Hopefully, you've all experienced the toe-curling, spine-tingling pleasure sensations of an orgasm. If not, what are you waiting for? Go and get yourself someone who can give it to you! But meanwhile, other things in life can arguably give us just as much satisfaction as an orgasm, albeit in a slightly different way. From getting a great head massage to letting out a big ol' fart, Redditors reveal things that they believe feel better than an orgasm, and I'm relating to so many of them. What's your guilty, non-sexual orgasmic pleasure?

Famous quotes from movies, philosophers, world leaders, and authors are well-known for a reason; they are (mostly) inspiring, impactful, and smart. Words are powerful. But when you alter the quotes, even just by a little bit, their meanings can change drastically, and their impact can be lost. This was proved by a recent AskReddit thread, which called for people to add "without a penis" onto the ends of famous quotes or movie lines. The results are hilarious and show just how powerful three little words can be.  Here are some of the funniest ones!

As with everything in life, relationships come with risks. Sure, you could fall desperately in love, get married, and live happily ever after. I mean, that's the dream, right? Alternatively, you could fall for someone, and just as you finally feel secure, they dump you in a soul-crushing, heart-wrenching act of cruelty, causing you to lose all faith and hope in love. It's a real gamble. And the truth is, being dumped suck. It can bruise your ego, make you feel rejected, and question whether or not what you had was real for the other person. But some dumpings are more brutal than others, and these Redditers are sharing the harshest reasons their exes ended their relationship. What's the worst reason someone broke up with you? Or that you dumped someone?

An essential aspect of any relationship is communication, without which neither yours nor your partner's needs can be met—at least not in a healthy way. Sometimes it's necessary to say how you feel or what you need explicitly, and other times there are things you do for each other that go without saying. When you know someone so well, you don't always need to express things verbally. Redditors are sharing the unsaid rules between them and their SO that they follow without any questions. The replies show just how important it is to have mutual respect, understanding, and excellent communication to maintain a healthy relationship. What are the unspoken rules you have in your relationship?

Bringing guests into your home is a wonderful thing to do. Although hospitality is somewhat of a skill, it's not that hard to create an environment where your guests feel relaxed and at home. But what happens when they feel a little too comfortable? There's a fine line between feeling at home in someone else's house and being an obnoxious asshole, which is a concept that some people don't quite understand. And those people are idiots. A Reddit thread asking people to share 'the most disrespectful thing a guest ever did at your home' has revealed just how little concern some people have for other's properties, and the responses are pretty shocking! Here are some of the best!

The past six months have been a strange time of adjustment for everyone. Overnight, we had to give up many aspects of our everyday life that we took for granted, such as seeing friends, eating in restaurants, and going to work or school. However, thanks to modern technology, we entered an era where taking classes or work calls from your lounge's comfort became the new normal, and wearing a formal top and pajama pants became the new dress code. But as useful as online classes and meetings have been, they come with certain risks, like all technology. Many people fell victim to forgetting to turn off their cameras and microphones when they thought they had, which led to some pretty awkward situations. Read some of them below, as teachers and students share their best 'forgot to turn off the mic' story during virtual learning stories. Online learning is cool and all, but CHECK YOUR MICS, people!

If your school was anything like mine, you probably didn't get much sex-ed in school. I vaguely remember mine consisting of our biology teacher standing awkwardly at the front of the classroom, pointing to diagrams of the male and female anatomy, clearly wishing the floor would swallow her up. The rest was down to our self- discovery and whatever rumors we heard that week. Some real education about healthy sexual relationships would have been useful because, as a teenager and young adult, you are vulnerable to pressures and expectations. A funny AskReddit thread asking people for the WORST advice you can give a virgin for their first time highlights how damaging the porn industry is on healthy sexual expectations. And, in turn, the amount of misinformation and dangerous messages young people are receiving about sex.

When you go under the knife, you assume that the highly-skilled surgeons know exactly what they're doing once they cut you open. Of course, you hope that the margins for error are minimum and that you will wake up with all your body parts intact, as they should be (unless you're in a Saw movie). But even surgeons encounter "oh shit" moments, and Reddit's surgeons are revealing all their scary experiences where things almost took a drastic turn for the worst. If you have an upcoming surgery, this probably isn't for you.

Students usually remember teachers for one of two reasons: they were either excellent or terrible. The great teachers do more than teach their subject; they believe in their students, give them life skills, and inspire them to be the best versions of themselves. The inadequate teachers do just the opposite and can cause irreparable damage to the confidence and growth of a student who may be struggling. And then you have the teachers who are SO bad that they got fired. Whether it's for sleeping with a student or embezzling school money, there's always one who thinks they'll get away with it. An AskReddit thread has got people sharing the reasons their teachers were fired, and the responses are so shockingly sad, it's a wonder how they even qualified to become teachers in the first place.

Sex is all fun and games until you fart, can't find a condom, or finish too early. Or any of the hundreds of other things that can go wrong and make the moment awkward AF. Redditers have been sharing the awkward parts of sex that no one talks about, and there are so many. Honestly, I've never related so hard to anything in my life. Come on, it's not just me, right?

I know it, you know it, everybody knows it: 2020 has been a strange year. And it's not even finished yet, so god only help us with what's to come. The reality is that kids will be learning about 2020 in history class in the not-too-distant-future, and they'll be asking a lot of questions about what went down. And while we may not have the answers, a 2020 museum might. And no good museum is complete without a gift shop for parents to buy kids a bunch of expensive useless crap they'll break after two minutes and never use again. Redditers hypothesize about what would be on sale at this 2020 museum gift shop, and the answers are both depressing and hilarious at the same time.  

All it takes is waking up on the wrong side of the bed, and your day is ruined. The sky could be blue, and the sun could be shining, but if you wake up in a bad mood, even the smallest thing can set you off, and Redditers are sharing the tiny things ruin their day as soon as it happens. From getting a mosquito bite to realizing there's no more milk left for your cereal, all the small, relatable moments in life that p*ss us all off is here. Scroll down and relate hard!

It's a well-known concept that we are always our own harshest critics — we become self-conscious of things that we think are glaringly obvious to other people, which, in reality, no one notices. Usually, we become more aware of this when we are around members of the opposite sex. Whether it's something about our appearance, our personality, or our actions, the chances are that you have convinced yourself of this "unattractive quality" that doesn't exist. An AskReddit thread challenged women to list the things that they found attractive in men but that men don't find attractive about themselves, and the responses show how little people notice the things that we are self-conscious about.

Whether it's the classic "We need to talk," or seeing a bunch of missed calls from your mom, we all know what would trigger us if we woke up seeing it on our phone screens. A Reddit thread asking people for the worst text message to wake up to has revealed some heart-stopping answers, which I know would send me into full-blown panic mode if I received them. Scroll through and see if any of these (nuclear threat warning aside), trigger you and bring up any bad memories. 

Although there is still some stigma around seeing a marriage counselor with your partner, if things aren't going so well in the relationship, thankfully, this idea is slowly changing. Marriage counseling is becoming normalized, with more and more couples seeking the help of a therapist to assist them in navigating troubles in their marriages. Because let's be honest, marriage isn't always easy and sometimes, we need all the help we can get. But some couples see marriage counselors for the strangest reasons, and now, we have the lowdown from therapists themselves. A Reddit thread asked marriage counselors for the stupidest reason a couple has made an appointment, and the answers prove how some relationships were doomed to fail from the start.

Being a teacher is one of the noblest professions - being underpaid and overworked, to ensure that the next generation gets an education. But it's also a profession that comes complete with its challenges, including dealing with little kids' pettiness. Tattletales are an inevitable part of working with children, but sometimes teachers are presented with simply ridiculous scenarios. A Reddit thread asking teachers for the stupidest reasons a kid has told on someone else will provide you with endless entertainment and make you feel sorry for the teachers who had to mediate the scenarios these kids presented to them. Kids, eh?
