I'm more into pix than vids. Pix are much easier to collect, for a variety of reasons. Do I like paying $30 for a site? Of course, I'd much rather pay a lower price. But using PU/TBP and other sources, you can often get a lower price than what is listed at the site itself. For softcore, the vids offered are usually much less interesting than the pix. For hardcore, the pix are usually much lower in quality than what is offered at the softcore sites, and are barely worth looking at. I personally have not noticed that site prices are on the rise. My impression is that, with discounts, more sites are actually dropping their prices. | |

Just goes to show, there's a bit of fantasy in most porn. Whatever turns you on.... But to get these girls to sign the model releases, you have to realize that porn producers are very tricky/persuasive. | |

PU already has a private message system where members can send emails to each other. To send a private email: 1. Go the the member's page you want to send a message to (by clicking on the hot link of the member's name). 2. Click the "Email [member's name]" hot link. 3. Fill out the subject heading, the message you want to send, check the "I understand Porn Users Staff has the right to review e-mails for rule enforcement purposes.", and then click the "send email" hot link. | |

Back when I could still taste the difference, I thought that Wendys made a better burger than both McDonalds and Burger King. Now that I'm getting older, I seem to be losing my sense of taste. I still go for teenies, which seems to be much more popular than MILFs. But there seem to be plenty of PU folks who are into big boobs and big buns. I don't know if Drooler fits into that category, but he sure seems to appreciate the female posterior (ass, for short). | |

I was pushing a shopping cart around Wal Mart today, and it kept giving me a static shock. First time that ever happened. Made me take out all my items and put them into a different shopping cart. But a squirting sex doll sounds like a fine idea. Help get rid of some of the perverts out there if the manufacturer sets the voltage high enough. | |

Two separate issues being discussed here. 1. Personal dissatisfaction with the porn being offered. 2. The global recession, which includes the world of porn. People go thru phases. It's perfectly normal to vary in your appreciation/satisfaction in porn, the entertainment industry (regular movies, whatever). Finding new sites that have the same impact as sites or material did 10 or 20 years earlier is not easy. That's part of why people are always talking about the "good old days". Porn is a business just like any other. The entertainment industry is really going thru a downturn, not just the adult industry, but the mainstream industry as well. Disney, the billion dollar entertainment conglomerate, actually reported a loss in the DVD segment of their business this last quarter, with dropping sales. So you can blame the lack of quality product in porn for the porn recesssion, but that's really a simplistic answer. Nothing wrong with simplistic answers, but the real world is complicated. Sure, if the producers started offering great quality porn that was fresh and exciting, sales would improve, but we are in a recession (or coming out of one), and people have less money to spend, which is one of the effects of a recession. There are good sites out there that are worth the money. But what strikes your fancy is personal taste. If you go looking for something fresh and different, and you look in many different sites that are less well-viewed, you are going to come across a lot of crap. I spend most of my money on sites that are popular (in PU terms), because I like to play it safe, and hope I will get some satisfaction from the sites I join. | |

I personally think you already have a classy avatar. If you made any changes, the only improvement that I can see would be to make the wolf slightly more visible, and maybe change the color of the moon a bit to make it more realistic. But the idea of a wolf howling at the moon is definitely cool, and fits with the times (vampires and werewolves are definitely in right now). | |

I'm still using Windows XP. I've heard that Windows 7 is supposed to be a big improvement over Vista, but the standard wisdom says that when a new operating system comes along, it's always better to wait and let others go first. Windows XP is good enough for me, until I have to buy a new computer, and there's no big rush on that. | |

tinyteenpass.com is new to me. They offer a 2-day trial to 12 solo teeny sites, which seems like a great deal. Just a guess, but most or all of the sites are no longer updating. But for $1, if you like teenies, it can't get much better than this. When I go to tinyteenpass.com, the billing company I see is EPG Bill, not trpay. If you have doubts this might be a scam, instead of using your regular credit card to pay the $1, use a temporary credit card to pay. That way, you aren't giving out your credit card and personal information to some unknown party over the internet. | |

Watermarks don't have much of an affect on my decision to join a site or not. But I certainly don't appreciate looking at an otherwise lovely picture of a model who has a $@&** watermark covering part of her nude body. Maybe if she was clothed it would be less intrusive? Watermarks, if present, should definitely be small and placed in the lower right corner of the picture. | |

Would you pay to see Megan Fox (the Transformers chick) with hair on her chest? Michael Bay, the director of the Transformers movies, says the actress may suffer unfortunate side effects working under his direction. >>>>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<<< http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/take5-10-05-09.html October 5, 2009 Michael Bay Orders Megan Fox to the Doctor Before 'Transformers 3' Director Michael Bay announced a third "Transformers" movie will be hitting theaters on July 1, 2011 -- and not 2012 as originally thought -- on his web site on Thursday. And he also took the opportunity to further his war of words with his star, Megan Fox, by telling her to consult with a doctor before getting on board. Fox originally drew Bay's ire while promoting this summer's "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," when she said that "working with Michael Bay is not about an acting experience." Bay responded, "She says some very ridiculous things because she's 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do." Most recently, Fox compared Bay to "Napoleon" and said she and costar Shia LaBeouf "almost die when we make a 'Transformers' movie... He has you do some really insane things that insurance would never let you do." In this latest blog post, Bay writes, "Megan Fox, welcome back. I promise no alien robots will harm you in any way during the production of this motion picture." He goes on to say, "Please consult your Physician when working under my direction because some side effects can occur, such as mild dizziness, intense nausea, suicidal tendencies, depression, minor chest hair growth, random internal hemorrhaging and inability to sleep. As some directors may be hazardous to your health, please consult your Doctor to determine if this is right for you." Awww snap! And your comeback Megan? | |

I got a negative trust rating about 2 weeks after I joined PU, from the same Anonymous. I try to regard it as a "stain of honor". But I do think the Anonymous label encourages PU members to give out negative ratings without having to stand behind them. I'm actually surprised there aren't more negative ratings given out by Anonymous. What a wonderful way to dump on people and vent yourself. | |

The movie we've all been waiting for is coming to a neighborhood theater near you July 1, 2011. Transformers 3 will be directed by Michael Bay, the man who brought us such amazing blockbusters as Transformers 1 and 2. Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox are slated to return. The first two films have grossed more than $1.5 billion worldwide. The excitement is starting to build already. Everyone at PU will have to take extra care not to hit their climax before the opening day (premature ejaculation is kind of a letdown). I haven't seen Transformers 2 yet. Is that out on DVD already? Edit01: Transformers 2 will be released on October 20, 2009. I have to see Part 2 before I see Part 3. Edit02: On second thought, probably don't need to see Part 2 before watching Part 3, because the story-line on these movies is completely incidental, and what you're watching for is the crash-bang-boom fights and explosions. Even the eye-candy like Megan Fox is just an afterthought. Edited on Oct 02, 2009, 07:46am | |

I don't think Sharon Tate did any porn. There was talk that Sharon Tate was going to star in the soft-core film "The Story of O". But that might have been just a rumor or story. I do agree that she was a fine-looking woman. | |

Polanski had reached a deal with prosecutors to plead guilty to the sex charge and receive 42 days in prison for psychiatric tests -- time he had already served. But Polanski believed the judge might overrule the plea and sentence him to as much as 50 years in jail. That is why he skipped the U.S. Polanski was initially charged with rape by use of drugs, perversion, sodomy, lewd and lascivious act upon a child under 14, and furnishing a controlled substance (methaqualone) to a minor. These charges were dismissed under the terms of his plea bargain, and he pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of engaging in unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor. Samantha Geimer (the current name of the woman who was raped as a 13-year-old by Polanski) testified that Polanski gave her a combination of champagne and quaaludes, a sedative drug, and "despite her protests, he performed oral sex, intercourse and sodomy on her", each time after being told 'no' and being asked to stop. The District Attorney's office agreed that after serving 42 days in prison for psychiatric tests, that Polanski had received sufficient punishment for the reduced charge of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor. That is what I don't understand. Why would the prosecutors agree to such a minor slap on the wrist for major charges which had the supporting testimony of the minor child who was raped?

http://www.slate.com/id/2229853/?GT1=38001 What's "Unlawful Sexual Intercourse"?And other questions from the Explainer's Roman Polanski roundup. By Brian PalmerPosted Monday, Sept. 28, 2009, at 7:18 PM ET Film director Roman Polanski was arrested in Switzerland on Saturday and faces possible extradition to the United States. In 1977, Polanski drugged and raped a 13-year-old girl in the home of actor Jack Nicholson. The sensational case raises a variety of questions, answered herewith. Polanski hasn't exactly been lying low for the last three decades--he even won an Oscar in 2002 for The Pianist. Why didn't the French government ever hand him over? Because he's a French citizen. Under the current U.S. extradition treaty with France (PDF), either country may refuse to extradite its own citizens. (Polanski was born in Paris.) This sort of exemption is a widespread and time-honored aspect of international relations. Neither the Greeks nor the Romans would extradite their own. In the modern era, France has been the strongest advocate for this provision. (The United States did manage to strong-arm the French into dropping the policy in 1843, but France changed its mind a few years later.) Some extradition treaties override the provision when it comes to heinous crimes. A citizen might be extradited, for example, if he were accused of murder or rape. Why did the Swiss choose this moment to arrest Polanski? Because the United States asked them to. The authorities over there might have nabbed Polanski in years past, given that he owns a home in a Swiss skiing town and travels there regularly. State and federal prosecutors in the United States may have begun tracking the director's movements more carefully this year after Polanski tried in December to have his case dismissed from abroad. (Moving to have your criminal charges dropped while you're still on the run is a good way to infuriate prosecutors.) When the United States asked for him to be arrested, the Swiss authorities had little choice but to comply with the terms of our extradition treaty. Polanski pleaded guilty to "unlawful sexual intercourse" with a minor. What's the difference between that and statutory rape? They're synonymous. Only a few states--Georgia, Missouri, and North Carolina--actually use the term "statutory rape" in their penal codes. Other legal euphemisms for having sex with someone who's underage include "Rape in the Third Degree" (New York), "Felonious Sexual Assault" (New Hampshire), and "Carnal Knowledge of a Child" (Virginia). The California Penal Code currently defines unlawful sexual intercourse as sexual contact with anyone under 18. The penalties become more severe as the age gap widens. Some news sources have reported that at the time of Polanski's crime, the age of consent was either 14 or 16. This is incorrect. California's first penal code in 1850 proscribed sex with girls under the age of 10. The age of consent was raised to 14 in 1889, to 16 in 1897, and finally to 18 in 1913, where it has remained since that time. Polanski molested his victim more than 30 years ago. Hasn't the statute of limitations run on his crime? No. The statute of limitations for a crime requires the state to make a formal charge against the defendant within a certain timeframe. Polanski was charged within a few weeks of the crime and pleaded guilty. At this point, he is a fugitive from justice who is awaiting sentencing. Once you're a fugitive, the statute of limitations clock stops ticking. Some articles note that Polanski wants the charges against him dropped because the judge engaged in misconduct. What's that about? In 1977, Polanski agreed to plead guilty to unlawful sexual intercourse. The presiding judge, Laurence Rittenband, was to decide Polanski's sentence after reviewing a report from the Probation Department and holding a hearing with attorneys for each side. All parties expected Polanski to get only probation. According to a recent documentary, Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney David Wells, who was not involved in the case, intervened with Rittenband. Wells thought Polanski was being cavalier about the charges against him and should serve time for his misdeed. (Wells showed the judge photographs of Polanski partying in Munich with his arms around two young women who Wells claimed were underage.) Rittenband seemed to be convinced and suggested to Polanski's attorneys that he would send the director to prison and order him deported. At that time, Polanski fled. While Wells was not himself an attorney of record in the case, he was a lawyer for one of the parties--the state of California. The California Code of Judicial Ethics (PDF) forbids judges to engage in ex parte communications--discussions where only one side is represented. There is no question that Rittenband violated the ethics code. The question of whether his conversations with Wells are sufficient grounds for dismissal of the charges against Polanski is an open question. There is very little law on the subject to guide the judge who's now presiding over the case. Outright dismissal is an exceedingly rare remedy for ex parte communications, especially when the communications came after the plea agreement was reached. It's far more common for the plea agreement to stand, with a new judge brought in to preside over the sentencing. The original judge could also face sanctions. (Judge Rittenband is deceased, so there's a good chance the unethical contacts will have no impact.) Explainer thanks Gerald F. Uelmen of Santa Clara Law and Charles D. Weisselberg of Berkeley Law. ............................................... COMMENTS This went waaaaay beyond "unlawful intercourse." It's true that Polansky agreed to plea to the lesser crime of statutory rape. It's also true that the judge ignored the prosecutors recommendation of leniency because: - the victim gave explicit testimony that she did NOT consent, contradicting Polanski's claims - the victim was 13 at the time - Polanski gave her alcohol and drugs prior to raping her, in hopes of making her more compliant - The victim was raped orally, vaginally and anally I scoff at those who say this case is unimportant. What if it was YOUR daughter or sister? the fact that he's rich and famous, and 30 years have elapsed, have no bearing on guilt or innocence. Polanski committed multiple, heinous crimes against this girl, and then fled justice. Shame on anyone who argues he doesn't deserve to be brought to justice. -- baltimore aureole | |

I just read a cool way for PU members to make some extra cash. How many of us have a Mac? I don't, I have a PC because it was cheaper. But for those of us who do have Macs, here's a bright thought: Make $0.43 (43 cents, U.S.) for every Mac you infect. That's right, just by loading some malware onto your friends' machines (and anyone else you can dump on), you can earn 43 cents per infected machine, paid by your friendly cyber criminal organization. No joke. No wonder these spammers are using my email address for spoofing: there's big money from cyber crime, if you know what you're doing. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=4451&tag=nl.e539 September 25th, 2009 Malware affiliate bounty: Infect a Mac, earn 43 cents Posted by Ryan Naraine @ 6:03 am GENEVA � In a sign that cyber-criminals are investing more time and resources into attacks against Apple�s Mac users, a new malware affiliate program has been discovered offering 43c for every infected Mac machine. During an eye-opening presentation at the VB Conference 2009 conference here, Sophos Labs researcher Dmitry Samosseikko provided a glimpse into the �Partnerka,� a Russian network of spam and malware affiliates that have turned their attention to the Mac platform � using social engineering tricks to load fake codecs and scareware programs. Samosseiko discussed the �codec-partnerka,� which is dedicated solely to the sale and promotion of fake Mac software. [ SEE: Mac Attack: Porn video lures dropping DNS-changer Trojan ] He pointed to a site called Mac-codec.com (now offline) which was offering $0.43 for each malicious install, a price tag that suggests the Mac platform is becoming more and more lucrative to online crime gangs. The site was also offering various promotional materials in the form of MacOS video players, a sign that the investment is just more than tricking users into paying for fake security software. In the past, we have seen the use of porn video lures to trick Mac users into downloadiing and installing DNS changer Trojans. The DNS changer Trojans typically change the Mac�s DNS server (the server that is used to look up the correspondences between domain names and IP addresses for web sites and other Internet services). When this new, malicious, DNS server is active, it hijacks some web requests, leading users to phishing web sites (for sites such as Ebay, PayPal and some banks), or simply to web pages displaying ads for other pornographic web sites. .........................

An older couple, both 67, went to a sex therapist's office. The doctor asked, "What can I do for you?" The man said, "Will you watch us have sexual intercourse?" The doctor looked puzzled, but agreed. The doctor examined them and then directed them to disrobe and go at it. When the couple finished, the doctor reexamined them and, upon completion, advised the couple, "There's nothing wrong with the way you have intercourse." He then charged them $32. This happened several weeks in a row. The couple would make an appointment, have intercourse with no apparent problems other than the lack of vigor which is to be expected in 67 year olds, get dressed, pay the doctor, and then leave. Finally after almost two months of this routine, the doctor asked, "Just exactly what are you trying to find out?" The old man said, "Oh, we're not trying to find out anything. She's married and we can't go to her house. I'm married, so we can't go to my house. The Holiday Inn charges $60. The Hilton charges $78. We do it here for $32 and I get $28 back from Medicare." | |

james4096 and jd1961, thanks for the help. I probably don't have a trojan on my PC (or a keylogger). I chatted email support at Yahoo, and they supplied an article on spam that tells you how to find the IP address in the header of the email. I was supplied four partial sample emails in the notices I received about my spam email, and none of the IP addresses used were mine. So the spam that is being sent, with my email address, is not coming from my PC, but from some other PC/server/whatever. In other words, my email address is being forged, but my PC is not being used to send the spam email. That's a relief. (I also checked the "sent mail" for my Yahoo email, and no spam showed up as being sent by me.) Yahoo support chat wrote to me: "It appears the true sender of the email has forged the email headers to contain a yahoo.com address that is similar to or the same as your own address at your email provider. This is a tactic commonly used by spammers to confuse the recipient as to the true origins of the email." If someone wants to forge my email address on spam, that's part of the Internet problem. I could get a different email address, but I'll have to think that over. Thanks again for the help. I feel much better knowing I probably do not have a keylogger installed. But I will run my anti-virus program to check my hard drives completely, which will take hours and hours. Better safe than sorry. | |

I think I've maybe got a trojan on my PC. The reason is that I sometimes get messages from Yahoo (my main email account) that state that I've exceeded the hourly maximum number of emails that I can send (something like 200 per hour). I don't send 200 emails in a year, so someone is using my email address to send spam. I don't know if they are actually using my PC to send the spam, or if it is just using my email address to send the spam, but either way, the originating email address for the spam (I don't see the spam being sent, just the notice from Yahoo that I have exceeded my maximum number of emails allowed) is my email address. I run a firewall and antivirus program, but they have not reported any trojan or malware on my PC. So should I be doing anything about this? I'm not going to take my PC into a computer shop (like Best Buy or whoever), because I've got porn on my PC, and who knows if they would report me to the police, for that porn? The porn is not illegal, as far as I know, but why take a chance you will be reported to the police for having porn on your PC? That's one problem I don't need to deal with. | |

OK, I checked Yahoo, and I will answer my own question: Is black coffee with sugar still considered black coffee? The Yahoo answers are: Yes and No. Some people consider coffee with no additives (sugar, milk, whatever) black coffee. Other people consider coffee with no milk or milk substitutes black coffee, meaning that sugar can be added to black coffee and the coffee is still "black", for them. It just depends on who you ask. | |

I am drinking a cup of coffee as I read this thread. I don't drink much alcohol, just never got into the habit. Never liked the taste of beer, and never had a head that could take much of the stronger stuff. Actually, I drink a mixed drink or two, and I'm ready for sleepy-time. If it gave me a lift or I really liked the taste, maybe I'd be more into it. As for black coffee, sometimes I take it straight, sometimes I take it with sugar. Is black coffee with sugar still considered black coffee? | |

All this fiddling with avatars is leaving me confused. The older you get (at least with me), the harder it is to remember who's who. And with PU members switching avatars for Christmas and any other reason they feel like it, I have a hard time keeping straight who is supposed to be who. My vote is against all this avatar switching. PS: But Maria Ozawa is one fine-looking Japanese model, if you really have to switch. PPS: Or you could steal Monahan's avatar, the penguin that cries "and I go WEEE!". I find it slightly confusing that one guy uses WeeWillyWinky for his nickname, and someone else uses WEEE in his avatar. I get easily confused. Edited on Sep 21, 2009, 02:02am | |

Drooler, maybe you could send a request (or a private email) to Toadsith. I seem to recall he made an offer at least a couple of times to alter an avatar to a PU member's liking. When he has the time, of course, because it seems he's been very otherwise busy lately. Edit: But I personally like your avatar dog fine just the way he is. He is a great-looking dog.

messmer, perhaps you need a brief vacation from porn. But in your heart and soul, and in your lower regions as well, you should never deny the power of the teen glamor niche, which is really more than a mere niche, but the holy grail of all porn. Met-Art uber alles! (I honestly deserve a free lifetime subscription to Met-Art, for promoting that site as one of their faithful.) I know in the past you have tried to deny the power and purity of teen glamor. But I am thinking this BBWs fling is only a brief flirtation. As you grow older, you will come to realize and appreciate the yummy side of teenies. :) | |

Gamer (the action science fiction movie with Gerard Butler) is gone from my area already. The movie lasted 2 weeks in our area. The shelf life of a movie, unless it catches on to be a hit, is like a popsicle on a summer day: gone before you can blink, unless you're paying close attention. Oh well, I guess I can wait to see it on DVD-that will save me a few bucks. | |

I have not read any articles specifically about the new Darwin movie. But I have read several articles that mentioned that many independent films are having a hard time finding distribution during the current economic downturn. Several of the independent distribution arms of major studios have closed. That makes independent distribution more difficult. Studios (and distributors) are currently supposed to be less willing to pay money for independent films because they see less chance of making money off of them, and the prestige factor of releasing an "important" or "worthwhile" film in the current economic downturn takes second place to not losing money on those films. Also, the subject matter of the film is not as commercial (a serious film about a scientist and his wife) as a raunchy comedy or a shoot-em-up. Where's the audience for this film? Who's willing to pay money to see it? The film might have two good lead actors, Paul Bethany and Jennifer Connelly, but that's not enough to make the film commercial. I don't know how important the religious aspect of this film is (theory of evolution versus theory of creation), but the major reason studios are not jumping on the film is probably financial: they don't think it will make a lot of money, and could lose money instead. I think my comments are just an extended explanation of Wittyguy's statement: "It's not the content, it's the fact that it's a serious and intelligent movie and that's what hollywood thinks America can't handle." My understanding of his comment is that America won't pay to see a serious and intelligent film unless there is a massive campaign to sell the film. And studios and distributors are not going to bet that kind of money. What is needed to sell this film (and to get it strong distribution) is a low-cost marketing campaign with a gimmick that catches the interest of the American public or the art house crowd. The internet has been used to sell films, the internet is a low-cost tool, but I don't know what kind of gimmick or campaign could be used successfully for Darwin's film. Unless the producers of this film were complete dreamers, they probably knew, going into production, that this film would be a hard sell in a commercial market. TV distribution would have been much easier (but with less prestige and smaller financial payoff). In other words, the producers and cast and crew were hoping to make a "good, serious film" for the sake of "art", and not with the expectation of making much if any money. That's my guess, anyway. | |

Nicolas Cage has a son he named Kal-el, which is the name of the baby that became Clark Kent (aka Superboy and later Superman). I doubt Nicolas Cage's wife is the one who came up with that name. Nicolas Cage is supposed to be a big fan of comic books. | |

There's a new movie opening October 16, 2009, titled "Black Dynamite". There's a trailer for the movie on Yahoo: http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809959827/trailer The movie itself is a new blaxploitation movie that is very similar to what was being made back in the 1970s. Back then, the movies were low-budget (with no big stars, about black men and women heroes (and anti-heroes) fighting crime, white criminals, black criminals, showing the power and purity of the black race. Get down, honky, kapow with a bullet in the face. Anyway, some of the blaxploitation movies became cult classics, like Shaft and Superfly. But this new blaxploitation movie, "Black Dynamite", looks like a piece of dog-doo. The kung-fu action in the clip looks fake, the humor is lame. So just reviving the lame plots and dialogue they had back in the 1970s doesn't work that well at times. This new movie does not look like it's high definition, but a low-budget waste of time. This is not porn, but an attempt to make money off the old-style movies from the 1970s. | |

turboshaft, what do you say we visit badandy400's porn collection while he's off somewhere? The guy sounds like he might do serious damage to the collection before folks realize he might have lost a few marbles. Even if we were caught by the authorities, we could always say we were hunting for National Treasure (I'm Nic Cage, you can be my sidekick). | |

A video (or a photoshoot) is a total experience. Yes, the model is the centerpiece, but how she is presented can make a huge difference in how erotic or alluring the video/photoshoot turns out to be. Setting is one factor (really, many separate factors), also lighting, costumes, model's attitude, soundtrack, intrusive background noises, etc. etc. Regarding outdoor locations, I don't get much of a thrill from models appearing nude in public places, and the photography/videography for those public nude shots is usually sub-par compared to private shoots. Outdoor private shoots can be hit or miss. An indoor shoot usually gives better results. The lighting is better, the skin tones are usually better (due to the lighting, I would assume), the photographer is usually able to better center the picture around the model, instead of having a branch or leaves cutting in front of the model, etc. I'm not saying all outdoor shoots are bad, but the video and photoshoot are usually more visually appealing when the model is in a house or studio setting, because you have control over the environment. If you can get Toadsith to answer this topic, he could easily give a technical and comprehensive answer, because he has a strong photo background. But he seems to have wandered off with other interests lately. | |

Capn, I read Mad Magazine on an irregular basis back in the 1950s-early 1960s. Don't really remember Captain Klutz. The only recurring characters I recall from back then was the "spy versus spy" strip, and the Alfred E. Neuman character used on the cover. But your Captain Klutz character looks like he would have fit right in with the other Mad Magazine characters. | |

As best as I can recall, I've given one No Trust vote so far. I think it was because a new member wrote a review that had the facts wrong about a site, and it appeared he never actually joined the site he was reviewing. I've given out a ton of Yes Trust votes. That's about the only way I vote, because I believe in giving the benefit of the doubt on this type of vote to members. I've received one No Trust vote from Anonymous. Didn't appreciate the No vote, but had to learn to live with it, because there's not much I can do about it. Would like to know who Anonymous is, because then I'd like to return the favor, and give him a No Trust vote. Is that the way the system is supposed to work? No, because "Anonymous" is just a way of hiding your identity. So why not allow all reviews and all posts to be "Anonymous" as well? Edited on Sep 08, 2009, 07:34pm | |

Why was leg hair and armpit hair for women mainly on the outs during the last 60+ years, while pubic hair was mainly in until recent years? Now pubic hair is definitely out (how gross). I'm talking U.S. standards; Europe and elsewhere might be different, over the last 60+ years. But the current trend is definitely no hair for legs, armpits, pubes, in most of western culture (Europe and U.S.), for females, at least. | |

badandy400, have you ever considered trying out as a stand-up comedian? If you are able to come up with lines like that, I would seriously give it a thought. Or if you can't deliver it in person, then you might go for humor-writing as a sideline. Your response was witty, refreshing.... it impressed the hell out of me. Honestly. | |

Almost all the members at PU are extremely civil. The level of name-calling here is amazingly low, considering that this site is basically about porn. If some members do post a critical remark once in a while, I don't really know whether it's better to ignore it or try to respond in a positive way. But I think E is giving too much importance to any negative remarks made to him. I'm overly sensitive myself, and don't take well to criticism, but you need a thick skin if you're going to participate in most forums. Separately, I'm sorry to read about the loss of your friend and colleague, E. Losing someone close to you is always painful, and it's even worse when the death is sudden and unexpected. 45 seems like a very early age to die. Life has a way of kicking you in the head (and other places) every so often, and you just have to get through the bad times somehow. You don't have much choice about that. | |

I used to look at the Rotten Tomatoes site years ago, when it was mainly an overall score with links to critics reviews. But it's been a long while since I looked at the site. Now it seems hugely expanded with a large number of sections that are completely new: * Movies * DVD * Celebrities * News * Critics * Trailers & Pictures * Community (Beta) I guess I'm going to have to study the site at least a little, because it sure doesn't seem to be the same animal any more, and the scoring system and the icons they use seem more complex. What's the simplest (easiest) way to use the site to get a quick read on the value of a new (and old) movie? I'm looking at the Rotten Tomatoes FAQ, which I guess includes their explanation of how to use the site and how to understand a score, but there should be an easier way to look at the score of a movie and understand what it means. I mean, this FAQ just goes on and on with all kinds of miscellaneous details in it that I could care less about. They even throw in whether they are currently hiring people to work for the site, whether they are currently selling merchandise, and contact information on celebrities that might be available. Sheesh. I'm glad they've been such a success (based on the huge increase in the site size), and maybe I will look around to see if any of the different sections have any interesting material to glance through, but it sure makes the site less easy to use to get a quick read on the potential value of a movie. OK, I've got to study the FAQ to understand their scoring system, because it sure seems to be more complex than what it used to be (or maybe I just didn't understand that the scoring system was complex back in the good old days of 4-5 years ago. | |

I think you gave me a sharp nip in the behind. Take pity on me, sir, I'm only a tiny kitten, remember. Lol. Actually, you bring up a harsh reality: The good material on our hard drive, that we've already seen, loses its impact as time goes on. So we are forced to keep hunting for fresh content and that gets harder to find because we become more discriminating as time goes on. Back when we were young, we could look at a Sears catalog and get aroused by pictures of models in swimwear or lingerie. Now that we're older, Victoria's Secret catalog, something that would have been amazingly exciting if it had existed when we were young, elicits a slightly blase "nice looking girls" response.

If THE site is the only one that will satisfy you, I can see where the frustration would keep building. I am more than happy if I can find sites that offer solid, quality content. And some of the content (pix and vids) can be surprisingly good. You just have to keep searching for it. | |

I don't like it, think it's abusive behavior. But apparently some guys do like it, gives the impression of male dominance over the woman. Also, the sado-masochistic element. Sasha Grey, in a lot of her scenes, slaps her sex partner, spits on him, gags when giving head, and gets slapped in return, that's part of her act. She's a very pretty woman, but I don't care for that type of behavior, doesn't turn me on at all. Like I said, apparently there is a market for it, though. The more you look at porn, you realize there are a huge number of fetishes, and different people will get turned on by different things. But those fetishes can leave other people cold or irritated or disgusted, as well. | |

Expectations for Gamer, the sci-fi action picture starring Gerard Butler, are low. I just read an article that said the picture could open in the "single-digit millions", so that would be a low-grossing movie. If so, it could be here today, gone in 2 weeks from your local theater. Looks like I will wait for it on DVD. But if any PU members do go see it, I wouldn't mind reading your reaction to the movie. | |
