An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Resorption in a front tooth. Had it extracted and now there's a fancy titanium drywall anchor grafted into my skull. A few weeks of healing and then I'll have a false tooth bolted in.

I do. My remaining real teeth are in excellent health, no cavities, no fillings. This tooth basically ate itself from the inside out because cosmic rays flipped a register on the CPU. I asked my dentist how to prevent this and his reply was "You don't." We do not have a testable hypothesis as to why my tooth hollowed itself out. A little over a year ago, a routine X-ray showed a little shadow in that tooth so I was told to be careful biting into apples and such. This December we took another X-ray and again they mentioned how dark it was, I said "Yeah since last time I've been careful when biting into apples and carrots" and the hygienist said "NOPE! None of that anymore!" I've been on a no biting things diet for a couple months now, eating pizza with a knife and fork, and I've been eating soup, oatmeal and Slimfast for a week now and I want a fucking steak.
