I admit that guy is kinda funny and I admire his enthusiasm--though it may be more for getting something for nothing rather than for the porn itself--but he's also a hypocrite: "I'm not trying to put the porn boys out of business, okay?" and then later says "I just ain't buyin' the shit."  What?! Yes you are! If you're not paying for it, and neither are the people who provide it freely on a 'tube site, then you're not giving them any business, asshole! Maybe you're not lobbying with the religious right to outlaw porn, nor are you starting a company of your own to compete with them, but you're not fucking helping by watching it for free! Oh, and he says at about 0:40 that "There is no such thing as good porn." Either this guy has no standards or he just hasn't seen very much porn. Oh, I really hate this guy now.  I know I bitch and whine and cry a lot about restrictions on porn and censorship and the enemies of everything fun but I at least feel I'm helping somewhat by paying for my fix--I mean entertainment! Entertainment!--and supporting the people who actually produce the stuff that makes life suck a little bit less. These free 'tube sites are just going to hurt the industry and make it implode from all the watch-but-don't-pay demand. I hope they figure out something soon because I'd hate to see it shrink and shrivel (no jokes) as it becomes a victim of its own success. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I am afraid you're right, pat. It's even worse if you are looking up a model and a video, then you are truly inundated with 'tube results. I have watched my fair share of videos on 'tube sites but the quality just cannot compare to what you pay for, plus it's all streaming video which makes me quite  to say the least. Then you have ads, comments, extra watermarks...ooo, at this point I have to step away and calm down before I throw my monitor out the window.And now I have to do the same just thinking about it...

Don't worry, you're not alone, messmer. I think I spend way too much time downloading--or at least my computer spends too much time downloading--rather than spending the same amount of time actually watching this filthy shit. What's even worse is that I too don't watch all of it either! Just gigs and gigs of data just going to waste... ...Or waiting for that special day when the Internet fails, the Puritans regain power, and modern civilization collapses into an apocalypse and everyone spends their remaining days fighting for bits of food, water, shelter and of course fuel, a la Road Warrior (to run your computer and porn-filled hard drives). Call me crazy but I think the majority of today's American politicians are moronic prudes who think the greatest threats to 'freedom' are homosexuality, atheism, science, and of course evil, evil, filthy porn. But I think I am ahead of these birdbrains by a couple of steps because not only do I have a lot of porn, but a lot of porn that I have yet to even watch, thus more reason to protect it with my post-apocalyptic life. So even when they start blacklisting sites and then outlaw all porn I'll have tons of videos and photosets to 'fall back' on. But knowing my luck I'll fall asleep watching some video instead of pulling guard duty and a bunch of armed post-apocalyptic teabaggers will overrun my porn shelter, destroy my hard drives (in front of my own eyes, no less), and then hang me for 'obscenity'!  So yes, for now I prefer the hunt to the kill. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual.

The whole name change problem pisses me off too, and it's definitely not conducive to following a girl's 'career' in the business. As a result you end of following a lot of dead leads, wrong names, and wasting a lot of time in confusing indices (EuroBabe can be fun for a few minutes but is not always helpful). I also find myself having to identify models by name and site-- ____ on _____ --so as not to just throw out a fairly common model name and leave people wondering. Lisa/Liza, Cindy, Holly, the list goes on of super common names that are far from unique to any one model--and I can't take it anymore!  "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Hopefully it was actually one of their models and not something sent in to Beaver Hunt!  I guess it was if it smelled like perfume. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Is really anything "necessary" in porn? For most things, probably not. If you are talking about hardcore then most aspects are unnecessary; the slapping, spitting, gagging, choking, abusive shit we all, or at least some of us, sit through and support because we keep buying the shit. I would even argue that for many fans it is "sexual-viewing entertainment" at a fairly high level, if not the highest. Like other have already said, it's fantasy, not reality. In reality you could definitely yank-spank-and-wank your way to a furious facial like so many of the guys do in porn...you just might not have a partner afterward, at least not a very happy one. So, the fantasy is we see a guy do it and get away with it in porn and it's entertaining. We're not stuck with the reality of an angry woman, sprained wrist, and all the cleaning that now has to be done on the sofa, carpet, walls, etc.  Also, believe it or not, some girls in porn actually like facials. Okay, probably not the ones where they are hosing the 'shrapnel' out of their hair afterward, but some starlets do enjoy the crazier things on camera, especially when they are getting paid for them.

I'm pretty lost here too. If it's an external I'm not quite sure how it could be "upside down," only on it's side or standing upright (which usually saves some room, BTW). If it's an internal then I'm not sure how you could install one upside down at all given the orientation of the connections--i.e., power on one side of the end, data to the left/right of the that, etc. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

"Fairness" as in all is fair in love and war, and business is war, well, then you have your answer (and something else to get mad about ). You could always argue that you yourself are not being treated very fairly as a customer, or that the customer is always right, or you are fucking paying them and that they shouldn't charge you more just for being a customer...but oh what a wonderful utopia that would be! I think I despise cable, Internet, and communications companies more than anything else because these assholes have so much control over how and what they charge customers that they always intentionally and radically tip the balance in their (highly profitable) favors. In many communities these companies are essentially monopolies because even though other providers may operate in the area only one company provides service to your home or address and you either pay them or go without. And it's also not as if you are dealing with a relatively fragile and finite resource, such as water or gas or electricity. Downloading too much, well, let's call it 'data,' is not going to threaten this summer's crops or our planet's wildlife! (And if it is then I'm going to need to go back to biology class.) I better stop before I have an 'outage' of my service. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual.

If you're watching a 3D movie without the glasses it is going to look strange, though I would think modern 3D films are an improvement over the ones from the 50s, at least in how they look. I have heard that 3D films have better color when viewed in their 2D versions, but I'm really not sure since I have yet to watch both versions of any 3D film and I have only seen "Avatar" in its entirety in 3D.

As I am sure some have already heard, the birth control pill turns 50 this weekend, ironically enough on this year's Mother's Day. I'm not sure what PU'ers think, since we're still mostly guys, but I know this definitely gets reaction from women, because it is what finally put reliable contraception in their hands (bodies?), and helped to level the playing field as far as sex and who can control at least one of its major consequences. I'm sure it's helped the industry a lot too--where would the entire creampie genre be without this pharmaceutical wonder? "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I'm not sure what a "real date" is either but I'd imagine seeing someone have sex in almost every way possible might change how you would ask that person out. For one thing there would be a lot more blushing!  I honestly don't know what I'd say if I met a porn star, seeing as I don't like crowds or convention type gatherings, or even really have any favorite big stars, though I would probably try to avoid what most of this list already covers, plus a couple of others. "Are you really married? I thought the ring was just for show," and "Can I direct you in a scene? Here's the script," are probably some ones to avoid if I ever met one. I'm sure all my blushing and voice cracking would keep me from asking too many dumb questions, but maybe I would get myself together and ask a really geeky porn question like "Remember your second scene in '______ part ____'? Well, you finished the scene in a piledriver position, but I really thought cowgirl would have been more appropriate given the lighting situation." To which she would reply, "Uh, thanks. I have to leave now." "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice.

I'm not completely opposed to what you're saying. There's bad acting and there's bad acting, and then there's over acting, which can get quite irritating. I personally like some dirty talk--not all, but some--because it can be any combination of sexy, nasty, funny, or just plain entertaining. Sometimes it just comes down to the girl and the particular sound of her voice. Just as in real life, sometimes you want to hear it and sometimes you just want the girl to shut the fuck up! Mostly it depends of what's going on in the scene. If you have a pretty energetic, crazy hardcore scene, the least I'd expect is some vocalization. Of course if the poor girl sounds like she's not faking it because she's in real pain, then it can be hard to watch--or really easy, if you prefer scenes be done with a little . But if it's a slow, sexy, sensual masturbation then I don't expect the ear-shattering screams of unimaginable ecstasy at the mere sight of a toy. Granted some girls get nice and loud, but watch a few masturbation scenes that are more BTS and/or after-the-fact and a lot of girls stay pretty quiet, and they still seem just happy and satisfied, if not more so. A lot of scenes do have some just plain bizarre and kinda creepy dialogue. Many of Max Hardcore's scenes, especially his later ones, had some of the more inane and creepy talk you'd think to put in a hardcore scene. His "Mm hmm" and "Oh, please, mister" lines got to be pretty common. I'm sure some of them are even on a courtroom record somewhere... "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Bush 2 definitely was--Europe hated him, hell, they still do--but not necessarily the United States as a whole. And even if they hated Americans, they didn't hate the parts of the U.S. that they liked to visit. Good thing so much of world likes Obama, even if he's not very different policy-wise.

I find it truly odd that so many Americans would celebrate Cinco de Mayo, or anything closely related to our southern neighbors. America's history of racial problems, most recently with Latinos, would say otherwise. But of course that's the great quandary of America--we pick and choose our likes and dislikes at random. Some like 'small government' except when it comes to immigrants and gays. Some of us 'love' other cultures as long as there is some alcohol and profit involved (which are already closely related). And many of us espouse a love of the 'good old days,' as long as we get to cherry-pick what parts of the 'old days' were so 'good' without having to look at the bigger, and almost always grimmer, picture. (BTW, the 'good old days' comments remind of something I heard Chris Rock say recently: "What the fuck good old days are you talking about? If it's before the Jackson 5, I don't want hear about it." ) I don't want to piss on Denner's original thread--much less risk the wrath of Khan--because I do like hearing the appreciation, even all these years after WWII, but messmer does have a point. We really are not #1 at anything anymore, except maybe military spending and oil consumption (could they somehow be related, I wonder?  ). Things have changed drastically since the days of and after WWII, in and outside of the U.S., and we are not exactly the model country I think we once were, and could very well be again. We certainly have the money and the manpower--even with immigrant 'reforms'--to lead the pack again, so the question is, do we have the willpower?I also think that it's completely American to question ourselves and our systems and say that though they may be good, they could be a lot better, and believe that we could live up to our hype again.

I agree here. I am betting quite a few girls who get in the business do so at least partially out of wanting attention, up to and including guys waxing their carrots to their work. Okay, maybe they don't always appreciate the "Hey, I have hurt both wrists and replaced my carpet five times because of you" comments but the idea that every porn star objects to fans' masturbatory enthusiasm and support sounds ridiculous, not to mention hypocritical. It would be like Quentin Tarantino saying he's a pacifist and objects to fans enjoying the action and violence of his films. I am sorry but the point of porn is--well, it is not to keep people's minds off sex, that's for sure! In fact, I would go so far as to say that if a star doesn't have at least some of her fans masturbating to her then there's something wrong. I know I would be insulted if I were in that situation and fans never once told me they did so. But maybe that's just me. I say every star deserves her share of by fans.

It's interesting how those who thought up and passed this bill, and now support it with classic xenophobic zeal, are the same assholes who screech and scream for 'smaller government'. I guess 'smaller' refers to the government's tolerance for basic civil rights. Of course they claim it's a matter of national security. Hmm, where have I heard that before? It's sounds familiar... Yes, immigration is a huge problem, particularly for border states like Arizona, but fences and walls and profiling and teabagging rallies are not the solution (particularly the last one which sounds kind of ). The government--a small one, of course -- has to go after that wonderful entity we call the free market. The businesses that fuel the main motive for illegal entry into the country by continuing to hire and pay undocumented employees, in essence funding illegal immigration. The problem here of course is the lure of dirt cheap labor for businesses because if an employee isn't documented then the employer doesn't have to pay them minimum wage. But that's probably too much thinking for politicians with national security complexes. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

"Handsome"?  I'm not a fan of models her age, but I think she's a pretty hot exception to the rule, though the whole typecasting thing does get a little tired after a while. It seems like any woman past thirty-five--roughly MILF age, I guess--is automatically put into the mother role with a costar who is sometimes only fifteen years younger, stretching the role even more. There are countless videos out there with mother-daughter-team stories and the mother role is always has them 'instructing' the younger, naiver innocent in the ways of hardcore sex. Fun the first couple of dozen times but eventually it gets old. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Maybe I'm alone on this one or it's just something wrong with my heavily corrected vision,  but I think she looks pretty much the same as always just with different (shitty) makeup, which, considering the industry, is a big problem in my opinion. So on one site/video/convention she'll look great but at another one she can look like an "anorexic scarecrow."I don't really care about awards shows or all that other faux-Hollywood bullshit they do. I like to see their photos and videos but I really don't give a shit about what dresses they wear to what show or which boyfriend is perpetually attached to them either (but another thing that pisses me off because they frequently become models' only costars).

Also the way Apple pursues people and cases is pretty scary. Just read some of their actions here. I honestly like some of their products but I am not a big fan of their compounds--I mean stores--I'm worried I might do something wrong and get 'disappeared' by their members/staff.

And ain't science grand too? As comedian Patton Oswalt said, "We're science! We're all about coulda, not shoulda." Monsanto was one of those fuckers who helped to produce Agent Orange during the Vietnam War, along with a whole other slew of chemicals the side effects of which we're still not quite sure about. If you watch the documentary "Food, Inc.", which is about the modern production of food in the U.S. (I don't think Canada is really mentioned though), you'll learn quite a bit about Monsanto. Even worse they make most of their seeds sterile in order to force growers to keep purchasing their products over and over again (the plants either don't produce seed or produce useless seeds), but the control of their product is pretty crazy in and of itself. Gene patents, or just the concept of gene patents, are pretty scary. The idea that some company or individual (who would probably be bought out by a company) can take a living organism and own a patent on it is unbelievable. One day in the future they'll probably start patenting cancer genes and if you get that particular type of cancer you'll have to keep paying the patent owner for the rights to 'own' that cancer until their 'cure' works.  Maybe I'm a little paranoid but the way the Supreme Court is run--corporations are our friends, citizens go fuck yourselves--I would not be that surprised. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Lol. I meant to say "buy" (though the porn could have been mostly from free sites), as "burying" the porn would probably have prevented most of the bad but hilarious press. But I do believe the conservative hypocrites are the ones who usually bury their stash, at least until they are accused of buying and doing meth in some cheap motel with a male prostitute. I am sure plenty of porn haters have some decent collections that are just waiting to be unearthed once their 'moral' crusades come crashing back down to earth... "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Hmm...I guess it all depends on how one defines the term "customer's consent"--one of the slipperiest of slopes in the modern world if you ask me. For example, how many people ever stop and read the visitor/customer agreements on adult websites before hastily clicking "Yes!" in a horny fury of puerile curiosity and wonder? For all I know I've "consented" to some questionable clauses, it's just that I've never taken the time to read and think them through. Pre-checked cross sales are the logical step under these circumstances and they seem to happen in plenty of other places as well. I recently bought some tickets to an upcoming concert through one of the big national ticket retailers/monopolies (okay, maybe the ticket monopoly)--a $25 ticket price with an additional $6+ in "convenience" and "service" fees that you only see at the last step before you're about to pay! Or think of all the agreements you click through to install software--what's the point if you already bought the damn program?! I guess one more binding agreement to keep you from even thinking of ever getting any kind of compensation from a corporation if something ever goes wrong with its products/services. Either way you're stuck being basically forced to "consent" to a lot more than you should have to and companies looking to soak up of every penny of yours they can get their hands on. I guess you pay through an unknown billing company at your own peril and damn the consequences.
BTW, I doubt Bernie is making license plates or doing much work of any kind in prison, as I have heard that he's in a minimum security white collar prison.  "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Wittyguy, in regards to the sexual harassment, I'm not really sure it would be a huge problem since it mentioned one employee had hundreds of pictures on her computer--so clearly it's just not bored male bureaucrats. And maybe if they were only downloading from American porn sites you could argue they were not wasting money, just using it to stimulate the economy the old fashioned way. You know, I've always wondered how many stimulus checks from the last few years have gone to buy porn... "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I'm sure some American PUers have already heard about this story, but apparently some of the employees at the SEC (Securities and Exchanges Commission), which is a part of the U.S. government that's supposed to watch Wall Street, were spending a lot of time downloading porn. Like up to eight hours a day--sounds like badandy numbers to me --and in some cases even burning to DVD and CD after they filled up hard drives! This story was first reported by the Washington Times back in February, but since they are a conservative newspaper owned by a church it sounded way too good of a story to be true coming from them--"The evil of porn and the failure of government regulation?! Yes! We were right all along!"--but apparently they were telling the truth. Now I am all for government regulation of the free market--especially for the assholes running/ruining Wall Street--but I don't think you can be very good at your job if you're downloading porn for eight hours of the work day, even if you're a site reviewer (because you're eventually going to have to stop downloading and write a review). This story does make me laugh though and even makes me rethink my earlier claims of swearing off all government related jobs for life. Though knowing my luck they would probably make me sign a 'no-porn' contract or something...bastards. This story sounds like every sexophobic conservative's wet dream but it would probably help things at least a little if the SEC employees kept their collection building hobbies at home.

Not to mention a rather large role in a non-porn film, even if the role is a call girl and the film is independent. I don't even think Jenna can claim that (yet). "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Yeah, but a turd is still a turd no matter how much you polish it, and it will always have some  to it.I think it's more of a good combination of hype, marketing, and sound business decisions in pretty much all the cases you mentioned. Jameson's longevity is probably due to her unwillingness to give up along with all the right moves when it came to signing deals and contracts. I don't think I've watched more than a few minutes of her work, and I don't intend to watch any more, but I bet none of my favorite stars really have whatever it takes or even the will to become the next Jenna or have a career as long as hers. This pisses me off on the one hand but on the other I don't think I want to see any of my favorite stars reach her level of success--I despise the mainstream and I want them to stay out of it. But like you mentioned why do we always get fucked over when we had a better choice?! Did we really just believe all the empty hype and join in with the rest of the herd?

I hate to sound too prejudice--which isn't my intention--but at some point people have stop being so 'respectful' towards every cultural practice dreamed up by mankind because many of them very easily violate basic human rights. Female circumcision is the most extreme example I can think of (and I guess the same may be said for male circumcision one day too). Yes, it's a traditional cultural practice but also extremely barbaric by even the loosest of modern medical standards and arguably one of the cruelest things you could do to a woman. So while it may be all well and good to slice and dice a young girl overseas we should not have to tolerate it in freer societies. By extension the same should be done about this website and its webmasters. The U.S. is not a Muslim state (nor technically Christian, but that's a tougher argument) and so its citizens should not have to conform to the violent whims of a few who have no respect or concept of free speech or freedom of religion.

Hmm, I doubt South Park or any other thing shown on TV would have much of an effect on military recruitment (including recruitment ads) but it will probably have a negative effect on audiences' views of the world or at least Muslims for decades to come. If you're a fan of South Park and the most significant thing you can think of Muslims doing--if only a relative few Muslims do it--that's newsworthy is making threats/warnings against what pretty much everyone else agrees is a puerile TV show then how hard is it to form a prejudice? I would say not very hard. It's this stupid behavior like the cartoon and now animation controversies that help reinforce every stereotype out there. Yes, we all repeat the mantra "but not all _____ are like these people, they are just a few bad apples," but the fact is it's always those few bad apples who make the most noise and get the most media attention as a result. I try to be more unprejudiced and continue to have a big contemptible for all faiths equally. Sorry, but that's just me. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Hey, thanks. I must say that I can't think of any European country that's comparable in terms of geography, and even within the entire continent that's really as close to the U.S., especially the western U.S. Isn't driving around Europe, at least within EU member countries, a lot easier now because of the really open borders? I remember not even having to show my passport driving from Germany to Netherlands, though I think I had to at least stop and show a license. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

I think that's what has me upset the most because it could have the worst long term effects. If people, corporations, governments, whoever keep giving in to these types of threats--er, "warnings"--then it's giving all the power to the people making the warnings. If Viacom/Comedy Central had not given in to this group than it would have set a great precedent for others to stand up to future fanaticism. People are going to be offended and make threats in reaction until the end of time but what really matters is how people choose to respond. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

No problem.  I am still betting the laws you refer to are only there because certain acts would be hazardous to your criminal record. I still think it's 'morals,' not health and safety, that fuel most porn worker laws. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Oh, whoops... I honestly can't tell much of a difference between a lot of girls in their late teens and those in their late 20s, but it has quite a bit to do with upkeep, drug use, surgery, and the fact that I'm 27 and I like to think I'm not as old as I really am. Unfortunately in porn late 20s is nearly ancient and too frequently considered a post retirement age. And plastic surgery at that age is just premature and unnecessary if you ask me.

It never changes; the fanatics are always angry and making death threats.  Not to toot my own thread, but this reminds me of the thread I started last December, Switzerland Banning Minarets, and how I was against the idea because I thought it was intolerant towards religion but every time some fucknut gets pissed and makes a death threat because his religion was not revered then I start to change my mind. Seriously, it's just a fucking cartoon! It's a cartoon that makes fun of everything, including itself and every other religion it can think of. The same episode had Jesus depicted as a porn fan and Buddha as a coke head, but their brain-dead double standard requires that Islam is the greatest religion on earth and if you think otherwise than you should either get your head cut off or suicide-bombed or both. Sorry to get all huffy but this is one of the reasons I can't stand religion, because they are not only so deeply and easily offended by just about anything but if you wait long enough you'll find one that comes along and makes death threats in the name of its god. Years ago South Park depicted Muhammad 'uncensored' without any controversy, and even put him in the opening credits (along with hundreds of other characters) for a while without any protest or death threats. Then the Dutch cartoon controversy came along and because of the knee jerk reaction to those cartoons they suddenly realized that violence and threats of violence work so now all animation is off limits. And as a final reminder of how much people gave in to these threats, Yale University published a book "The Cartoons that Shook the World" about the controversy and didn't even show any images of the actual blasphemous cartoons in question. Wow. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice.
