Sexy Things That Actually Suck In Practice
Sometimes, what seems hot in theory definitely isn't in practice. Recently, Reddit user Skybuwie asked people to share something they once thought was sexy until they actually tried it, and the responses are a wild ride. Here are some of the (NSFW) best... "Being dominant. I accidentally said 'kneel, peasant'." "Mile high club. I'm sure it's fine on a private jet or something. On a regular plane, though? Cramped AF bathroom, extremely difficult to get into a comfortable position." "Talking dirty probably works for some people, and I thought it would be fun, but I get incredibly self-conscious and end up sounding like Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. 'I hope you are enjoying the feeling of my penis in your vagina. It is quite a pleasing feeling for me as well.'" "Sex in the bath is chafing and difficult and someone is always out of the water and cold." "Shower. WHY DOES WATER MAKE IT DRY." "Pool sex. Tore my frenulum and the pool looked like a scene from Jaws." "Food play. Chocolate sauce and cream get really sticky." "Okay, so I really thought lingerie would be this magical confidence booster. I bought this lacy red thing that looked amazing in the mirror…until I tried walking in it. It itched in places I didn't know could itch, one strap kept slipping off, and by the time I actually got to the 'big moment,' I was more focused on not looking like a tangled piñata than being sexy. Ended up yanking it off halfway through and now it's just chilling in a drawer like a $50 regret." "Getting called 'Daddy' in bed." "Satin sheets. We nearly slid off the bed." "In my early 20s, I started to dabble in some rougher porn. I had a hookup with a guy who liked that I was 'into that' and the sex that night was rough. I literally stopped him after about five minutes and was like, 'Yeah, I like watching other people take it hard, but I hate this for myself.' He totally understood and stopped immediately, but it was a bit awkward, and we didn't finish. He just apologized a bit and I told him it was fine, and he left." "Reverse cowgirl. Wife and I tried it twice and nearly killed ourselves." " the one sat on. I mean everything in my brain tells me 'YES I want to be smothered in all that THICC FLESH'...but when actually there, I can't breathe, I can't feel my face, I can't move my tongue, I can't see, and my cheeks are getting friction burns from her cheeks." "Sex on the beach. You both just get sand in places you don't want sand." "Sex on a leather couch. You get stuck and its 900 degrees." "Partner swapping. My ex-wife and I were friends with another couple, and one night we all ended up getting it on next to each other. Then we tried swapping. I thought it would be hot, but it was just awkward. Not awful, but totally lacking the thrill I'd expected and instead a sort of 'how soon will this weirdness be over' vibe. I had fantasized about it before, but I have no interest in that now. I no longer think the George Michael lyric 'sex is best when it's one on one' was just a politically correct line." "Pop rocks during a blowjob. I had read something about it in, I think, a Cosmo mag at one point, and I tried it with my college boyfriend. He did not enjoy it, and a few of them snapped in my nasal cavity, which was also quite unpleasant. Do not recommend, but much laughter followed, and we're still together 19 years later." "Three-way with someone you're serious about. Will definitely lead to problems and I do not recommend." "Finishing on my girl's face. She agreed to try it, and I was super excited. As soon as I finished and looked at her, I felt like absolute scum of the earth. I deeply apologized, and she said it was all fine since we talked about it and agreed to it. Felt like the most degrading thing I've ever done to another person." "Anal. Don't care for it. I was certainly curious, but vaginal and oral are way better." "Fucking for 30 minutes or more. That shit is tiring. If you change it up, switch back to foreplay for a bit, and/or take breaks, that's cool. But non-stop penetration gets boring and uncomfortable after a while." "Not even sure what it's called but thing where the penis goes between the boobs and they hold them together and you do a few I could see the appeal from an outside perspective, but it didn't even feel good, and I can't imagine being the woman is any good either. 'Oh look, there's a penis poking at my chin, etc.'" And finally, "Sauna almost died." Care to share your reality-doesn't-match-fantasy realizations?

A pinch of strangeness at play
How many of you have played rock, paper, scissors? We played it all the time in school — sometimes just as a game, sometimes to decide who would play first in a game, and sometimes to break a tie. I remember, a few years ago, watching an episode of the popular TV show The Big Bang Theory, where Sheldon comes up with a new version of rock, paper, scissors called 'rock, paper, scissors, lizard, Spock.' I was amused that someone could complicate such a simple game. However, this perspective changed when I attended a conference on traditional games in Spain. One of the delegates demonstrated on stage the game of Morra. It is a more sophisticated version of rock, paper, scissors, and is played in various versions across Europe. It is a hand game, that I understand, dates back thousands of years to ancient Roman and Greek times. While there are many variations of Morra, most forms can be played with a minimum of two players. In the most popular version, the players throw out a single hand, each showing zero to five fingers, and call out their guess as to the sum of all fingers.

'Big Bang Theory' Sci-Fi Spinoff Confirmed For HBO Max
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors Max is officially changing back to HBO Max, and with that change it looks the first priority was to put in a series order for another "The Big Bang Theory" spinoff. The series, "Stuart Fails to Save the Universe," stars Kevin Sussman, Lauren Lapkus, Brian Posehn and Ross Bowie. Read More: 'The Office's Craig Robinson Reveals His Retirement Was A Prank Unlike "Young Sheldon" or "Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage," the spinoff "Stuart Fails to Save the Universe" will actually incorporate science fiction into the story. The series is set after the events of "The Big Bang Theory." Comic book store owner Stuart Bloom (Sussman) breaks a device created by Sheldon and Leonard, and as a result sparks a cataclysm throughout the multiverse. Above, Sheldon (Jim Parsons), Amy (Mayim Bialik), Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Penny (Kaley Cuoco) are pictured in "The Big Bang Theory" Season 12.

Above, Sheldon (Jim Parsons), Amy (Mayim Bialik), Leonard (Johnny Galecki) and Penny (Kaley Cuoco) are pictured in "The Big Bang Theory" Season 12. Cuoco said it would have been heartbreaking no matter when the series ended. More Michael Yarish/CBS Sussman needs to try to fix his mistake, and along the way he'll be running into alternate universe versions of characters from "The Big Bang Theory." He's joined by his girlfriend Denise (Lapkus), a geologist buddy named Bert (Posehn), and quantum physicist Barry (Bowie). The show will incorporate elements of fantasy, comedy and science fiction along with using plenty of CGI. Chuck Lorre executive produces "Stuart Fails to Save the Universe" along with Bill Prady and Zak Penn. Lorre said, "I wanted to do something radical that would take me out of my comfort zone. Something the characters on 'The Big Bang Theory' would have loved, hated, and argued about." "I was on a vision quest in the most remote parts of the Amazon Rainforest when a carrier pigeon arrived with a note from Chuck Lorre asking if I wanted to help make a show that the characters from 'Big Bang Theory' would watch," Penn said. "I couldn't resist that idea, so I packed up my yurt and hailed the next dirigible out. At the same time, Chuck sent an expedition to locate Bill Prady, who had been frozen with his shield across his chest in a block of arctic ice." "The team assembled, we set out to make this insane show, which lives in a universe created by Chuck and Bill. I couldn't be more honored to be working with these amazing people." Prady incorporated fewer stories about vision quests in his own statement, saying, "The process of writing this show with Chuck and Zak has been damn fun, and I'm certain that joy will come through the screen." "Putting characters we loved from 'The Big Bang Theory' into a complex science fiction story with the kind of mythology that those characters love while maintaining the comedic elements is incredibly satisfying."

The multiverse comes for sitcoms.
Posted Jul 9, 2025 at 7:29 PM UTC The multiverse comes for sitcoms. The Big Bang Theory is getting another spinoff, but this one is a bit weirder. It's called Stuart Fails to Save the Universe , and here's the set-up: 'comic book store owner Stuart Bloom is tasked with restoring reality after he breaks a device built by Sheldon and Leonard, accidentally bringing about a multiverse Armageddon.' Which means there will be familiar characters... from an alternate universe. No word yet on when the series will premiere.

Whyte Avenue Art Walk celebrates 30 years: bigger, bolder than ever before
Article content It was the summer of 1996, a twitchy time — with Rage Against the Machine's Evil Empire a frequent flyer on CJSR, the goofy Independence Day exploding at the box office, and Dolly the cloned sheep having us wondering how soon we'd see multiple copies of ourselves walking around. Article content But over in Old Strathcona, 24-year-old local artist Ian Sheldon set up his first-ever booth at the second annual Whyte Avenue Art Walk — brainchild of The Paint Spot's Kim Fjorbotten. Article content 'I missed one year, the year my dad died, right before,' Sheldon says. 'But otherwise, yeah, 29 years — not counting the pandemic break, of course.' Article content For years now at the annual sidewalk and park sprawler, which turns Old Strathcona into a gigantic, non-curated art fair, Sheldon's booth sits inside a cluster of 15 or so longtime vendors at the fest's core in Dr. Wilbert Mcintyre (Gazebo) Park. Article content 'I moved to the park from Whyte Avenue a long time ago,' he explains, 'and I kept telling them, 'You gotta come!' Article content 'And they were like, 'No, no, no — it's not on the avenue with all the people.' And then they moved over,' he laughs, 'and were like, 'Wow! Why didn't we come earlier?'' Article content There's absolutely a gonzo appeal to the front-facing 82 Avenue bustle: a wild, kaleidoscopic slideshow of tens of thousands of random creative impulses pulsing as you walk by the activated street. Article content Article content But at 53, Sheldon would rather not compete with the permanent stores and yelpers spilling out of the bars onto those singalong keg cycles. Article content Article content 'In the park, people are super civilized,' he says, 'and they're there to enjoy the event specifically.' Article content Now, if you've ever been down, you'll likely recognize storm-chaser Sheldon's big oil paintings. Rainclouds letting loose in the distance, often over canola fields, it's a wash of familiarity within which you can almost feel the wind hitting as the air pressure changes. Roadside nirvana. Article content The artist has a degree in zoology, a master's in protected areas and wildlife management, which, in terms of his art, 'told me how to be experimental in my approach and learn fast.' Article content 'So summer is my storm chasing season. Any chance of a road trip — a field trip, a business trip — I just hope for really good weather.
