My kinda' crowd, but I have a few questions...

Say hello to my workstation. It has a habit of getting cluttered at times, but I somehow manage to get things done. The Boba Fett paraphernalia keeps me going. Actually I don't think I mentioned the plush I got from Jacob; that's the big Boba Fett head if you look carefully. I have to keep a stack of paper right in front of me at all times so I can make notes about random things. Or doodle graffiti. Both are imperative to my creative process. Also Booze.


But I digress. The matter at hand for today's post!

Craiglist to replace 'blatant internet brothel'

Craigslist will replace its controversial online "erotic services" listings with a section where ads are individually checked by Craigslist employees before they are posted, according to Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal. Blumenthal said, "I was informed by Craigslist late last night that it will eliminate the 'erotic services' section within seven days, create a new section called 'adult services' and manually review every ad posted there to bar flagrant prostitution and pornography."

I'm sure most of you have been on Craigslist for one reason or another at some point. And if you spend hours perusing the internet for laughs like I do, you're bound to end up browsing the personals and 'erotic service' ads on there. Seriously, some of this shit is pretty ridiculous. But that's not my point.

I was confused when I read this article a few days ago, because I just didn't understand what the big change being made was. Aside from heightened moderation, they're really only changing terminology. Specifically "Erotic Services" to "Adult Services." Does this really mean anything, though? I mean, whether you call them Adult or Erotic Services, I'm still going to end up thinking about the same things; IE: A Bismarck, Cajun Hot Stick, Chili Dog, Dirty Sanchez, Flaming Amazon (look this one up, it's a personal favorite), Jelly Donut, or a Rusty Trombone. Some filthy fuck (like myself) wants to get it on in a weird and disgusting way and he's sure to find the answer to his prayers on Craigslist if he looks long enough.

There's just no denying that no matter how much moderation and name changing they might implement, you'll still be able to find someone in your city that's willing to take part in some of these pleasant activities with you. God bless the internet, I say!

On a similar topic, there's a question I've been pondering for quite a few years now:

What kind of community do you have to be a part of to get invited to a gang bang? I don't mean this rhetorically, I seriously want to know where and when these things happen. I mean, they're not a myth, are they? It's not just something that happens in pornos, is it? Surely not in this degenerate day and age! Somewhere out there, someone is planning, organizing and sending out invitations for a gang bang, people. And the fact that I'm not invited is really disconcerting. Is it so much to ask for? I have a dream, my friends. I have a dream that one day I'll receive an email that says "Dear Mr. Brown, you are cordially invited to Fuck Fest 2000 whatever, and it would be our greatest pleasure if you could attend." Is that so much to ask for?

Maybe they're being subtle and inviting in disguise? Some time ago Jacob informed me of Cuddle Parties, and obviously the first thing that came to my debauched mind was that perhaps this is a clever ruse for a gang bang? I mean really, Cuddle Parties? Don't get me wrong, I'm a cuddle fan myself. But to think that there is an organization that specifically plans parties where large groups of strangers get together and cuddle with each other is mildly preposterous-to the say the least. And what's the betting that one of these shindigs won't end up turning in to a gang bang? It seems inevitable to me. All that closeness and rubbing up? I'm telling you, one of these guys is gonna' get a chubby and probably say "Hey it's getting a little hot in here...", and the next thing you know they're all playing "Who's in my mouth?"

I just want to make friends, really. And if it happens to be in a sexy, sweaty and naked environment, all the better!
