    Must be confusing for Canadian tourists for whom that hand gesture means “I’m crushing your head.”

        Same, I was hoping the conspiracy theory was that the Earth is currently being pinched between the fingers of a galactic-sized business person on their lunch break.

      I can confirm that I’m confused for the same reason

    In June 2024, finger pinching conspiracy theorists accused Nexon of misandry as a woman’s hand clapping in MapleStory illustration (left) was deemed to taunt their penis size. The company updated the image with the hands altered (right)

    Man, that is some fragile masculinity. Tiny dicks and glass balls.

        Styrofoam is too durable. Their nuts are made of aerogel. Both more insubstantial AND ALSO brittle.

    As a dude with a tiny penis … once I gave up trying to please women that whole game, conspiracy or not, don’t matter to me.

    It took a long time for me to love such a short dick. But it is mine. And it ain’t for you.

        I’ve said it before and I will say it again. It’s not about your dick. It’s about the dick your dick is attached to.

          Telling you now. A woman - and probably a guy - will appreciate a tongue far better than a dong.

          And above all that: respect and communication.

    If men with tiny penises didn’t want me to do the gesture, they shouldn’t ride my bumper when I’m in the right lane going 10 over the speed limit.

      There was an Australian anti speeding ad that had exactly this gesture.

      Edit: I looked it up & the gesture was totally different. Huh.

      If only they could set the gesture. They can’t see anything close to ground level in their pristine raised pickup trucks with double rear tires.

    It’s a pretty interesting dive into a bit of Korean history and how their extremely conservative culture, plus a bunch of equivalent 4channers, made a stupid lie become “reality”. Also a bit on how/why they are culturally accepting of people spending money in p2w games
