An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

What’s it like walking around with a dick that big?

BURN THE WITCH!!!

Why is this not an AMA?

Seriously impressive stuff here.

We need to make a throne ... like the Iron Throne from Game of Thrones ... but made out of USB cables

What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.

Given the improbability of plugging it in on the first try, I'm going to need to see some proof.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago

Even when it's first hand knowledge, I don't believe it. I plug in the usb plug. I pull it out reflexively. I try again, it doesn't go in, I confuse, I turn I try again, fail, I turn back, is ok.

Probably could have used the gru plan meme there somehow

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 hours ago

That's nothing, I tried to plug a USB-C in the other day and failed.

DULL mens club..

Get that exciting once-in-a-lifetime shit out of this sub

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

Not to be "that guy" but I've never understand this issue. A usb has two distinguished sides that look different from one another one side goes plug in top up and vice versa

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

Try plugging a USB in without looking at the device first. That's what most people do.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 hours ago

Looks like you never used any usb devices. /s

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago

Yeah, and most of the time, the usb ports are designed to the same orientation too.

[–] Ghyste 13 points 12 hours ago

Whoa there. That's too much excitement for this comm.

No one has ever lied on the internet eyes rolling at the speed of light

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

Impressive!

My eyes can only see at the speed of light sadly.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago

It was ‘this 🐟 big!’

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago

Probability for that is 1:3, because usually it's "doesn't fit" *flip* "doesn't fit" *flip* "fits" .

[–] [email protected] 13 points 13 hours ago

What? Impossible!

Why is this posted here??????? Legend!!!!

Buy a lottery ticket before your divine fortune wears off.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago

Pics or it didn't happen!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

I just check the port and plug in accordingly, I can't remember the last time I didn't plug it in on the first try.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

My fixed wall-mounted flat screen tv just chuckled.
It was turned off.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago

Sounds like a good time to murder it before it becomes sentient.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 13 hours ago

I bought one yesterday and tried it for the first done in a while after being all in on C

First try — yeah that’s definitely wrong. Rotate and try again, huh? Rotate again and it worked.

I don’t understand, my first try I made sure to check and push. USB A has the craziest quantum macro phenomena.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

“All you have to do” is look closely at the plug and see which side has the seam. Then look at the port and figure out which way the circuit board is using your x-ray vision. The seam, 99.9% of the time, points to the circuit board. If you’ve got at least 3 minutes to spare each time, you’ll usually get it right.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

I have NEVER been able to do this. It always takes me 3 tries. Bravo sir.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago

My trick is to keep all the USB-A stuff plugged into an USB-C hub at all times. Then I just plug in that one.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago

Say what you will about type B, they have a distinct top

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 hours ago

I’ll need some proof before I can believe this. Show us this “plugged in” connection.

[–] philycheeze 2 points 13 hours ago

Witchcraft!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 13 hours ago

This is good evidence that the simulation is failing. Maybe need to reset the container.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 13 hours ago

Buy a lotto ticket.
