I just want to take a second and appreciate the first original question on this sub in a few good months.

[–]Buckus93 4610 points4611 points  (66 children)

Follow up question: What's the sexiest sex you ever sexed?

[–]deliciouspie 1207 points1208 points  (5 children)

Aaaaand we're back.

[–]vege12 419 points420 points  (30 children)

That one time I had sex!

[–]Buckus93 99 points100 points  (23 children)

Just the one time?

[–]vege12 86 points87 points  (16 children)

Yeah but I have no witnesses or film to prove it.

[–]Dgaetan 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Doesn't matter, had sex.

            Dolly Parton.

            Her reading program is crazy wonderful. She gives away millions of dollars quietly to Ozark and other southern children charities. Her donations to music schools are legendary. Animal charities worship her. Her kindness and humbleness towards fans is genuine.

            Edit: Well, this answer blew up! Thanks for the award!

            [–]fromtheGo 864 points865 points  (12 children)

            She has single handedly made Sevier County, where she grew up, into a better place. Every kid who goes to college from the county gets a scholarship from Dolly.

            I came here today because I promised you tuition and tuition is very valuable. But you know what's invaluable, is intuition. You know what that is? That is the ability to know when something is about to happen. Does anybody out there have intuition? Know what's going to happen next? Nobody? OK, you're going to make me say it...

                [–]Silveri50 156 points157 points  (25 children)

                If there were a scandal about her being cruel or turning out to be crazy in some way, the threshold that it would take for me to turn on her would have to be near Epstein level. She's just done too much good. For nothing else as far as I can tell then warm fuzzies and because she could.

                There is a joke about about how if you read that Tom Hanks punched a nun, your first question would be what the hell did that nun do to Tom? Same applies to Dolly.

                  When the record companies weren’t interested in having her make a new record, she financed a new album (Backwoods Barbie). In an interview, she stated she (of course) would have loved the record to go gold or platinum but was more interested in making the record for her fans and getting her music in recorded from and not just in paper.

                  She said she lost money on the record but didn’t regret it, because making music and records are in her blood and are a part of her…she no longer makes music to make a living but lives to make music.

                  [–]Jacjacsharkattack 103 points104 points  (5 children)

                  I worked for her during this time. It was just 6 of us in a tiny office running her new record label, touring support, radio promotion etc. It was all hands on deck. I even helped PA the photoshoot for the album and was her stand in for all the test shots for the album art. At the end of the day, I got pulled in to be on the music video (“Better Get To Livin’”). Lot of cool memories from that time.

                  Also, I hope her employees get paid better now.

                  I had a family member who used to sing in the gospel quartet at Dollywood 15-20 years ago and I had the chance to meet Dolly several times when we visited. She’s a literal angel and the nicest person I know outside of my Nana

                  [–]Hazelsmom64 47 points48 points  (0 children)

                  That's so great to hear. It's nice to know that what you hear for gossip is true. Dolly just seems to be so genuine. A good person with a big heart ❤️.

                    I grew up in the Deep South in the 80s. When I was little, so many of the women I knew who considered themselves "good Christians" would sometimes tell us that we didn't want to grow up to be like Dolly, because big boobs make you less of a person in their god's eyes or something.

                    We should all be so lucky that more kids grow up to be like Dolly. She and Mr Rogers are in a class of their own when it comes to making the world a better place with their kindness and gentleness.

                    This is an example of an affluent and kind person.

                    Still looks after themselves and is secure for life and gives away everything they don't need.

                      I have to be honest. Our teenager had a baby and neglected him so my husband and I took him in at 3 months of age. I signed up our Grandson for the Dolly Parton Imagination library and it is incredible. We receive one book every month for our little guy and he loves them. I read to him every night regardless but he absolutely adores the books we receive every month. This program is great and Dolly Parton is amazing. What a human. (I am a 43 year old Grandma...lol).

                      [–]Morvictus 13 points14 points  (1 child)

                      That sounds like an incredibly tough situation but you sound like you're trying to make the best of it. I'm a 34 year old with a one-year old son and I couldn't bear the thought of my sweet boy being neglected. I'm glad that your grandson is getting the love that he needs even if it's not from the person he deserves it from.

                      Edit: Just realizing I implied that children don't deserve love from their grandparents and that is not at all what I meant. What I'm trying to say is that I love that you're stepping up for your grandson.

                      I have three kids of my own. 9, 11 and 18. So to have the 18 year old (she had the baby at 16), it has been a challenge to say the least. My daughter was forced to leave by Children's services and we got the baby in the same day so I went through a strange period of loss then gain. I am still conflicted on some days. On the other days, I feel joy. This little guy (now almost 2) has melded into the rest of my family. We have 4 generations living in our house. My Mom had to move in because of a heart condition and now my father in law lives with us too. We have a full house but it is one of love. Thanks for all of the upvotes everyone.

                        Not just in the US. I'm British & while we don't know as much about her, I've never heard anyone here say anything but good things about her.

                        She has an international reputation for being a solidly decent human being with no side to her.

                            Dolly Parton. I think there's data that shows she has the best like/dislike ratio of any star.

                            [–]facelesswolf_ 610 points611 points  (6 children)

                            It might be a super specific and petty thing, but what put Dolly Parton on my radar is the fact that she played a song at the 2022 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with essentially a cheap ass guitar. Literally an entry level guitar priced at 99$ new (Mitchell MM100), just sparkled up with gems to look nicer. It’s a niche thing to know, but she gives a good example here to aspiring musicians that you don’t need super expensive gear to play at gigs. Apparently it’s not the first time she’s done this.

                            [–]sourdoughbreadlover 302 points303 points  (0 children)

                            It's expensive to look that cheap to paraphrase Dolly.

                            Right?! She knows how to flow the music through her; any instrument can get the job done when the rhythm already lives inside.

                                  We are part of her book club.

                                  If you have a young child, you can join her book club for free and they send you one book every month. Some of the books we receive are some of my sons favorites. Highly recommended for parents.

                                  Edit ince that has crazy attention:

                                  Dolly Parton's Imagination Library https://imaginationlibrary.com/

                                  If it is not available in your area, contact your local library.

                                  Many churches have book drives that will supply you with books as well.

                                  Nurture your child! Reading books even when they don't understand is still an amazing way to bond.

                                  If the books are no longer used or wanted please consider donating them to other charities who can pass them along

                                        You can't join it everywhere just as a caveat. It's mostly geared towards rural communities that have less than stellar library access.

                                        Just warning folks if you live in a well served city, you'll probably get a no on the website about joining.

                                        They tend to not do places that have a good library system so not to be snarky but they probably have a place to get books where they are.

                                        Also just want to point out public libraries are great, they'll order books for you to loan out!

She didn't get where she got by luck that woman knew as to what she's doing. Her book scheme has reached literally millions of kids.

                                              If Dolly had a child with Keanu I believe it would be the Kwisatz Haderach of kindness.

                                              I guess "Fear is the mind killer" could still work in that situation as well.

                                                  She is better than Keanu Reeves. Keanu is a nice dude but Dolly Parton is what I wish most multimillionaire would be. Imagine if Elon Musk was like Dolly Parton and actually helping multiple charities and pushes to improve the education of children.

                                                  If Elon Musk had even half the empathy of Dolly Parton then we might well be living in a utopia.

                                                                But then I saw it was The Oatmeal and was relieved.

                                                                And then I realized it was The Oatmeal and was worried again.

                                                                Then the comic loaded, and everything was right in the world.

                                                                      I know one person who dislikes Keanu: Matthew Perry.

                                                                      https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/pictures/matthew-perrys-history-with-keanu-reeves-explained/

                                                                      In the memoir, which Perry released in November 2022, the Friends alum seemingly threw shade at Reeves. “River [Phoenix] was a beautiful man inside and out — too beautiful for this world, it turned out. It always seems to be the really talented guys who go down. Why is it that the original thinkers like River Phoenix and Heath Ledger die, but Keanu Reeves still walks among us?” he wrote while addressing the death of their mutual friend.

                                                                      The Canada native’s name resurfaced again when Perry discussed Chris Farley’s December 1997 death, adding, “I punched a hole through Jennifer Aniston’s dressing room wall when I found out [about Farley’s death]. Keanu Reeves walks among us.”

                                                                      Damn, those quotes are something else.

But in the context of the book those quotes felt so mean-spirited. It completely took me out of the narrative of the rest of the book to wonder why this guy hated Keanu Reeves so much.

                                                                      [–]elunomagnifico 79 points80 points  (4 children)

                                                                      I don't know anyone who even likes Matthew Perry.

They both should have a coin and a dollar bill and a stamp and a holiday for those two. They seriously are people that we all need to try to be like especially the people that have extra money.

Not really critically relevant even though she has an Oscar. I don’t know anything about her off camera though.

I listened to a podcast episode on Howard Stern where she was the guest she told this story of her family and her fleeing Soviet Ukraine when she was 7. Her parents didn't tell her they were moving to America because they were nervous she would tell a neighbour and get them caught.

                                                                                                        [–]CapriItalia 68 points69 points  (0 children)

                                                                                                                  Keanu went through such terrible and heartbreaking personal losses that changed him from a bubbly, light-hearted, nice young man into the selfless, kind, humble, introvert, very much grounded man we know and love.

                                                                                                                  He had to deal with deep sorrow and cruel grieves at a young age, right after he started to be successful.

                                                                                                                  He was never the same after those tragedies, and I think, those prevented him from following the easy, shallow path that often comes with fame and money.

                                                                                                                    I'm not sure, honestly. And that's not because they're not out there. It's because they've likely been being a great person quietly all this time, and it hasn't been covered like Keanu has.

                                                                                                                    Keanu is a special kind of human, so much hurt and pain over the years and still incredibly humble and kind.

                                                                                                                    There are a ton of other people of both genders, actors or not, that are likely up there with how wholesome and kind Keanu is. They've just successfully flown under the radar thus far if they're at the same level as Keanu.

                                                                                                                    The biggest takeaway from the answers I see here is that we all know at least a few people that are wonderful people and fantastic role models. We could all stand to be more like Keanu, and the others mentioned here. Just aim to be a better person than you were yesterday. Try to do something small and thoughtful when you can, even as simple as holding a door for someone and wishing then a good day.
