  1. Why is Karma Whoring rewarded at Slashdot ? by zymano · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Why do people that have legitimate topics get censored as 'Flamebait' when talking about microsoft or comment on KDE and GNOME being more bloated than Rosey O'donell as a 'Troll'.

    Why do people that CUT AND PASTE news article get rewarded by the IDIOT moderators of this website
    with a +5 informative moderation ??

    Does anyone else wonder about these mysterious subjects ?

    Who in their right mind would pay money to Slashdot ? Very bizarre.....If you got cash to burn , how about giving it to the needy instead lazy millionaire Commander Taco.

    Jon's New Life

    Chapter One:

    Beth, the owner of the titty bar, smiled with satisfaction as she saw
    the packed house. For the past week it had been like this, and she knew
    it was because of the blonde with the huge tits. She didn't know where
    her dancers had found the blonde and really didn't care but she'd been
    surprised that this was the blonde's first time dancing topless. Even
    more amazing was the fact that the blonde's boobs were completely real
    yet they didn't sag or droop even without a bra. Instead they stuck
    straight out from her chest looking like twin missiles and the way the
    girl could make them move was astounding. Most girls with breasts that
    big had had silicone implants or desperately needed a bra to prevent
    them from sagging, especially if she was thirty-one but not Cassie. Her
    tits had the firmness of an eighteen or twenty year old!

    Beth had found it strange that the girl had seemed so embarrassed by her
    huge attributes off stage but, when dancing, she flaunted them with a
    wantonness that was utterly shameless. Not only that, but the girl knew
    how to use the dancer's poles too. She slid her pantied twat up and
    down the poles grinding and thrusting like a pro causing many men to
    have bulging erections. For someone with no experience as a topless
    dancer Cassie seemed to instinctively know what to do to turn on the men
    watching her. Not only that but she pranced and strutted her stuff with
    confidence and poise atop high heels that most women would barely be
    able to walk in much less dance in!

    She worked all night wearing platform heels which, in itself, wasn't
    unusual except that hers had two inch platforms with NINE inch stiletto
    heels! The other dancers told Beth that Cassie didn't even own heels
    lower than five inches high which probably explained her incredible
    agility atop the platformed heels. Cassie was five foot six and again
    Beth had thought it unusual that a girl of her height would wear five
    inch heels when not working but she seemed completely at ease on them.

    Arriving at work, Cassie was always wearing the most provocative and
    sexy outfits, outfits that were so revealing and shameless that they
    left her exposed in ways that were barely legal. However, for someone
    who dressed to attract attention, Cassie seemed almost ashamed and
    definitely embarrassed by the extent of her exposure. In fact, there
    were times Cassie appeared humiliated by her attire, her eyes looking
    haunted and tormented but she always had a sexy smile on her face and
    giggled and simpered like a teenager while flaunting her charms
    deliberately in between her sets. Like the other girls Cassie was
    expected to mingle with the customers while the other girls performed.
    Lap dances were often requested and were a great source of additional
    tips for the girls and Beth allowed her girls to sit and socialize with
    patrons.

    Beth was well aware that a lot of her customers tried to cop a feel now
    and then but she left it up to the individual girl as to whether she
    wanted to allow a man certain liberties. Cassie was the boldest of the
    girls permitting men to paw and grope her while acting coy and demure,
    an act that the men loved. While Cassie was saying no with her words
    her body language said otherwise. It was obvious from Cassie's hard
    protruding nipples and damp panties during her set that she had become
    aroused and excited from the hands-on attention she received in between
    her dance sets.

    While Beth did not promote sex between her dancers and customers, she
    didn't preclude it either as long as the girls were discreet and did it
    outside of the club. If Cassie wanted to be felt up, stroked and
    petted, Beth didn't have a problem with it but again, Beth had noticed a
    look of torment and anguish in Cassie's eyes as men played with her. It
    was almost as if she was being forced to do something so repulsive and
    disgust

    This has nothing to do with anything remotely Slashdot related, but I need to do something before my head explodes...

    As I type this, my roomate and my best friend/recent lover are fucking in the next room over. WHAT THE FUCK. After 10 years of friendship and built-up sexual tension, we finally hooked up and now less than a week later she's banging my roomate. I am so fucking incensed right now I can't think straight. I wouldn't mind if they went to a hotel or otherwise didn't make it known, but she just FUCKING WALKED PAST MY ROOM TOPLESS AND SHUT THE DOOR IN MY FUCKING FACE. How fucking insensitive can you be?!

    This sucks. It's 3AM and I'm telling strangers (GEEK strangers, no less) about my personal problems. I am a big pussy and will most likely not say anything to either one of them so I expect this to go on for a while. Fuck.

    Feeling low? There's someone else out there that's having a worse day than you. Trust me.

      Get really hammered, I mean like half a bottle of hard core cheap ass vodka hammered. Then knock and proposition a three way.

      If it doesn't come off, complain about your headache the next day and act like you can't remember anything. In fact, you may want to do that even it does come off. But it's worth a shot, buddy, way better than complaining to us.

      bad shit man. But next time don't store it up for 10 years - way too much investment in an uncertain outcome. Prehaps a hooker and some coke will ease the pain ??

    Some creativity would be required when posting these again and again, next time change a few wordings and add more superlatives?-)
