Not Pounded By Anything: Six Platonic Tales Of Non-Sexual Encounters by Chuck Tingle

funny lighthearted fast-paced

3.5

This was iconic and so much fun! It was interesting, though, reading so many tinglers back to back in this way. I’ve gotten used to the format where the deranged story is first, and it’s then followed by a slightly less deranged story that often shows off a bit more of Chuck Tingle’s writing ability.

Still. My favorite in this collection for sure has to be “Dressed Up Handsome and Not Pounded Because Cosplay is not Consent.” Though I must admit the ending was a lil sad for me 😩 Didn’t need the twist with his bestie. 

Another one I really liked was “Not Pounded By the Physical Manifestation of my Need to Please Everyone Because Sometimes It’s Okay to Give Back to Yourself.” This one had none or close to none of the quasi-sexual engagement in either eating or outdoor activities 😂 It was still chaos because we’re talking about Chuck Tingle here, but it was a lot more focused in on this stressed out guy and how he just needed to chill. 

All in all, I have no regrets and I’m forever thankful to my friend Daniel who enables this chaos to return to my life 🙏🏻 He’s a real one
