I- I don’t understand. They were doing some sort of Pavlovian dom/sub kink play?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 69 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I believe that's called "puppy play."

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 58 points 2 months ago

possibly pet play or hypnosis but definitely conditioning play

would recommend it's fun

[–] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

either that or hypnotic suggestion

What on earth is "snapping" fingers?

Oh! I've only ever known this as clicking, not snapping.

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 46 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Where are you from?

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 32 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The UK.

What a silly place.

[–] jabathekek@sopuli.xyz 43 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fascinating. My folks are from the Norwich area and they always say snapping. I'm sure it's a regional thing like everything is in the UK lol.

[–] fistac0rpse@fedia.io 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Off topic, but I only know of Norwich from Alan Partridge. Is he well known/liked there?

[–] jabathekek@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

No idea. My fam left probably before he was very well known.

Is that the Firefly pilot?

[–] Ageroth@reddthat.com 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

[–] reptar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Ah darn. I'm trying to remember how to remember.

Alan two dick. Got it

It's when you bend your fingers so far back that the bones snap.
Pretty common in America, rather than the less painful 'clicking' made elsewhere.
