Because People in power are Stupid 2007-12-22 03:31:21 PM  
Articles like this are a right wing-nut's wet dream... it gives them a cause to whine about morality while at the same time gives them an excuse to try to ban "offensive" material.

-and this guy in the article is pathetic. Dude, if you are "addicted" to porn then just put down the penthouse and quit wanking so much.

(Is he wanking in this picture?)

A year? 21%?

What is this "porn" of which you speak?

ehhhh, you get burned out on internet porn after awhile. I'm up to erotically asphyxiating hookers, having them asphyxiate me.

FTFA:"Porn is a drug unlike any other," Layden said. "It's free, it's available 24-7, it's piped into our house, and it gets you up or down. It's a very potent drug."

Bwahahahahaha. It just gets me up.

Honestly, it's time for a "Romero" tag to be created.

 
Shvetz 2007-12-22 03:56:27 PM  
This is why we need to take a cue from the Chinese. Our government needs to implement programs like "Net Nanny," to protect us from ourselves.

Also, I need the FCC to censor my XM radio. After I called up XM and paid money for their service, I can no longer stop the stream of filth coming in from the Opie & Anthony show. The only remedy is to turn the channel, or turn off my radio altogether.

I for one appreciate the fact that porn is so much easier to get now than it was back when I was a teenager in the '80s. Technology is not evil.

Free? Available 24-7? Piped into your house?

I'm afraid that doesn't sound like any drug I've ever heard of.

Epsilon: I for one appreciate the fact that porn is so much easier to get now than it was back when I was a teenager in the '80s. Technology is not evil.

While I do agree with your point in theory... When I was first burping my worm as a teenager the total lack of porn material meant I was able to find things arousing that were only slightly arousing in principle. This meant that my c0ck was well trained to perform even when faced with, say, a toothless lardarse girl.

These days, thanks to the intertubes, if I can imagine it, I can find it, give or take anyway. The consequence is that my c0ck now expects only the best, and so these days in real life I am only able to get it up when confronted by 3 women and a couple of gerbils in a bath of leftover chow mein :(

FTA: NEW TAMPA - The Rev. Brian James' journey down a road of self-described "moral failure" began two years ago when he started viewing pornography over the Internet. But it ended Dec. 10, he said, when staff members of St. James United Methodist Church discovered a pornographic image inside a photocopy machine.

You're doing it wrong.

 
CravenMorehead 2007-12-22 04:10:18 PM

That may be why he said it was "a drug unlike any other". Just sayin'.

Ruh roh, some people are addicted to things. What are we going to do. Let's not say it's the addicts fault, hell no, it's obviously the fault of what they're addicted to! Burn it! Burn it!

That's so true, I was just thinking about this yesterday when I was repairing the cocaine faucet. You can't imagine how much that drip was costing me.

sadly , it costs Drew a lot of money in terms of bandwidth to add a new tag apparently. hence why even the long overdue Darwin tag hasnt happened yet

Wait...

There is no set standard as to when a person becomes officially labeled an Internet porn addict, but some studies say that when a person watches more than 5 1/2 hours a week, that's cause for concern,

thats only a half hour of pr0n a day or so

"We lived in a busy house last week, and we live in a really busy house this week," he said. "I dropped my kids off at school, and I'm going to pick them up. When people call, I'm going to answer."

ORLY? what a STRANGE concept...

If it weren't for internet porn, there would be a lot more rapings.

Without internet porn it would be like being back in the '70's pre video days and relying on an old battered copy of Swank or Oui found in the bushes near school.

/Actually without internet porn I would still have use of my videos and dvds....so there!!!

Uh, colloquialize much?
