A little bit of Nowhere

Ever notice how it's the little things in life that amuse us so much? More to the point, ever notice how it's the silly little idiocies in life that amuse us more than anything else? Well, this is not as much ''the little blog that could'' as it is ''the blog that enjoys going up the down escalator in your local mall.'' Will it have anything of real importance? No, probably not. But enjoy the ride never the less!

Give Porn A Chance?

(or, just a thinly-veiled excuse to hurt peoples' minds)

It's little bits of nowhere like this that will surely tarnish whatever shreds of credibility I ever have left for as long as I shall live. I could become a rich philanthropist, donating millions of dollars to charities and hospitals, and in the end during my eulogy people will remember me like this: "hey, wasn't he the guy who asked us to give porn a chance in one of his blogs?"

Let me add a disclaimer here: I'm not asking any of you support, indulge in or plan to make porn. If you want to, it's your choice; don't let me stop you, and please don't tell me (no really...please don't tell me. I don't need mental images like that). My argument is that amongst the many weapons we find out there in the world, porn is an astonishingly powerful and overlooked one. It's quite possible to stop an entire revolution by blanketting the area with Penthouse magazines instead of smart bombs. Consider how the porn market generates incredible revenue, no matter how badly-made it is. Consider that people pay considerable dollars to acquire it. Consider that in some circles, porn is a form of currency. Consider, when you get right down to it (pardon the phrasing), sex sells, period.

If only we could find a way to use the immense power of porn for good! There are so many untapped resources out there in the porniverse that an entrepeneur could (again, pardon the phrasing) harness for the betterment of humanity! Although...I have absolutely no idea just how the hell anyone could pull it off with these:

Furniture Porn: http://www.furnitureporn.com

Puppet Porn: http://www.badmovieplanet.com/unknownmovies/reviews/rev275.html

Evangelical Puppet Porn: http://www.xxxchurch.com/patrol/commercial.asp

Might Morphin Power Porn: http://www.fightingperverts.com/home.html

"I Can't Believe It's Not Porn!": http://www.machall.com/april/

Today's Lesson: never underestimate the power of links sent to you by friends over the years. That, and you should have learned by now that whenever I make a post like this, it's only going to hurt your brain. (In which case: mission accomplished!)

However, I will leave you with this article, just to balance things out:
