Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Was at a bar with some friends and talking with one of them, who happened to be a rather attractive woman. She was not my girlfriend, I'll explain the relationship below...
The bar was a dive in the town that we frequented often on Saturday nights. A guy walked up and started talking with my friend and pointedly getting in between us, telling her that he was a "Skydiver" and that he had just jumped that day. She acted suitably impressed and made ooh and ahhh noises when he told her about the Tandem jump he had done that day.
My relationship to that woman? She jumped the tail slot on my 4-way team and we had done 11 training jumps just that day. She also was also north of 2000 jumps at the time and jumped with me competitively.
Oh and the guy's tandem master that day was her husband.
It didn't take long for the guy to run away with his tail firmly tucked between his legs. She had a very sharp tongue when annoyed.
