Probably closer to intermittent reward than Pavlovian conditioning! But yeah, definitely already "well defined" by psychology haha

It's all good! I didn't want to sound preachy or anything, and I did notice you weren't the only one making the call (but didn't want to span my thoughts and you were first appearing in my scrolling).

I think another comment made that call about it being a reflection of a fragile sense of masculinity which lands better imo. Like, that's plausibly true, and doesn't perpetuate a cultural narrative that penis length is a corollary of masculine worthiness.

Dick size is not the issue, let's not make a genetically determined physical trait something to shame people over, when people who drive such massive vehicles have actual things we can criticise them for!

I know it's a joke, but idk not an inventive or funny one imo.

That's what's stopped me commenting too, Jerboa allows me to type out a whole comment then I lose it when I got post if the server is down. I am Australian though and recently learnt that the LW team have no-one who lives in this timezone so I can hardly blame em!

Yeah same, well here's my active status for the month.
