And now possibly one of the more unsettling things you’ll see on the YouTubes today: a fan video for “22 Going On 23” by Butthole Surfers using old movie footage.
NOTE: Contains vintage lingerie spanking.
BACKGROUND: I’ve a special place in my heart for Butthole Surfers. I didn’t discover them until their third album, Locust Abortion Technician, (which includes the above song), but it made a lasting impression. The album's opening dialogue alone (“If you see yr mom this weekend, be sure to tell her SATAN! SATAN! SATAN!”) not only constitutes one of the greatest moments in rockinrolls history ever, it’s also a brilliant statement of intent.
Everything about Butthole Surfers was twisted and demented. They sounded like genuinely unhinged and dangerous people to know. Even Paul Leary’s guitar sounded like some Lovecraftian-level horrorshow, like Cthulhu playing a solo using yr live nerves for strings and yr skull for an amp.
Or is that laying it on too thick?
No matter. For my money, Butthole Surfers are one of the few bands that truly sounded like a threat to Decent Society and Civilization As We Know It – so much so that even a major label deal and production from John Paul Jones couldn’t make them sound any safer.
FUN FACT: I saw them live only once. That was during the first Lollerpaloozer tour. It was around two in the afternoon, so the light and smoke show was mostly wasted. But Gibby Haynes made up for it by firing a pump-action shotgun into the crowd. Not even Ted Nugent ever did that.
Right. And with this song now firmly installed in yr heads, I am off to Singapore for a few days. Transmissions will continue as normal.
Hairway to Steven,

WANNABE IN LA
Jul. 28th, 2009 12:07 pmI’ve never had any real ambition to live in Los Angeles.
Until I saw that Meltdown Comics is throwing a party for Secret Identity (the book featuring Joe Shuster's BDSM comics years) – with Suicide Girls models acting out scenes from the book.

Oh my.

For those of you wondering, “Where is dEFROG’s April Fool’s post?”, the answer is: I don’t have one.
At least, I don’t think I do.
To explain: we don’t have AFD here in Hong Kong, or really anywhere outside of the US and the UK. And while I appreciate a practical joke as much as the next person, the fact is most AFD hoax stories aren’t funny, and have lost their impact ever since The Onion went online. I mean, what’s the point?
(Although The Telegraph’s story about how govt scientists have discovered how to convert swimming fish into electricity is pretty good.)
The other problem is that in the 21st Century, where real life is getting weirder every day, it’s getting harder to know when a story is a prank or not.
Here, I’ll show you.
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING STORIES IS FAKE?
1. From New Scientist: Two studies of hormonal changes associated with BDSM play find that spanking, bondage and flogging helps bring consenting couples closer together.
2. From Reuters: Reigning Miss Universe Dayana Mendoza visits Guantanamo Bay and blogs: "It was a loooot of fun!”
3. From Car And Driver: President Obama bans Chevrolet and Dodge from sponsoring NASCAR events as part of his auto industry bailout plan.
( Answers behind the jump! )
Honorable mention to the Conficker virus, which was real, but the way the non-tech media cheerfully milked the story for all it was worth as the new Y2K that will destroy the motherf***ing Internet and take yr bank account with it, it might as well have been a hoax. Threat Level’s hilarious coverage of the Interweb Conficker meltdown speaks volumes.
Won’t get fooled again,

ITEM [via Def Agent
lorilori ]: As the economy tanks, many women who lost their office jobs are doing freelance dominatrix work to supplement their incomes.

The “gig economy”, it’s called.
Interesting stuff, though probably a limited trend, and really, it’s only an excuse for me to post an Eric Stanton picture.
Good gig,

ITEM: A sex survey has found that Australians who enjoy bondage and discipline are not damaged or dangerous, and might even be happier than those who practise "normal" sex.
Yes, this is apparently news. Though to be fair, I guess it IS news to most people who know what little they know about it from Hollywood movies and TV shows, where BDSM people are usually portrayed as disturbed murderers who were raped as children.
Still, there was one interesting finding in this study:
Well, duh. I personally find that a good spanking cheers me right up.
Not that science will change anyone’s mind about such things, especially these days. That said, I do wonder if mainstream acceptance of BDSM would take the fun out of things like, oh, S&M Hunter.
( Poster behind the cut in case yr at work, for it is slightly naughty )
BACKGROUND: S&M Hunter is a Japanese video about a bondage superhero who uses rope kung fu to capture female gangsters. But of course.
I highly recommend the trailer (which is very NSFW).
Show me the ropes,

Men who take part may be happier, with results showing they score significantly lower on a scale of psychological distress than other men.

SPANKING ELVIS
Jul. 17th, 2008 10:15 amO, the things I find on the Internets when I’m hunting for Batman pictures.

FUN FACT: Elvis was the King. This may or may not be why.
Love me tender,
