ZARDOZ FRIDAY NIGHT ADVICE

by | Jun 26, 2020 | Advice | 276 comments

GET MOVING! THE VORTEX IS HAVING A DINNER PARTY.

ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN ONES. FRIEND STEVE SMITH HAD BUSINESS TO ATTEND TO, AND FRIEND SEA SMITH IS … BUSY. SO ZARDOZ WILL USE THIS NIGHT TO INSTRUCT THE CHOSEN ONES ON ETIQUETTE, AND CLEANSING.

GO FORTH AND COMMENT!

FIRST UP – THE HORRIBLE ADVICE SOUGHT IN “SLATE

Q: I have been with my husband (I’m a woman) for almost eight years. We are in our mid-30s, have a good relationship, and are happy. We communicate pretty well and are good partners and co-parents to our three young kids.

Now to the obvious “but”: Sex has started to gross me out. I can’t explain it, but it just seems so nasty. This isn’t really an issue of mismatched libidos—his is slightly higher than mine, but we have always compromised on this well. I still get horny and sometimes masturbate on my own a few times a week, which he doesn’t know about.

.

A: WHAT CAN YOU DO? REJOICE! YOU HAVE REACHED PENIS SATORI. YOU HAVE COME TO REALIZE THAT THE PENIS IS EVIL! WHILE IT IS A SHAME YOU HAVE ALREADY CREATED NEW LIFE, TO PLAGUE THE WORLD WITH THE RACE OF MEN, AS ONCE IT WAS…AT LEAST YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE IN YOUR HEART.

UNGOOD. DOUBLE PLUS UNGOOD.

NEXT, WE MOVE TO “MANNERS

Q: Could you please advise me on the acceptability of blowing on one’s soup to cool it before eating? Is this a practice that can be done only en famille?

If it is ever proper, what is the right way to do it: to blow on a spoonful or on the cup or bowl? How gently or vigorously may one blow? If it is never proper, why not?

If it would be proper but for a family member objecting to it, which family member trumps: the one who thinks it disgusting, or the one who fears scalding her tongue?

A: FORTUNE, AND REASONABLE SOUP TEMPERATURES, FAVORS THE BOLD. SHOULD ANY OBJECT, SMASH THEIR FACE DOWN INTO THEIR SOUP, HOLDING THEM THERE UNTIL THE FILTH OF THEIR BRUTALITY IS CLEANSED. SHOULD ANY EXPRESS DISMAY AT YOUR ACTION – CLAIM “HANGRINESS”.

“IMMA BLOW ON MY SOUP.” “No!”

ZARDOZ HAS SPOKEN.

      Is that what you are smoking?

      • Trigger Hippie

        Some kinda Kush stain I forget the specifics of.

  2. westernsloper

    How gently or vigorously may one blow?

    I have always preferred somewhere in the middle.

  3. westernsloper

    I still get horny and sometimes masturbate on my own a few times a week, which he doesn’t know about.

    So is he.

    • hayeksplosives

      Do you think he know when he’s done it?

      • westernsloper

        Probably. Unless he is a sleeping pillow humper.

    • Rhywun

      The report concluded by suggesting that the most viable path to prosperity for low-income Americans was becoming a wealthy family’s pet.

      LOL me neither. Excellent trolling – I think.

    ZARDOZ better watch out. Antifa might try to tear him down.

      ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN WARNING ONE. THANK YOU, BUT ZARDOZ HAS TWO ADVANTAGES NO STATUE HAS – 1) GRAVATRONIC DRIVE. NO SOY SOAKED BRUTAL WILL BE ABLE TO REACH ZARDOZ, AND 2) THE BRUTAL EXTERMINATORS WOULD CLEANSE THE LOT OF THEM. ZARDOZ HAS SPOKEN.

  5. Gustave Lytton

    ZARDOZ needs to show Seattle how to properly cleanse the CHOP. He can take any survivors to work in the grain fields (some training required).

    https://www.oregonlive.com/news/2020/06/protesters-resist-as-crews-arrive-to-dismantle-seattles-autonomous-protest-zone.html

    Workers were preserving artwork that had been painted on the wooden barricades, Zimbabwe said, adding that the department would work to return it to the people who created it.

    Guaranteeing it will be cost and take at least 3x what it should. Get some roll off dumpsters and start shoveling the shit. If they get in the way, shovel them too.

    • Mostly Peaceful JaimeRoberto

      Sam Zimbabwe. I wonder if that’s his real name. If not, I wonder how stupid you have to be to choose that name.

      • Chafed

        I’ll bet it’s real and he has no idea he shares a name with a colossal wreck.

    • Aloysious

      Why are those retardy little commies protesting the removal of ‘artwork’? They don’t believe in private property, right?

    • westernsloper

      The city should send the bill to the BLM organization for cleaning up the mess. I imagine in Seattle if you have a shabby yard with cars on blocks and a weed ridden front yard they will bother you to no end to clean it up. I also imagine if you have a neglected property that the city goes and mows they would add it to your property taxes like other cities. I see no difference. They claimed it and took it over for however long, they should pay for the clean up. It is the Marxist thing to do. Your property, you are paying to the collective for cleanup.

    • ZARDOZ

      ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN LABOR ADVISOR ONE. TOO WEAK TO WORK PROPERLY. WOULDN’T LAST LONG ENOUGH TO EVEN GET THE BULLET FROM ZED. ZARDOZ HAS SPOKEN.

      *Enter Daddy slipping on some brass knuckles*

    • Jarflax

      So we have to preserve the graffiti the vandals left while destroying our monuments? And you guys still think it would be wrong of me to go shoot leftists in the belly to watch them scream? Are you sure?

      • egould310

        Do not shoot leftists in the belly to watch them scream.

        They are already tormented. They thrive on violence. Let them burn themselves down.

      • Jarflax

        It is not themselves they are burning. I joke but I am increasingly convinced that we will be a socialist slave state within 30 years, and when we get there we will wish like hell we had started shooting earlier.

      • Spudalicious

        Graffiti, no. Breaking and entering with the intention of looting? Two center mass.

  6. Gustave Lytton

    Now to the obvious “but”: Sex has started to gross me out. I can’t explain it, but it just seems so nasty.

    that it’s gross and nasty and sticky

    I can connect the dots. Stop taking it up the ass and go back to boring vanilla PIV sex.

    • Sean

      Get a towel.

      • commodious spittoon

        Turn the lights off.

      • straffinrun

        Rape.

    • Mostly Peaceful JaimeRoberto

      It’s only gross and nasty and sticky of you are doing it right

      • Fourscore

        This guy gets it…

    • ZARDOZ

      EVIL! WRONGNESS!

      • Chafed

        If 13 and 17 are wrong then I don’t want to be right.

  7. hayeksplosives

    Maybe that lady who thinks sex is icky has recently become a Japanese school girl. But if she thinks healthy 30 yr old sex is icky, she better ask herself hard questions about whether they will take care of each other into old age.

    • Sean

      Ewwww…old people sex.

      • kinnath

        That’s right. Old people have sex.

      • ZARDOZ

        ONLY IF THEY ARE EVIL OLD PEOPLE!

      • kinnath

        Very Evil.

      • hayeksplosives

        What if the old people in question have had the evil vas deferens cut and tied. Is the penis still evil, ZARDOS?

      • egould310

        GILF fuck yeah!

  8. LJW

    Was sent a lovely work email late this afternoon. Basically said we’re done with our review we know who we are laying off and we will tell them on Monday, have a good weekend. Might just drink myself to death this weekend.

    • Sean

      Start working on your telling people off speeches.

      Or plan on going in early Monday and taking a dump on your manager’s desk.

      Preemptive strikes FTW.

    • hayeksplosives

      Ugh. a cliffhanger for the weekend. Why not send people home and let them figure out on Monday whose badges still work.

      Sucks man. Sorry.

    • egould310

      If you use both hands to flip everyone off, it’s known as “double eagles”.

      Good luck.

      Also, get your resumé in order this weekend.

      Also, fried chicken.

      • TARDIS

        I call it cranking it up to 11.

    • Trigger Hippie

      Shitty, man.

      I know we’re pretty much in the same area so if you need a lead on some short term gigs to help keep you afloat hit me back and I’ll try to arrange an exchange of emails. It would require working with your hands and I’m not sure if that’s something you’d want or feel the need to do. Either way, just offering a helping hand as an option.

      • egould310

        ???

    • DEG

      Best wishes.

    • R C Dean

      What’s the point of that email? Other than sadism, of course.

      • straffinrun

        Let me guess at the thinking, not that I necessarily agree. They want everyone to process the possibility that they will be let go and so will have any flares of passion tempered somewhat. Demoralizing for sure.

      • Sensei

        Last article I read on the process says you do it on Friday afternoons.

        Everybody is beat from the week and says “screw it” it’s the weekend and puts up less of a fight. Of course this means you are getting let go immediately.

      • straffinrun

        Yeah. Let’s be honest, there really isn’t a great time to tell people that. There are better bad options, though.

      • Sensei

        That’s the day of the week and time I got tossed the one time it happened to me!

        Our place never gives you any notice – they don’t want people to create a scene.

      • Gender Traitor

        My understanding, too, is that the end of the work week is the least bad time to let someone know. I don’t know if it makes a difference for the departing employee, but it also may cut down some on remaining employees talking about it among themselves. My employer has had very few layoffs, but for any termination under unpleasant circumstances, the usual drill is to send out a brief e-mail stating that “[X] is no longer an employee of the credit union.” It’s important that remaining staff know this because the former employee may remain a member with active accounts but should not be privy to information specific to employees.

        So sorry, LJW. To me, this was not handled well at all. If you want to stay with this employer after what they’ve just done, I hope you make the cut. If you don’t make it, I hope you can take some bit of comfort believing that in the long run, you’re better off not working for an organization that would carry out such a matter this way.

      • TARDIS

        My employer treated us this way decades ago, but all those shitty executives are long gone. We knew that cuts were coming and told not to worry. I had a VP tell me when I was a junior employee subject to the RLA that we were fine. Go ahead and buy a new car, a house, take a vacation. 90 days later, the letters went out. I was a young man then. A year later, we had readjusted and managed to go out for a Sunday breakfast. I saw that VP at IHOP. If I didn’t have recall rights, I think I would have launched myself across the table.

      • Sensei

        My thoughts exactly.

    • straffinrun

      Sorry. Booze does taste better imbibed under the sword of Damocles.

    • TARDIS

      Wow, that’s one shitty employer. Sorry. I hope you survive.

    • Ted S.

      The layoffs here have mostly been on Friday.

      People just didn’t show up to work on Monday, and who knows where they went? Ditto the people who left of their own accord.

    • J. Frank Parnell

      That sucks. The uncertainty is by far the worst part.

      I got laid off on Wednesday. I’d had a feeling for the last couple of weeks that something was up. I got a calendar invite on Tuesday for a one-on-one teams meeting first thing in the morning on Wednesday. Barely slept Tuesday night and was up early pacing around and shaking before the call.

      After it happened – and after I told my wife – I felt better than I’ve felt in weeks. Spent the morning touching up my resume and coming up with a plan, a list of people to contact and companies to check out, then took the kids to the pool for the afternoon, followed by dinner at Stone Brewing. I’m much happier right now than I was a week or two ago.

      • Trigger Hippie

        ‘After it happened – and after I told my wife – I felt better than I’ve felt in weeks.’

        Keep the faith!* My best friend found himself in a similar situation where the anxiety and stress of his prior job had ground him into an anti-depressant dependent mess with a semi shaky marriage. After ten years he took the leap prior to a lossed job and found himself working in a less stressful environment with better pay, better benefits, far more stable hours, the ability to drastically cut back on his medication and a happier marriage.

        Hell, even humble ol’ me somehow fell bass ackwards into a far better paying job recently. Do not despair!

        *Having my first drinks in over a month(feeling positively positive!). Once a year or so I abstain for several weeks just to prove I still can…plus, been kinda broke lately and I’ve never been so bad as to get the shakes so the timing was convenient to say the least. 😉

      • Trigger Hippie

        Awesome!

      • Sensei

        You’ll go through various stages and ups and downs as it progresses. Take some time to clear your head and get a plan together, but not too much time.

        Keep your chin up and best of luck!

      • RAHeinlein

        Sorry to hear about the lay-off, but glad you are feeling positive. Best wishes to you and your family.

    • Gustave Lytton

      Long ago, i had the day before Thanksgiving off and scheduled to work Turkey day. Went in Thursday and quickly found out that I was going to be laid off and the others had been notified on Wednesday (my day off). Of course my own manager couldn’t tear themselves away from dinner to tell me. Waited until Friday or Monday to officially notify me.

    • Mojeaux

      Oh nooooo what a shitty way to sign off your employees for the weekend.

    • Hyperion

      There’s never been a better weekend to try to drink yourself to death. I might try it again.

      I’ve tried many times before, but it didn’t work, I just awoke with a bad hangover the next day, and that sucked.

  9. l0b0t

    Is there a Zoom thingie tonight?

    • Sean

      Yes.

      • Trigger Hippie

        One evening you’re going to view a login from a previously unseen account featuring a blank/black screen. You’ll hear a smoking induced raspy voice of an almost but not entirely recognizable accent speaking in a quick, clipped, yet somehow slightly drawling manner. This voice will utter incomprehensible yet clearly worded gibberish for several minutes before becoming overly self-conscious and leaving the chat.

    • R C Dean

      I am not surprised. I have been following Benelli and Beretta combat shotguns, and it . . . is . . . nuts.

      People getting serious, yo.

    • l0b0t

      That’s CRAZY! I think mine was $399 and I thought that was steep, having owned several Model 500s which could be picked up for $150.

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      That’s nuts.

      • commodious spittoon

        Just wait till you scroll down.

  10. DEG

    Sex has started to gross me out. I can’t explain it, but it just seems so nasty. This isn’t really an issue of mismatched libidos—his is slightly higher than mine, but we have always compromised on this well. I still get horny and sometimes masturbate on my own a few times a week, which he doesn’t know about.

    Seven year itch?

    I’m skipping the zoom tonight. I have a few things to do and need to be up early to go to PorcFest/ReopenNH rally tomorrow.

  11. DEG

    I am disappointed. I checked pennlive (db – it’s not the CDT. The CDT is still around) and nothing about the PA Supreme Court ruling on the dispute between Gauleiter Cooper and the legislature. I saw a news article earlier this week that there would be a ruling this week.

  12. mikey

    Went to the big city yesterday to pick up some chrome work and got to talking to the guy about the Vid. ” All this lockdown stuff is BS!” Then he goes on about how since some states have lifted a bit Montana real estate has gone crazy with escapees buying up stuff that has been on the market for months. Buyers bidding up properties sight unseen.

    Worried now about our quiet little cowtown (chosen because it wasn’ as scenic or cute as say Livingston/Bozeman or the Flathead). Couple of days ago there was a newish Aston Martin parked in front of one of the six bars in our three-block downtown. Everything else was the usaul pickup or ATV (street legal here). Then today there was a Tesla parked across the street at the community center. A friggin’ Aston Martin AND a Tesla!

    For those looking for a better place to live. Montana is NOT that place. It may look pretty in pictures, but in actuallity it sucks – stay away!

    • R C Dean

      *buys house in Montana*

    • Jarflax

      Lol, sorry, if I ever actually get to my financial goals I am moving to either Montana or Wyoming. I like mountains. Sue me.

      You know, that would have been a good nick name for that stoopid Weiner, Anthony.

      • Crusty Juggler

        There is my description and warning, and then the description and warning at the link.

    • commodious spittoon

      That was the grossest and yet most antiseptic thing I’ve ever seen, mostly on account of having been forewarned.

      • commodious spittoon

        Never mind getting them out, how did he chamber those rounds

        Exactly. I don’t want to know, but yes.

    • pistoffnick

      But how did they get in there in the first place? And why?

    • Ted S.

      I’m surprised it’s not Straffinrun who posted that.

      • commodious spittoon

        I hear he’s more into feet. Crusty feet.

      • Crusty Juggler

        More like onto. He lubricated and then diddled me in between each toe gap and then tickled the soles of my feet just to make it weird.

  13. straffinrun

    Watched Eastwood’s The Mule last night. Not nearly as good as Gran Torino, but not bad. Bradley Cooper and Andy Garcia were utterly worthless, cardboard characters. A few of the cartel members were interesting. Two stars.

    • Gustave Lytton

      Thanks for saving me the rental. I’ll wait.

    • TARDIS

      When I rate a movie as 2 stars it means “there’s 2 hours of my life I’ll never get back”.

      • straffinrun

        In comparison to the other crap that’s coming out these days. In fact, given that scale, it may be three or four. It had potential, but missed.

    • pistoffnick

      I liked both. But yes Gran Torino is better.

    • Tejicano

      I can’t remember where I saw it – on a flight or in a hotel somewhere. It wasn’t a waste of time when I had nothing else to do. However, Eastwood has mouthed some of the most iconic lines I’ve heard in my lifetime and there was not one thing he said in this movie which I can remember.

  14. LemonGrenade

    Gotta say, Gitche Gumee is one weird campground. It’s been kind of like staying at an abandoned amusement park. There were all sorts of attractions at one time, but they’re defunct and rotting now. On the plus side, the campsites are quite large, it’s right across the street from the shore of Lake Superior (my favorite great lake), and the few other occupied campsites have tons of kids. My children actually spent the entire day outside, riding their bikes, catching frogs and snakes. It’s been idyllic, but we’re heading off to Wisconsin tomorrow. Here’s hoping the Wisconsin Dells are as much low key fun.

    • straffinrun

      Living vicariously. Eats some cheese curds and be unintentionally racist for me, would ya?

      • LemonGrenade

        Definitely on the cheese curds. My daughter has been rubbing her hands in anticipation since we left Virginia.
        I’ll have to ponder the unintentionally racist bit; maybe a noose in a tree that’s really a garbage bag holder to keep it from the critters?

      • Gustave Lytton

        Uh, camping itself?

      • LemonGrenade

        I’m trying really hard but having trouble coming up with something actually racist about camping. When you take into account the competition for who has the best rig, classist maybe…

      • Agent Cooper

        Access to green space?

        RAYCISS!

      • LemonGrenade

        Jesus, everything really is racist now. I won’t worry about it, but keep smiling and saying, “how ya doing?” to everyone who passes my site, even if it makes black people uncomfortable to be questioned so closely.

      • Jarflax

        She’s also experienced a need to put on a show for the white people she encounters on the trail: a show that involves the avoidance of any stereotypes that negatively depict Black people.

        Hmm, I feel her pain. I for example deliberately avoid bith the Scots stereotypes of hacking sassenach to death with a claymore and the Jewish stereotypes of bathing in the bllod of gentile children, when I am in the woods.

      • Jarflax

        It is culturally appropriating Red Lives!

      • dbleagle

        There is nothing new in her whine. My graduate school thesis was on use patterns in the Pusch Ridge Wilderness just north of Tucson. Even in 1992 people were self segregating in how they used the wild lands. Hispanics in general gathered in semi developed open settings like formal picnic area. I encountered them deep in the PRWA but at a lessor rate to whites, generally under the age of 40. Nobody complained about “others” using the Wilderness Area. In general the complaint was the more inaccessable areas people liked to see less people- in the more accessible areas people accepted more people.

        If you don’t act high and mighty people will be accepting. But don’t try and have conversations deep in “back of beyond” because most people (and I include myself) go there to be away from people.

      • straffinrun

        TBH, Whenever I go back, the locals that say stuff that isn’t very sensitive on the racial front are far more tolerable than the local weeners that complain about how backwards Wisconsin is. The latter always assume that because I left that I would agree with their condescending bs. I don’t and let them know immediately.

      • mindyourbusiness

        If you get a chance to go by the Mustard Museum in Middleton, WI, try it. I’ve ordered mustards from ’em over the past couple years and they’ve got good stuff. And it’s one of the damndest museums you’ll ever see.

      • LemonGrenade

        That’s less than an hour away! Thanks for the tip, because we love hitting the less expected attractions.

      • egould310

        Have fun. Some of my best childhood memories are of family camping at the Dells.

    • pistoffnick

      Yoopers are a little different

      • LemonGrenade

        Spent a week in Copper Harbor last year and fell in love with the UP. This year, closer to pictured rocks. Too bad the governor is such a cunt or I’d consider relocating and just traveling each winter.

      • Gender Traitor

        Yay UP! Had a lakeshore picnic on the UP’s UP last summer. Didn’t see Pictured Rocks, but loved Munising. Next time, I’d rather stay there than in Marquette, but it may have been just that our hotel was too far into town and too far from the lake. Some day I’d like to make it out to Isle Royale.

    • pistoffnick

      Lake Superior is my favorite lake too

      • LemonGrenade

        Last year we hit all five during our summer vacation. We liked Lake Superior so much the husband deigned to apply a sticker to his truck. The very first sticker he’s allowed.

      • Tejicano

        So Y’all are saying that you favorite lake is superior?

      • pistoffnick

        I mean, it’s right there in the name.

      • LemonGrenade

        100% salt and shark free. Oh, and cold as fuck, but holy shit Copper Harbor is incredibly beautiful.

      • pistoffnick

        Some people used to organize shark watching parties on Wednesday nights here in Dolooth.

        It was mostly an excuse to drink on the beach, but you can never be sure.

      • Jarflax

        Not Titicaca?

    • PudPaisley

      Sugarload Mountain in Marquette is a nice hike with a good view if you haven’t been or looking for a morning activity.

      As a lifelong Wisconsinite, Carr Valley makes some of the best cheese curds. They have one or a couple outlet stores. One is in Mauston, WI, which is about 30 or 40 minutes west of the Dells on I 90.

      If not familiar, Devils Lake in the Dells is a nice place to swim and hike. Very clear water and a great hike around the lake. Another little hidden gem is Parfrey’s Glen. It’s a nice hour long walk or so. Nice quick little trip.

      If you head to SD on I 90, La Crosse has a really cool scenic overlook called Granddad Bluff. It’ll take you about 45 minutes out of your way to go. Cool little bar at the top called Alpine Inn that has good lunch food and you can sit outside on a nice big patio. There’s also a cool little river cruise you can take in La Crosse. Beautiful scenery and you get to go through a railroad bridge that pivots. It’s one of the oldest ones on the Mississippi.

      Just thought I’d throw those ideas out to you since it’s stuff in my neck of the woods. I live in La Crosse, which is a very cool town if you’ve never been.

      • PudPaisley

        One more thing. On the way from Marquette to the Dells, there’s a really cool waterfall in Watersmeet called Bond Falls. There’s a good ice cream place close by, but forget the name.

      • LemonGrenade

        This is great. Wisconsin Dells was sort of booked at the last minute as a stopover between the UP and Mt Rushmore, but we’ll be there for three or four days and we’re trying to find things to do. Thanks!

      Zardoz is far better as a meme than a movie. Like the difference between having sex with Alyssa Milano 20 years ago and having to listen to her today, better.

      • Ted S.

        You wouldn’t just gag her?

      • Jarflax

        You misunderstand. In the today part you don’t get the sexing. All you get is her lecturing you endlessly. The sex part doesn’t include any speech other than harder/faster. That is the difference between memeing Zardoz and watching Zardoz.

    There oughtta be a law!

    Indeed, the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, holding that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects against employment discrimination based on homosexuality or transgender identity, may point the way to a further, and necessary, extension of the Act that would protect political speech and activity.

    I hate cancel culture as much as anyone but I don’t see how piling more cruft on civil rights laws is any kind of desirable solution.

    In Oregon, the Worker Freedom Act prohibits employers from forcing workers to attend political meetings or distribute political communications.

    That’s interesting. So no “diversity” struggle sessions? Right…??

Of course, she had moved on to a bigger make work job before the damage caught up with her.

        In Tucson during the monsoon season it was sitting on a porch facing the mountains chips with various dips. The alcohol was strictly according to income. But there was always alcohol.

        Watching the lightning shows along the Front Range of the Catalina Mountains remains a favorite memory.

        One of my favorite memories was watching the monsoon season thunderstorms in Tucson.

        Sit on a porch with a clear view of the Front Range of the Santa Catalina’s with tort chips and plenty of dips. Lots of whatever alcohol we could afford was consumed as well. Watching the lightning play and the thunder boom. Magic.

        The Papago say the desert smells like rain. They are correct. The smell of creosote as the rain approaches is wonderful

    Goddamn Amazon to hell. They’ve went from the absolute best customer service in the history of commerce, straight to the bottom.

    I was just in a conversation with their so called customer support for more than an hour. There seems to be no longer any possibility of talking to anyone there outside of India and no possibility of any of the dot injuns helping you with anything.

    I just kept asking the guys to elevate it again, only to get their Injun cousin, probably in the same one room shack, who could also not help me. I wound up having the last guy begging me to not give him a bad review. And I tried, let me speak with your boss, and then ‘you’re fucked Rajib, I hope Bezos takes your ballz and spit roasts them on an open fire, asshole.

    Sex addict claims hot female gamers caused him to injure his penis

    the self-proclaimed sex addict reportedly resorted to using a Fleshlight to masturbate while watching the salacious gamers, which resulted in him “chaffing” his penis every day.

    The plaintiff’s randy pastime was “extremely painful” and caused him redness and mild infections that forced him to use “Neosporin on his tip to prevent necrosis,” per the 56-page document.

    Estavillo alleges in the transcript he even once ejaculated on his PC monitor, which caused his gaming system to short-circuit and resulted in a fire that temporarily caused his apartment to black out.
