People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

Same in French.

The expression is in fact "I beat my balls of it" (and not with it), which is built on the same sentence construction as multiple ways of saying you don't care of varying rudeness: I <do something to myself> of it.

The other commonly use verbs that are so French specific they are hard to translate in themselves (foutre, ficher).
