    Someone asks "What do you do?" - What to say?

    I've had a couple of people ask me what I do and I tell them that I do web design, web marketing, and/or webmaster. Sometimes I pray they don't ask me "Oh, what sites do you do or own?" but what do you tell them if they do ask you? Do you go straight to the point "Well, I hustle porn" or do you bullshit or say something else?

      I tell them I work in online adult or online affiliate marketing, depending on who the person is.
      The first answer always gets loads of questions and the second one usually gets a blank look.

        Programming, database work, graphics, web design, and affiliate programs like amazon.com or google ads. That usually shuts them up, way more information than they want to know.

              most people, I just tell the truth. With some (as with my best friend's overly religious mother) I just mumble something about computers and the internet until their eyes glaze over.

                  I've had a situation where before I dated my g/f she asked me what I did, I told her that I was a webmaster she said ok.... and then a couple of months she finds out that I had business with porn... she instantly had a bad impression of me because typically porn is considered "dirty" or "perverted" but then when I showed her the checks, she shutted the fuck up :D

                    I tell them I do internet marketing or video teleconferencing software technology. No matter what I tell them they usually don't ask many questions. I like to confuse them and then ask them what they do for a living. Most of the time I get a blank stare like Video Rob said.

                      "I produce, distribute, and market adult videos and other content..." followed usually by either

                      a. "you should check out this site at (insert url), I think you'd enjoy it"
                      b. " are you interested in modeling"
                      c. " no I won't give you a fucking free pass you cheap bastard."

                      Gets the job done...

                        There is one of these threads every other week it seems like... and I say "Web Developer" followed by "for a porn site" if they seem like the kind of person who isn't going to flip out.

                            Online Marketing, Search Engine Marketing ETC, if you dont want him/her to find out its porn that you market, just saying that you do SEO work for online companies is good, kinda hard to track down when you say you did some search engine optimizing for whatever.com

                              I just tell them the truth.

                              "know all those porn sites you get emails from 300 times a day?"

                              " I write the scripts that make a grown man scream.
                              I write the scripts of porn and everything.
                              I write the scripts that make a wife cry divorce.
                              You know that script I wrote. Of course. "
                              I'll fly a sig when I get damn good and ready..

                              Grab your dick and double click..

To throw together a mainstream website doesnt take much effort and when you get checks from it.Its a real suprise.

                                                              If their questions get too pointed I tell them the truth.... I own websites that run the gammut, designed to send the surfer to what they are looking for. If they want to buy stuff I direct them to online stores. If they want adult stuff there are sites in my network that point them to that stuff. And no matter where they head off to, if they buy anything be it adult or mainstream, I make money. I basically direct traffic, and am an online marketer. Period.

                                                              If that answer doesn't satisfy them then it's time to hit them with a barrage of questions about what THEY do. It's better to own the conversation rather than be owned by it.
