If someone replied to a topic with *FapFapFap*, would you know what it referenced?

As much as I try, I can’t imagine masturbation making that kind of sound unless the guy has a big, floppy foreskin. Ick.

Now this is what masturbation sounds like (minus the musical intro): PAC MAN WAKA WAKA - YouTube

It was new to me. But then, I’m always the last to know about Internet memes. Maybe that’s because I don’t go to most of those websites that are notorious for spreading them, e.g. Fark.

Yeah, I’ll be in my bunk…

fapping like a mother…

:wink:

Back in the 80s in NZ it we used strop/stropper in a similar onomatopoeic sense (as opposed to throwing a strop/stroppy for a tantrum). I never quite got it myself - those slappy noises are usually indications of non-solo activities, if you know what I mean.

Don Martin syndrome.

Lol! I know :wink: but i always wondered what the female version was. flap flap flap?

I’ve known that “phrase” for at least a decade (funky internet sites even back then), which makes driving by this Auto-Import/Processing sitein Newark NJ sort of bizarre ever since (they used to have “Burma-shave”* style signs stuck in the fencing along Port Street, I think ending in “FAPS cares!”. Also, holiday decorations like Turkeys, Pumpkins, Presidents etc suitable to the season).
*Yeah, well Kids today can watch classic Popeye, Bugs Bunny, & Road Runner cartoons on YouTube, so they darn-well know what those were.

If you’ve seen it with any context applied at all, I’d think it should have been obvious. At least, that’s how I figured it out on the forum which must not be named.

When you said referenced, I at first thought you meant some movie or meme that used it first.

Too much time on Demotivational posters. :stuck_out_tongue:

Words With Friends With Benefits?

Of course :wink:

Yeah, but…I’ve always wondered why people needed to specify firing a barrage Fuel Air Projectile (A backronym, truth be told, for “ФАП”—the actual original Russian term is slightly different, although it describes the same mechanism) from an SPG-9 recoilless launcher, using the authentic old-style Red Army fire support call, towards something they, from the context, seemed to find sexy.

I’m guessing it originated as an in-joke from a wargamer or military historian forum (the members of which are, typically, notoriously embittered against the overzealous political and “vice suppression” of the former USSR), and spread memetically from there.

:smiley:

So when Wolverine does it, is it snikt snikt snikt?

(God, there’s like two or three levels of horrible implications waiting behind that sound effect. :eek: )

Surprised it took 32 posts.

We were leaving it just for you.

I have to bring SOMETHING to the board, right?

In my case it’s more of a “bleargh”.
