So yesterday I was scrolling through random forum threads – just killing time before dinner, you know how it goes. This one post about slang dictionaries popped up and honestly? It got me wondering. How do people actually talk about… well, self-pleasure in casual chats? Like what funny words they toss around. Figured I’d dig around myself, see what’s out there. Messy internet deep dive incoming.

The Awkward Search Starts
Grabbed my coffee, cracked open the laptop – felt like a weird mission but whatever. Typed garbage into search bars trying random combos like “silly solo time phrases” or “not serious ways to say jerk off”. Felt kinda dumb but kept clicking links. Forum archives from like 2005, sketchy urban dictionary knockoffs, the works. Pages full of stuff that made zero sense. Took a solid hour just wading through internet nonsense before anything usable showed up.
Stumbling on Actual Gems
Finally hit a music forum where people weren’t trying too hard to be edgy. Scrolled past the usual garbage jokes and three phrases actually made me chuckle:
- Shaking hands with the unemployed – Sounds like sarcastic career advice? Brutal honesty there.
- Polishing the unicorn horn – Weirdly wholesome cartoon vibes mixed with… that.
- Convincing the clown to cry – This one’s just bizarre mental imagery. Why a sad clown? Who knows.
Copied those suckers straight into my notes app. Seriously, the stuff people come up with.
Testing the Waters
Couldn’t resist trying ’em out casually. Texted my most chill gaming buddy later like “bro spent all night convincing the clown to cry instead of grinding levels”. His reply? “Holy crap that’s bleak but accurate” followed by crying-laughing emojis. Mission accomplished – got the awkward chuckle I was chasing.
Anyway. That was my strange afternoon project – hunting down dumb slang like a linguistic raccoon digging through trash. Don’t judge.
