You probably need to ask someone more intimate.

There was that Conservative MP who died in an asphyxiation game gone wrong, back in the Major years.
And for all that many things about relationships are healthier now than in the past, teenaged boys learning their moves from the internet is not a positive thing.
For years I wondered why he died with an orange his mouth, I then went to university and found the reasons why.
Wh... what did you do at university???
I spent a lot of time with the gay community and the fetish community, plus I also knew a lot of degenerates.
One night the discussion turned to what question do you really want to know the answer to and I asked why that Tory MP died with an orange in his mouth (it had bugged me for four years.)
Several people explained that strangulation enhances orgasms, and when people are masturbating/strangling themselves they put an orange in their mouth so if they are on the verge of passing out/getting strangled they will bite down and the taste of the orange will wake them up to avoid accidentally killing themselves
“ At just 16 years old, she took a job at Mar a Lago, believing she had secured a dream summer position. But that dream quickly morphed into a nightmare when Ghislaine Maxwell preyed upon her…. They trafficked her”

With the new ticket resale rules, would I be able to resell a ticket for face value and charge a ticket finder fee? If so, what’s the point in it?
AFAIK no, you can not. Which is the point.
If you want to resell your ticket you can get the face value back. No fees on top.
So are we also banned from paying someone to find a face value ticket for us?
I assume so, yes. The idea is to get your ticket for face value from the proper channels, and only to resell if you can't then attend, not have touts buying up the tickets and reselling.

"I met a woman named Skylar on Hinge, a dating app, in July 2025, her profile is no longer findable. We had two dates (August 4 and August 16). She claimed to be an au pair in Georgetown. She gave no clues that she was a reporter or recording our dates. Had I a clue, the first date would have ended immediately and there never would have been a second one...."
Just cottoned on that this is all old news (Sept) - doh!

It's the 'nearly half' thing that I don't get.
I've dabbled in some very niche kinks and scenes, which I won't specifically list, but it's stuff that only a tiny fraction of people will ever try.
And yet the strangulation thing simply never ever came up. I was aware of it, but never met a woman, man or indeed t-girl that was into it. And I've 'met' people who were into some seriously weird stuff!
(Breath control in conjunction with edging was about as close as anyone got!)
Is it maybe a very recent thing? My heyday for experimentation was the late 90s and early 00s. Milligan's orange incident was before that, but it certainly wasn't considered normal at the time.

I believe. Not 100%.
This was covered on You and Yours today, I hadn't realised what appalling practices ViaGoGo had been up to. People ringing in to say that the "confirm payment" popup had obscured the invoice amount, when they confirmed, it disappeared to reveal £200+ admin charges and a "Are you happy to proceed?" button that turned out to be a "Survey" question.
Good news if Labour close down this spivvery, there's plenty of this to go after, hopefully they'll eventually get round to umbrella companies.
Seriously, who flipping cares? It's like the endless debate over whether Keir Starmer went to a private school if it changed before he left. It was all a long time ago and it's not like Farage has done nothing objectionable as an adult politician.
It matters because Farage and Reform have denied any of it happened, so it raises questions of truthfulness and trust.
Only amongst his political opponents. It's like that bad report Boris got from Eton about the web of obligations, or David Cameron waving his pork sword at a porcine head. Heck, there was even a story about the infant Thatcher taking an extra chocolate biscuit. No-one cares. Or no-one who matters cares.

I thought it was supposed to be a lemon and he'd substituted an orange and it didn't work as not as sharp a taste.
But this is all from a discussion of the same case at uni and maybe the person chatting about the lemon was talking shit.

The linked to Guardian suggests that this has happened because strangulation has featured increasingly in porn in recent years (though it doesn't put a number to recent). So, if they're right then, yes, it's a recent thing.

I'd hope it matters to plenty of people that a politician can't own his past mistakes, fess up and apologise. For starters it suggests he thinks he has nothing to apologise for.

This seems so far from foolproof as to be almost useless. Surely it would be more likely if you were on the verge of losing consciousness that the orange would just fall out of your mouth? And when people gather urgently around an unconscious sportsman or fainted patient in hospital, it's never with a cry of 'bring the orange juice'?
Not half of young people but a very significant proportion of young women. Women - the word which no-one wants to use in case it makes men feel bad even though its use would be factually accurate.
And what's with the WTF anyway.
If men had listened to what women, including those pesky feminists, have been saying for some time they would know that - (a) this has been going on for a while (b) it is largely fuelled by porn (c) some sex education in schools has emphasised the importance of getting consent before seeking to choke someone during sex, which rather misses the point I feel. There is no safe way of choking someone. It is associated with a range of health risks. A lot of women do not like it but feel they ought to go along with it. (d) Non-fatal strangulation or choking has been a criminal offence since 2022. (e) Strangulation is the second most common method of killing women by men. (f) It has been announced this month that pornography showing strangulation is to become a criminal offence with tech companies placed under an obligation to prevent users accessing such material.

It also means he's unlikely to admit to any mistakes made while in office as PM, which means the usual informal means by which democratic pressure is exerted on the executive won't function as well with him as PM.

It alls sounds like dodgy bollocks to me.
I had the misfortune to faint (reflex syncope) for the first time in my life recently (due to causes now happily identified and addressed). As far as I can tell my body just went completely limp as I passed out - there was no way I was biting on anything, let alone tasting it and waking up as a result.

That’s somewhat, err, concerning.
So men and women in adult movies are acting out strangulation for pleasure, and young adults who don’t know any better are doing it on each other, with mostly women on the receiving end?

Perhaps develop a spine and stand up and point out they don’t do too badly all things considered.
Not all of them are entitled whiners like the WASPI lot.
I think the issue is the admin nightmare which will ensue once the standard state pension is above the personal allowance.
The issue arises because DWP appear to have no way of deducting PAYE, so for those with no other income apart from the state pension all HMRC can do is issue tax demands, which will cause immense confusion for many pensioners. (For those with other income, HMRC can pass the PAYE collection onto the other income provide by weighting the recipient's tax code.)
Ah, right, that wasn’t made clear.
1. Perhaps they could simply collect the tax for people with private pensions through a reduced tax code ?
They do it to recoup tax owed, it’s happened to me.
2. Doesn’t do anything for the tax liability for those with no private pension.
3. Other than that I don’t know but they cannot have the working people penalised with limits not moving while pensioners avoid the freeze on the state pension.
I added numbers to simplify my response:
1. They do. 2. That's my point, that's the issue. 3. I agree, but no one's asked me to be CoE yet.
3 - There’s a vacancy shortly. Stop building your house and polish up your CV.

Yes - the pleasure is for men. Not women. And it is often associated with coercive control within abusive relationships.
This is one of the saddest thing I've ever read on PB, not including deaths. Choking is dangerous and not erotic either to the strangler or enstrangled, it's nasty, a waste of time and makes ugly what should be beautiful. Plus it has a high chance of death or serious life-changing damage. Urgh, horrid.
It’s not only in a relationship. For example Michael Hutchence and David Carradine died from the proverbial ‘stranglewank’ as did a Tory MP, Stephen Milligan.
God knows why the attraction. Can’t see it myself.
Wait, have I been doing sex wrong all this time?!?
You probably need to ask someone more intimate.
If only we had an expert on kinky sex and the internet as a member of the PB community...
There was that Conservative MP who died in an asphyxiation game gone wrong, back in the Major years.
And for all that many things about relationships are healthier now than in the past, teenaged boys learning their moves from the internet is not a positive thing.
For years I wondered why he died with an orange his mouth, I then went to university and found the reasons why.
Wh... what did you do at university???
I spent a lot of time with the gay community and the fetish community, plus I also knew a lot of degenerates.
One night the discussion turned to what question do you really want to know the answer to and I asked why that Tory MP died with an orange in his mouth (it had bugged me for four years.)
Several people explained that strangulation enhances orgasms, and when people are masturbating/strangling themselves they put an orange in their mouth so if they are on the verge of passing out/getting strangled they will bite down and the taste of the orange will wake them up to avoid accidentally killing themselves
I learn something new every day on PB. This one I will never un-learn!

I thought it was supposed to be a lemon and he'd substituted an orange and it didn't work as not as sharp a taste.
But this is all from a discussion of the same case at uni and maybe the person chatting about the lemon was talking shit.
It was an orange, not a lemon, and not a satsuma, as Auberon Waugh alleged.

Yeah, I remember reading (possibly in a book about the Nuremberg trials) that when someone is executed by being hung they involuntarily ‘nut’, to use the language of the streets, in their Y-Fronts.

Not half of young people but a very significant proportion of young women. Women - the word which no-one wants to use in case it makes men feel bad even though its use would be factually accurate.
And what's with the WTF anyway.
If men had listened to what women, including those pesky feminists, have been saying for some time they would know that - (a) this has been going on for a while (b) it is largely fuelled by porn (c) some sex education in schools has emphasised the importance of getting consent before seeking to choke someone during sex, which rather misses the point I feel. There is no safe way of choking someone. It is associated with a range of health risks. A lot of women do not like it but feel they ought to go along with it. (d) Non-fatal strangulation or choking has been a criminal offence since 2022. (e) Strangulation is the second most common method of killing women by men. (f) It has been announced this month that pornography showing strangulation is to become a criminal offence with tech companies placed under an obligation to prevent users accessing such material.
I was aware of the practice, as it's been reported (fairly regularly) before. It was the sheer numbers which surprised me.

Me too, I assumed it was fairly niche. I know no one who has ever discussed partaking in it. Maybe it’s something you’d be embarrassed about or a modern phenomenon with the young.
I’m amazed it took so long to get around to banning violent porn.

If you want to resell your ticket you can get the face value back. No fees on top.
I believe. Not 100%.
Asking for a friend.
It's the 'nearly half' thing that I don't get.
I've dabbled in some very niche kinks and scenes, which I won't specifically list, but it's stuff that only a tiny fraction of people will ever try.
And yet the strangulation thing simply never ever came up. I was aware of it, but never met a woman, man or indeed t-girl that was into it. And I've 'met' people who were into some seriously weird stuff!
(Breath control in conjunction with edging was about as close as anyone got!)
Is it maybe a very recent thing? My heyday for experimentation was the late 90s and early 00s. Milligan's orange incident was before that, but it certainly wasn't considered normal at the time.
People ringing in to say that the "confirm payment" popup had obscured the invoice amount, when they confirmed, it disappeared to reveal £200+ admin charges and a "Are you happy to proceed?" button that turned out to be a "Survey" question.
Good news if Labour close down this spivvery, there's plenty of this to go after, hopefully they'll eventually get round to umbrella companies.
To the extent that those of us with pastoral duties towards our youth are expected to keep an half an ear out for rumours of it amongst our charges.

I had the misfortune to faint (reflex syncope) for the first time in my life recently (due to causes now happily identified and addressed). As far as I can tell my body just went completely limp as I passed out - there was no way I was biting on anything, let alone tasting it and waking up as a result.
Still, what do I know?
Maybe file under 'don't try this at home'...
So men and women in adult movies are acting out strangulation for pleasure, and young adults who don’t know any better are doing it on each other, with mostly women on the receiving end?

Stephen Milligan was a true Orangeman.
Not sure if it is true or an urban myth.
It was the sheer numbers which surprised me.
