Thank you, I got a good laugh out of that.

My experience was probably exactly as intended. Click on the "What is a dickover?" link trying to come up with things that it might be. And a brief moment after the page loaded (this little pause is crucial) I am hit in the face with a big annoying popup saying "This is a Dickover" followed by immediate understanding.

Now at least I know what to call it the next time I visit Substack.



I was afraid it would be a new kind of henway.


I actually had a similar thought - something along the lines of this gag from Spies Like Us

At least you didn't get misgendered like Zack Mama (aka Monica).

Woooah “henway” gives me flashbacks to the Castle of Dr Brain in the early 90s


...You thought a dickover would be about three pounds?


You didn't immediately realize it was someone making up nonsense for clicks?
