what does "bubbling yourself" mean and cover for? I've not heard of it before. Sounds kind of fun and harmless. I did a search and it seems to refer to the act of putting oneself in a bubble, that is surrounding oneself intentionally in a social network group identity bubble. (A kind of psychological defence method like repression which in the long term isn't good).
What forbidden words does it replace?
- arkh 1y agoIt's used by some for "killing yourself". Not as fun and harmless.
- thinkingemote 1y agoThanks and that search engines are advertising vehicles reinforce your comment! They don't want people to find what people are using that term for. Edits: Oh and the harmless and fun is the disguise!
- Tade0 1y agoGoogle's AI told me it's "looking for or being interested in Pastorelli Yourself Ys Pure Bubble floor tiles". All in all I shouldn't be surprised, considering advertising is Google's business.
- brador 1y agoIt comes from that Wii mario game where in multiplayer you’d jump to death and bubble up and it would auto follow the still living (best) player to finish the level.
- Kon-Peki 1y agoWait, hold on. In that Wii Mario game players could “bubble themselves” to avoid death. And then shake their controller to bring their bubble closer to an active player, who could pop the bubble and turn the “bubbled” player back into an active player. And if all players were “bubbled” then you’d go back to the world selection screen without any player losing a life - you’d only lose any powerups you had. So is this the correct source for the terminology, or did nobody using it actually play the game, or???
