Bruh that's crazy about that dude's virginity

[–] korendian@lemmy.world 38 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I'm so confused, why is that there.

[–] Zink@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago

It looks to me like a joke about not getting laid.

But it’s extra silly because it’s a dude talking about his virginity growing back, when afaik that phrase probably referred to a woman’s hymen growing back after a long dry spell (which would also have been a joke).

I'm actually less concerned with the OP but more with how George Takei feels the need to double down on it

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

George Takei and his family were literally in a camp when he was a child, because all Japanese living in America were “a threat” during WWII.

He understandably has no chill when fascism is involved.

Okay but again, I'm not referring to the the white text but the part of his virginity growing back

I was thinking that too, but I think it’s because the og post is Twitter and George Takei is BlueSky. He just wanted to credit the original post.

[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Yes either way, I would like to know why Takei is thinking his virginity is growing back

I think it's a reference about how fucked we are about to be. Like Madonna sang... like a virgin.

[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I think if it's growing back that's a sign of very little fucking going on. And I'm not sure which Madonna song you're referring to, but if it's American Pie by Don McLean, that song is about the plane crash that killed Buddy Holly.
