blog post Tonight on Appetite for Distraction: It's All Relative

The porn industry does not work in mysterious ways; actually in lots of ways it works like Saturday Night Live. Take a successful entertainment entity – be that a movie, band,  television show or personality – and find a way to create a parody with a talented group of actors.

Now before you balk at my description of porn players, ask yourself if you could do what they do. And I would argue it must be at least as tough as trying to make Megan Fox look like a worthy and funny guest host.

I suppose the tricky part is always in the writing. As I sit at my desk listening to indie rock, busy scribes are at work making This Ain’t Avatar XXX, brought to you presumably by the same people who made This Ain’t Star Trek XXX (I’d link to some screen grabs, but I really don’t want to be responsible for you looking at what I saw!)

I don’t want to seem judgmental at all since my morning is spent looking at my own porn: design blogs. I use as my definition looking at things that create extreme desire and longing. I usually first look at clothes, then some creative designs and then straight on to homes. By the end of my clicks I am desperately unsatisfied and frustrated. Ok, sure – maybe I get a few tips on how I could do things better, but in the end I know where I stand, and it’s not on the bridge of the Enterprise waiting for the photon torpedoes to launch.

I suppose it’s only a matter of time before one porn industry parodies another. All I can say is – I might not notice.

Join me today for some songs and thoughts and whatever else tickles my fancy...
