Comment Spamming Makes You Look Bad

8 December 2010
This morning I woke up to a round of comment spam waiting in my queue; you see, I personally approve all commenters here. We have a wild, but very real, and always human community. When someone tries to do a drive-by for SEO (this blog gets serious traffic, so it […]

YouPorn Sued for Browser History Sniffing; Stops Practice

7 December 2010
This morning I filed an in-depth look at the paper that named YouPorn as the top culprit for "history hijacking" and why they were singled out - it wasn't because they're a porn site. I'm a fan of YouPorn for a number of reasons, and while I am upset about […]

Rule 34: Wikileaks Porn – Julian Assange Fetish

7 December 2010
This is totally one of those "don't go into the woods alone" posts. I'm not endorsing or decrying: type Julian Assange Fetish into Google and you find Fuck Yeah Julian Assange; on that blog you will find photos, drawings and songs - yes, songs. Visit Reddit Sex and you'll see this […]

Video Game Sex Scenes by Joystick Division

6 December 2010

Hilariously Bad Sex Advice From The Usual Suspects (Cosmo, Etc.)

5 December 2010
Oh shit, I want to do a parody of this, but I just can't. Cosmo, Men's Health and Maxim have been unintentionally self-parodying for so long now that to try and make a cartoon version of the pure perfection they have attained as a well-known comedy gold standard for bad […]

TSA LOL: Japanese TV Comedy Skit Does TSA Pervery

4 December 2010
One Videosift commenter put it best: "Something's seriously amiss when Japan can make fun of someone else for being too pervy..." About a month ago, a Japanese TV show did a Benny Hill style sendup of our new TSA regulations. It hit a few spots online before I caught it, notably […]

The Pirelli 2011 Calendar by Karl Lagerfeld

4 December 2010
This year, tire maker Pirelli chose Karl Lagerfeld to do their famously sexed-up calendar, and it came out pretty. Last year the calendar was directed and shot by Terry Richardson (Pirelli 2010, video), and that came out weird and obscure and still NSFW. What is most bizarre to me, is […]

Pretty Girl Friday Has A Name

3 December 2010
A female reader requested that I post more Sapphic Erotica galleries today, so I went cruising around their latest video and photo updates. I've always liked Sapphic: even with the usual porny caveats their models are pretty, smiley, regulars, and they have some pretty astounding (authentic) orgasms. They don't look […]

You seem to like it when I do Found: Videos posts, or at the very least we have great discussions about them. Above is The Klaxons "Twin Flames" from Trim Editing - is it sexy, or disturbing? (Found on SFist.) Below is the trailer for "fuck you Bittorrent pirates" director […]

Your Balls, I Have Them: Male Testicular Exam Model Reviews on Amazon

1 December 2010
Commenters and reviewers: sometimes awful (or worse) -- sometimes so smart and hilarious it makes us feel like this open internet thing is pretty awesome. Example: Male Testicular Exam Model Anatomy on Amazon.com. It is a "lifelike" model for teaching male testicular exams. "This life-sized model of the scrotum and testicles made […]

Giving Back at Suit Supply: Terry Richardson for Vogue Paris

1 December 2010
Many of you will remember the recent post (and online debate) about Suit Supply, a European suit company that contracted sexually-charged photos for their new line. The images depicted men in suits, and women in... not much. There was much debate around the women as sex objects, we mulled whether […]
