Is that another reference to one of your sex toys? If so, I need a link.

I have no idea. If you look at the "active users" list, you'll see that there are 50 or so "guests" reading ancient posts. They're spiders from the same batch of IP addresses. I've moved the thread they're looking at into a non-public forum so they'll go away and not eat up bandwidth. I've had to do this more and more over the last few months with old forums.

Sure. Just let me pack up my office first...

I write things here I'd be fired and possibly jailed for admitting/saying in public.

You do not. A scan over your history would lead to the conclusion that you are a decent, overall solid, normal guy.

A scan through mine would not.

Kissing girls who suck at guy's buttholes is not illegal, but I could see where a supervisor might not want to closely review your work product if the fact did come out.

I guess they could be search spiders. Spiders, sometimes called web crawlers, are computer programs that search engines and spammers send out to scan the internet for content. You'll see some blogs get spammed by these programs in the comments from time to time. That can't happen here because you have to register before you can comment, but it doesn't mean that the programs know that when they start scanning for content. The search engine spiders are what keep google and yahoo and the like updated on what's out there on the internet.

That, and that one female partner is going to be plenty pissed off when she learns that Sebby doesn't really enjoy going down on her.

Good spiders, like those deployed by Yahoo and Google, obey directions in coding of websites that tell them not to index the site, as is the setting on this site (as I understand it). Bad spiders, like those deployed by spammers, ignore the rules, but aren't indexing for a search engine. Instead they are looking for things that look like e-mail addresses. Fortunately, that isn't something generally posted on this site.

The fact that TM is even involved in these high level discussions and may have an impact on me frightens and confuses me.
