Penis Stroke

I got this email from a reader the other day. I figured it deserved to be posted here:

I was dating a girl a few years ago and after a couple of months I told her that condoms were really a shitty thing and she should go on the pill. She did and we began some very happy latexless humping for the next three months or so. Then one day she woke up and couldn’t feel half of her face. She went to the hospital, where the thought she had a Bells Palsy and gave her all kinds of steroids and shit. it went away, but a week or two later she realized that she was having difficulty writing.

Well, long story short, apparently one of the dangers of going on the pill and being a smoker (did I mention that she smoked a pack a day?) is that you can have a stroke. Things worked out well for this girl, though, because I was getting sick of her shit by this point. But even I wasn’t a big enough douche to break up with a girl who just had a stroke for me, so I stayed with her for another 6 months. So maybe she had a stroke, but she got an extra 6 months of my man meat, so it had to be worth it.

I hope you can someday feel the love that clogs a girls brain.





That’s really all I can say about that. Aside from: I hope so too, my friend. I hope so too.

Vegetarians Can Now Eat Meat!

Awhile back, when conversing with a vegetarian friend-well, not actually vegetarian, because they eat fish, and not actually a friend, because I'd never be friends with a vegetarian- anyway, I was shooting the shit with someone, and I asked him why he'd become a vegetarian. Having once spent a year as a vegetarian, for no reason other than boredom and inability to cook meat safely, I'm curious as to why people would choose not to partake of the most majestic creatures that God put on earth (for us to kill). Sometimes I'll get some spiel about not liking the taste (bullshit), I have one friend who's worried about contracting Mad Cow seven years from now (bullshit as well, nevertheless, she'll be eaten first in the event of an Andean plane crash), but most of all, people tell me that they don't want to harm animals, or more succintly-and-self-righteously put, "I won't eat anything with a face". Nice gesture, but this reverence really only pays off if God turns out to be either a Veggie Tale or a member of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Despite their smug respect for all living things, when I ask most of these Face Vegetarians if they miss any particular meat product, they immediately start salivating and going on about burgers and steaks with the sort of crazed zest that makes you retract your extremities. So I was thinking, suppose someone were to open up a restaurant that only served animals that had died of natural causes*? Just keep a big range out back, with cows and chickens and whatever heavenly creature bacon comes from, let'em graze, and then when they croak (peacefully, in their sleep, surrounded by their family), hack them up into choice cuts and charge a ridiculous price. It's the perfect conscience loophole for protein-starved veggies, and anyone who's ever been to a Whole Foods knows that these people will shell out for just about anything that claims to be healthy and organic.

It'll probably only work in the more touchy-feely markets like Vermont and Northern California, but I figure I can get a mail-order side business going as well**. If the publicity brings more customers than I have barnyard animals, there might have to be a well-timed outbreak of Old Age, but I figure after the first couple of years, I'll probably get the numbers down. See? Everyone wins.

Vegans, though, they can go fuck themselves.

*Natural causes includes cancer and Alzheimer's and whatnot. This IS a business, people.

**I also have an idea for a Stoner Snack Shack, in which I just lay out bulk tubs tubs of ice cream and raw doughs on the floor, toss on a Phish song (one is long enough), and charge each person $10 for a spoon. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't even need to wash the spoons.

Worthless

I don't like the idea that there are estates that earn more than I do per year, like James Dean's estate earning $5 million a year, 50 years after his death. There are imaginary things that make more money than me. If that doesn't make one feel a tad worthless, I don't know what does.

Goodbye Grey Poupon

I have to be honest - it doesn’t feel right posting today. I contemplated a moratorium on posting out of respect for the loss that I - that we, that humanity - is feeling right now. But I know that thousands of you (ok, six of you) are counting on me to be a beacon of strength in this difficult time. Typically, I handle death well, as my upbringing has taught me that when someone special dies, it is the responsibility of those who cared for that person not to mourn a death, but to celebrate a life.

But in this case, I’m afraid that I’m just too sad. We have lost an icon and there must be time to grieve. I can not write any more on the subject, for fear that I will lose control. My sadness is too great and the hole in my soul too deep. I can only muster a goodbye to someone who has touched so many of our lives in such important ways.

Farewell, Grey Poupon Man. May you have all the dijon mustard that your heart desires in the Rolls-Royce that is heaven. We shall miss you, Sweet Prince. We…shall…miss you.

The Morning After

That icky feeling you have, the second you wake up. It pervades your body, and as you hurriedly shower to try and wash the dirty feeling off your body, you can't stop thinking about it. Flashbacks pop into your mind as you rub the soap all over your body and exfoliate for extra measure. The dinner, the wine, they were all factors, and now, now you're not going to be able to forget this for another year. Things seemed fine when you spoke on the phone, almost like nothing had happened, but you know that's not the case...

It's the morning after your parents' anniversary. You know they've had sex, and they've had it more recently than you.

An Open Letter To Stormy

Dearest Stormy,

I will say straight away that this is not an easy letter for me to write.

From the moment I first laid eyes on you, I knew it was there. The clip, titled "Stormy Waters fucked and cum shot," was one from the random torrent of pornography I download from Limewire onto my computer every week, leaving it crippled with viruses. While the scene itself was not spectacular - thirty seconds of sideways sex on a bed, followed by obligatory pop shot - you looked amazing. Nay, amazing doesn’t quite explain it; you looked super fucking hot. T.T.B.B. (tall, tanned, blonde, boobied) all the way.

Immediately, I had thought I had found the answer. Ever since Celeste retired a few years before, I had been in search of a new favorite porn star. To that end, I dabbled quite a bit. Chasey Lain, with her blue eyes and dark hair, was fun for awhile, but soon she retired and left me alone, sitting in front of my TV/VCR with my dick in my hand and no new material. There is nothing wrong at all with Jenna Jameson, but she was the object of desire of far too many - I didn’t think she’d have the time for me (and, without getting into it, I was right).

Feeling spurned by Jenna, I turned to Taylor Hayes, one of the most beautiful but also one of the nastiest starlets - if watching her "Best of...Blowjobs" doesn’t send chills up your spine, you either don’t have a spine, eyes, or penis; the woman is a semen-eating machine. But with Taylor it was all physical. Likewise with Stacey Valentine, who has the IQ roughly equivalent to that of a German Shephard. I was into Kira Kener for some time, but c’mon - I can’t get seriously involved with an Asian girl (even if she is half-Norwegian).

I then went through a fairly serious Sunrise Adams phase and nearly fell in love. But, though I am admittedly a breast man, I fell in love with the Sunrise Adams pre-breast implants. Once she got the fake boobies, I couldn’t make it. I mean, I could make it - I ejaculated even more viciously than before - but I couldn’t make "us" work.

Dejected, demoralized, and pretty much out of semen, it was then that I first saw you, Stormy. After witnessing that first clip, I downloaded some more and - I’m not ashamed to write this - I fell completely head over heels for you. This is in large part because I knew you were more than a sperm-covered smile and a pair of fake boobies. Despite your easy manner and Louzy-ana drawl (which, by the way, is adorable), you exuded a real sense of self-confidence, something so often missing from porn stars, who typically spent their formative years getting fucked by their dad/their uncle/a teacher/my dad.

And all was right with the world. I masturbated to your scenes with the reckless abandon of a bee who has first tasted honey or a poor who has taken his first hit from the pipe or a 26 year old who on the whole is pretty lonely and has a serious addiction to pornography, so much so that he occasionally has to fake orgasms while having actual sex. The next few months were the greatest of my life, as I basked in that warm glow and semeny smell of porno love.

But, as with all relationships, the glow began to subside (though the semeny smell remained strong, if it did not grow in strength). I still roughed up the suspect to your clips, but a scary notion began to dawn on me. When I was not blinded by lust, I realized something.

Stormy, you don’t have it.

Believe me - this is one of the most difficult things I’ve ever had to write. But I do so because I believe that it’s not too late - that you could still have it. But you need to work for it.

I feel, Stormy, that in your scenes, you are simply not applying yourself as much as you should. There is no fire, no real fire, in your fake love-making. Like any good contract girl, you "ooh" and "aah" at the right times, have no qualms when ass-play is involved, and are willing to take the pop shot wherever and whenever, but it is obvious to any discernable porn connoisseur that you are giving only the minimum effort required.

Like many gifted people, you rely solely on those talents that you have been born with (or that have been surgically inserted into your body) to get by. All throughout your career, you have been considered so stunningly beautiful and sexy that you never had to really work in your scenes; it was enough for you to just show up, take off your clothes, S a little D, get slammed, and be on your way. But I must tell you that your lack of effort and work ethic in your scenes is not only a slap in the face to your admirers, but a clear indication that - right now - you, Stormy Daniels, do not have it.

And when I realized this, I was devastated.

But this isn’t about me (too much). I write to you to both enlighten you and plead with you to step it up - not just for your fans, but for yourself and your legacy. Few in the modern porn industry have been able to combine looks of your caliber with a passion that makes even the most seasoned director blush. Celeste could. Jenna could. And possibly Briana Banks can, if she stopped doing so many drugs (or at least stopped looking like she did so many drugs).

You, Stormy, could add your name to this list. Your looks put you half-way there. All you need now is that fire. I encourage you to review the films of Melissa Hill, a starlet who may have been lacking in the looks department but who turned into a sexual wolverine when the director yelled "Action!" If you have the time, I would also suggest checking out some of Chloe’s early work, though I would stay away from her whole eye-rolling bit, because, frankly, it’s kind of creepy.

I know that you may find some of my words hurtful, but please remember that I write these things only because I care about you, and because I know that you are on the doorstep of greatness - true greatness - that so many of your peers can not even approach. A few simple changes in your approach and shortly your name will be mentioned along side the all-time greats. You are so close, Stormy. So close. And I am getting such an erection writing this letter to you.

I close this letter with a quote from Calvin Coolidge, thirtieth president of the United States. I think it sums up my feelings and your task very well:

‘Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.’

Stormy, the key to the pantheon of porn greatness lies in your well-manicured hand. Unlock the door, Stormy. Unlock the door.

(Or something.)

As always,
Green, as I love you, greenly,
Beneath the moon of the gypsies,
Silent things are looking at you,
Things you cannot see,
I am,

Johnny Trashbag
