    Fun fact, the act of putting ginger up someone’s bum was historically used as in torture, however it is now a part of BDSM communities.
    It’s called Figging.

    I’ve never really had the opportunity to mention this random bit of knowledge before, as believe it or not the subject has never come up before. Thanks, RFK. Jr. Sort of.

      I know one I wish I didn’t, about why you can find cannisters of nitric oxide at porn stores. (You get crackers and baloons and you inhale the nitric oxide, laughing gas, we used to do it when tripping and smoking green bud, it would seemingly last a few minutes in those situations and not just 1 minute like the whippets which are an expensive way to do it.

        Poppers is what they call those little black bottles with the caps, which folks in the gay community sniff. Relaxes the bum hole.
        I’ve not ever tried them myself, since I’m a top anyway, however it’s popularly known around gay pubs and the like.
