Simple.

During sex, the butthole is either visible, in the near vicinity or the active target of stimulation.

Basically the only times you generally actually see a butthole (in general people) is when your genitals are swollen.

So see butthole, remember sexy times unconsciously.

Or not. But it sounds like something that would come out of a marketing department.

This reads like an alien trying to explain why humans like buttholes.

[–] Gormadt@slrpnk.net 12 points 2 hours ago

Because they constantly spew bullshit?

It's a shit service.

Mind of the beholder?

I'm reminded of a college Art History prof who thought every ancient image or object that was round represented Mother Earth, and anything long was phallic. Nevermind that these were the same people who figured out agriculture, medicine, fermentation, engineering, laws... [all the things the Romans did for us besides Nothing]... but somehow they were only capable of two artistic concepts.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I cannot stand people like that professor, like anytime there's 3 of something it must be because the artist is deeply Christian and trying to evoke the holy trinity.

Or maybe they bought a four pack of apples or bananas and ate one before doing the still life! Not everything has to have some deep meaning, sometimes people just paint shit Mrs. Foxtrot!

Triple symbolism is practically everywhere both before and after the rise of Christianity. The most notable example I can think of is the Valknut from Norse culture.

It's because it's all just ass tricks

[–] Vespair@lemmy.zip 13 points 4 hours ago

Because the assholes ruining the whole world genuinely think it's funny to do shit like that right in our faces, let's be honest

They're showing you where their product comes from.

Because a dick is too obvious:

Technically anus translates from Latin to old people so "from many old people" is still accurate

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 77 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

Because that's who runs them. A butthole.

And because it perfectly illustrates what value AI brings. Because the only thing that comes from it is shit.

[–] brem@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

I agree, but you can also fart from a butthole (which is funny) & some people have sex with them.

Nobody is fucking Sam and co. & they are not funny.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 63 points 6 hours ago

There should be a product which removes AI from programs. It's logo could be toilet paper, because it wipes away the shit.

All those folks worrying about population decline should be thrilled

Trans men can already become pregnant and usually require significantly less water and electric power to accomplish it, though 🤷🏻

A reminder to all trans men to drink water rights now.

[–] EvergreenGuru@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Thanks for the trans inclusivity. I hate it when people claim that only women can get pregnant.

Still, I know many trans women that would love the chance to become pregnant. What if AI is their only chance?

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 9 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

What if AI is their only chance?

One could always drop coins into a wishing well, which has about as much chance as AI of solving this particular problem.

[–] grte@lemmy.ca 32 points 6 hours ago

Whatever the visual equivalent of nominative determinism is, I suppose.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Because they are full of shit

Representation of their CEOs

[–] ParlimentOfDoom@piefed.zip 12 points 6 hours ago

E pluribus anum

[–] RumAndCreole@lemmy.world 8 points 6 hours ago

To symbolize their desire to assfuck all the workers they can cut from payrolls.

[–] AnalogRegression@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Saturn 🪐 based buttholes. Grok is literally a Saturn symbol.

[–] very_well_lost@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Grok's logo is a black hole.

Emphasis on hole.
