Spyware, viruses, etc.
He needed it replaced? shudder Gah!
A few years ago, back when I used to post at Smile and Act Nice, someone posted the link to the “Real Doll” site as sort of a “Weird Earl’s” type of thing. They had a guy doll, posed sitting on a couch, drinking a beer.
And as one poster put it, “I have a guy who does this already. Why would I pay a few thousand for one I have to dust?” snerk
(The scariest thing there is the body “parts.” Can we say Ed Gein?)
It’s a good thing that you reviewed every site that he had visited before deleting them… You never know what kind of sick things he might have been looking at if you didn’t do a throrough review yourself!
You buddy sounds like a sack of shit allright, and I don’t know you from Adam, but you need to tone down the bragging about your possessions. This kind of crowing makes you sound like a superficial douchebag. Just a bit of friendly advice.
I caught that your name was Adam, that was a(n obviously lame) joke. No need to apologize, -like I said, just a friendly heads-up. I have a LOT of people in my life who let me know when I’m acting like a douche. I think it’s starting to happen less…
I had a friend who had a used computer. He took it into a shop for repair and they found child porn on it. Now this guy is the biggest liar I know. But I don’t think he’d download child porn. Since he did hang out with an unsavoury crowd, it’s believable that he got a computer from one of them and that person put illegal content on it. So I’m prepared to believe he’s innocent.
That said, this is what he said happened: The computer shop called the police. The police obtained a search warrant and confiscated all of his computers. They put him under investigation. Last time I talked to him (probably three years ago) he still had not gotten his computers back. At the time the police had had his computers for over a year.
Given the amount of porn you say you found on your computer, and what you posted about the borrower, I would be very concerned at what might be on there. If there’s anything questionable on it, guess who the cops will go after? And there are the possible viruses mentioned earlier. You might want to wipe the hard drive and reinstall your OS.
I read somewhere that the most common injury to these Dolls was having one of the breasts ripped off. I shudder to think what sort of injuries they’re saving some poor real woman from…
I don’t know if there has been more than one show about these things, but I recall seeing a segment in which one of the guys became an expert at repairing the dolls and he started his own repair service. He told a story about an Asian American teenager whose parents told him to stay away from girls until he had finished college and bought him a doll hoping that it would do the trick. Apparently they sent it to the guy for repair and he said it had been so horribly “abused” that he refused to have anything to do with it.
At least with dolls they’re not potentially reproducing. Thereby reducing the population of “lisping inarticulate slack-jawed drawling six-foot-six gangling apes”
At least he said they were only dolls, and for masturbation, really. The creepy part:
when he was digging out the worn out vaginas. shudder
Random thoughts:
The Gordon guy seemed the most likely have body parts found hanging from his ceiling, ala Ed Gein or whoever. And seriously, all that whining about his looks-dude, get a makeover! A better hair cut, some nice clothes, maybe start working out, and you won’t be such so ugly. Gah.
I thought the dolls might work for fashion designers or someone like that. It occurred to me when that dude was making up the one doll for hangliding. They had the prettiest clothes. (I LOVED that little black and white sundress the one was wearing).
By the way, ever look at the website? realdoll .com? It’s a real hoot. The FAQ section especially. There’s an animation of the dolls’ breasts being squeezed.
(And apparently people sometimes ask if “second-hand” dolls are available as a cost-saving option).
ETA: Argent Towers, I hate to ask, but morbid curiosity has the better of me-does your um, ‘friend’ have a RD?
I once got an image of a topless obviously early teen girl from a decidedly non-porn newsgroup. Image was removed right quick from the group after I notified the administrator and I made sure all traces were gone from my computer.
What’s an RD? Do you mean Real Doll? No, he doesn’t have one, although I’m sure he wishes he does.
The thing about the repair guy “abusing” the real dolls sounds suspiciously like a story from the Chuck Palahniuk book Haunted. Are you sure it actually happened? Or maybe he based the story on a real incident.
I’m curious- Argent, under what circumstances do you and this guy live in the same house?
You know a lot about this guy and his parents and what have you, and you seem to HAVE to spend time or interact with him, seemingly due to one circumstance or another.
What’s the backstory?
The first thing I do whenever I let someone use one of my personal computers: create their own user account and give them their own password. Then at least their personal preferences / browsing history / whatever doesn’t interfer with my own use.
Oyh! I’m a lisping* inarticulate** slack-jawed* drawling*** six-foot-six**** gangling***** ape******! Outside! Pistols at dawn!
Was at the dentist today. Bah, humbug.
** Inarthickulashe, yoo shay? Godsshamn numnessh.
*** Godsshamn numnessh, I shay!
**** Well, six foot four.
***** My arms nearly reach my knees.
****** Damn you, Darwin!
I don’t think he said he was abusing them. Someone else said that. I think he’s said he had sex with the dolls, but he didn’t say if they belonged to the customers.
(Perhaps we should start another thread about the doc-that thing was hysterical, disturbing and depressing all at once)
