EMS hate motorcycles and decorative throw rugs.
and anything vaugly shaped like a butt plug but is not a butt plug.
Not with that attitude
Also, actual butt plugs. Yes, they can and they will slip inside to the point you can't get them out.
ALWAYS USE A FLAIRED BASE. Ideally a very wide flaired base.
very important lol
You ever realize that a guy is the flaired base to his penis?
The real life pro tip, in the replies as always
Flair: the 32 pins and badges at TGIFriendly's
Flare: a widening at the base
Ah, thank you I missed that :)
Reminded me of this post: https://lemmy.world/post/34770628
Why do they hate the decorative throw rugs?
Slip and fall danger.
I know 2 people that both had an accident this way. One tore off a tendon around the knee, the other fractured their hand from trying to cushion their fall. And I don't know that many people.
Yeah, people don't realize you can add non-slip materials to the bottom to minimize the risk.
Ugh, if only that worked for longer than like a month.
Eventually all these materials you can throw under throw rugs to make them stickier end up failing. Catastrophically.
Make sure to get a throw rug that has the non-slip feature sewn in. Make sure it's nice and heavy too and never put it in the dryer (it'll ruin the non-slip part). You should probably air dry throw rugs anyway, actually 🤷
Fell on a throw rug yesterday
The rug threw you. That's why they're called that!
Some real TIL gems in this thread.
Get receive rugs instead, got it
Agree on the rugs but motorcycles are more of a "I hate people" thing. I'm an EMT that dailies a bike and tons of my coworkers ride too
and those huge mirrors thar you just leaning against the wall
Do the floor rugs trip people?
And post-shit stand ups.
Potty humour?
