    Start pronouncing it ‘nucular’, there’s no bigger turn off.

    • Banana@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      RIGHT?! I’m glad I’m not the only one. It’s based on the term NUCLEUS ffs.

        Dubya said nucular, must be right.

        Common misconception but it’s actually based on Saint Nukulus, the guy that puts uranium in your boots if you leave them out overnight.

        Now, to be fair, nucleus it comes from the latin nuculus. It just that it sounds bad and feels bad to say

      Fun fact: “nuclear” ultimately comes from the Latin nuculus, ‘little nut’. The c and l being adjacent is the result of metathesis, similar to pronouncing “ask” as “ax”.

      source
      • Schmoo@slrpnk.net ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

        Now go further back. Where does the latin word nucula come from?

        Is that because we exist within a nut?

        Or something like that, I don’t know. I don’t remember anything from the “the universe in a nutshell” book.

      Clearly you have not been to a bar in Capitol Hill.

      That’s nothing, that’s tame, that’s barely even remarkable as odd for all the wild shit I’ve seen and heard at and around the bars there.

    Sort of a similar situation with me and renfair people. I build and fit people with custom orthopedic braces and prosthetics and have access to a metal and leather lab.

    I wouldn’t claim anyone is overly flirtatious, but they do seem to get friendlier and ask a lot of questions about things like hand setting rivets.

        I do work with a lot of moldable foam. I’ve always kinda figured if I get kicked from the field or get bored I can always build costumes or custom leather kink gear.

    If you are worried about too many furries in your line of work, try changing jobs! Maybe get into IT or something?

    If you don’t like this meme, post your own. That’s how this works, both here and on Reddit. Platform has nothing to do with it, unless it’s a closed, invite-only forum. That’s the only way you can keep out simple farmers, the people of the land. The common clay of the Earth.

      It was nurses for me. Not necessarily attracted them, but like a third of my matches on dating apps were nurses. And I remember one of them mentioning that it seemed like every other guy she matched with was in IT (at the time I thought it was simply because dating apps were still kinda new around here and IT people were more likely to be trying it)

      We don’t know if they were bragging or not. It’s pretty common to ask what someone’s job is during small talk. For all we know he literally just said his job title and left it at that.

        I think bragging about how much money or education you have is very low class. I also think this is how you end up with a golddigger wife. Better to hide your wealth.

    • sanpedropeddler@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Jobs come up pretty damn often in conversation with strangers. If they ask, youre obliged to tell them the truth. Doing so would hardly constitute bragging in my opinion.
