I have a lot of new Sex Listings online today. You may have noticed on the home page we’re doing the Twitter thing. Part of the posts are updates to the Listings that catch my eye as I edit throughout the day. You can sign up and be a "follower."
This is my favorite Listings update from today:
Pennsylvania Bentleyville: Kammerer Bookstore. Bookstore with arcade. This update from October, 2008: "Stopped here with my boss on the way home from a three-day plumbing job in Ohio. He said he was going to use the bathroom. I know what goes on there because I've been there. (No public bathroom.) Found him in a back booth with his pants down with his back to the door, one guy sucking his dick and another guy behind him with his nose up his butt. He sat down and the guy sucking, young dark-haired guy, went at it until he said, ‘I'm good.’ Next, a sixty-ish bald guy sucked him for awhile. Number three: a thirty-ish blond crew cut, blew him until he looked like he was going to shoot. But my boss stopped him when a guy he seemed to know leaned into the booth. After a little small talk (‘How's the wife?’) he got down on his knees and made him cum twice within fifteen minutes. Never said a word when he met me in the truck."
Or this comment for the same store:
I've been here many, many times and always seem to find some fun. One guy fucked my ass for a long, long time then came all over my face. I walked out with the cum still on my face.
Neat!
And this one:
North Carolina Garner: Truck stop, at I-40 and Jones Sausage Road. Cruisy parking lot and nearby woods. This update added October, 2008: "Truckers pull in and sometimes you can get lucky. Other truckers can be mean so be careful. Any time is good, early or later, just depends on traffic flow."
Jones Sausage Road? I’m sure there’s a story or reason. But you know, WTF?
From time to time I share some of the editing philosophy (I use that word generously, I know), why we try to make the Sex Listings very readable. Today is example #1,251,653 of why we edit before they go live and online:
lIVE ENTERTAINMENT MY ASS ITS MORE LIKE A LEGAL PICK AND PAY , TO BAD THE GIRLS ALL LOOK LIKE DRUG ADDICTS STORE MUST BE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE LAW HANGS OUTSIDE . FIND NEW PLAYGROUND , EVEDENTLY GETTINGRID OF THE GOOD HELP IS HER WAY OF TRYING TO IMPROVE HER BUSSINESS BUT WE ALL SEE THAT SHE IS NO GOOD BUSSINESS WOMAN INBREED BUMB BITCH CANT DEAL WITH CUSTOMERS , TREATS PEOPLE LIKE SHIT ALL. YELLSAT EMPLOYEES AND DEMOTES THEM TO DISGRACE. ONLY THIEVES APPLY SHE LIKES THAT
Easy on the eyes? No. Coherent? Borderline. And given that, useful and informative to guys wondering what they may find at this location? Not so much. The tone of it, and the three other comments submitted within days of each other that were also shrieking about ‘that fat, dumb, inbred bitch manager’, makes me think this is mostly a spat between a single customer and management. It’s entirely possible other patrons have problems with management at this bookstore and I’ll publish those comments if they seem, you know, rational and aren’t too overloaded with irrelevant personal invective -- which is not to say that I don’t like to see personality and color in comments but there’s a limit when it comes to insulting an identifiable individual unless that person is bashing, etc.
Oh, and all-caps comments just piss everyone off. Do yourself a favor and don’t use all-caps when communicating online. The overwhelming majority of people disregard or laugh at you.
Another editing insight, and one I’ve shared before, I generally can’t publish something like this even though it sounds pretty hot:
I sucked off the Latino janitor here today.
It’s a small bookstore so there’s not likely a legion of Latino janitors and this guy could be easily ID’d by his boss. We don’t want to get anyone fired.
Last editing insight, this is not useful or helpful:
There are a lot of undercover cops here.
Unless someone explains why they think this is true it’s of absolutely no use to other cruisers. I won’t go into much detail about what I consider when deciding to flag something as a ‘Heads up' since I don’t want any haters gaming it and unnecessarily scaring off cruisers from a location. But when you guys submit these things think if you were reading it with no knowledge of the location, let alone law enforcement activity, would what you’re writing be helpful or just sound vague and/or paranoid?
I don't mention these things to gripe or bitch. My point is to try and encourage comments and contributions to the Sex Listings that are going to make them as useful as possible. We want your unvarnished opinions but try and always ask yourself if what you're submitting is going to help a guy out. So help a guy out.
