A little piece of the day

Totally unrelated to being at work but definitely related to the industry.

Today I stopped by a local hotel with a friend and saw a guy sitting on a public computer. My friend and I were chatting when another person came up and tried to sit in the chair behind the computer bench. The guy on the computer, without taking his eyes off the screen says "I wouldn't sit there, a guy pissed in it earlier."

My friend and I laughed, out loud and pontificated on what it would mean to be a person that would pee in a chair in a hotel with a bathroom maybe 20 stairs away.

We go back to our own conversation and soon one of the guys at the front comes up to where we all are and tells computer man he has to get off the computer right at that moment. Close the window and go. He says okay and takes a minute to close whatever he is doing and I find it odd but go back to my conversation again.

Later I go downstairs and ask the guy who kicked the other out what that was all about. I know the guy working here... Friends in high places ;)

Turns out the guy on the computer was watching porn. On a totally public, easily seen computer. Porn. He wasn't in a cubicle, no way to hide the images on the screen. Just sitting there, watching porn.


I mean, really? He did a pretty good job of getting the chair behind him off limits. He thought up the lie in advance probably that someone had peed in that chair earlier. Really? Or maybe he peed in it, changed his pants and came back to the computer spot to watch his porn.


I know there have been arguments and issues with people watching porn at the library. The only thing I can say about that is if the computer screen can't be seen by anyone else and the viewing of said material is not disrupting anyone else then I don't think it should be able to be stopped. I do believe in levels of security on computers for the different age ranges but besides that, if you are over 18 and no one else can see your screen AND you are not jerking off, then it's a free country, go for it, try not to have a boner (or an excited clit?) when you leave. Mostly the boner because it's more visual and there are always kids at libraries and that's disruptive.


But watching porn, not just one window either, my friend said the guy had several windows open of different porn sites. Videos I'm not sure but definitely pictures. Just vagina splayed across the screen. I guess anyone walking up the stairs, if looking at the monitor could see it.


Awesome.


I'm still laughing over his story about the chair. Genius really.


Now, go watch porn in a public place...
