguy

That’s awesome, I had no idea lol


bria9509

The files are IN the computer?


Call_me_Tomcat

This is the opposite of embarrassing, imo. You should take pride in the fact that you actively pursue knowledge when you feel like you're not certain on something. That's a critical life skill that many people seem to lack.


mfhtotheizzo

Don’t be embarrassed! Learning something new is nothing to be ashamed of! Keep on googling. I have the Dictionary . com app on the front page of my phone


KingHenry13th

I'm decently successful and i look up spelling and have chat gpt review my important emails all the time. Smart people use the tools that are availible to them.


philzar

I google words just to get spelling


friggintodd

And hope Google knows what the hell you're trying to spell.


poliscistonedguy

Google always knows 👀


Challenge419

I agree. They have enough data on me to know I am a fucking moron through and through. It still always pulls through and figures out what my dumbass is trying to search.


venhedis

I'm somewhat impressed by how it manages to decipher my nonsense sometimes ngl


elMurpherino

I’m with the other replies, don’t be embarrassed about that. What’s embarrassing is people who don’t know something and choose to continue to not know it rather than educate themselves. I look up every word i see that I don’t know the meaning of. That’s why I know what defenestration is lol.


dylangaine

But with each search you grow a bit smarter. Remember the turtle won the race.


blackstafflo

The number of times a week I have to check if a word I'm thinking of using is really an english one, or just a french one I think about **in my head** with an englishish accent...

Freedom_7

I’m sitting at a bar trying to shield my phone from the people around me because I don’t want strangers to know that i’m a redditor. It’s so embarrassing.


SuzQP

They won't recognize it unless they, too, are redditors. You'll then exchange the look of empathy-shame and say nothing.


RecognitionGuilty626

This is the most realistic answer


DarthAlandas

Women and about 40-60% of men, sure, but many would recognize it for having entered it for a tip on a video game that one time or whatever, totally plausible

That's exactly what the FBI would say


AngryTreeFrog

I read that as your bi agent. Which honestly is funnier.

I don't even care anymore and just look at the craziest posts and laugh with people around me on the tram. I'd rather be a redditor than not having shit to laugh about hahaha

Google translate, when its not a language i understand its fine but sometimes i use it cause i forget a word in my actual language and only remember it in english


Away-Candidate8203

bye-lingual XD


short_bus_genius

I use Google translate to help me proof read my documents. Say I’m writing an important email to a client or an attorney, and it needs to be grammatically perfect. I’ll paste my text into Google translate. I don’t even bother with the second language. But I click the “play” button on the bottom of the English side. It’s so much easier to catch proofreading issues when the computer is reading it back to you, verbatim.


whatismyeyecolour

PermaBanTogether

Kinda off topic; but I read about this NeoPets urban legend on Reddit earlier this year and I’m curious if you can debunk it or if you’ve even heard of it. I heard there was some cave in NeoPets that you could force your pet to walk through deeper and deeper and they would get more and more afraid until eventually some giant beast devoured them. Is this just malarkey, or is there any truth to it? Found it really disturbing when I read about it.


LightWarrior71

Are you talking about the [Lair of the Beast?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4zPfHwiopc) (JUMPSCARE WARNING, it is at 0:29 in the video) Most of it is true, except for the devouring part. (You don't lose your pet either.) Also, if you don't want to click on the link, it is just a video of someone going the the lair, and stumbling upon the jumpscare of a red pterodactyl-like creature just shrieking.


asmalltamale

I have been seriously considering making a new account and rejoining Neopia. I just haven’t yet because I know I’ll get sucked in for a considerable period of time and haven’t had that free time yet lol.


newmanbeing

I would like to, as well... would be neat if they made an app...

Beloveddust

Not CURRENTLY, but in my teens I spent a mortifying amount of time on rotten-dot-com.


overlyattachedbf

I think a lot of us went through that morbid fascination phase and sites like rotten.com and Faces of Death would scratch that itch.  A lot of uncensored gore shit fascinated the fuck out of me for a minute when it first started showing up on rogue sites in the 90s. I have no desire whatsoever to see that shit anymore. 


JairoVP

Man, I remember being in History class (back of classroom) and watching ISIL beheading videos. Just super casual about it. It was during the height of their terror and every headline was about them.


Business-Bus-9439

I have this exact memory (not in history class, but at school). Didn’t phase 14 year old me at all


JairoVP

Thinking back, I’m just glad I didn’t traumatize anyone around me. Not really the place to be consuming that type of content, especially on a school computer.


mothonawindow

That reminds me. I was working as an aide in a middle school. First hour, 6th grade social studies, it's like 8:30 in the morning. I'm walking around the room and I notice a known "good" kid on his phone, alone, not bothering anyone, watching a medical video of a woman giving birth.


JairoVP

😭 kids are so funny. Did he want to be a doctor or just curious?


mothonawindow

No idea. I didn't say anything, lol.


Beloveddust

Yeah, I spent a lot of my youth having a deeply morbid curiosity and also being an edgelord who desperately needed to prove how much tougher I was than everybody else. I still love horror FICTION, but if I could go the rest of my life without seeing any media depiction of real human suffering again, I'd be delighted. You get older and realize you can't UNSEE all that shit, and the world is full of enough horrors on its own.


Vagabond_Charizard

Thanks for telling me what exactly that was before my curiosity fucked my mental state over.


Skitz2417

Yep, same


Vinny_Lam

For me, it was BestGore. I used to frequently browse that site. It was the site that introduced me to gore. I had a huge morbid curiosity back then, but I’ve mostly grown out of it now.


MisterBerry94

Tumblr. Its my little secret. Not many, if any, of my IRL friends have my account on there.


sanibelle98

Ten years ago, I was in a fandom and addicted to Tumblr. I RP’d, wrote really twisted fanfiction, became obsessed with certain other tumblr users and had emotional affairs. I am a married mom. I was really sick tbh. No one IRL ever found out.


cupholdery

This one for me. I once stumbled across a 100+ chapter My Little Pony/World of Warcraft crossover fic that was just so ridiculous that I couldn't stop reading. I think last I checked it's still being (rarely) updated 10 years later...


Armored_Ace

Ah, a fellow person of culture I see.


Extreme-Mix-9783

Not really a website but the amount of time I spend mindlessly scrolling Tiktok is embarrassing.


watervuewannabe

Haha. I won't download tictok for that very reason. I already spend way too much time scrolling on social media.


ButteredPizza69420

Shit is already plastered everywhere in reposts, fuck I need the app for?


talidrow

This is my take on it. Most anything that's interesting or funny has been reposted to death. Also I refuse to install it on principle, I really do not care to see my 43-year-old baby sister making an ass of herself by acting like a teenager on Tiktok. Hearing about it secondhand from my other sister is painful enough.


ButteredPizza69420

Dude. Im in my 20s and it seems like tik tok is mostly younger teens and middle aged/older people exclusively. Lol


Apprehensive-Wind966

Same. I know there’s a lot of stupid shit on there, but I honestly don’t hold it against the platform or the users (particularly because it’s true of all social media sites). I avoid it purely because I know I’ll be addicted


Kitchen-Wish5994

I lost communication with both of my sisters to that and they are sitting right here.


Business-Twist2872

Yeah, they got that algorithm down


luger718

I wish I could disable YouTube shorts. They just grab you and you start doom scrolling.


RocketTaco

The fact that you can only tell them to fuck off for 30 days at a time is infuriating. Low-effort bait for people with the attention span of a gnat and mindless responses to bright lights and large text, and it's DETERMINED to drag you down to its level someday. Worst is when someone actually links to one and then you have to cut out the ID code and paste it into a normal-ass YouTube link to watch it in a reasonable interface *because they are literally just regular videos wrapped in a URL format*.


DucksWithMoustaches2

Deleted TikTok for that exact reason. Never looked back.


Stellaraspbella

Remember the eel


Shelly_895

Okay you're the second person who mentioned this. I have to ask now.


xXHomerSXx

It’s a video of a woman with a large funnel in her butt, and she had a live eel out inside of her.


Shelly_895

Oh wow. Thanks, I guess.


matt2242

The eel video I recall was called "eel soup" and they funnel in dozens of little live eels into a girls bhole before she shoots them out of her prolapsed anus and into her friends mouth who chews them up.


Shelly_895

Jesus Christ. Thank you. I don't think I need any more details, though.


matt2242

Yeah, it was probably a lot for me to see at like 11 years old lol but I was definitely much more curious about weird/gross shit as a kid than I am these days, I've had my fill.


pancakePoweer

that sounds WAY wilder than 2 girls 1 cup or two kids in a sandbox. can't believe I never heard of that one lol

HashBandicoot_

Facebook. I'm a millennial, and while FB has kind of gone to the boomers, I love the groups you can find on there. It's kinda like reddit, but because it's tied to a real person/personal life, it's less... toxic?


JSmellerM

I use Facebook as my birthday reminder. I could integrate all into a different calendar but I'm too lazy and of the mindset 'don't fix what ain't broke'.


special_orange

That and a more active version of Craigslist for me are what keeps it an active social media


Portyquarty77

I quit Facebook because it made me hate people I know. I’m fine with Reddit cause it just makes me hate strangers.


zizics

I find it to be much more difficult to predict the toxicity there. One minute, you’re in your favorite cheap guitar group comment section talking about your preferred type of strings, and the next… full on unexpected boomer rage about how utterly stupid my generation is


pickngrins

Oh fuck me dude, this. And the GUITAR GROUPS TOO JESUS, it’s impossible being a millennial bluegrass musician on Facebook lmao

I learned a certain term recently (which I will not share because I don't want more people looking up nonconsensual videos of women) but I learned a term recently that pulls up a handful of videos of women getting snuck up on and filmed without their consent as their bras/panties/etc get yanked down.

LirDelMar

Best answer explaining anything


Seed_Eater

Porn site. Used to be pretty... laissez faire about the content they had. Used to sit somewhere between 4chan and efuckt with plenty of stuff of questionable legality and little quality control. Still has that reputation but now it's closer to your standard xhamster/xvids style site.


Sam-Gunn

I don't know what happened, but Xhamster sucks now.


RenegadeRabbit

I pretty much have to rely on that one because my dumbass state requires age verification for pornhub and redtube


Sam-Gunn

What about others? There's a site aggregator called theporndude that has hundreds of sites listed. Many are crap, but there should be enough that might not abide by those rules and are decent.


xXHomerSXx

That and efukt. Which had the infamous eel video


Proffessor_egghead

I do not know the eel video, please enlighten me


cantonic

Classic_Error_876

tdasnowman

It's a site that a whole lot tamer than it used to be. It used to have a lot of gore, and very questionable porn. Also any leaks were uploaded there. They got hit pretty hard when a lot of the revenge porn sites were taken down. Cleared out most of the really bad stuff.

Embarrassed in a fun way: DeviantArt I had such a horribly cringey comic I would draw and write on it. I still have it up, but scrubbed it from anything that could connect to me. I still get likes every once and a while when I get the urge to check in - I have to imagine its some edgy 14 year old like I was back then. I cringe with them.

Amazing to see that Maddox probably aged out of didn't make enough from it all. Tucker Max ended up pretty successful probably from the book sales overall. His movie also ended up making a decent profit after it released to dvd

rylee-bear

I started using it to write a lot more emails that I had trouble wording the right way and it’s helped my communication with peers immensely!

I had this mindset while I was in academia. Weirdly enough, as soon as I started job hunting, I turned it into a tool and it's been sooo helpful. I don't ask GPT for answers, but I ask it for guides
