Something Positive - March 12, 2025

43 comments

I'm convinced my wife is at least partially a reptile. The inability to maintain body heat is amazing.
- Im pretty sure my wife's feet secrete ice. They are somehow still freezing cold despite being in the thickest socks I could find.
  
  My wife refers to the electric blanket as the single best thing that has ever happened to her. She says she doesn't need me anymore.
- Fun fact estrogen makes people feel colder. Many trans women, including myself, have a much harder time staying warm after starting hrt. I don't remember the exacts but it changes blood flow and makes it easier to lose heat
  
  I thought I read somewhere that it directed more to the core instead of the extremities
- Mine is always cold, but turns into a fucking nuclear reactor when she falls asleep.
  
  A mobile thermonuclear reactor that needs to cuddle. I need a cool bottle of water nearby at all times to prevent overheating.
- let's try bleeding monthly for a week for a couple of decades and see if we can still keep our feet warm
  we should also spend half of that month with a lower body temperature
- Mine's a heat battery. Normally colder than anyone around, but let's go cuddle and sleep and 1h later I'm overheating after she reached critical heat and started radiating it back.

Bunch of show-offs in here bragging about having wives...
- But doctor, I AM the wife!
  
  I'm both the wife and the wife haver
  
  Roll on snare. Everybody laughs.
- I don't know if it's a brag when the relationship is that transactional.

is this "found"?
- ~~;;|,;~~
  
  ̶:̶ ̶.̶ ̶|̶ ̶:̶ ̶;̶
- What do you mean by that?
  
  There's an infamous comic titled "Loss" and it's become a meme to try to remind people of it by making other comics with a similar arrangement of characters. The comic in this post has kind of a reversed arrangement, so one might see it as the opposite of Loss, therefore "Found".
  
  They are joking about it because it looks similar to the webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del

So not just me
Good to know I’m not the only sufferer of wife having cold feet
- I think my partner and I have had almost this exact conversation even.

Holy shit Something Positive. I used to read this religiously. Glad to see it's still around.
- Right? I've been reading that since like, high school.

Oh man, it's been forever since I read this webcomic.
And yeah, that's pretty much how my 20 years of marriage has been.

I actually don't get it, can someone please explain ?
- The guy got a milkshake for his wife and she was grateful, then they both got sarcastic because that's how they do.
  
  Ah, ok
  
  Is that what a chocolate malt is? I was wondering about that. Do they actually add malt to it?
