Objects that TAKE your money!

A water pistol shaped like a hoo-ha?! OMG - cool.... can I have one too?

(Preferably without the bank balance-depleting scripts..kthxbye)

I don't sugarcoat or give false hopes, and I am not being a bitch when I say:

You're screwed. You were stupid and there's really not much you can do. Those OK boxes you clicked are contractual agreements to give your lindens to someone else. And you granted access several times which pretty much kills the "oh it was an accident" excuse.

Yes you lost some lindens but you learned a very important lesson.

When that yellow box comes up maybe next time you will pay it more attention rather than the other person's prim butt you're humping.

Live and learn honey.... live and learn.

this thread so delivers.

Yeah, I think it was the fact that the OP clicked yes multiple times that had me saying "DUH - what the hell do you think 'can I take your money' means?"

Sorry, but I have just lost patience and tolerance with people that do not bother to read and understand the things they click yes to in SL - reminds me of people in RL that sign documents without reading them. People really need to start being more responsible for their own actions.

I am just speechless.

I would imagine you could get punched in the eye ... I mean, it sounds so ... so ... icky in a way.

OMG! I was sooo thinking the same thing when I read the OP!

Not to be rude but you (the OP) are screwed...um, yeah, went there and bought the shirt.

Only grant money to devices that come from very trusted sources. I have a fair amount of devices that require this permission (vendors, web-based sales tools, and back in the day, SLBoutique) and even had some friends of mine who refused the permission (I can't say I blame them, it could be implemented in a much better fashion, such as never paying out more than the object has received).

I think that you are all being far too critical and sarcastic and generally marginal. That would baffle me too, I have to say.

I'm not touching the anatomical part of this thread (well, I wouldn't, now would I? ), but really the script involved here is just so incredibly lame: It had to ask for debit permission more than once? I can almost see the superstitious llResetScript() in on_rez(), and just for good measure probably even attach().

I mean, it would be embarrassing enough to be mugged by a script. But by such a spectacularly *incompetent* script?!

Anyway, kids, don't try this at home. When the pretty orange box comes up, Just Say No, 'k?

Really, unless you can read the script source code, don't grant debit permissions to anything from any account holding more than a bare minimum L$ balance. Honestly, how do you know that vendor* manufacturer won't suddenly "turn Ginko" at some point and start draining your account? If you absolutely have to use a script you can't examine, either use an impoverished alt for such permissions, or always remain impoverished yourself and use an alt "banker" for storing any real L$ balance.

______
*Vendors are actually not a good example. There really hasn't been a compelling reason for normal vendor scripts to need to refund L$s for a long, long time. Things that split proceeds--special "commission" vendors, tip jars, etc--do need such permissions.

I have nothing to add but these two words...

"money shot"

Ohhhhh "SQUIRT" - I thought she said "SPURT"
That's different then ... err ... isn't it?

You see I was getting confused. 'Corse I know now. I must read these threads more carefully ...

Not really.

What happens if it gets him in the eye? Could you be sued for immature ejaculation? Actually it could glue his contacts to his eyeball. Talk about "sticky fingers" eh?

ba-da-BUMP! *rimshot*

You don't look at the mantlepiece when you're poking the fire!

Just for the sake of entertainment and not being all misogynistic but...

Money Squirting Vagina that grabs all your money....

I don't see anything wrong with that. It's pretty accurate and real life like so far... Of course it is grabbing the money from the wrong party. Meh I guess we can call that Karma. It's a beatch.

Oh honey, how else do you think those FENDI bags for $4500 get purchased.

You gotta be from the Midlands ...
Lol!
Good one!
But, I still gotta ask this - am I meant to spurt or squirt????? And do I know it if I am???? After all, this is Resident Answers.

No! No!
I'm afraid it will spurt!!

There goes my next visit to the Zabar's Fish Counter. I was planning that as a part of my next NYC visit. THANKS A LOT!

LOL

I think this is an urban myth. (I assume this is not about - uh - "golden showers," and if it is you are very much on your own, kiddo.) I've seen references to sexually aroused women "spurting" or "ejaculating" fluid during passionate moments in a couple of "educational" books of questionable competence and in really poor porn literature. Over the years I've had intimate encounters in RL with a fair number of women of sufficiently assorted race, ethnicity and general appearance to give a broad-based sample, and believe me, I would know if such a thing happened (yes, doubting Thomas, they were definitely aroused). It did not happen. Nor have I run across anyone who has actually witnessed this phenomenon.

(I have heard people mention ladies that "ooze," but trust me, trust me, you really do want to stay away from those!)

When ladies get excited, they secrete; they can even get wet. As far as anyone's real-life experience that I am aware of is concerned, they do not spurt, squirt, "ejaculate" or otherwise carry on like a water pistol.

That was a bum product all around, lady.

Dude, wrong answer!

Lookit guys!

Fluids - they do get generated.
Enclosed space.
Muscles contract.
Call it what you will. Stuff happens.

If you've not noted it, you're (possibly) not doing it right.

Trust me when I say it's not an urban myth, although it doesn't generally occur as frequently as some porn might lead you to believe.
