Strange Famous

There must be equal cause for this as the other thread.

For example, the other night (Friday) I was riding home on the bus and absently thinking of my girlfriend and how she looked the last time I saw her, the shape of her hips, the skin betwen her shoulder and her neck, etc... I found myself suddenly aware of a throbbing erection about 5 mins from when I had to get off the bus

In such cases, what images do you summon to calm things down?

_

For myself, I tried to visualise an old man standing naked, a butchered animal, and a disgusting scene I was shown from the movie "Hostel" and within 1 minute the problem was gone

Any of those. I use the same trick to a lesser degree to keep going during sex as well. If I feel like I'm going to blow too early, I think of mildly unsexual things to stave off ejaculation, and then keep going.

The catch is not to think of other things for too long, or you lose your bone

EW. Man, seriously? That's like nuking your city because you found a roach in your house

The thought of being arrested, thrown in jail for indecent exposure and subsequently gang raped due to my irresistibly good looks is usually more than enough to kill an untimely erection.

It wouldn't be indecent if you'd wear pants under that trench coat, Manic.

Well when you take into account the fact that guys are being locked up and charged as sex offenders for taking a leak in public - it's not much of a stretch. Hell, I wouldn't even publicly pocket a snickers bar let alone unabashedly brandish an erection in public.

Nothing. There is NOTHING that can bring my dick down. Lack of action can do that to you.

Things I learned in HS when hormones caused them constantly:

1) Take a piss. You'll have to do the superman (leaning hard forward with your hand against the wall), but you quickly lose it after the piss
2) Thinking about Football Plays / Wrestling Moves. I was a bit of a jock, so the easy fallback non-sexual fallback was to go over plays/moves.
3) Witnessing anyone taking a shot to the nuts. Seriously... makes my little guy hide in self defense.

I find ejaculation almost always has a definite softening effect on me

could there be a correlation between man's quest to control the world with the inability to control his own penis...I wonder...

I resent the insinuation I have no control over my penis. In fact, I have absolute control... for about 20 minutes "after"

StrangeFamous was on a bus - I *think* this is an unlikely scenario in his predicament.

I think about a woman I used to work with that reminded me of Little Miss Piggy. She had the most annoying voice, it always sounded like she was baby talking. I just imagine her talking dirty with that awful voice, kills the boner everytime.

I read this thread yesterday, but had to consider it for a while before responding. I have never felt the need to bring an erection down. I think that's because I wear bikini briefs, which work as a "seat-belt". No one else has to know about it.

I know, and same direction. Just happens. Not so much now that I'm approaching mid 30s, but still. It's slightly curved rather than a straight rod, which makes it more noticeable as well.

Considering the tenacity of cockroaches re: nuclear holocaust, what you are saying is thinking of Margaret Thatcher doesn't work at all...
