(Some Guy) Interesting A group of students are getting paid to look at pornography all day to decide if it's obscene. Where were these jobs when subby was at college?   (pcpro.co.uk) divider line 40

So... they're going to publish a list of all the obscene stuff when they're done right? For um, peer review.

You had a job in college looking at porn, subby.

You just forgot to include the adjective, "hand".

If it wasn't obscene, would it be pornography?

Clowns are a Ten: If it wasn't obscene, would it be pornography?

My rule is: if I can fap to it, it's porn


/So that lightbulb over there? Yup, porn

My english comp professor made money in grad school prof reading porn for the Kinsey study. He said the bad part was they made they made them read it backwards to better detect errors.

Kinsey must have wanted to remove the bad grammar variable from the study. Can't have people not getting titillated because of the passive voice.

Sounds boring actually. Have you ever watched porn? Once you're done, it isn't very interesting.

They should combine this with a long term study of the affects of Jergens hand lotion.

I would so deliberately try to skew the results. "They're all atrocious and disgusting except the one with the man in the frog suit pouring corn syrup on the woman with the clown mask and rubber raincoat who is wielding a replica of Excalibur. That one's perfectly normal."

Cool Story Bro time!

My friend (cute Asian girl) had this job, working for netNanny or one of those services. Had to go and confirm what the bots had found was indeed porn. She would IM the better sites over to her bf.

I remember standing in front of a class with a bunch of buddies and having a woman come up and ask, "are any of you guys interested being part of our free beer tasting seminar?"

Had a friend who used to do this working for Saavis; basically responding to complaints or subpoenas regarding obscenity.

He never gave me links or anything, but had some great stories. Short Version: Most complaints are utterly BS, but he did have to see many things that could not be unseen.

CSB:

For my higher level psychology credits I would run a Psych 101 study for a PhD candidate. It was me and about 2 or 3 females. The study was the effect of music on sexual attitudes towards women or something like that. Anyway it was my job to run the projector. For about 30 - 40 minutes I would show still photographs of pornography. Anything from sensual erotica to serious hardcore bondage etc. Was a pretty funny way to earn some college credits.

FTA: "Drawing the line between erotic and hardcore pornography is probably the most difficult."

Yeah, that seems hard.

A friend of mine was a tester for Microsoft's rule 34 detector. For the first week or so of test scripts (downloading terabytes of images and video), he kept getting flagged by IT and was shut down a few times. "Dude, it's my job. Deal with it."

It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

It taught you how important, discipline is, in certain situations.

To be fair, passive voice porn sounds pretty lame. I was going to type an example but I'm pretty sure it was verging on ban-inviting so you can use your imagination on that one.

The job still exists.
It's at CCBill in Arizona.
I worked there in 2003 I think it was.
All the nasty-ass porn you can stand.
And I do mean ugly, fat and nasty.
It was hardly ever good.

So in his case it starts with a man hoovering spunk off a woman's breasts and face with his penis and ends with him breaking her cable before walking backwards out the door?

Frat boy 1) Dude, I just got an internship at McAfee
Frat boy 2) Excellent, that should look good on your resume

two weeks later

Frat boy 2) Dude, how's your internship at McAfee going?
Frat boy 1) I wound up working the parental controls testing. EIGHT HOURS OF GAY PORN EACH AND EVERY DAY! Damnit, I don't even want to see my own cock anymore. Come on, lets go to the BYOB strip club.
Frat boy 2) Or we could go picking up sorority chicks.
Frat boy 1) No, I need large amounts of alcohol and chicks in a setting where I can see they don't have cocks.

That is what made the old movie projectors great, being able to put them in reverse. Too bad it isn't as easy to do with dvds, or movie files.
