If Michael Berube can post a picture of Roger Daltrey, why can’t I post a picture of Johnny Depp?
Of course, Berube’s Daltrey post is a deeply cynical post-modern jab at our sacred institutions. It’s a classic example of how extreme lefty professors like him mock our traditional values and corrupt the minds of our impressionable young. See David Horowitz for more on this.
Whereas all I want to know is why Depp was overlooked by the Academy for his searing performance in the title role of last year’s The Cat in the Hat.

How did this fellow ever become a sex symbol? There’s a homeless guy on my block that is his spitting image.

Violet Socks says:
Well, he does have interesting taste in clothes. But he’s a gorgeous creature.
-
The Countess says:
I heard “The Cat In The Hat” blew chunks. I wasn’t about to rent it.
Did you know that Johnny Depp was an absinthe fan? I don’t know if he imbibes in The Green Fairy anymore, but he used to. I’m going to a convention in March, and I’m bringing a bottle of absinthe with me to share with two of the guest speakers. They’re both excited about it. We do like our unusual liquors.
-
Violet Socks says:
Yes, I DID know that, and I’m envious. I dream of absinthe. Have never had it, ’cause I don’t live in Europe and can’t afford $100 for a tiny airplane-size bottle. Where do you get yours, Trish?
-
The Countess says:
I found it online. I found a pretty decent bottle for about $80.00. It has wormwood in it. I bought it a few days ago. I expect it to arrive soon. I’m taking it to a convention to share with some friends in March. I’m sure it will arrive before then. ;)
Here’s the link:
http://www.absinth.com/links/logan_fils_com.html
I love absinthe. I can buy it at the local liquor store, but it doesn’t have wormwood in it. We buy it anyway. It costs about $40.00.
-
Violet Socks says:
Oh, I remember them! I actually used to have a couple of absinthe sites bookmarked. My favorite allowed you to rank brands by several different variables, including wormwood content. Can’t find that online anymore.
I recently discovered chocolate liqueur — have you ever tried that? Mmm…chocolate liqueur and Johnny Depp would go very well together.
-
The Countess says:
Johnny Depp and any liqueur would go very well together. ;)
I’ve had chocolate liqueur before, but it was awhile ago. I liked it very much. I sometimes put either chocolate liqueur or Kahlua in my coffee.
I also like Grand Marnier, Benedictine, and Campari. All that stuff packs a whollop like absinthe. The Count tells me I like some strong liquor.
-
Will says:
So many times, I’ve almost said to the Countess, “You must be smoking crack!”
Now I know to say “You’ve been hitting the absinthe hard today!”
Recently, I have developed a taste for Port myself.
-
Violet Socks says:
Port? Do you enjoy it with cigars in your paneled library? Very lawyerly of you, Will.
My favorite cold boozy drink is a Long Island Iced Tea, and my favorite hot boozy drink is a Nutty Irishman. The stronger the better. What I would really like to do is drink absinthe and smoke opium!
I sound like a fiend, but fortunately I have no alcoholic tendencies. I just do enjoy a buzz.
-
Will says:
better living through chemistry!
-
Will says:
And no cigars for me.
-
The Countess says:
Will, you’re so naughty!! I don’t need to smoke crack. I hallucinate just fine on my own without the need for controlled substances.
However, I do like my absinthe. I’m about to get a bottle that has real wormwood in it. I’m going to share it with two of my friends whom I believe have never had it. I always like introducing my best friends to novel ways to have fun. ;)
I, like you, also like port. There’s a nice port from Australia I’m partial to, but I can’t recall the brand right now.
I’ve had Long Island Iced Tea, but it’s too sweet for me. I like harder liquor when I’m in the mood for it. Most of the time I drink red wine, especially the Australian wines. I like Australia. I also like New Zealand. The only reason I wanted to see “Lord of the Rings” was because I liked the director. Peter Jackson rules!
-
The Countess says:
Will: “And no cigars for me.”
I’m not a cigar smoker, either. I tried them, and I don’t like them. I’ve even had cigars soaked in cognac, and I don’t care much for them. I like my clove cigarettes. I’ve had Turkish Ovals and Jamaican Ovals, which aren’t bad, but they’re a bit harsh. No filters. I use a cigarette holder for those kinds of cigarettes.
-
Violet Socks says:
Will and the Countess, sittin’ in a tree..
Yep, you’re definitely Alon’s parents. Trish, when are you going to tell P.Z. and Chris Clarke the truth?
-
will says:
Argue. Make up sex. Argue. Make up sex.
Drink some Port. Start over
-
The Countess says:
You forgot the absinthe, Will, but maybe we shouldn’t mix our liquor. ;)
-
will says:
I’ve never had absinthe.
-
will says:
Nor a raging Feminist either for that matter. But it would have to be better than that Vice President of the College Republicans at college. That was brutal.
-
Violet Socks says:
Shall I just leave? Yeah, I’ll just leave.
-
will says:
Nope. You’re my fellow Virginian! Plus, she scares me a little.
-
The Countess says:
Violet, PZ and Chris Clark can fight over which one of them, plus Will, is the father of my love child, Alon. He looks like all of them. I could always pull a “Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell” on them. I you aren’t familiar with that Gina Lollabrigida movie, rent if from Netflix. I’m sure Netflix has it. It’s a cute little romantic comedy.
-
The Countess says:
Will, you have never had absinthe? You have not lived properly! I can introduce you to good absinthe, and then we can have all sorts of fun.
I don’t want to scare you, Will. I’m not a raging feminist. I’m a fun-loving feminist who is “sex-positive”, for lack of a better term. I hate “sex positive feminist”. It implies there’s such a thing as a sex-negative feminist, and their ain’t no such animal.
I’m just a good forty-something gal who likes to have fun, but I will hold fast to my beliefs and opinions, just like any other feminist.
-
The Countess says:
No, Violet, don’t leave! I want you to be around while Will gets over his terror of me. ;)
-
Violet Socks says:
Mighty gallant of you, Will. But the Countess scary! Gosh, if I were a man I think Trish would sound like fun in bed. (I’m not a man, of course, and I think Johnny Depp sounds like fun in bed. But I’m just over here in the corner smoking opium and sucking down absinthe. Ignore me.)
-
will says:
Of course I was kidding. I dont find you any more unreasonable than I am.
-
will says:
VioletS:
Why did I just get college flash backs to a waster girl giggling in the corner?
Now might be a good time to mention that I saw the Dead around 50 times.
-
Violet Socks says:
By the way, I just want to rise up from my incoherent absinthe-soaked opium haze to say: I am the same age as Johnny Depp and Elle Macpherson, and I don’t look like either of them. Life is hard.
-
will says:
Ha! I am only 38! Of course, I dont look as good as them either.
-
The Countess says:
Nobody looks as good as Johnny Depp. I first saw Elle Macpherson when she gained weight for “Sirens”. What a great movie. When I saw her after she lost 20-30 pounds, I thought she looked like a toothpick. I liked her much better when she was heavier.
-
The Countess says:
I can be unreasonable with the best of them, but I prefer to call it “opinionated.” ;)
-
will says:
I agree completely about Sirens. She was much hotter as a larger woman
-
Violet Socks says:
Huh. I’ve never seen Sirens, and when I looked it up I found that according the IMDB, Elle is actually a tad younger than Johnny and I. Well, we didn’t need her anyway. Johnny and I can get along much better without her.
Will, if you’re only 38 and the Countess is 45, that must have been quite the wild ride in the desert when Alon was conceived. Trish was 27, you were 20….
-
will says:
I was actually training (swimming) at the Univerity of Arizona during that summer. So maybe I am Alon’s daddy.
-
The Countess says:
Violet, you have to rent “Sirens”. That’s one of my favorite movies. I love how the minjister’s wife wakes up her sexualtiy in that movie.
Have you seen Johnny Depp in “The Ninth Gate”? I saw the movie, and now I’m curious to read the book. The movie was very good. Of course, there’s always “Chocolat”, with him and Juliette Binoche. A real feel-good movie.
-
The Countess says:
Will, is that the University of Arizone at Tucson? I drove past the college when I stayed in Tuscon for a convention each year three years in a row. If you were able to kick away all the scorpions and poison ivy, we might have made the way for Alon. I was there in the years before The Royal Spawn was born. ;)
-
The Countess says:
I wholeheartedly agree with you, Will. Elle looked great with some meat on her bones. She was much sexier in “Sirens” than she was in any of her Sports Illustrated pictures. Plus, she could eat Stilton cheese and make it look sexy.
-
will says:
Yes Countess. U of A at Tucson. I was there summer of 1987, swimming my butt off. I even had tan marks through my suit. two hours in the am. Two hours in the afternoon.
-
The Countess says:
I only saw the Dead once, and it was fun. The crowd on the ground got so hot the staff had to cool them off with fire hoses. This was in mid-summer, and it was over 100 degrees. There were a lot of Deadheads slipping in the mud.
My favorite concert was Peter Gabriel. I was up and dancing with everyone else when he started on “Sledgehammer”. He got a standing ovation for that one.
-
will says:
mmmmmm stilton. My dad gave me a big box of cheese for Christmas. Lots of blue’s….mmmmm good.
-
Violet Socks says:
I’ve seen a number of Johnny Depp movies, including Chocolat, but not Ninth Gate. It was panned by the critics. But it’s Polanski, so how horrible can it be? The book, though (The Club Dumas) was impossibly annoying. Arturo Perez-Reverte is highly overrated.
Two of my favorite Johnny Depp movies are Dead Man and Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas — not because of their Deppness so much as their cinematic quality.
-
will says:
I’ve seen some good concerts. The Dead all over. Ventura county Fairgrounds. Jerry Garcia on Broadway. Dizzy Gillispe at UVa. Dylan at UVa.
Wynton Marsellis in Richmond.
But never Peter Gabriel.
-
The Countess says:
That sounds just like the kind of tan you’d get in Tucson, Will. I was there in ‘87, for a couple of days in the summer. We might have passed each other on the street.
I loved Tucson. I want to take The Count there for a vacation. We’ll stay at the Arizona Conquistador Hotel and Spa, and eat great steaks. I’ll order the prickly pear cactus jelly fruit combo for breakfast, and then get a massage. I know how to live. ;)
-
will says:
It was a HOT summer. We probably walked by each other.
You should take the Count there.
I need to take my honey and kids there. My best friend still lives there. (Crazy Mormom gun-toting, gun collecting guy.)
-
The Countess says:
I remember that summer. Yes, it was VERY hot. I spent all my time at the pool or reading at my casita and drinking beer.
If you ever go back, let me know. We can meet and get some good food. The food there was excellent.
I went with my ex to the Arizone Sonora Desert Museum, and we had a blast. Actually, I had more of a blast than he ddi. We also drove to the top of Mount Lemmon one year. The switchbacks were new to me. The air was so clean I saw a double rainbow. That was impressive.
-
will says:
I went to the Sonora Desert Museum and Mount lemmon that summer too.
My friend was dating a woman whose family had a cabin on Mount Lemmon. Somehow they owned a cabin in the middle of nowwhere there. It was unbelievable.I’d happily meet you and the Count.
-
Violet Socks says:
Aww…this is so sweet! Finally, after all these years. Can’t wait to tell Alon.
-
The Countess says:
Will, I knew a bunch of crazy, gun-toting, gun-collecting guys when I was a kid. My ex is also a crazy, gun-totling guy. We used to get venison every year when I was married to him. I do miss my deer meat.
I eat quail now. I had elk once, too. A guy I knew from my stagehand days used to get his own elk and marinate the meat. He always brought extra to gigs because it was so good everyone wanted it. Hunters are cool. They don’t waste anything. He made suits from deer hide. This guy was somethjing else.
-
The Countess says:
Wiill, when we find the time and money to make a trip to Tucson, we will definitely be happy to meet you, your honey, and the kids. I’d want to go to Nogales, and haggle with the locals again. I haggled so low once that I was thrown out of the store. That’s a point of pride for me. I haggled too low for the locals, and pissed one off. I used to buy my vanilla in Nogales.
I saw a road runner on Mystery Mile when I was there. My ex and I saw a bobcat run across the road at the Sheraton Conquistador. Those cats where everywhere, apparently. We had a casita instead of a hotel room. I preferred casitas. They were like efficiency apartments. I spent all my time either in the pool or on my deck. I even had a pet lizard. I gave it a saucer of water, and it came up every day to drink. We backed up to the desert. I think I saw a little black scorpion in our room, but I didn’t kill it. I figured it was there long before I was. It could have run of the bathroom. ;)
-
The Countess says:
Will, when I did stagehand work, I did lighting for a crapload of concerts. The Eagles. The Stones. Phil Collins. Clapton. Aerosmith. The Count is still jealous about me doing Aerosmith because the crew always got to see the concerts for free. I had a better view than the people with special tickets. Plus I had free food. I stood next to Steve Tyler. He must have been 5′6″ and 130 pounds soaking wet. I had a lot of fun at those concerts.
Peter Gabriel does a concert about once every ten years. Next time he does one, you should check it out. He puts on a good concert, and his fans always go nuts. I’m a major Peter Gabriel fan. I had a chance to work one of his concerts but I was working on an indie film at the time. I’m glad I worked on the film, even though it sucked, but at least I got the call to work on the concert. It woudl have been great.
Mount Lemmon was gorgeous. I thought it looked like the town where we lived when we reached the summit. At its’ base, it looked like the desert. It was interesting seeing the trees change as we drive towards the top. It was very cool up at the top, unlike the desert at the base.
I’m sure Alon will get a major kick out of all this, Violet. Someone has to tell him he was spawned in Tuscon. ;)
-
The Countess says:
Someone pass the Stilton to me. No absinthe. Absinthe and Stilton don’t mix. I think Stilton and port go well together.
-
The Countess says:
Violet, you have to see “The Ninth Gate”. The movie wasn’t that bad. I like it a lot. I found it on tape for five bucks. Couldn’t pass that up. Plus, I like Roman Polanski movies, even though he had sex with a 13 year old. If you haven’t seen “Repulsion”, find it!!!! That movie is downright uncomfortable. Catherine Deneuve is one of my favorite actresses, and she is the star of this one. I love Deneuve.
-
Violet Socks says:
Yeah, shitty personal ethics never seemed to impinge on anybody’s directorial talent. Polanski is kick-ass.
I may crash soon, but y’all enjoy yourselves. When I come back here in the morning I don’t want to find the thread all littered with dirty glasses and crumbs and underwear, okay?
-
Alon Levy says:
If I was conceived in Tucson, does it mean I have an American citizenship I don’t know about? It’ll spare me the headaches of getting a visa… plus, I’ll be able to strike.
I’ll happily meet any of you guys too, if I ever get near where you live. I might be in Boston this summer, Trish, if it’s close to where you live and if you’re still going to be there instead of in Hawaii.
-
will says:
Eagles, Clapton, Aerosmith?? Excellent. I am jealous.
What made you stop?
-
The Countess says:
Will, I stopped because the work was seasonal and it all dried up. I needed a full time job that paid better than part time. I didn’t want to stop, but I needed better work. I do miss it though. I’m sure I could get back into it if I started doing lighting work again for community theatre. I don’t have the physical stamina to do it anymore, though.
-
The Countess says:
I’m not near Boston, Alon, but I could take the train into Boston to meet you. I’ll still be here over the summer. We’re planning to move to Hawaii next winter.
It wouldn’t matter where you were conceived. Citizenship is based upon where you were born.
-
will says:
Citizenship based on conception? Well, it would give the border patrol people a more interesting job? “Judge, their clothes came off the second they walked through the gates in Nogales into Arizona. We couldnt stop them!”
-
Alon Levy says:
I know, but presumably you didn’t travel all the way to Israel while pregnant to bear me.
Alright, then… we can talk about meeting a few months from now, when I know for sure whether I’m going to be anywhere near Boston.
-
Txfeminist says:
I just read all of this. What a great conversation! Wish I could join in. It’s killing me!
Anyway, all I can say is, I already knew we were all kindred spirits.
When you all go to Tucscon, let me know. :-)
-
will says:
Wow. I never knew that hanging out with the feminists would involve rock & roll, gettting wasted and hot monkey sex!
I call Txfeminst!
-
Violet Socks says:
But Will, you hang out at Pandagon, the home of feminist hot monkey sex and rock&roll!
As someone who’s been a feminist and hung out with like-minded people all my life, I’ ve always been amazed at the prudish feminazi stereotype. Women who insist on being in charge of their own lives are the most liberated of creatures in every respect.
-
will says:
VioletS:
There is so much I have to learn!
-
The Countess says:
Yup, Will, we’re feminists, and we like rock ‘n roll, getting wasted (well, for me, getting tipsy) and hot screeching monkey sex. Sure bucks the stereotype of feminists, doesn’t it? ;)
-
The Countess says:
Txfeminist, feel free to jump in and join us.
Absinthe, all around!
-
Violet Socks says:
Hey, Trish, are you really moving to Hawaii? Permanently?
And yes, Tx, jump in! The female to male ratio is favoring Will heavily at this point, but I’m choosing to pretend Johnny Depp is here too.
-
will says:
violets! I’m not good enough????!!!?? I’m not hot enough??!?! You have to pretend I’m Johnny Depp?
Ouch!
-
Violet Socks says:
hee hee…At first I thought you were calling me Violets plural. You can just call me Violet, no S.
But no — I’m just saying, if this is a multiple, there need to be more men. Multiple women and one man might be fun for the guy, but jeez.
-
will says:
“But no — I’m just saying, if this is a multiple, there need to be more men. Multiple women and one man might be fun for the guy, but jeez.”
Now you are saying that I am not man enough for three Feminists? et tu, VSocks?
-
The Countess says:
Yes, Violet, I am really moving to Hawaii. We hope to be in Hawaii next year at this time. The Count grew up in Hawaii, and he’s been itching to move there. No complaints from me, fer sure.
I think we need more men. All us gals and Will is not an even mix. How about MIchael Berube? He’s cute and smart. Smart is sexy. And we have to add PZ Myers. We can have intelligent, sexy, grouchy conversation and debate with him. Definitely get Chris Clark in the mix. And we’ll get all three men addicted to absinthe. Wow, what a party!
Hmmm.. more sexy men to add to our party… Johnny Depp, Jason Isaacs, Naveen Andrews, and Gabriel Byrne. Now we have a real party!!
-
Violet Socks says:
I do have lots of male visitors and commenters here, but they haven’t discovered this thread. This thread is just Will and us — and Johnny Depp.
Who are Jason Isaacs and Naveen Andrews?
-
The Countess says:
Naveen Andrews plays Sayid on “Lost”.
Jason Isaacs was in a lovelly little romance called “Passionada”. That’s a sweet little movie. He was also in “Event Horizon”. He played Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies. Lucius was quite an evil dude. That long blonde hair and velvet clothing he wore looked scrumptious.
Us, Will, and Johnny Depp? That ain’t too shabby. ;)
-
will says:
Ok, ok, ok..enough with this adding more men into the mix. If they cant find this thread, too bad for them.
Where in Hawaii?
I love Kauai! So green.
-
will says:
On a Johnny Depp note, a friend wrote to Depp chastizing him from his alleged anti-american/pro-french attitude. Depp actually found the friend’s phone number, called him and had a very nice conversation.
Friend came away impressed with Depp. Friend’s wife still wanted to hump Depp.
-
Violet Socks says:
Johnny Depp is no more anti-American than I am. He’s anti-Bush, anti-this ridiculous administration. Along with more than half of Americans, I might add. I blushed with shame for our country when those morons at the Capitol renamed the french fries “freedom fries.” I recall what Depp said about that, something like the men and women in charge of our government basically standing up to the world and announcing, “Yes! We’re idiots!” My thoughts exactly.
What’s wrong with your friend, Will?
-
Janeen says:
I know you were looking for more men, but please, please can join in on this party! I’ll bring some Stilton and Port. Oh, and you all can have Johnny Depp if I can get some Chris Clarke action.
-
Violet Socks says:
Another hot 40ish babe for Will! Come on in!
-
Janeen says:
Why, thanks! This is way more fun than the work I’m supposed to be finishing up. I feel like I should know Will, as we obviously hang out at the same blogs, but I don’t think I do. He obviously has great taste.
-
Johnny Depp says:
Thanks, Will. I did call a few people about that. It upset me that anybody thought I was anti-American. Ended up having some good conversations with people. What’s your friend’s name? And, um, what’s his wife’s name? What’s she look like?
And I do enjoy a glass of absinthe.
-
will says:
He just overreacted. He’s a ……well, he’s a …..how can I say this….He’s a Republican.
Hi Janeen. Welcome to the party!
-
Alon Levy says:
I heard a skit once about how in France they renamed American cheese to idiot cheese in retaliation.
-
txfeminist says:
Idiot cheese!!! HAhahahahaha! that’s perfect.
*sitting back watching the party — peeping in from time to time*
-
The Countess says:
We have to get txfeminist in on the game. She can’t just sit on the sidelines.
::: handing txfeminist a glass of absinthe:::
-
Violet Socks says:
Drink up, gals, ’cause we don’t seem to have any men tonight. Maybe Johnny will come back.
-
will says:
I agree Countess. TxFeminist doesnt strike me as much of a voyeur. She’ll definitely jump into the action.
-
Violet Socks says:
Oops — cross-posted with you, Will. Glad to see you! Always nice to have some testosterone in the room.
I was over at PZ’s today and saw that Alon had alerted Dr. Myers to this conversation. Better watch out, Trish, if PZ finds out you were also with Will and Chris Clarke that summer! I sense a Danielle Steele plot developing.
-
will says:
I’m happy to provide some male parts to this site tonight!
-
Violet Socks says:
Will, sorry I haven’t been over here to enjoy your parts, dude. I’m searching for a new host for my blog, one with larger…um….parts.
-
Alon Levy says:
Hey, I’m a man… but I’m more of a voyeur than a participant, especially when everyone else is so much more experienced than I am.
-
Violet Socks says:
But Trish is your mother! Entirely too Oedipal to have you join in. You’re welcome to watch and comment, of course, and hope that Freud’s theory of the primal scene is as bogus as his theory of penis envy.
-
will says:
Plus, as attractive as I am sure all of these ladies are to me and I to them, Alon might be scared by seeing a bunch of 40ish people gettin’ it on. His version of reality is still too size 0-2. In his world, a size 4 is looking large, I am afraid.
At my age, I am more concerned with personality.
-
The Countess says:
Will, you need to look at paintings of women done by the Pre-Raphaelites. Those women look real, and they are beautiful. They aren’t stick figures like the size 0 - 2 you’re talking about.
Here’s a link. This is what real women look like, and we aren’t scary at all. Scroll down to the bottom and click on the thumbnails of the paintings.
The Pre-Raphaelites are my favorite painters.
-
The Countess says:
Oh, no, PZ Myers knows about our debauchery? He’ll probably join in if he has a free moment from trashing Intelligent Design. ;)
Am I Will’s mother? I lose track of all my affairs, but those affairs certainly have been very enjoyable. I am a free spirit, after all.
-
The Countess says:
Janeen, jump right in. I’ll take the Stilton and port from you. ;)
Would you like some absinthe or some cabernet?
:::handing beautiful Italian hand-painted wine glass to Janeen. The Countess believes in drinking only from the most exotic and beautiful glasses.:::
-
The Countess says:
Wait a minute… am I Alon’s mother or Will’s mother? So many men, so little time. ;)
-
will says:
You missed my point Countess. I do not need a Size 0-2 woman. (remember Elle in Sirens??!?)
But, I am afraid that poor Alon does not fully understand female beauty.
As Alon will learn one day, woman definitely get better as they age. I will spare him the graphic details for now.
-
Violet Socks says:
But how do you know this about Alon, Will? Private communications? Inquiring minds want to know!
-
will says:
No private communications with Alon.
Those under twenty are surrounded by females with low slung size 0 jeans. (I know this because I saw a promo for the O.C.)
-
The Countess says:
Here’s another web site for you to look at for real women’s bodies, Will:
I especially like the first image on that page. She’s very pretty.
-
will says:
Countess!!! How many times do I have to tell you that I am very familiar with real women’s bodies. Ok, so I’ve admitted it. I am a slut. So sue me.
Besides, my dad is an ob/gyn.
-
The Countess says:
Ah, you’re right, Will. I forgot about Elle in “Sirens”. I thought you were talking about yourself. Alon should look at the links I gave here. They’re still beautiful women. I like those vintage erotic photographs. Talk about a journey back in time!
Women get better as they age regarding sexuality, too. The more experience, the better.
The smallest I’ve ever been was a size 6, and I was sick all the time. Once I got to a normal weight, my health improved. There’s another good reason for women to be a little heavy - it’s better for your health.
-
The Countess says:
Sorry, Will, I posted my second comment before reading your latest one.
A slut is a good thing to be, Will. I cheer you!
:::raising glass of absinthe in a cheer to Will:::
-
will says:
I wasnt going to mention that the sex is much better with women in their 30’s and 40’s than in their 20’s. But since Trish brought it up, it is. Much better.
They know what they want. They know what works.
-
Alon Levy says:
Will, I met my girlfriend on the Internet. I couldn’t care less for how she looks. As it happens she looks good, but I didn’t know it until after we got together. I love her for her intelligence and her personality, not her looks. Now, I have no idea what her size is, because I don’t know anything about women’s clothes’ sizes. I only know small, medium, large, and I know shoe sizes.
Trish, I couldn’t concentrate on the vintage erotic photographs (which I thought were okay); I could only think “Why the hell do they insist on having blowjob thumbnails”?
There’s no need for incest: I can watch you and learn. And even if there is incest, what if it’s consensual? As for Freud, the science liberals got to me first, so I think psychanalysis is a pseudoscientific fraud who shouldn’t be taken seriously, sexism or no sexism.
-
Violet Socks says:
Blowjob thumbnails. I had no idea what you were talking about; went back to the site and was still mystified; finally noticed the banner ad with the thumbnails. Jesus!
There is nothing like hard-core porn to make sex look grotesque. The only time I’ve ever seen a porn film was when I was in college, and I came downstairs one day to find my gay roommate and his gay friends having a laugh-riot over a hetero porn film they’d rented for kicks. I was appalled at how ugly and unpleasant the sex looked. Very…um…dry, if you take my meaning, and totally faked, totally mechanical. I said to the guys, “No, no! hetero sex isn’t like that! Really!” I felt like an apostle for a misunderstood religion.
-
will says:
Now there is a religion I could get behind!
(Shame on you Countess. I meant hetro sex, not VioletSocks!)
-

I didn’t even notice the blowjob thumbnails. I was concentrating on the vintage postcard thumbnails under them. They are very pretty.
No, no … no incest. That’s so wrong. I never considered voyeurism before. I’m not sure whether or not I would go for that.

There is nothing like hard-core porn to make sex look grotesque.
Is there any porn site that doesn’t brim with pictures of blowjobs with oversized dicks?

Johnny Depp, mmmmm. Warms the aging cockles of my heart very nicely, thank you. And I wouldn’t need to supplement my Depp with any liquor either, thank you very much.
Thanks for the pic, Violet. I resolutely DO NOT go about mooning over famous people (except for that crush I had on Anne Bancroft in The Graduate–never mind) but oh dear, Depp is a worthy exception.

Violet says:
I’m not a celebrity-follower either, but I swear to God, Johnny Depp has the most beautiful face I’ve ever seen. Of anybody — male or female.
Thanks for posting on this thread — now I’ve an excuse to look at Johnny again after a month.

You just like him because of his bad teeth as a Pirate.
