My Favorite Decade

[Abraham Smashington]

I had the same thing happen to me, hah.

[IggytheBorg]

I was never into the Ninja Turtles all that much, so I don't know what that means. But my use of the term was definitely NOT about turtles of any kind.

Note how I adroitly avoided the easy "It was about FOXES! lulz!" joke there.

Playmates is the toy company that made Ninja Turtles and put out the craptacular Star Trek and Terminator: Salvation figures last year.

Also, I never got into Playboy as a kid, dad wasn't into it. I went from knowing nothing to Club. It was quite the eye opener.

[Ari]

I'll never forget finding my dads Playboys. I'll really never forget the Penthouses & High Societys that were with them. And I'll always treasure the porn film I found; All American Girls in Heat Part 2.

[Ed Hocken]

So that pic of you holding the playboy. Was that staged or your folks just caught you looking at them.

[Ari]

Yeah, I really don't remember the specifics of that pic. I was quite a few years older when I found the "stash".

[Ed Hocken]

Hmm, maybe your folks thought it was funny to have the little kid hold a playboy.

[Ari]

I'm fairly sure that was it, but who knows? I could have been a horny little tyke.

[Howard]

I wonder what it is in boys of a certain age that all of a sudden illuminates them to hidden stashes. Nevermind, I know the answer to that query.

I remember walking home from school one day and finding a Hustler in the street. It was as if I found gold (and I certainly treated it as such).

[Ed Hocken]

I don't think you found it to be gold once you opened that magazine.

Although at that age, I doubt you'd even know what you're looking at.

[Howard]

Which reminds me of a funny story. I was in 2nd grade (having just entered public school for the first time) and overhead the word masturbate. Got home and promptly asked my mom what masturbate meant. Got smacked on the side of my head and then got to enjoy a discussion about the merits of private school. My dad thought it was hilarious.

[Howard]

I don't think you found it to be gold once you opened that magazine.

Although at that age, I doubt you'd even know what you're looking at.

Wrong. It was indeed gold. I marveled over those pictures for hours.

[Ed Hocken]

*Backs away slowly from desk*

I think I'll just remember that Mr.Show skit about "Taint".

[Matt]

My brothers are 10 and 15 years older than me. They literally had TONS and TONS of magazines for me to look at and enjoy when I was young. God bless 'em.
