Functioning in the "real" world
 

Do you ever catch yourself saying/doing things in the "real" world before you remember that you aren't among fellow pornslingers? How many times have you said something without thinking, and then realized too late that most of the people in the room don't appreciate terms like "gaping anal" or "cum guzzling jizzmop".
I swear, the longer I work in this industry, the more detached I feel from the real world and "normal" people. Lately when I go out amongst regular society, it seems that the "mainstreamers" are the weird ones and I am the only normal person in a room full of uptight freaks.
Think I need to get out more? :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Great post!

I fee you! I say "anal destruction" all the time, and catch miself saying it around family!

haha... yeah, it's especially noticeable when you get a group of webmasters together in real-world surroundings and then pay attention to the reactions from the people around us because of our normal everyday conversations. Cracks me up!

Yeah, haha..

My sense of humor has defintily gotten a more sexual flavor..
I find myself embarassed sometimes when I remember I'm not among
pornslingers :glugglug

P.S. Apparently I'm the only person who needs to get a life outside this industry :helpme

Nah, that feeling is normal - we could all need that, You'll get over it :1orglaugh :thumbsup

Haha... it's good to know I'm not the only one who's dysfunctional!

I don't think so at all. Then again...I'm pretty a normal guy...

Hehe.. let's just say that we at least aren't the majority of the Bush-voters'
favorite people - we're a bit more liberal :thumbsup

Oops, 3:22 AM here in Sweden now! Need to recover from 31-hour awake 'n
slinging the smut :1orglaugh

Nightynight :)

no, when i leave the computer i leave the pornshit behind.

there are far more important things to dabble in when away from this part of my life.

umm yeah you need to take a vacation or at least get more time away from the computer, no problems with relating with fellow people in the industry but thinking the rest of the world is weird and uptight my be a problem

Woohoo! I can break the 80-barrier before sleep! :1orglaugh

That sounds sound man.. :thumbsup
I guess it's a novelty thing, when You've been at it for as long as You prolly have..
it's just business hours and then "shop closed".

Probably easier to gain routine etc. in ones work with time.

NOW it's bedtime :)

hell, yeah. i get that, i constatntly have to check my language and keep the terms at bay, esp when kids are around.

Im with you on that.

when I turn off my laptop and enter the real life, I don`t feel the great difference between me and surroundings. Know why? "They" don`t know who are we `cause we look like them and our thoughts are not available for them :winkwink:
I just know that I`m different but porn biz doesn`t change me in the "real" world...
...maybe a little:Graucho

I tend to shy away from people who don't/can't know what I do for work, because then I always feel like I'm hiding something or have to be somebody I'm not. People who I can't be myself around tend to make me uncomfortable.
I mean, obviously I don't go out and wear a sign around my neck telling everybody what I do, but if I'm getting to know somebody, it's nice to not have to lie about stuff, ya know?

Strangely, a lot of the people I hang out with are 10 times more extreme than a lot of the people here. There's a lot of keyboard pimps and keyboard wildmen here but ya get them into the real world and they're quiet as church mice and uptight as a library worker.

Me and my mainstream freinds have been proudly gangbangin chicks since we were 15... even without a videocamera present.

I usually feel like others are less normal if I hang out with chicks from outside the industry. I think guys in the industry and out are all the same though ;)

Hey girl! How's it going? Long time no chat with!

You need a vacation

Also when you go out you leave your shop talk at home. Not a lot of people outside of this business want to hear stuff about that.

I mean really how many porn stars talk about fucking on the set when their out to dinner with family or friends...:2 cents:

You do need to get out more!

You pretty much missed the point, but you're right... I DO need a vacation!
